Hasn’t Muir been cancelled yet?
He MUST be cancelled!
I heard he looked at a slave once.
He also started all those Bigfoot stories by running around barefoot in the woods.
I’m not kidding!
Look at the size of his feet!
It is nice to joke about Mr. Muir’s looking but I would feel much better if the MRTZ PD exercise some undercover surveillance of visitors. They would not need be blacks as there were many whites miscreants vandalizing in Portland. Look how meek and docile WC PD reacted to the vandalizing in WC!
