Prove it, Twat.  Until then I assume you're still LYING.

Ah yes, the ole "graphics and hypertext links" excuse--good call!! Oh by 
the way, why the mother fuck am I reading an article about UCLA put out 
by the "John Locke Foundation:"

 > The John Locke Foundation is an independent, nonprofit think tank 
working for truth, freedom, and the future of North Carolina.

This just reeks of Oath Keeper horseshit.  Or even horsehit (sic) if you 
prefer.

Sorry, I read the article and you're still full of horsehit.  There were 
no pertinent quotes and what the fuck this has to do with "the future of 
North Carolina" is still a glaring question.  Everything about your post 
and this article stinks to high heaven.

And boom goes the dynamite.  Even before googling I knew innately the 
"Free Beacon" was right wing horsehit:


The Washington Free Beacon
The Washington Free Beacon is an American conservative political 
journalism website launched in 2012. Wikipedia
Founders: Matthew Continetti, Michael Goldfarb, Aaron Harrison
Editor-in-chief: Eliana Johnson
Headquarters: Washington, D.C.
Managing editor: Sonny Bunch, Victorino Matus, Stephanie Wang
Political alignment: Conservative

Near as I can tell the "Free Beacon" was looking for something to piss 
and moan about, as evidenced by the word "conservative."  But, to 
repeat,what the motherfuck this has to do with the "John Locke 
Foundation" is anybody's guess.  Rather than "the future of N. Carolina" 
it's more like "we'll pitch a bitch about anything we've heard from 
other "conservatives" pitch a bitch about."  This stuff starts out as 
fucking garbage and gets worse from there.  The "conservative" 
technique: find some horseshit (correct spelling) to whine about and 
flood any and all forms of media with it.  There is no other motivation, 
or semblance of sanity here.  Now be a good boy and fuck all the way 
off.  You're busted on multiple counts of horseshit.
