All we need to do is tell these young men stop the bullsh*t they see on American TV and all will be well.
I wonder if people are wilful with always using "Deeds" instead of "These" THAT SH*T CRAWLS MY BLOOD!!
Excuse me, but can anyone translate this language for me please?
Thanks you very much. And here I thought we spoke English in the BVI. Silly me.
I FEEL FOR THEIR PARENTS...DO GOOD AND IT SHALL RETURN!!!!
@ Yep
Lolol lord you sound like a born fool, just like the rest. When you don't have much sense is a terrible thing. Why would anybody be jealous of somebody who can't even walk the street without looking over they shoulder wondering who coming to KILL them...you must be mad! This isn't the first time for that boy, this time they cetch him but not in the way they wanted. What exactly does that tell you dummy? Aint that they will come again another time when he least expect & maybe then you would be preparing to wear your black, my God you ppl are foolish. All the boat, bike & cars ppl buying & flaunting end of the day they can't fully enjoy none nor rest comfortably with themselves. Who wants that type of life? Maybe you and the rest of these hooligans round the place.
I want to work for an honest dollar like I currently doing & live a simple life. I don't have none of what you mentioned and I'm not worried either. Yes I would like to get me a lil vehicle to move around but I'm not about to do nothing illegal to get it. If it means continuing to save up the pennies & loose change I have around the house plus some from my paycheck & eventually a lil loan then so be it. I know I will sleep very comfortable at night knowing nobody planning to end my life over it.
really? where do you live? Good youth, please. You are a bad liar
However, just up to yesterday I had several run-ins with this young man on a 4 wheel scooter (don't know the name). Was living quite dangerously, and trying to get drivers in trouble. Hope his parents speak to him and ask him to chill.
By the way why BVI want to be so much like States versus UK? Even the political colors are same as US. We are quickly losing our culture and politics is the reason why? Truly misleading?
There is one slim dumb police woman who hang out with them rats and support them. She is a police and anti-police. The watchman is worst than the thief. No wonder...
who dont hear will feel
Don't be sorry for the p****s let them buy that one too like everything else
We can't afford to loose another good pen i$
