“There is no bigger piece of garbage than you on N1 television and I’m just waiting for a shot to be fired so that I can shoot you like pigeons since you are so excited for the war so that you feel it and that will happen if you don’t back down, the wolf will introduce a state of emergency and then you are done where you will run away…”
