Just doesn't pay these days, I tell you.

 

[tzarinna]

For ****s sake.

 

[Jack Rabbit]

I'd hit it.



...too soon?

 

[Manic]

Does she really want to tell the police everything about the people who branded "snitch" on her face with a hot iron?

 

[terry78]

At least they didn't use hot grits straight out the pot.

 

[Warhammer]

Black people sometimes.

 

[terry78]

Black people sometimes.

Yeah, that's part of the reason no one reports **** in our community. The snitch moniker. I went into a gas station earlier and they're selling t-shirts, one of which is a picture of a pair of naked feet with a toe tag on one that says "I was a snitch." Now little kids are supposed to assume that telling about crimes is not the way to go...that's the problem.

 

[GunBlade]

Snitches these days..

Yeah, I know.
It's terrible and a damn shame.

Yeah, a little.

It's an interesting cultural phenomenon to me where NOT reporting criminals to the authorities so they can't hurt people anymore is considered the proper thing to do and people who go against that grain are punished for it. It's one of those wow...just wow....kinda things.

I just can't imagine why some black people, gang violence, and violence on the streets are so bad. It makes me ashamed and pissed off.

I don't know what to be worried about first. The lyrics, the actual video, or the user comments...

The user comments.

 

[Tyrinus]

This is where I'm going to rant pointlessly about how it's these kind of people that can't accept responsibility for their actions. If they don't want to get snitched on, then don't do anything wrong.

And I'm a spiteful S.O.B. If someone did that to me it would just piss me off and make me want to hurt them. Which is probably why, if that happened to me, I'd wind up dead in the gutter. But I'd be spitefully dead in the gutter.....yeah.

Black? Where in the article did it say they were black? It happened in Mesa, AZ. They were probably Mexican (from their names and location).

 

[OverMyHead]

Yep.

They weren't black.

No snitchin policy spreads through all race livin in the ghetto state.

Oh snaps!

Did I just rhyme? The idea of snitch is whack.

 

[AhabTheArab]

yea seriously, you guys are some pretty large bigots. did you even read the article or just scan through it? they clearly stated their names and they both are clearly of spanish decent. but its just easier to blame it on the blacks right guys?

and they were obviously all meth addicts, so who the hell cares about this *****? thin the herd amongst themselves, i love it.

It's like, any minute now, Armeggadden.

 

[blind_fury]

I wish the Punisher was real and found these guys.

 

[terry78]

The issue is that there's probably not just four or five of them running around, but probably a massive clique/gang of them, so whoever gets put away, more will come to exact some revenge. Never ending cycle.

 

[chamber-music]

I wish the Punisher was real and found these guys.

co-signed. These crazy ex-army types need to start going all Travis Bickle, John Rambo and Frank Castle on criminals ass

 

[Green Goblin 1964]

I LOL at that lady......she's been BRANDED!

Exactly.
