With mugs like that, one of them won't be hard to find. Have you ever hear about hear cut?
We need to clamp down on that. Imagine if the students of Elmore Stoutt High School were outside on lunch at that time.
I know there are exceptions, but parents are responsible for a lot of things the children are doing today. Take time and raise your children well and teach them good moral standards and values.
as demonstrated by their pracice of " hiding," the names photos and description of crinaks,known and/ or suspected. A factor which has contributed to the alarmingly g amount of " unsolved" crimes of which 100+ are murders.
It would be a great service to these VI ,if names and photos of illegal immigrants that have been ordered to leave be publicly displayed..some have been ordered to depart more than once andcontinue their illegal stay and illegal crimes. There is a Vincentian in D1 but sans a photo and a real name,reporting his continued presence and his frequent theft and trespassing in addition to menacing and threats.he is undefeated and reporting to the authorities is problematic.
Neither the YT man past or present nor the UK can mash up like thy do.These published faces confirm fears ,stereotypes and ultimate
outcomes.
Hurts to know these young guys got guns no money and we cant grow a weed plant by law legally to allow both young & old to steer clear of all the foolish drama on the street.
What are they fighting for?? Dumb hot heads heating up the environment never mind global warming.
Going to jail or dead & hunted for someone you dont like think about it.
You could be liming on the beach or riding up n down. Nope they are on the run thats no fun! Only one could pull the trigger or two of them were shooting? One has it easier. Then again they didnt catch that one who killed the soldier in the club and ran away.
