Rap song blamed for gang shootout
Houston Chronicle ^

Posted on 07/19/2006 3:39:12 PM PDT by Snickering Hound

A rap song sparked a nightclub shooting between rival gangs that had declared a truce to celebrate a birthday, leaving two men dead and four injured, police said. The song — Put Yo Hood Up by Lil' Jon & The East Side Boyz — urges listeners to flash hand signs for their neighborhood and confront rivals. It was played before Sunday's shooting, said Deputy Chief Alfredo Saldaña

You just pick one - East Side or West Coast. It's like a circumlateral civil war, perpendicular to the North-South lines.

Or, if you're playing bridge, you want to sit on the side of the table parallel to the bathtub, so you'll win. I guess if your bathtub runs east-west, you're screwed.

Makes the same amount of sense, anyway.

My neighborhood doesn't have a hand sign. What do I do?!?

Make one up and distribute a flier to your neighbors. Remember to greet all neighbors with "wud up homes" or "wud it be, dog."

What are the odds, that some of these righteous citizens were "refugees" from New Orleans?

Smaller than they would have been if it had been in Houston.

I've got a universal "hand sign" for all gang members and it doesn't mean they are number one.

How about: "Morons Who Think Guns are Penises Blamed for Gang Shootout"

And when agreeing with someone, say "Eye-t." Or "ite," as in urban-ite or bite. It's supposed to be "all right."

My bathroom isn't big enough for a card table, so I guess we're okay on that front.

I suppose if I try "Hook 'em, 'Horns!" I'll end up dead, huh?

I don't think my neighbors want to be called "dog." Maybe I live in the wrong neighborhood ...

Is there a generally recognized hand sign for "Mow your lawn, already!"?

Hi All-

These dimwit gangsters are so predictable. I wonder if they realize we're having a laugh at their savage behavior?

Word up, homies!

Process of elimination.Only the dumb survive.I laugh when I think back about 11 years ago.Being new to West Texas,the first time someone called me dog, I pulled out my pistol and said,who are you calling a dog?About 10 people went out of their way to explain to me it was not a provocative saying,and meant 'some'kind of respect.I was the only caucasion at the party,so naturally I thought something was going down.Made a lot of friends that day though.Now,being called dog doesnt bother me.Just a strange way of saying friend!As Alan Jackson would say in his song,Where I come from...
