His name was “Latauriisha.” I’d go by 1/2 Ounce too.

But, but I was told that country music works with the Republican party to perpetuate violence and white supremacy.

Too Funny!, experts thinks it’s a problem, normal people think they should continue killing themselves, maybe even step up their game to 1 a month...

***with at least one rapper being fatally shot every year since 2018.***

Say what? Here is a list that has not been updated since 2020.

If they kill all the rappers, then there will never be any more innovations and evolutions in rap music like we have witnessed since the 70 and 80s. It is soooo much different now after a half century.

It is a shame they keep getting murdered.

Maybe it’s about a culture that glorifies violence, banging Ho’s and crime ... for while they may be rare but I don’t see Christian “rappers” getting shot in numbers, relatively speaking.

***Gun violence is “a part of the condition of Black people in society***

Maybe there was a reason Judge Taney of the SCOTUS, in 1857 declared free blacks were not citizens of the US. If they were, he stated, one of the rights they would have was “To keep and carry arms wherever they went.”—Dred Scott Decision

<< “You have to think critically about oppression and the larger context we live in,” she said. >>

So blacks killing their own kind on a massive scale nationwide is the fault of, you guessed it, ….whitey.

It’s all systemic, it’s a part of the way society is structured,” Richardson added.

That's meaningless word salad. It's every parent's responsibility to teach their children about the sanctity of life, and respect for it. It's every parent's responsibility to make sure their children get an education and learn to make their way in the world. If you cede this responsibility to some nebulous thing called 'society', and 'societal structure', your child will suffer the consequences - and so will the people who your child might hurt in the world.
