Is it just me or does he look like he is really enjoying himself?

I hope he is, because the chinese state will not hesitate to crush him.

Yeah, he is definatly dead. But I think there is a switch in every man’s head where he says “Fuck it, I’m building a canon and going down with the ship”, you can kind of only lose/ take so much.

Scarface.

i got some CIA friends that can give tibetans some type 81 assault rifles and rpg 32

The Enclosures all over again?

I like how this guy literally has a hand-cannon.

There is an episode of Star Trek (the original series) that can help you there…

That guy is such a badass.
