Dear Class,
this tough old hombre went out doing & being something good with his life, always, regardless of all always. It takes all kinds of courage to stand up and defend other peoples, always. So, there is positivity to what he decided to do & stand for, always. It’s the old Superman move, man.
This guy whom struck him has an amazing good haircut & hygiene, wow. He looks a bit traumatized from the incident, & remorseful.
So, ..all peoples stand for something good in their life, always, regardless of all always. This case is an example of how bad it gets when peoples are focused on money, they do crazy things sometimes, the tunnel vision of money as motive makes peoples do crazy things sometimes.
There might be an afterlife for all always, so don’t lose sight of that fact. ✌️😇❤️🌈📀🔒🔐
