I remember making a rose like ;- in 2002... Good old days

Mexico is responsible for this...

This bicycle belonged to one of my daughters who was murdered.. Iall the personell on summit avenue and Presidio street were murdered when they tried to report the murder of the daughter of Martha Ramsey. Our daughter ..they are all dead now.

This is the twin tower prison in fort worth where they are leaving at will..they did this when Kennedy was murdered . They did this when my mother Elizabeth Taylor was murdered.

Mexico has invaded the united states and our citizens are being murdered.

There are animals birds and insects who are human and able to speak.. I am their sole means of origin... all came from me..don't you think I should get paid for it? I'm still homeless and penniless. I. Very often a murder target..

The aqueen might have kept silent all the years of her reign.. but she could not keep silent anymore when this red haired Irish fellow goes militant, coming to the united States to murder my daughters... she was murdered herself...

We were initially facing ISIS of Africa.. now we face Mexico murdering americans extermination style . Millions are dead and many are being impersonated from the dead..

Emojis have been a thing since the ancient times.. just not digital 😁

Well back in 1974 my pals and I drew them in actual postal mail. Wrote few letters without a pen-inked emoji. Just faces tho.
