Camoflauge may been killed simply because a careless CCW holder couldn't see him.....

[tracer]

I once thought about buying some of his CDs, but I just couldn't see it....

Rappers/Hip Hoppers and Country Music have a lot of people who own guns.

Yet, Country fans and artists arent killing each other.

Careful there...the Political Correctness Police (formerly The Thought Police)
will be visiting you to warn you about being "judgemental" with these
sort of observations...

One of the groups you mention will think you're "prejudiced"...and it wouldn't
be the Country music fans...

Ah for the good old mellow days of the 1960s and early 1970s, when music stars and
many of their fans would either just overdose or fry their own brains...
or the original country music stars who'd just do too much Jack Daniels or tobacco...

These rapper types shooting each other up is getting a bit out of control. There's got to be something to it that is not evident here...

I never recall Billy Joel trying to off Elton John, or Blue Oyster Cult going after Boston in the 70's.....

Furthermore, I think the only reason more rappers don't die is because they're all such bad shots.

You mean, you're not supposed to turn your .25 pea shooter sideways and fire?

Touche'.

Is all hope for America lost?

Nah. Just a case of "Evolution in Action".

I feel sorry for the little boy, though.

I can't imagine such an item not mentioning the child's mother . Perhaps there is/was no mother?

Many considered the rapper a role model despite his violent, profanity-laced lyrics and brushes with the law. Savannah high schools would invite Camoflauge to host pep rallies. In 2001, he was invited to appear at a Father's Day celebration at Savannah's Daffin Park.

A time for silence; the world has lost a great person ...

And what would be wrong with that sentence?

To your typical DIMoWIT probably nothing.

The wife did it! For real though prayers for his son and those who loved him. Sounds like he made a deal with the devil and the contract was ended. Remember on of the OH GOD movies were the down on his luck musician made a deal with the devil? OTOH maybe warning signs should be posted on the outside of rapper recording studios NOT This place sound like the town I was reaised in seems like a vortex of evil was over it. Pittsburg California. Yuk

But, I can still see him!!!

You're assuming that rappers shoot other rappers. Tupac didn't shoot Biggie and vice-versa. Although this guy was not a saint he was making music and trying to do something positive with his life. It's a really a shame, the crabs in a barrel phenomena continues...

[Pahuanui]

Yeah it's funny how the primarily legal gun owners (country music stars and fans) are so restrained concerning gunplay yet the primarily illegal gun owners and users (hip-hop musicians & followers) are so quick to draw and fire.

Assumes facts not in evidence.

Someone out of state had to have killed him because anyone in Georgia knows about the concealed gun laws on the books in the state Georgia. Killing someone in public is close to suicide in Georgia because people WILL usually return fire.

[b4its2late]

I guess I assumed wrong them. I thought it was rapper on rapper (sounds like the title of a new rap song..).

[VaBthang4]

Apparently the Camoflauge didnt work.

[Abe Froman]

True but I'm quite sure the odds are in my favor on that assumption.
