PartIcipating in a gang is some of the most c00n shyt you could do

[agpxknt]

back in high school being in a "gang" or reppin a set was some straight status shyt. Some popularity shyt
wasn't bout no damn survival or some fukkin "i cant eat out cheashyt"
I had numerous friends who lost their fukkin life over this. I'm talkin shot the fukk up/empty the clip type shyt.
They dudes that did it didn't do it cause they was starvin, they did it for stripes.

Considering early black gangs were formed in the 1900s as protection from physical and economic White terrorism, I see no problem with Black American men forming alliances as long as it's in constructive manner with positive direction and not destructive against the Black Community. Older brehs should reach out to the 12-21 age dudes in the streets instead of looking down on them. These kids show they know how to organize, follow a code of conduct and set of protocols, and have allegiance. They just need the proper direction and a code of honor.

A lot of the time people in gangs don't know about their options and there is peer pressure to join gangs. Many of the people who join gangs don't even think they'll live past 30.

That's the thing, It's not in a constructive manner, whatsoever. It has no positive direction, and it is absolutely destructive against the black community

These guys are literally fighting and killing each over "blocks" that none of them even own....

They don't use any of the $ they stack to start any black businesses anywhere (not that i expect them to but just stating the facts....i've known asians, arabs etc who do illegal shyt to make money and then turned around and used some of it to start a business, how many of these nikkas would even do something like that, even though blacks currently need it the most?). They just buy watches, jordans, make it rain, etc

Oh yeah and...they don't have a code...they'll murk, beat and rob the elderly, women, adolescents and even infants

When a cac kills a black man or boy....or gets away with killing one....the majority of these so called "Gs" do absolutely nothing when some of them could. But who do they go after instead? ALWAYS OTHER BLACK PPL. They never go to white/non black neighborhoods and kill, rob, rape or ransack their shyt.

They do nothing for black communities, only tear them down. Even the ones who are getting $ like that, they just use it to buy their little trinkets.

OP is exactly right....they are by far some of the biggest c00ns by far. They mostly harm other black ppl, and won't touch racists period.

Ppl are in here trying to analyze their "thought process". But nikkas who bang who will screwface and mean mug another black man, but not look a white man in the eye for too long. I've even seen some let foreign store owners call them nikka and do nothing. Store owner: "What up my nikka?" So-called thug: "Whats good"



They only care about themselves. Actually, to be honest, a large chunk don't even really care about themselves or their own lives. They just wanna get on IG, FB, Twitter and show off their clothes, jewels, shoes, weed, etc trinkets that they bought selling drugs. We need to stop making so many excuses for them, when you look at what they overall do TO black communities (definitely not FOR), there's no reason to even try to justify this, and by now we should all know that this lifestyle is hardly worth it. I would know, I know some of these dudes personally because I grew up around them but chose a different path.

Most wouldn't even appreciate the excuses ppl in here are making for them...they'd probably try to fight these nikkas over some dumb shyt, a lot view other black men as their enemy not their "brothers"

 

[BrandonBanks]

You honestly have no idea why most young men join gangs do you

These nikkas who bang wouldn't even appreciate the excuses yall are making for them that's the funniest part.

Generally, they have no regards for random black men, even ones like yall who try to rationalize their actions...they don't give a fukk and they'll proudly tell you that after you psychoanalyze why they do what they do on their behalf. They'd be like "fukk you nikka get off my dikk" a lot have fukked up, warped mindsets, where they see other black men as prey, and it's a cancer to the black community.

A lot will treat random non blacks with more basic human respect than other black men. They pretty much won't bother them or look for any confrontation with them, non-blacks know that they won't do anything to them They can go home safely and none of these "real nikkas" will bother them or their homes, property, families etc meanwhile in black communities they're harming their own people on a daily basis.

A lot of these nikkas who bang just grill or instigate beef with other black men for no reason, or a small misunderstanding and they're ready to pop the trunk on nikkas. But scared to raise their voice at a non black man.

These are same cats who go around trying to flex on and beef with random black men, meanwhile they'll allow Habib or Juan who runs the local corner store/gas station to call them "nikka"

OP is absolutely right, generally they are some of the biggest c00ns ever, and i rarely even use the word c00n, but it definitely is the right term for them

 

[BrandonBanks]

Killing another black man over petty beef isn't c00n shyt cuz it's white supremacy, the real culprit, which means u still black and good with us. Salute .

Saying All Lives Matter or holding arms during the national anthem is what really makes you a c00n and dangerous to the black community so you can die a slow death neega

 

[Skrilla]

And also protection.

But it's a lot safer to NOT bang and this is extremely obvious. nikkas have a better chance of staying alive and not being thrown in the cage for decades if they DON'T get involved in that shyt.

But yall wanna call nikkas who tell the truth about this, "cornballs" and "sheltered" i lived in the hood for years until we finally moved, i knew some of those nikkas and i still never joined a gang, and i know some other black men like me who can say the same. I know firsthand that banging, selling drugs, getting high all day, flossing etc just seemed more appealing to some of them than going to school, doing homework, and doing "safe" shyt. A lot of them did have a choice, but banging just seemed more appealing because they were lazy and wanted instant gratification, even though it often leads to early death, jail time, ruining your chances in life etc.

I'm glad i didn't follow the rhetoric that a lot of nikkas in here are spouting, if i did, I'd probably be dead or locked up right now.



And I think some of you are describing how gangs were before we were born If it's still supposed to be about 'protection' then these nikkas do a horrible job of it.

If i compare the nikkas i've known who were in gangs (or even affiliated) to the ones who weren't....a lot of them are in jail or dead...or struggling to find or keep a low wage job because they have a criminal record....compared to the ones who never got involved with that shyt in the 1st place, yall can call them "corny" all you want but they generally are doing better than these set-claiming nikkas.

This gang shyt is lame....it's sad that so many of us still try to act like it does anything positive at all, or that most of them had no choice etc....a portion didn't but a lot did,if we're 'forced' then why do black men like me exist, who saw it happen around them, never got involved in it and made something of ourselves?

I hate how some of you make it seem like nikkas have no control over what we do, the stuff yall say about black men sometimes, honestly sounds like something an old redneck would say, you make it sound like we're too dumb to figure something else out

That's exactly what they'd say they wouldn't be like "thanks for sticking up for me bro have a brewsky"

They'd tell these nikkas who are trying to "explain" on their behalf, "Why the fukk you care what i do nikka? Better mind your own business bytch before i fukk you up"

they definitely wouldn't 'appreciate' it, so i don't know why these nikkas feel the incessant need to explain or reason from the gang members 'point of view'. Wtf?

Remember, these are same cats who go around trying to flex on and beef with random black men, meanwhile they'll allow Habib or Juan who runs the local corner store/gas station to call them "nikka"

 

[BrandonBanks]

Yeah...i hope some of these nikkas don't have any sons. They'd probably pass down this same mentality of "not having a choice". Then their sons will be weak-minded and then they'll wonder why Gangmembers don't even appreciate the excuses being made, there's absolutely no point in making any

 

[BrandonBanks]

"B-b-but it's about protection, safety and brotherhood"

 

[BrandonBanks]

No, you say "participating in gangs is some of the most c**n shyt you could do." You are insulting those people you don't have the slightest understanding of.

But the demographic he's speaking of are some of the most crab-in-a-barrell ass nikkas in America. They don't exactly give respect where it's due themselves They rarely do. They of all people, look down on and knock other black ppl for some of the dumbest shyt. You go to school full time and taking it seriously instead of sitting in your baby mama's apartment smoking weed instead? You lame. You haven't did time? You lame. You don't know who some new rapper is (or care)? You lame. You never go to this club where nikkas be getting shot at every Friday? The hoes be there! You lame. You won't ask your mama for money? You lame. You ain't wearing J's? You lame. Etc. Their "rationale" and dumb decision making goes on and on.

And they wouldn't separate those who are defending them from those who aren't in here. They'd call everybody in here a p*ssy or a broke nikka or some shyt, regardless of who "understands their perspective".

I'm from the hood and I know for a fact, that some of these dudes who CHOSE to bang could've even went in the military instead. But that's hard work where you have to EARN things, and they didn't want that.

I just had to pass a written test, piss clean, and show up for meetings. They even gave rides if you didn't have transportation.

I also knew some who could've went to college (even the local community college like 10 mins from their house) for free, grants would've paid for their books, tuition, etc but they chose to bang all day instead.

Most DID have a choice. They jump through hoops to get expensive clothes, p*ssy, weed, jordans, go to the studio etc but not to go to school (even trade school), military, etc it could be done if they applied themselves to that the way they apply themselves to unproductive things.

These nikkas rather bang and have a little small time coke operation trying to make quick money but many end up locked up/in and out of jail, killed, or can't keep a decent job let alone have a career because of this bad decision making. By now we know what path it often leads to, we need to stop defending and enabling this "there's nothing else we can do" mentality.

*Finds it ironic my last tattoos mean "Loyaly & Power"*

Ive never agreed with gangs cause I believe our killing ourselves over fabric is just as bad as white people killing us over our skin color...

On the flip side I came up with gang members & understand their reasons for joining... A lot lost loved ones & go with who they know gon ride... Id never officially join a gang but best believe if I found out who killed my Brother Im in that car "PARTICIPATING"...
