3 spam posts :0^^


Anyway, on topic, that's pretty interesting. I wonder why he didn't end up taking it down. Surely if he had the option, and chose not to, he should be given a lighter sentence? He could have done damage, but decided against it :/.

They should have let him take it down then gave him an on the spot fine of 50 pounds. And the thing that gets me is he managed to get through all their security and instead of employing him lol the jail him for 8 months.
