[@MIXTAB1]

@@mattiassvanberg9161 he’s the shining example of a role model, I’d gladly show my kids Sammy. We all have a past. to me Sammy represents what it is to be a man. I believe him, he’s without a doubt a man of his word, he’s without a doubt driven, passionate, and strong as Bull😎 a man’s man. Dedicated to family, honestly one of the most dedicated dudes I’ve ever seen when it comes to family, wether it’s family or, the family. mentally he’s unbelievably tough, 22 years in prison with 6-7 of those in the hole, and he comes out practically unfazed, he wouldn’t let the system break him. He’s never used drugs. He’s friendly and talkative, clearly he’s confident, and above all, after living the life he led, he managed to turn it around. Then quits smoking after like 60 years….. He’s a prime example of what it is to be a good man, he stands by his word and actions like an unmovable statue. To me that’s honorable and admirable. Is even say he’s extremely loyal. for real✌️ a legitimate tough guy willing to kill or be killed for the people he loves. Sammy is the definition of a role model ✌️
