    Not only is this story lame, but it also fails to ask the right questions.

    Greasings, motherfscking "citizens" of the United States of (Ignorance And Sufficiency-Induced) Obesia.

    So you spent your globally warmed July 4th grilling dead-genetically-ill-creatures and waving those formerly-seens-as-cute China-made plastic flags?

    How does it feel to be someone's tool?

    Face it: you failed it.
