Great, now Monopoly will get a "Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue" property…

Wait, what? This is like Disney pushing Mickey Mouse and Donald duck aside to promote drug addled whores to the kids instead.

It’s all about money. Some people would be happy to make money off death. Wait, they already do!

This is what happens when the folks are trained to accept all cultures and all degradations of culture as equally good.

Why does trash sell more than good stuff?

Owned by Hasbro, that’s gangsta if I’ve ever heard if it.

Ice Cube got it right over 20 years ago in that “No Vaseline” song.

There’s more to the story. I’d say they’ll sell Death Row as soon as they can:

Hasbro, the toy maker behind My Little Pony, Monopoly and Mr. Potato Head recently bought an independent studio that makes children shows Peppa Pig and Pj Masks and also happens to own Death Row Records.

Is that a joke? He looks like Johhny Depp’s queer brother.
