shyt who knos. That's some shyt you really can't ask to many question about and go into detail from his fam side of things, it's never brought up so I never say anything but I was thinkin the same thing. You usually find out thru a third party what really was happenin. He was a good nikka but always had his hand into a lot of shyt, never worked a job so the did all he knew how to do and always had money.

Update: Des Moines police issue arrest warrant related to Thursday’s homicide [video]

That's the story and I'm just now noticing them dirty ass dogs used my man mugshot as his picture in the article :wow:
Jeez. When you don't have a job, but always have money, then.....

dang.:lupe: that area use to be the hood like not even 10 years ago. it was never as bad as englewood or out west but it was still a gang infested neighborhood.

Its interesting how quickly Latino hoods get gentrified
but it seems like it takes a bit longer in black neighborhoods, unless they completely raze the area and kick people out like with cabrini green and the other projects

I been hearing about pilsen and east humbolt park getting gentrified quickly too

Chicago is NOT a third world country. There are a lot of areas and hoods where regular black folks work and chill and raise kids quietly.

These lil niccas are NOT out here starving like that. Everyone has food and a place to stay.
But there are a lot of People are too comfortable being fcuk ups.
A whole generation of black folks let us down here, we conceded a lot of clout and jobs to hispanics (no diss)
I blame ALL of the fukkery on the breakdown of the black family and lack of parenting.

It's too culturally acceptable here to just be an unemployed street nicca, parents won't push their kids, females will still date and have children with them, knowing how the story will end, and no expectation for anything different.

I lived 30 years of my life in the 100's in Roseland, grew up there, and eventually bought my own home in another part of the same hood. Went to a high school that was so bad they decided to wipe the slate, closed it and re opened it as a whole different school with different administration and teachers after i left.

I am a father of 4 black children still living on the south side..

80% of these murders are black on black crime. Lil Niccas killing each other over Facebook twitter and Youtube disses.
It's all about p*ssy and pride, these lil bums aren't even fighting over money or power, which is why the cops are clueless how to stop it because it's the definition of "senseless". There's not grand conspiracy or militias, it's nikka shyt, plain and simple, and it's snowballing out of control.

My best friend is a social worker, and every day she see's the BS, NO ONE is taking care of these kids.
Mama had em young and still trying to live her life, daddy was never around.
Be mad I'm saying it, fine. But this is the very very very very very very real situation in this city.
It's not even falling thu cracks at this point, it's becoming the norm, and it's scary.

Fear of my pops kept me out of a lot of dumb shyt growing up that my friends fell into looking for guidance and "love".

Now these lil dudes are out here wilding, and they're strapped, and they don't even want your love. I really don't know what the solution is, and it's sad.

pilsen is already expensive if you're east of ashland. cuz now you're getting into the university village and UIC area. if you're west of ashland, its affordable. but it be fukkery happening out there as well. I think mckinley park might be a better option than pilsen. it's a little further south, but it has orange line access, access to I55 and more stores than you have around pilsen. also it's cheaper.

funny thing about the east humboldt park are is developers are trying to sell that area as "west wicker" or "west bucktown" for these yuppies.

:salute: I would rep this post. especially the bolded.

speaking of having kids and living out south, do you let them play outside? do they go to public school? how's that working out in your neighborhood?

I've heard it mentioned that private militias are behind many of these murders and I'm starting to think that's totally plausible given Chicago's major problem with corrupt politics.
im starting to think so too. i wouldnt put it past this evil country.
