can create reality but the reality is that we are becoming more emboldened.
Raised to fight for all that is right.

They will not control the minds of the people for much longer. Their game clock
is running down and the fat lady is getting warmed up.

It's up to us to block that last second shot attempt.

OK team..... hands in the middle...... TRUTH on three.

1....2....3!
