Ashley Babbitt ring any bells? That's a preview of any so-called civil war. But this time, let's get the fucking traitors behind it and put them in prison. Maybe one of those private prisons they are so fond of.

I was confused at first, thinking of Lorena Bobbitt. Wait... I'm not sure that's the right plan. Oh, Babbitt, yeah, fuck those fuckers.
