OGs were just knuckle-headed drains on society that managed to live past 35, and maybe gave out a few turkeys on Thanksgiving.
Body counts were higher in the 90s, so those OGs weren't doing shyt :dame:
No OG is someone who hold that ass accountable for shyt that's detrimental to getting money puts po po on that ass.

Youngins nowadays ain't even shooting over no drugs/money.

goons in the cut tryna talk you out yo necklace
To be honest she didn't even mean no disrespect it's a freestyle hookah rhymes with Tooka so that's why she said it nothing more than a rhyme scheme. Secondly, she's not from Chicago so of course she wouldn't know the street politics involved in saying that word. And lastly, the word Tooka isn't trademarked so no one has any authority on telling someone else what word they can or can't say. :coffee:
Things people say when it doesn't effect them. The people in this thread dissing Chicago street dudes (as lame as killing is) to seem tough sound ridiculous. All this gang shyt has its rules... Back in the day LA was red or blue. Chicago was whatever side you banged your hat... You think those things wouldn't cause you problems in the wrong hood? So what would happen if you laughed at someone killing Larry Hoover in a song or Tookie Williams? It is what it is...

I just watched that shyt fukking crazy :mjcry:
That was New Years Eve... They'd have tanks in the city if it sounded like that at night. As much as they glorify our violence, 3 min 100 round shootouts between multiple people ain't going down like that

False.

The reasons why the murder rate was so high was because of young niccas putting in work, trying to BE LIKE the OG's, by reputation and of course retribution.

Read "Monster Cody" and it will give you a insight on the gangbangers mentality of the early 80's and how banging escalated from knives and chains to guns and machetes..

I've read Monster Cody.
It doesn't add up completely, murder rates in the 70s using bats, knives and small hand-guns was just as high, if not higher, than now.
Check out the stats for yourself.

I don't know what these dudes in the thread are trying to prove and to be honest I don't care. But language and context is very important in this matter because like you said this gang shyt has it rules.

There was no malice behind what she said because she wasn't trying to be disrespectful. It was a combination of a rhyme scheme and not understanding what Tookah really means. I put bread on it that she thought it was another word for weed. Basically this entire ordeal is a misunderstanding that is being blown way out of proportion.

Are we speaking on gang ties or just the murder rate period?

And are we attributing all murders by stats to be gang related?

Thats the problem.
