We actually reading that man's text messages and we acting like rap music would have made a difference?

So easy to blame music.

That man is mentally ill. Stop looking for excuses.
Sorry but mentally ill people dont write coherent stuff like that text message. I have family members who are very far on the bipolar spectrum and take lithium and when they are having breakdowns, they are not coherent….

You got a link to that playa that's interesting
Just google search “CIA” “declassified documents” “manifestation” “patterning”…. They don’t want you to have this power but it is so far fetched and unbelievable they aren’t afraid of people who promote it… every once in awhile a celebrity comes out and promotes it (Jim Carey on Letterman back in the 90’s)



If you want to learn how to do it read Neil Goddard, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Joseph Murphy, etc....

The issue is whether rap can influence people to commit bad acts. I say that those acts are committed by troubled people and Rap music just like Blues and Rock and Roll before it are just excuses for the actions.

But there are plenty of troubled people who never commit acts of that degree of violence. Every single nation has troubled people, but not every nation has acts of mass violence. Outside of rare exceptions, acts of mass violence occur when someone's own instability and anger is encouraged by cultural influences that tell them inflicting violence on others is an appropriate means of dealing with your pain, and the means to act on it are easily available.

Violent drill music is by no means the only cultural influence that does this. White Supremacist rhetoric, extremist incel rhetoric, extremist islamic rhetoric, and certain violent nihilist/antisocial internet subcultures are also ideologies that can influence troubled people to act on their issues with violence. We've talked about them as well - there are threads on how the white nationalist movement leads to violence, there have been threads on the nihilistic internet sites that influence mass shooters. Music that literally encourages people to shoot other people doesn't get a pass.



it’s 2022 theres always gonna be a way to get your shyt out there :manny: . Cuz mentally stable are the majority and they want to hear it & they have every right to hear it just lime the artist has every right to make it.

But how much you promote it has an influence. Norweigian death metal was violent as fukk, but it only inspired a small number of violent people because it was so fringe. Little kids weren't hearing norweigian death metal as they developed because general culture didn't fukk with it, you had to go looking. Whereas there are a million ways for little kids to hear violent drill rap because society has normalized it and "non-violent" listerners are promoting it (even on here) until it gets to impressionable minds.

Above the fray.
not only did they leave him on read, they had the damn nerve to share the screenshots after he crashed out. He was crying out for help after after 2 years of grief, he mentioned that 2020 was the worst year of his life, only for it to fall on deaf ears.

It's wild how folk on here shyt on therapy, this brother could have used it to process loss and find healthy ways of dealing with it.

You're not blaming his friends for what HE did, are you?

"Deaf ears?"

What type of training and resources do you think dudes in his peer group had access to?


I get it that people are trying to make sense or wrap their heads around such reckless violence, but fukk him. Hope he rots or gets executed if TN is a death penalty state.

His victims are dead, and their families are fractured forever.

He would have been better off taking his own life instead of killing other people.

I'm not blaming his friends for anything, just stating facts. He was reaching out to a friend and that friend ignored him and posted the exchange after he crashed out and murdered people.

Myself and my own.
I don't get your point, did you ignore the fact that he was also listening to Fire by Arthur Brown, which is not white supremacist? It literally became a meme because of it. If you can find the original video, he was listening to that right before he came out of the car, which is why Brown was so shocked he made a comment on it. Moreover, did you ignore the fact that even the song you're talking about was on Youtube until relatively recently, showing that such can even be found on Youtube, contradicting your claim that these things aren't available?

And none of this take away from the fact that your position claims influence but can't even explain how said influence works, or can even quantify this level of influence. Yet you expect people to act upon your beliefs when it is beyond vague to begin with.

PAT 2 HTown
Ezekiel 9:5-7
Then I heard the Lord say to the other men, “Follow him through the city and kill everyone whose forehead is not marked. Show no mercy; have no pity! Kill them all—old and young, girls and women and little children. But do not touch anyone with the mark. Begin right here at the Temple.” So they began by killing the seventy leaders. “Defile the Temple!” the Lord commanded. “Fill its courtyards with corpses. Go!” So they went and began killing throughout the city.


Shooter name: Ezekiel Kelly
Shooting date: 9/7
