Atlanta water boys caught a Rolls Royce at the light

[Thanos]

The amount of bootstrap talk in here
They just don’t want to work
Will be the same nikkas in another thread
I’m black y’all, I’m black y’all, I’m blackity black
You nikkas so flaw and love that cac rhetoric just as much as they do
Writing a bunch of bullshyt on an online forum
What you gump nikkas doing in your community to help these young kids
That’s right absolutely not a gotdamn thing
But you running your overly sodium filled fingers like you on some positive shyt
Arkham Asylum

"I don't want to help a kid that's not mine, it's giving stepdad" "Them kids need to pull them bootstraps" "These thugs need to get off the street" THESE ARE KIDS, and they treating them with the same logic as grown adults. like show some grace.

They want to be accountable for their actions, but not their own.

 

[Peachstate]

Yes. None of those kids give af about a youth employment programs or after school programs however.

Because their parents don't. Their parents don't know where they are or what they're doing. Long as they don't have to deal with them, it's whatever.

That's the real issue.

 

[Bboystyle]

I'm being a "fake militant" for suggesting that so-called Black men see the humanity in Black boys born at the very bottom of the ladder. Quite telling how yall come in here acting like these are wild animals that snap and kill passengers at a moments notice.

Same brothers stay on here crying about how "no one cares about Black boys". Yall showing yall asses in here today.

Are u this gullible in real life? Them kids have videos of doing stupid shyt and scamming people yet u in here crying foul for them like a weirdo. Those kids give zero fukks about a job or school no matter what u try to give them

 

[Absolut]

These boys would make more money grabbing a lawnmower and walking door to door.

Washing trash bins.

Walking dogs

Sweeping porches and driveways

Cleaning windows

This right here is just a path to prison. This isn’t a positive hustle because they are more begging than hustling.

A hustle would be to have a cooler out there with ice water, fresh fruit, frozen candy. With gloves on their hands looking like they taking shyt serious. I knew a dude who hustled fresh cut up fruit and waters for years until he was able to buy his own juice bar. He was hustling but his shyt was professional.

He had a warmer where he would keep chicken Pattie’s and sell those also.

But these kids don’t have trees where the fruit grows in their backyards

 

[Savvir]

not to use but sell

cacs still smoke rocks

nikka...

did you really just say you would want to help young black men acquire crack so they can deal it?



this has to be one of the top 10 agent comments I've ever seen on a "black" message board

 

[invalid]

once I introduced the idea that if it was YOUR kin that there was an alternative narrative/conspiracy going on you started playing mental gymnastics on some smart dumb shyt to play me off like a goofy.

fixed again.

 

[Still Benefited]

This is some pitiful shyt.

Black Americans NEVER used to beg. Especially the kids. They may have danced for money or did odd jobs but never outright begged.

What happened to PRIDE??!!!

On top of that these dudes sound like they are from a foreign planet.

These kids parents failed them horribly.

Dancing for money is more prestigious? Theres no difference in this and a lemonad stand other than the approach. Maybe yall could give them some pointers if yall wasnt so scary.


Id say this behavior is cute and apart of their charm among certain ATL demographics. You see the man in the video laughing. As a black man who no longer resides in the hood,and is far less reckless,and has a family to think about. I cant knock someone for keeping their window rolled up. I agree they could probably do better if they changed their approach. But I was kid who once sold random items and opened doors at the mall. Im sure at 11 or 12 I wasnt the most polished

 

[Diyhai]

This shyt is sad. Who the fukk is raising them?
No decorum, respect, self-dignity….
They should be in the park/field working on their soccer/football/basketball skills, studying, reading, playing video games, working a summer job…normal shyt


Kids only do this in developing countries. Even at that the kids have wayyy more respect

Not everybody has a family
You are truly living blindly if you think every kid has a healthy, stable support system

Cause I rather support a black entrepreneur than a dope fiend?

Stay your surburbanite ass outta hood nikka threads

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Meanwhile the white and asian kids are at home in the AC with a refrigerator full of food and snacks and the Mexicans are going to work with their dad. We're doomed.

Welcome to Baltimore breh

 

[Diyhai]

This looks like some shyt out of a 3rd world country

Yall really be living sheltered lives
I be wondering where yall from
This is why I would never expect certain demographics to ever understand this type of shyt

They’re selling water for money.

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Let’s be honest y’all. Some of y’all saying these kids need to get a real job. The fact they out selling water tells you everything you need to know. To get a job would require you to be on time and in dress code. Y’all really think they got that type of family support?

 

[Marc Spector]

I see a lot nikkas not from ATL talking about stuff in ATL like they know the situation down here. And worst part you are talking badly bout kids. If you selling water in 90+, you are not one making bad decision. you are doing what you can and within your means to make money.

"What don't they get a job": unemployment for black teen is very high and also requires proper transportation. Before you even say the bus, a lot of these places are not serviced at all.

"What about summer programs": that requires transportation to get to, and as the city demographic changes and people continue to get pushed out, not catering to them

These boys are buying water from understaffed grocery stores

 

[BmoreGorilla]

They’re selling water for money.

Just today I saw a kid selling waters right next to a white dude with a sign begging for money
