LOS ANGELES (AP) — In a courtroom that quickly turned chaotic after a trial that seethed with tension both cultural and personal, a Los Angeles jury on Friday found rapper Tory Lanez guilty of three felonies in the 2020 shooting of hip-hop star Megan Thee Stallion, which left her wounded with bullet fragments in her feet and could send him to prison for more than 20 years.

Lanez, who was put in handcuffs and led to jail while wearing a powder pink coat with matching pants, showed no visible reaction as the verdict was read.

But moments later after the jury was escorted out, his father, Sonstar Peterson, leapt up and began shouting. “This wicked system stands judged before God almighty!” He shouted, as deputies closed in on him. He then pointed to the two prosecutors in the case and yelled “You two are evil, wicked people. You know exactly what you did.”

“The shooting set off a storm of cultural issues and arguments that peaked during the trial, including the reluctance of Black victims to speak to police, the protection of Black women, gender politics in hip-hop, and online toxicity.”

LOL- black guy shoots black chick and its still racist and a race based issue

And here I thought a Stallion was a male horse, or is this some kind of gender confusion thing again complete with pronouns?

I just don’t understand how all this ‘cultural upheaval’ took place over this trial and I completely missed it. Am I following the wrong people on Twitter?

Love your tagline.

“I am offended that you are offended “.

And yes, unless you’re following some sane persons on Twitter, you’re not getting a pretty picture. Musk bought a cesspool.

She adopted the stage name "Megan Thee Stallion" because she was called a "stallion" in adolescence due to her height (5 ft 10 in (178 cm))[9] and "thick" body frame;[12] voluptuous and statuesque women in the Southern United States are colloquially called "stallions".[3] I'm not a southerner and never heard this before.
