Are "Fair Ones" Still Alive?

[Sonic Boom of the South]

When you realize what humanity is and develop a real sense of survival

U know there is no such thing as a fair fight


There are a lot of dead men
With that weak train of thought



If you come at me

My only train of thought is that your intent is to take my life

I'm not fighting you to prove a point

I'm ending the threat

The ONLY way to do so is to end the threat permanently


I'm going to take your life

Fighting just to win is fukking stupid

There have been many men who after losing the fight used weapons to kill the winner

You won't get that chance with me

That fair fight shyt sound cool when u 12

But as a grown man if u believe that

 

[Ya Sinning Mane]

Never was a fair one wit me.im rushing you soon as you take off your gear your shirt or whatever.

Ain’t no fair ones in the jungle.get yours.

 

[Spiritual Stratocaster]

Hell nah..lotta these young frail dudes don't fight..

I think that's why our young brehs got such shyt self esteem and can't make eye contact and all depressed and shyt.

Their fathers and moms are failing them..they don't know how to fight and their confidence is fukked.

Back in the day brehs took pride in having hands or lifting weights.

I'd rather fight some 20yr old nikka than a 45 yr old black man.

Older black men just have that killer instinct..especially since the cities were back then and you were at high risk of getting tested if you carried yourself like a bytch.

duels & shootouts been a thing no tussling*

 

[WesCrook]

And this movie came out in 1995. Colors was 1988.

Gun Violence is nothing new. It's been prevalent at least one full generation at this point

The fair one is just another part of hood mythology and old head revisionist history
Mfs been getting jumped since the days ancient Mesopotamia and Rome, but hood nikkas of the 80s-90s is the only generation of people in history to fight with honor
I remember when I was like 17 and told my big homie who was 26 at the time that nikkas don't shoot the 1s no more
Bro looked at me like " nikka there ain't never been no 1s, you think we gon let a mf come to our hood, beat one of the guys and then walk off like it's all gravy"

Honestly bruh nagas use to thump then it escalated...wasn't just straight to the gunplay...that's the difference..mfs just shoot first now...

 

[King Jae]

Fighting was a game we played when I was little

Me and my next door neighbor would practice throwing lame slaps and countering.

But we did it because it was the "cool" way to settle differences. Fighting for your safety is something completely different.

All it takes is for you to see a nikka get BEAT once for you to say "that's never happening to me" and you carry a pistol after that.

And I'm not talking about getting jumped. I mean getting stomped until you leave a puddle beat.

I got jumped like that before...still fought nagas after that incident...I'm not sitting in jail for killing some clown ass naga unless I have to...broke ribs, concussion, fractured eye socket n all that shyt...still would rather thump it out

 

[smokeurobinson]

There are no stats on this type of thing. Fights, jumpings, stabbings, and shootings all occur.

Exactly.....I was stomped out by 6 older kids at 13 in front of my school in 1992. Dudes came to the school specifically to jump me not shoot a fair one. OP talking about "back in the day" there was no shootings then adding the 2000's he must be talking about 2000 bc.

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

Only in the varrio if nikkas dont fear retalation they will curb stomp yo granny

 

[Shorty K]

Fair ones only exist if you know the person you're fighting. Other than that, always be prepared for fukkery

 

[Jean Jacket]

thangs done changed on this side

Remember they used to thump...

 

[VertigoKnight]

Only place I've seen actual fair ones are with gypsies the guys fight until one has enough then then shake hands and there are no recriminations unless you want to get kneecapped

 

[MoveForward]

Shooting have gone down across the nation in the black community. The puzzy niccas came of age in the 80's and early 90's... The puzzy ass niccas that want to kill everything black man walking are mostly in Chicago, St. Louis, and Baltimore.

 

[Unknown Poster]

The problem is alot of cats really dont know how to shoot a fair one...they let they ego and pride get to them. That's why they end up going to the trunk to get that heater or they bring 5 of they boys to help fight they battles.

Nothing wrong with shooting a proper fade 1 on 1.

 

[datnigDASTARDLY]

Haven't heard "let's shoot a fair one" in years

The old heads used to tell all kinds of stories about getting jumped or jumping someone so idk.

Was life ever really like this?

Yeah this shyt existed in lil nikkas imaginations

At no point has anyone "grown" ever believed in a fair one. The only ones that did were elementary aged kids that didn't have access to weaponry.
