If whiskey was in the form of music, Amen corner would look a whole lot different. It's a skin declaration. Truth is a monochromatic cry. Simplestilskin.10 years ago

thats how original moonshining works. People would just sing soulfully next to various plants and vegetables very soulfully and then bam, whiskey.11 years ago

People say there is a RACE problem. People say this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY and ONLY into white countries. People say the only solution to the RACE problem is if EVERY and ONLY white countries “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites But if I tell the truth about the ongoing program of genocide against White people, Anti-Whites agree that Iam anaziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white Northwest Front.org11 years ago
