What a bull...how dare u tell us the president is concerned or whatever shit
u connotate about the affairs of our heroes after ordering their massacre
whilst wasting our minimal state resources in cuba. we are not stupid
mr.T...., we do know what it takes to be concerned and we certainly
comprehend when we are faced with the devil in her true colors. In a
mandingo saying "buu kuu sumunalaa"...literary speaking, ur master is just
telling the gambian people, I KILL UR KIDS AS PROMISED SO WHAT.. we will get
him fairly and independently. I hope he will have an excellent explanation
when when the right time comes.
