Expose the real WMDs – my fists and feet.

wait if I am a non american atheist can I get my own country's flag instead of Muricah?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Nope, American ~~exceptionalist~~ Supremacist drit. You get the American flag and reference to the American god stamped on your head./s

The world would be so better off if the dystopia would just Balkanize already. Saying that as an American.

Wow did he really say that? He instantly went from 0 to 100 on the asshole scale. I'll definitely spread the word.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He wrote it in a tongue-in-cheek article.

I don't like the guy, but I read the article and I chuckled a couple of times.

Chuckle Nortis

Don't know if he said that, but he is a conservative piece of shit.

Such a good movie!

I remember watching it as a kid and being like "is that chuck Norris?"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

If I was president I would make Tuesdays a holiday

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

If I was president I’d pull anything he’s ever “acted” in citing it’s a form of abuse.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

If I was president I would make all automatic checkouts illegal unless they provide a discount to the customer for using them oh and all those stupid one way barriers at the entrances of storrs must be smashed with hammers

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

That's a great way for ol'Chuck Norris to finally put those jokes to rest when he messes with the wrong atheist.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Anyone remember when he preyed on the greatest fears of Christians to manipulate the vote by implying that Obama is the Antichrist?

Wooo, thats a dusty comment section! Didnt know chuck had drank so much of the kool-aid. Thanks for sharing.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

A religious dumbass would oppress and attack others? Shocker.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Anybody got a source on that quote? Looked for a minute but didn't find proof he said that. Chuck is a dumbass and those sentiments are echoed here, but this kind of seems like a fake meme quote to me. Please provide a source if I've missed it!

Spoiler: It's a humorous text

But it's... well it's something...

If I'm elected president, I will…

Bring on Donald Trump as my apprentice. When my presidential term is complete and he has obtained his black belt, or whichever comes first, he can buy the White House and of course rename it (to, what else, "The Trump House").

Create new immigration legislation: to deport all liberals (then force them to listen to Bill O' Reilly every day for five years, at which point they may return).

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Jesus. The foreshadowing with trump. Chuck is cray cray.

Require Bill Gates and Warren Buffet to personally pay for national, comprehensive medical coverage for every American.

Chuck Norris is a Socialist he's just too dumb to realize it.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

This isn't even Socialism, this is just a basic provision against being a Dystopia.

Require Bill Gates and Warren Buffet to personally pay for national, comprehensive medical coverage for every American

Weird that he's ok with taxing billionaires so they can provide universal health care. I see this was in 2007, so when Obama proposed it in 2009, I'm sure he did a complete 180.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Thanks for providing this. Very well might be the source of the quote based on the date published.

Also worldnetdaily.com is known for promoting falsehoods and is considered a hate group so I think there's still a decent chance that even that article linked isn't a real quote from Norris, though it might be since he was self-promoting via "Chuck Norris facts" for a while.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I don't think he quite realizes tattoos can be modified... or removed. It'd be easy to have it modified to be the American flag on fire and the text disparaging their vile deity.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, continue destroying that forehead.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

I ain't got a fivehead for nothin

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

He also has some supplement brand that him and his kid sell that he claims cured his wife after she was poisoned by an MRI or something like that. Don't quote me on it. That's just what I remember from his trash youtube ads.

What does Bruce Lee have to do with this?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

He mentions Bruce Lee in the same post.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Water can flow or it can crash....become water, my friend.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Norris won a martial arts tournament, and Lee invited him to be the last of second to last boss fight of a movie he was working on, it's how Norris got famous, in the film Lee beats him, idk. I thought it was just a pop culture reference.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Norris and Lee sparred a few times off camera. Norris said of the experience, "I only ever touched him because he let me."

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Well, yeah... Chuck is about as formidable as soft cheese.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

They were both famous around the same time, had similar followings and Lee was an atheist.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Known Atheist, could beat the living shit out of Chuck Norris... had it filmed once.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Herald for a fascist theocracy.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Mandatory forehead tattoos? I dunno, sounds suspiciously like the Mark of the Beast™

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Naw, the mark of the beat is donned willingly. Most of the ones I see are red hats that say "Make America Great Again" in white text.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

It makes them easy to separate for entry upon the short bus 😁

Remember that movie where Bruce beat the crap out of chuckie?
