This reminds of something: In 249 BC the romans were battling Carthago, as tradition the romans offered some chickens some grains. If the chicken ate the grain the romans would win, if they refused the romans would lose. The chickens refused to eat. This annoyed the roman general Publius Claudius Pulcher who threw the chickens overboard while saying "Bibant, quoniam esse nolunt" ("Let them drink, since they don't wish to eat").

So Sideshow Bob was right in a completely literal sense when he said some people want to be ruled like a king?

Oh, but I guess he said "deep down" not so clearly on the surface like we saw in the election.

If it continues long enough, even a reign of terror may become a fondly remembered period. People believe they want justice and wise government but, in fact, what they really want is an assurance that tomorrow will be very much like today.

Denmark, a country where they recently passed a law that allowed the police to confiscate any valuables refugees take with them when they enter the country, is considered so lenient towards immigration by Garrison that he renames it Somalia.

Trump hung that sign up the day he became president, and it hung over that bar every day until he took it down a little over two years ago. Know why he took it down? He started letting in dogs. Now Trump like just about everybody, but he sure don't like Mexicans or Muslims.

Is this an edit or was it actually published anywhere?

At any rate, I take some small comfort that when Lester, McCoy, or Ramirez croak, no one in the US will care. Though Ted Cruz might share a quick tear via Twitter when Branco bites it.

And even if false, some dumb rich house wife just trying to give cakes out to people out of the naive ,yet possible kindness of her heart is better than the "POOR PEOPLE DESERVE TO SUFFER" mentality of the current self stylized aristocracy.

It's would be better than what Marie Antoinette actually did, which was pissing away the money on gambling and a village where she could cosplay as a poor peasant.
