Meek Mill Compares War in The Middle East to Living in Philly

[Stick Up Kid]

He’s not wrong. From the associated press.

The United States doesn’t just send in Troops to the battle ground. The US does most of its military killings using drones to mitigate risk. While Obama has been criticized harshly for his drone program it probably was a smart move that saved many U.S lives.

U.S. literally had about 30k troops on the Ground.
Chicago has 2.7M population

That's a silly comparison because let the military freely occupy and secure Chicago like Afghanistan, those number will be the same as Afghan numbers

Not gonna sit here, and say the two are identical, because they're not. To be clear tho, there are similarities. That's in comparison, to the way some ppl are living, and the violence. How bout the predominantly Muslim culture?

Obviously, there's no drones flying thru hoods, leveling blocks (although it looks it, in a shyt-load of spots...)

Similar to the Middle East, life is cheap, in many areas around the city. Cats are walkin around wit PTSD or some sort of trauma...similar to vets. Probably worse off, because this is supposed to be HOME. Majority ppl know someone, that been shot, murdered, or harmed with violence (friends, acquaintances, or relatives). Especially, the youth...

Have you even seen the infastructure of areas throughout the city? The state ppl are living in? Traversed back blocks, in areas like Kensington?
Countless other areas?

Or are you takin blind shots for daps?

Regardless, trivialize and downplay black plight, from the comfort of your surroundings....






You know what direction, this is heading right...

 

[...and some waffle fries]

Meek gotta fall back on this one. Back handed way of saying hood nikkas deal with the same dangers and threats of deployed soldiers.

Mortar attacks everyday, IEDs, ACTUAL COMBAT, Ramp Ceremonies everyday, Convoys, etc

Hoods in the states is like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse compared to these 3rd World slums let alone combat zones in Afghanistan. FOH.

Meek gotta be talking about nikkas in the streets not just the average citizen in Philadelphia. I live in Philly, granted shyt happens all over the city everyday, but this shyt ain’t nothing like no Iraq or Iran or whatever! It’s all a matter of how you live and the things that you do on a daily basis. If you ain’t in the streets, you get up and go to work everyday, stay out the way and take care of your family you good! The way Meek be talking you’d think nikkas is dying on every corner in Philly!

If everybody had this much common sense we'd be okay...

 

[Street Knowledge]

Philly isn’t even the most dangerous city in america

A lot a people on here would have a hard time living in Philadelphia. Philadelphia is the poorest big in America.

 

[KENNY DA COOKER]

Meek needs to realize it's easy to call yourself a "Soldier" when a real WAR isn't going on

 

[BasketCase]

700k died in the last Iraq war

Stop. It

And only about 4000 of them were American soldiersBeing an American soldier is not a dangerous job. Even construction workers are at more risk of losing their lives.

 

[benjamin]

700k died in the last Iraq war

Stop. It

try 3-5k us troops died in the Iraqi war..hell u talkn bout 700k lol we don't even have that many men employed in all our military branches combined

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

700k died in the last Iraq war

Stop. It

US Soldiers?

 

[King Poetic]

I hate when rappers period compare the hoods rather in la, ny, Detroit, Miami, New Orleans, etc... to shyt in the Middle East and parts of Africa

u don’t have rockets, suicide bombers, tanks wiping out entire areas

please young black people and even u old motherfukkers stopped listening to majority of these rappers

 

[Silver Surfer]

Another tweet proving how ignorant rappers are...

 

[BrothaZay]

Alot of you white boys don't get just how bad some hoods are and how fucced up it can make ppl. It's more things that happen in the hood then just homicides

 

[spliz]

Forget whatever Meek talkin bout. But all these WW3 joke tweets is corny as fukk.
