T.I. Drops Black Lives Matter Song: Constitution ‘Just a [bleeping] Piece of Paper’

Rapper T.I. has released a politically charged song titled “War Zone” that’s chock-full of Black Lives Matter-inspired themes and racial rhetoric. The song, featured on the Atlanta-based artist’s new Us or Else EP, features the refrain of “Hands Up, Cant’ Breathe,” a reference to the Black Lives Matter protest chants made popular following the police-involved killing of New York City resident Eric Garner.

“War Zone” references other high-profile shootings of black men, including that of Philando Castile, who was fatally shot by a Minnesota police officer in an incident that was live-streamed in a widely shared Facebook video, and of Alton Sterling, who was shot and killed by Baton Rouge police.

Without it nothing protects him, so he and the BLM are just asking for their rights to be violated. So, since they claim there is no constitution, I could care less if they suffer.

If the Constitutionis just a “f***ing piece of paper”, then so is CIVIL RIGHTS, granted by the Constitution. Also, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, etc.

If you've got an IQ of 70 and can't read, that's all it is.

The Constitution was not meant for a nation of retarded boobs.

“T.I. Drops Black Lives Matter Song: Constitution ‘Just a F*cking Piece of Paper’”

My 1980s era English had a completely different interpretation of this headline.

That “Piece of Paper” is the only thing standing between them and a bullet in the head, which in most other countries they would get.
