9. Wow.

That's absolutely nauseating -- racially, logically, and grammatically.

This country really is on a crumbling precipice in so many ways.

4. That sentence doesn't make a fucking lick of sense

They're a member of an individual that thinks they're uppity.

Just come out and say it, Lynn. You're gonna sound like a fucking idiot till you just open your shithole mouth and let the filth spray out.

7. In Westmorland's case walking on two legs is uppity.

8. It sounds like Ms. Westmoreland is a white person who thinks that's elitie

Why didn't she just use a word that rhymes with bigger?
