    Good Job RCIPS.

    What ever happened to the Las Vegas Gambler – Initiative; that was going to break the surge of crime in the West Bay district ??

    Oh Boy……. I can’t wait for the OMOV to come to the West Bay voters in the next general election, so we can have some real representation down in the republic.

    So I’m Guessing if you have a real gun you should also make a fake gun so that if they catch you they will give you the lesser charge of an imitation gun.

      There should be no lesser charge. 20 yrs minimum for armed robbery, fake gun, real gun, happy to see you gun. It’s all the same, taking money by putting the fear of death into innocent people.

      These aren’t gangstas folks, these are pathetic little boys without the balls to be real men.
