Turning into Jonathan’s site lol
The ocean city cops on the boardwalk are hero’s … don’t take anything off the ignorant racist blacks that break laws and resist arrest
To June 14. 2021 At 4:56 Pm, You apparently are a RACIST!
9:53
How is 4:56 racist? In fact, if stating fact is a racist statement, then I guess I side with him and am guilty.
To June 15 at 9:53 am. You must think that everyone that tells the truth about black thugs is racist. Why don,t you just stfu. Better yet, paint your face black and join them
9:53….. wonder where you picked up on the term racist, whatever it means? Certain element ( damorats & blacks ) have unfortunately ran with the word and wore it out to the point it means nothing. I’m sure “they” will consider my humble opinion racist too, so I’ll be glad to accept that because I’ve been persuaded by the same folks to be that way. I never was, but if everything one does is racist I’m guilty as all of us. Solution would be to get employment and enjoy life. Get out of the government trough, it gives you too much time on your hands.
Some real racists white people around here!
