And this was at the height of the crack era this happened. Even white people go :dahell: anytime a black Jamaican doesnt have dreadlocks or an exaggerated accent or doesn't curse ever 2 seconds. Even as a kid, I knew them accents were super fake.
WTF is a "black Jamaican" that's like 90% of the country.
:mjlol:Black is the default group.

Anyway, shower posse fell off in the States. The most :demonic:gangs are Latino ones like MS13. Those are ruthless mofos.

There are a few non black Yardies. They look East Indian or some of them straight up white. But yeah, 90% of the Yardie population straight black.

How did Jamaica go from one of the safest countries in the world to the most dangerous?

:dahell:

Cold War politics intersecting with domestic politics. The CIA got into bed with the JLP and PNP to keep them away from communism. And the two parties had gangsters on their pay rolls like George Feathermop Spence, and Claudius Massop (who was the original leader of the Shower Posse). These guys prior to Cold War tensions were more small time enforcers for their political overlords, giving votes in exchange for government contracts and cash. But after the CIA started getting involved in Jamaican politics they started to get guns too. Really good guns at that. Pretty soon they became so powerful they got out of the politicians pockets.

At the same time the CIA was also getting involved with drug lords in South America. Due to its favorable location between South America, North America and Europe, Jamaica became an ideal distribution centre where shipments from South America could be sorted out and forwarded to wholesalers in North America and in Europe.

So you had both a stash of high end weapons and a steady flow of big drug money coming into the country at the same time, as a result of US foreign policy colliding with the already corrupt nature of Jamaican politics. That is a recipe for a perfect storm. And that's how Jamaica became so dangerous

My mother said that this made her call numerous Hollywood studios and started cursing out secretaries and even smaller media companies over the false image of black Jamaicans.

Like 80% of Yard Man nah have dreadlocks. That is some Tariq Nasheed type of shyt.

What were the Jamaicans reaction to this scene?

Politicians armed gangsters and paid them to fight exclusively for them. PNP vs. JLP. Gave them guns and told them to stop the other side no matter what.
That's true to some extent, but Also oversimplified. The C.I.A. was heavily involved too, trying to prevent socialist governments in the carribbean after Castro took over in Cuba. "A Brief History or seven killings" does a great job of portraying politics in Jamaica in the 70's and 80's. It's not an easy read though.

Jamaicans got ran out of these cities tho.

New Jack City shows a small example of this.

The late 80's/early 90's was the wrong time to come into the American hoods. :hubie:

Black American Generation Xers in their youth were some wild MFers.
