It's a choice, not an addiction!
That heroin must be a real bit#h! I don’t know because everyday I CHOOSE not to do it.

It’s actually an addiction and it’s proven. Do some research
Smack this!
Don’t try it for the first time and you’ll never become addicted. Even 3 year olds know the stuff is addictive.
LMAO
I went to high school with this waste of life. Good ole Riverside.
Smh
What a Moron..
Lol
I’m surprised the Indians that own these stores didn’t smoke him. I’m in these stores all the time. Good people. Can’t understand why people want to risk jail or be killed for a few bucks. Not worth it.

It’s absolutely ridiculous. They will get like 80 bucks and do 5 years and jail and pay for lawyers and fines . Guess if they were smart enough to understand that, they wouldn’t be robbing stores in the first place
Puerto Rico is better than PA
