I don't get it.

But I don't have to.

We have a new thing now, called "think before you open your mouth."

And for those who don't, thanks for the memories...but I'm not going to use the money I normally use for rent, for gas in my car, for food on the table, to send flowers to someone who spoke and realized the consequences later.

Free speech? Hell yes. But I can think of a hundred people more deserving of "flowers."

For everyone else, whip out those gold cards and shower her with roses. How you spend your money is none of my business.
