If we had just let them eat the Tide pods, none of this would be happening right now

Wow! That's spectacular.
I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.

Wow.  The hi-rez image is absolutely stunning.  And the images used to make that one picture were taken back in 1979.  Can you imagine the sort of pictures we could get if we send a Son-of-Voyager mission out now?
