Question: is “stable condition” enough to earn street cred?

Judging from all of the of shootings going on out there, it would appear that Barack the Kenyan and his commie ‘RAT comrades have the whole damn country in a funk.

I like this one: "We need to stop calling them 'aspiring' rap artists. They should be called 'expiring' rap artists."

Shooting a video at 2:30 AM??? It may have just been a neighbor upset at the noise in the middle of the night.

Comments are not quite what I expected but then I would guess that not too many of the rappers friends comment at this particular on-line source.

Wonder if Sheila Jackson Lee sent him flowers and has gone to visit him yet.

Maybe they were really ‘wrap artists’ wrapping all of those Chistmas presents after doing their shopping early!

The difference between an aspiring rapper and an expiring rapper isn’t very much.
