     Yes there are plenty of paint programs...  as to the memes...   
      
     Not seen any of them nor do I wish too.  'The war' was a bunch of   
   jackasses who decided they were going to "leave the governement" and   
   start their own, which always eventually would lead to a coupe.   
   Sorry but that ain't happenin'.  The idiots 'of the south' are as   
   fucked in the head now as they ever were then, and y'all dumb   
   motherfuckers need to get off the stupid bandwagon and fucking DROP   
   IT.  You lost.  Your retarded cause was NOT ONE.  You deserved to   
   lose.  If your mindset still lingers on it, you dumbfucks need to   
   lose AGAIN.  Goddamned white supremecists are the most retarded fucks   
   ever.   
      
     Makes me ashamed to be 'white'.  If anone needs to go in order to   
   make the world civil again, it ain't 'the Jews' and 'the Blacks' or   
   any other stupid shit bouncing around in your brains...  It is YOU WS   
   dumbfucks that need to be in a lye pit or fed to the gators.   
      
     (when I say 'you' it is not to the poster I responded to.  Unless   
   he is one of them, of course)
