45. This just makes my heart ache
Thu Sep 10, 2015, 08:14 AM
Sep 2015

To take it to the level it has been taken and to invade someone's home like this (because make no mistake, Bravenak's home was invaded) is just despicable. This is not just some internet troll, this is a sick, sick individual.

Now people no longer feel safe here.

Bravenak.
