SNOOP ORIGINAL: Read Snoop Lion's 'No Guns Allowed' Essay (EXCLUSIVE)
The BoomBox ^ | April 23, 2013 | Snoop Lion

As I write this, my television screen is full of violent and disturbing images from last week's Boston Marathon bombing.

These images of heartbreak, fear, and panic have become way too common and so have the cases of individuals committing senseless acts of violence and parents losing their innocent children.

Right now feels like the right time for us all to come together to stop the violence, which is why I started the "No Guns Allowed" movement.

Growing up in the streets of Long Beach, I've seen the devastation that comes from gun violence firsthand... Homies dead or put in jail at an age way too young. The tragedies that have hit so close to home for many Americans over the last year inspired me to write a song advocating gun responsibility across the board.

The song "No Guns Allowed" is a call to action for people everywhere to come together and help end the senseless gun violence that claims lives every day. I'm not saying I'm against guns, but I'm saying that people need to think about their actions and be responsible for them. It tears my heart to see these people shooting up schools and public places and innocent people becoming victims for no damn reason!

A song like this has to come from the heart, and for me, the message is particularly powerful because I am a father. A lot of the people pulling the trigger haven't lived long enough to experience a long life full of love, but I know there's still time for them to walk in the path of peace.....

No doubt.

This was written for him by some "intern".

I think Snoop may be street smart, and may be good at selling records.

But he NEVER talks like this, and I guarantee he doesn't write like this.

It is actually satire, proof that G*d has a sense of humor, albeit at the expense of teh Libtards.

Back in the 1960’s there was a gifted music writer, mathamatician, and performer named Tom Lehrer. He wrote “Is there a Klavern in your town?”

In that song was a line, “Got so much cash, Now by gum we’re rich white trash!”.

After all the effort to create a color blind, racially integrated, society we have arrived at “rich, black trash” like Da Dawg.

Like so many others, I wasted my time and effort on that movement.
