@Anonymous you guys are crazy if you don’t think there’s more to this story. We’re all confused about why Bwog deleted it because we only know half of what’s happening, I guarantee it. Either the administration or the police or their lawyer told Bwog to take that down and not talk about it.
@Um What the hell can the police do? What law was broken?
@Anonymous i don’t think you know how bwog’s lack of an organizational structure works or how the law works
