WOW…. all over a woman SMDH. SAD man…. men you gotta be careful who you get involved with because some of these women ex’s can’t move on and what worst… you killed another man over a woman who still gonna sleep with other men while you are in jail. So I don’t understand some of you men. Be ready to kill another man when they should be really be dealing with the female instead. One thing I will say if they knew each other then that’s the problem.
BULLETS don’t know your name, status, they kill whomever whenever. Like a guy once told me – Everything done in the dark must come to the light. A lot of people out here double dipping until they get caught. Good Luck!!!!!!
If its over a women then he weak asf.
The simp culture of 2022 personified.
I agree the killer was a simp indeed.
How you gonna kill the man when it was his turn? You already had your turn!
I never understood a guy or girl going crazy over the person that their loved one is cheating with… and not being mostly upset with their loved one choosing to cheat on them. Really doesn’t make sense.
dusted n disgusted stopped visiting chicks in the 90s n they gotta pay 2 stay n ul avoid this clown ish
Probably about respect …she get off scott free while hommie on the run
A few of you all are stating that a man should not harm another behind a woman, and that is a true statement. Yet having said that the man or woman who feels hurt obviously cares for the person so they don’t want to harm them, but they want to harm the person that they view as the problem. It is human nature to do that though I’m not saying it is the right thing to do. Emotions are hard on us all, I prefer to deal in the realm of logic because it is just straight black and white whereas emotions can be very cloudy.
