Give the address as a vacant lot or a city park, see who shows up. Just to mess with their heads.

they go even lower--lining the pockets of red don at the same time they're destroying the separation of church and state and promulgating christofascism. Jesus recoils.

What a bunch of maroons. Unfortunately, evil, dangerous maroons.

That money could be better spent on children’s books and classroom supplies. And you know whose pocket benefits from the sale of these fake blasphemous bibles.

I hope these officials face the wrath of voters for wasting money on a scam Bible.
