If that is not enough reason to rip this U.S. Government apart limb by limb. Remember this. The U.S. Government is also the greatest purveyors of drugs, and all activity that comes with it. The greatest purveyors of all levels of prostitution, child prostitution and pedophilia. Here is plenty of that proof. read full story / add a comment

Be sure to teach you children and grandchildren that. Hopefully we can internationally shut down Johnson and Johnson. I do hope the people rise up and fight like hell against this U.S. government and others like this one. That is our only hope. read full story / add a comment
