From your link:

The company's website says "Non Sequitur" appears in more than 700 newspapers.

Who's a snowflake?


It says a lot about you that you apparently see no issue in telling the President of the United States -- whoever he may be -- to go "409" himself in a comic strip that is presumably read by children.


Stay classy, leftists.

It says a WHOLE lot more that you read into my post what isn't even there.

There's no mention of this "409" you speak of in the OP's link and I didn't reference it.

Carry on.

But I'd drop my local paper if they engaged in such picayune censorship.
