Holy shyt man this graph :jbhmm: Whenever people talk about gun deaths, remember it's about deaths per resident, not totals. So, you keep hearing about Maryland, Illinois and DC, look at where they're at. And look at the top 10:
  • Alaska
  • Louisiana
  • Mississippi
  • Alabama
  • Oklahoma
  • Montana
  • Wyoming
  • Arkansas
  • Tennessee
  • New Mexico

A Coli breh said this in the Nipsey thread in the Booth on Sunday night. @Marc Spector
Nipsey Hussle Has Passed Away -RIP

Of all the posts in that thread, that's the statement that has stuck in my mind the past few days b/c it's just so sad that it's true.



I don't even need to say anything more on it, you can just stop and think about it yourself.
Sad? No. It's called being targeted. Dont let anyone walk over you.
