Wicked N*P people. Because he campaigning against you. Seriously though, it gone that far. First M*** trying to hurt Shane by cancelling the $92,000 bribe contract because he wouldn't turn his back on the VIP, now this. For goodness sake. After politics we are all one people, one family.
Stop looking to cause problems!
