Our daughters aren't safe either: RIP Kaylyn Pryor

[MeachTheMonster]

If you want proof, go to these hoods and spend some time with these kids, I have.

nikka I live in "the hood"

if rap causes violence then why has raps popularity been going up, while violence has been going down?

why aren't suburban kids shooting each other up?

no deflections, just answer the questions

 

[DMGAINGREEN]

you serious? you think rap causes violence?

What about before rap, the world and Chicago was much more violent before rap music was even a thing.

Poverty
Gun Laws
education system
human nature
mental illness
jealousy
starvation
fukking lead poisining

and the list goes on. remove rap and all this still exists.

Rap is a product of all of those elements and derived from lack of opportunity, leisure time, oppression and not having a platform where their voice couldn't be heard , thats what these sheltered niccas can't comprehend ...

 

[marcuz]

From my experience, yes.

I'm from the ghetto and made up my mind to get the fukk out. It took a life changing experience for me to do it but it got done and I was gone.

Difference being, I had progerssive parents who were preparing me for the world while they were bettering themselves. One of the biggest problems the black youth face is lack of positive guidance. They don't see anyone else tryna do right so why should they?

fukk outta here with this bullshyt. some of the laziest people you'll ever meet are financially well off.

These are the things that black people need to be seen protesting just as much if not more than police brutality.

I agree @Yup .

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Is there proof that music doesn't influence?

yes, plenty

 

[Matt504]

Is there proof that music doesn't influence?

The "proof" is that violence predates music so it can't possibly be a factor, never mind the fact that these poor and underprivileged kids spend inordinate amounts of time listening to and watching rappers rap about their glamorous lifestyles, the drugs, money, the killing, the designer fashion, the bytches etc.

protesting wont stop gang violence. Who/What would we protest?

but black people are out everyday trying to stop this violence. Its a myth created by white media that we dont

I have to read as to why Chicago is the way it is right now

 

[TheNig]

yes you are so special, now if only everybody could be like you.

It's become clear that you're not from the ghetto.

 

[Remote]

She was beautiful.
Very sad.

 

[marcuz]

I agree @Yup .

how do you protest against crime? and i'm still waiting for you to list your solutions.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

It's become clear that you're not from the ghetto.

I'm in "the ghetto" right now as I type

it's a hub for the mexican drug cartels.

A bunch of dumb sorry ass nikkas too scared to face the facts and quick to blame everybody else for their problems.

nikkas don't wanna see change. They just wanna bytch and complain about how bad it is out here.

 

[Drip Bayless]

Just coming out of the house and.walking to the bus


How do you randomly just pull up and shoot someone


They don't even do this in 3rd world countries

At most you would be robbed and thats it

You're right they do a lot worse in some 3rd world countries
