God created each one of us with a light inside. I’ve had sex with all kinds of people, every single person has a kind of beam inside that shines once they are touched properly.

Violence and resistance are the only answer. Empire has to feel pain or it will never stop devouring you. It is only when a gun is put in a person's face that anything changes
