This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

  2. War on Terror - PATRIOT Act, or whatever its current incarnation is

And increase incarceration of certain people to expand legal slavery under the 13th amendment.

expand legal slavery

Maybe in some states, but in many (most?), they just become a burden on taxpayers.
