Waiting for Bezos to replace his name with something less offensive.
Up here, people love Trump flags and huge Trump signs. Apparently, it’s to trigger snowflakes. Now I bet their Redskins apparel will be coming out

Just last week Freepers were boycotting the Numbskull Fool's League because it enables American hating ghetto trash to get rich.

Why the Redskins but not the blackhawks or Cleveland Indians or Atlanta Braves?
Its like they only want one particular scalp...
Already ordered some shirts a few days ago.
Allegedly they are on the way.
Well see....
