The John Birch Society?? (4.00 / 3)
Are they still around? I remember them from the 1960s. Well, if they oppose S. 510, then I guess it must clearly be a Communist conspiracy. What a frickin' bunch of idiots.

hahaha (4.00 / 2)
I know! I was somewhat shocked on that one. I guess they eat too. Or maybe in this case they are on the side of the E coli?
