  1. These are dangerous people the “DESECRATERS”, they cannot be trusted. It’s time for Ige to reach between his legs!

  2. It’s not even a bullet hole! It was created by someone from the INSIDE of the observatory swinging the door open too hard and slamming it into an intake manifold on the wall.

  3. Well, you are the only one of the two who decided who to blame, and call a group of people dangerous, based on zero evidence.
