Know Your Firearm Fondlers: State Rep. John “Larry” Mitchell [UPDATE]: Larry Sees the Light

Song Of The Day: Feb. 25, 2018
Heard this song on XPN yesterday, really liked it. At first, I thought it was Todd Rundgren, but it wasn't. It was from another Philly-based legend, though. For some reason,…
The NRA Loves School Shootings
Dana "Super Hot Mom" Loesch tried to score points the other day by claiming the media "loves" school shootings because they like grieving white moms. She claimed it's good for…
