Does someone have it in for “rappers”? Is there a serial rapper killer out there? I agree the “music” is awful, but I don’t think it should be a death sentence. But, there seems to be a lot of the rapper killings happening lately.

Or, could it be that many of these rappers are simply criminals trying to make a few bucks by spouting obscenities to a drum beat.

With so many of these type killings, I hear the same thing: “He was an aspiring rapper, trying to turn his life around and support his four children and three baby-mommas”. (And as an aside they read out his arrest record).

With all the crime in democrat cities and the fact that the leftists continue to vote for the same, I find that my “give a damn” is broken.
