“I wouldn’t be encouraging it because if it’s a violation of law, I can’t be encouraging a violation of law,”...
I wonder he really means laws that everyone breaks so its ok to break them, or if there’s another secret decoder ring at the bottom of the next box of Trix. That shit is toxic waste but the decoder rings are worth the price of proper disposal.
