[@LawandOrder-fi5xk]

Guns aren't the problem, it's his own people. Recall Bragg, James, Gonzalez, and Clark. Make Adams a one term mayor. Bring back Stop and Frisk.

[@Boyhowdy875]

If guns were illegal, you think criminals wouldn't still have guns? Are you lying to yourself or to me?

Who shat ya..seperate the weak from the Ops ah: Biggie Smalls

[@Boyhowdy875]

See this is the kind of thing to hold you back. You are the ones who refused to integrate into decent society, not do drugs, do well in school, not do crime, not do violence, speak intelligent English. Refused to take personal responsibility for your actions, always blaming somebody else for your criminality. Criminality, that's a big word, do you know what that means?

[@runwayray]

They’ll get arrested then released.
