The usual "reliable but anonymous" sources have told our intrepid
reporter
that these weren't fans of drab Gray the wonder Schlock, and that they
didn't trust government water as it was part of the cliches of
totalitarian socialism.

You see, when one is hammered by the cliches of totalitarian
socialism, one either buys into the schlock and repeats it and quickly
forgets anything rational except taking gray schlock, out for a "walk"
so s/he/it can relieve him/her/itself by dropping his cliches of
totalitarian socialism as well as that day's excrement on other
people's property and lives.

Even the army of the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics,
Communist China, and the National Socialist German Workers' Party
(more cliches of totalitarian socialism) are reluctant to try and fill
drab gray, the wonder schlock, with any more cliches of totalitarian
socialism.
 
Of course, what was needed was the right of self-defense - but the
socialists didn't want anyone that would compete with their mass
slaughter - to rescue the hundreds of millions injured and dead in the
drive to bring new
and magnificant cliches of totalitarian socialism to their horrid
realities.
That is why they disarmed their victims, fearing even that form of
private property right.

from standing in line for toilet paper rations, the dream of every
socialist mother and father who want their children to grow up and be
Joseph "The no Software Schlock" Stalin, the man who caused the
greatest tragedy, starvation, and slaughter, alongside Communist China
and the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
 
Other than that . . .
