Bigots dump dog at shelter just for being queer

C’mon, he didn’t bite anyone, all he did was hump another male dog. What’s wrong with that? Talk about “woke.” Well, that’s stiff-necked North Carolinians for you. Probably Trump voters, too. Anyway, Fezco is here (read story here). Wherever he ends up, he’l[...]
