@JohnHardwick1976 Alright you piece of shit, this is the 3rd video of Josh that I have seen you post horrible comments on. Seriously, get a life and stop drowning in your hate. Were you beat up by a police officer for being a dead beat, worthless member of society? Or did you fail the physical test because you were too fat and dumb to become an officer? Is that why you are so hateful of people who would take a bullet for you? I really want you to know how much of a waste of life you are.
