REEEE UPS!

A Day With the Homiez – 1st Down
Me & My Bitch (OG mix) – B.I.G.
and as a follow up, M-1 on Fox News talking about the whole ‘Stop Snitching’ thing.
this shit is getting really ridiculous. this is obviously a ploy to further demonize rap and offset the Imus remarks and, more importantly, the real underlying issue of WASP (white anglo-saxon protestant) opression in communities of color. is not cooperating with the police frustrating and weakening to the legal system? yes, but you can’t just look at 2007 and complain that communities aren’t cooperating with law enforcement without looking at the historical relationship that those communities have had with the law. talking to the police won’t end the drug trade, the murders or robberies, but, as M-1 says in the clip, only the community itself can. the real question is why these things happened, are happening and will probably keep happening in these neighborhoods, and i don’t think people want to really dig deep and answer that.

Thanks for the ups….. I am twisted like most on the subject but, simply this. Communities have to stand tall. Snitching isn’t it.. it’s the crimes that start the process. We need to work the root to kill the plant.
