Oh, wow. Dont try to spin this shyt on me man....what you're perpetuating and promoting is dangerous rhetoric my guy. I'm just going to assume it's out of ignorance and not intentful. You cant be posting dumb shyt like this, its lurkers who really wanna know wassup that absorb this type shyt.

You gotta be more careful breh, unless you're what you're tryna project me to be.
