My Thanksgiving gift to Paradise residents!

Post by _Jersey Girl »

Okay people. This is the only gift I have to offer this Thanksgiving. Those of you who are caught up in the back and forth with the Smokes. I have reason to believe you're being punk'd.

Read his sig line.

You're welcome folks and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Even in satire, there can be too much of a bad thing.

If that's the defense, then it would help to have made points in the first place.

His signature line is a talisman that he thinks protects him from hate speech laws. The content of his posts is definitely not satire. His signature line, like most of what he posts, is a calculated lie.

Thanks, Smokey. Ours was excellent. But then, we didn’t have anyone who used our family gathering as an opportunity to preach the gospel of Jew hatred.

Perhaps someone in your family can explain to you one day how discussing history is important and those that don’t learn from it are destined to repeat it.
