    Yes, I know it sounds like I'm deep-throating the mic. I will move it farther away.
    PLEASE like and share this raid as it was one of the best I have EVER done.

    hey mister Academy, I would like to say that your videos inspired me to enter the Mexican drug trade. I have to do a lot of lying to border security, and faking of my identity, and watching your videos makes me feel like i'm not alone. Shalom my brother.

    “I don’t want this guy to know he’s getting raided” as he builds a raid base. Also how much did these guys earn for u to raid their base ?
