Exhibit 5a | Creative Disobedience

I apologize that my posts have been so politically motivated over the last few weeks.

Everyone knows about Wal-Mart’s policy of basically screwing their workers. They pay poverty level wages without benefits, lock people into the store at night, and hire illegal workers, all in the name of low, low prices for the consumers.

Over the past year legions of Pastafarians have been storming the planet, raping and pillaging the good Christians of the world with wit and logic. Well, the fundies aren’t gonna take it anymore.
