What is wrong with these young people
Nobody should be caught with a firearm in this day and age especially since they are being apprehended so fast. I hear guns are sold for 200 and 400 in Antigua. Is that trie?
He must pay for his crimes, 5 years in prison is fine.
You do the crime you have to pay for the crime.
One by one. They are all falling. But remember we are sometimes checking the wrong places…. Where are the guns taken from the streets going?
