Hongbo be Hongbo
Tu penserais a tort donc que la folie est heriditaire. A la naissance , aucun bebe ne rit de folie. Un trouble mental survient au fil de temps suite a plusieurs facteurs, et toi meme ou tu es tu n’es pas epargne
Une fois de plus protester contre la brutalite de la police face a des individus de race noire en Amerique
CeJeune homme a ete Cible. Voila la verite. C’est un phenomene qui sevit secretement dans Les pays occidentaux. Ce sont les societes secretes qui sont derriere cela.
Pour ce qui sont intelligents, faites vos recherches sur “LES INDIVIDUS CIBLES EN RESEAUX”
Vous verrez comment, avant de tuer la cible, on engage toute une communaute a Harceler la cible avec des “ARMES A ENERGIES DIRIGEES”.
Apres avoir touche le systeme neurologique de la cible, la prochaine etape est de le signaler a la police et Vous connaissez la suite si Dieu n’intervient pas.
Alors, faites vos recherches avant de prononcer des choses degradantes sur une personne qui a ete tuee.
C’est le moment pour la Race Noire de s’unir.
Malheuresement, Les societes secretes et des Reseaux ont infiltre nos communautes et beacoup se plaisent dans ce systeme de sacrifice humain.
En tout cas, la Verite est comme du FEU et on Ne peut la cacher pour toujours. Elle Sortira au Nom de CHRIST.
