I'm gonna guess this was the result of a shady card deal gone bad. They thought they were getting a mint original Japanese Ancient Mew, and were given a Chinese forgery instead. These card wars are getting dirty. |

Unless you know what to look for, you'll easily get jewed out of something you thought would be worth money that would be worth pennies. Gotta catch'em all! |

If you sold me a replica exotic car as if it were the real deal, I'd be seriously pissed, but I wouldn't be running around with guns to Bullrun threatening to "kill the competition". |

I mean, look at the gaming community, some stay up for days on end and die, let alone die in a cyber cafe, also not including the random kids who go violent over losing a random MP match and just gotta seek revenge. (Some kid hacked up another kid with a saw, i believe it was his friend as well, over a video game) Humans are animals, we should all remember this. lol |

I thought it was common sense to do your trolling outside of social media, but he troll himself for getting butthurt about being banned from a fb-group. |

Looked at Op's article Then looked at Image size reduced, original size: 800 x 533. Click here to view the image in its original dimension. How credible was the op's link again? | ||||

Hiretsuna rōjin Group: Advanced Members Posts: 6,779 Member No.: 16,670 Joined: Mar 16th 2006 Location: Montreal | can someone please tell me why i don't find this surprising? its the latest fad in America, have a grudge? and access to weapons? and bingo the crazy people have a horrible solution for it. the gun situation is just horrible in America and there are no controls anyone is willing to listen to and apply. it seems everyone is desensitized to this horrible trend and refuses to to see the folly that is happening before their very own eyes. its a good thing those 2 got stopped before they could do any damage but whose to say the next instance of gun violence will result with no innocent casualties. this is not the first nor will it be the last such instance someone will try to use weapons on innocent people. i just pray that no one will ever be hurt in the future by such people. |
