They like to steal, break into people’s cars and homes so let them kill one another. Make laws harsh for them too. More stop and searches more raids at known weed spots. police have bad man friends they get a likkle thimg from. People at the port a get a likkle thing to let thimgs slide.

@ Sherfield Bowen Shot
Why don’t you get a life. You must be one of the biggest idiot on planet earth
@SHERFIELD BOWEN SHOT TESSA BARTHLEY. Somehow you seem to rather conveniently forget that Bowen was in the ABLP camp when this unfortunate incident happened and that the victim was an ABLP supporter. In other words, this was an all ABLP affair and if I were you, I would keep quiet about it.
Zackie, I rest my case. @ Bowen Shot Tessa doesn’t really know his ass from his elbow. He imight not even know it was Lester Bird that encouraged Bowen to come back home and after he realized how the corrupt the Party was he jump ship. The idiot isn’t even aware of that. Lester had even threatened to thump him in his mouth after he started exposing them
