“It’s borderline 9th Ward, 8th Ward,”

Why are their neighborhoods referred to in the same way as sections of mental hospitals and prisons ?

Glory be to the Bomb, and to the Holy Fallout. Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure...

[Celerity]

What timing !

A lot of times these things are staged. It adds to whatever cred’ they are trying to achieve.

Then Easy Money, with his son and a friend alongside him, confronted the man.

Shoulda done capped his ass.

My sympathies to the mother, and the dreams she once had for each of her children. All four sons, now dead of bad decisions and/or Gang violence. Unbelievable. This in Louisiana, not Iraq or Syria. Not even Chicago.

It’s a prime example of why Lincoln should be dug up and shot again.

They buried him in a steel cage below 3 tons of concrete for a REASON.

[doorgunner69]

they really was just a group of friends who was trying to do something positive, when they stereotyped us as a gang,

There you have it: Dindu Nuffins.....................

[Rockingham]

Family breakdown and rampant drug use explain much of the problem. In blunt terms, most of the shootings are by fatherless boys who smoke dope and roam the streets.

A conscience in a pit of Hell.

I don’t have a problem with the variety of arts, but it’s not the arts that are problematic.

I’m currently engaged in civil indifference toward their plight. Not because of the fact that they’re black, but because of the way they behave. They live the way they do because of the way they behave, and rightly so. My attitude has nothing to do with it. I don’t owe them a thing.

A lot of criminals who went to Texas to escape Katrina got a shock when they went down for a murder.

Louisiana law only allows them to hold someone for 60 days without being charged, and Texas police heard them call it a “60 day homicide”.

The perps were befuddled when they were not released after being held 60 days in Texas for killing someone.

"... just because you rap about the street life, drugs, guns and violence doesn't mean you live that life..."

Gee. You romanticize the thug life because you make "music" glorifying it, you dress like the thugs, you act like the thugs, you talk like the street thugs, you have children out of wedlock and don't support your children, to all appearances, you look and act as if you were street thugs to any normal person.

And then you wonder why people think you are street thugs?

[brucedavis]

Sounds like it was staged. Why the hell would a guy with a gun start a fight in front of a news team? Lame. Sounds like a BS false flag to me. They could just be that stupid but I don’t think so.

[Moltke]

Gates stopped mid-sentence and a man who used to be in a rap group with Easy Money started yelling obscenities about Gates being in the neighborhood. It was obvious it was time to leave, which we started to do. Then Easy Money, with his son and a friend alongside him, confronted the man. A conflict that should have been settled with words turned violent.

Sort of reminds me of a nature show I once watched, about certain inhabitants of the jungle.

[Senator_Blutarski]

He introduced us to Althea Phillips, whose four sons were all killed in gun violence.

Nice job of parenting...
