she is hot would do her.
She used to be on here as Brick for Brains and was always spouting off about how druggers were being mistreated. Just like Iberra does now. Give them both a gun and let them shoot it out and then hang the winner. They all disappear after awhile.
She is a Jones that family and the Riech family is nothing but methed out theiving drains on society……..deport them and let somebody who wants to work for a living take their spot.
Take Iberra with them.
It would be better to wait until this thief is out of jail and somebody needs to shoot her. The person will need to say she threatened so it will be legal. I am tired of my taxes giving these people lawyers and free room and board. Enough of this already.
Ah yes-Brick for Brains got caught again. Just another stupid drugger.
