The Blasphemous Star-Spangled Fish
April 4, 2013
For the ultimate Christian warmonger, there is the star-spangled fish. According to USAFish.com, “The Star-Spangled Fish® is inspired by the Christian values that uphold our great nation. The emblem is a symbolic reminder of the sacrifice Jesus made to save us and of the sacrifices made by all the brave patriots who have kept the USA free from tyranny and oppression.”
The USA is a nation of tyranny and oppression. I think the brave patriots have been too busy fighting foreign wars. (Thanks to John Lofton)
