    Anybody got a source on that quote? Looked for a minute but didn’t find proof he said that. Chuck is a dumbass and those sentiments are echoed here, but this kind of seems like a fake meme quote to me. Please provide a source if I’ve missed it!

      Spoiler: It’s a humorous text

      But it’s… well it’s something…

      If I’m elected president, I will…

      […]

      Bring on Donald Trump as my apprentice. When my presidential term is complete and he has obtained his black belt, or whichever comes first, he can buy the White House and of course rename it (to, what else, “The Trump House”).

      Create new immigration legislation: to deport all liberals (then force them to listen to Bill O’ Reilly every day for five years, at which point they may return).

        Require Bill Gates and Warren Buffet to personally pay for national, comprehensive medical coverage for every American.

        Chuck Norris is a Socialist he’s just too dumb to realize it.

        Weird that he’s ok with taxing billionaires so they can provide universal health care. I see this was in 2007, so when Obama proposed it in 2009, I’m sure he did a complete 180.

      OP doesn’t care about the truth, only finding reasons to be outraged. Take everything they post with a huge grain of salt.

      They were both famous around the same time, had similar followings and Lee was an atheist.

      Norris won a martial arts tournament, and Lee invited him to be the last or second to last boss fight of a movie he was working on, it’s how Norris got famous, in the film Lee beats him, idk. I thought it was just a pop culture reference.

        Norris and Lee sparred a few times off camera. Norris said of the experience, “I only ever touched him because he let me.”

    He also has some supplement brand that him and his kid sell that he claims cured his wife after she was poisoned by an MRI or something like that. Don’t quote me on it. That’s just what I remember from his trash youtube ads.

        365 days in a normal year, even 73 weeks a year… make Leap Day a special case that’s never part of a week (ie. week ends, Leap Day, next week starts) and that’d be quite nice. I’d also want to fix time units on a smaller scale but the 60/60/24 may have additional issues with replacing.

    That’s a great way for ol’Chuck Norris to finally put those jokes to rest when he messes with the wrong atheist.

      Nope, American exceptionalist Supremacist drit. You get the American flag and reference to the American god stamped on your head./s

      The world would be so better off if the dystopia would just Balkanize already. Saying that as an American.
