This creep is most likely already in the system that's why he is still walking around. Someone will say he is the victim and we are over-reacting. I totally agree w/SickOfit. Scumb-bags like this are never cured. One can only hope that this guy gets run over and put out of commission for good the next time he jumps out of his car w/or w/o his pants. more ›
