It's like when they had that video on WSHH of the drug dealer from Luton who sliced that cop's face and some dudes were like "I wish he woulda tried that on OUR police cos they would have shot him up for that. British police are soft, blah blah blah" like a son boasting about his dad. I'm like the same police who use those same guns to kill innocent black men (and sometimes women) in your neighbourhoods all the time AND get away with it?
I don't understand you people. Why should Americans celebrate some European drug dealer? What, because he sells drugs?
Listen, no one is impressed by your little acts of lame british defiance against your peewee herman tea time cops. Your cops don't even wear guns because they ain't afraid of you, period. Our cops are militarized and so it's a different game altogether. In no way are the 2% Carribean immigrants in England "tougher" than African Americans. You guys need to stop trying to act like us. Be yourself. There is no oppression in England but that which you make yourself.
I already seen a yank in this thread bragging about his beloved 'murder rates' so what are you saying'@ some European saying this bullshyt.
lol all this 'being hard' stuff is corny when it comes down to it. What has it gotten us? A lot of brothas locked up making money for the prison system or knocked off the earth. How about worrying about being educated or something that actually produces a societal benefit in the long-run?
The whole thing is just stupid and people on both sides need to grow up.
If it's not fools over here boasting about shyt that serves no positive purpose, there's people like Mr Emotional Crybaby who is an expert on UK black folk in general, snotting up, and sounding like a total idiot while arguing against a bunch of points I never even made and then claiming we mysteriously "make" our oppression and insulting the British cops as if I'm supposed to give a fukk about them.
I've posted videos on here before about the positivity we produce such as the smartest UK family being black. Not once have I boasted about anything negative. But I guess to some people that makes them "soft" because they don't carry guns. SMH.
Usually the people that brag about all these stats and how hard it makes their city usually aren't the ones doing the crime. They want to be 'hard by association.' That or they are very young and still look at all of this as cool. Most of the people that lived deeply in that street life and are in their late 20s to early 30s know that it's nothing to brag about. Friends and families dying, getting locked up, having a record that follows you around so you can't get a job. I can go on and on. All of that death and destruction and nothing to show for it in the end. That street life ain't really nothing to brag about.
JR Writer has a history of getting punked, this is a classic -
nikkas playing his music and changing the lyrics to "got em, gotem"
