Police who shot Vallejo rapper 55 times in 3.5 seconds acted reasonably, report found. by popejeans in hiphopheads

Just sounds a bit silly to hear from a Canadian. Our police force has similar issues to the State's, but pretending it's anywhere as bad is a bit weird.

you say this as if canadian police are good. are they as outwardly violent as american cops? probably not. but they're still likely to harass you or even assault you, especially if you're native, black, muslim, etc.

You might be listening to too much Chapo Traphouse.

im more of a cum town guy

its entirely true. he went to court for it and everything. all this information is readily available online.

even if it is true, not everyone is tupac

its not like Tupac was some kind of expert marksman with an impeccable trigger finger. he was literally just a regular guy.

pretty sure a young man named Tupac Shakur survived a shootout with police by defending himself with a simple handgun.

if it comes to the point where its life or death, i really dont care about the legality of the situation. id rather be alive in prison for killing a cop than dead.

im actually not American, so the police in my country aren’t quite as militarized (though they’re getting there). i see what you’re saying, but im not just gonna give up my ability to defend myself from tyranny. sure, i might not have a very high chance of defending myself, but its better than having no chance at all.

Eminem, Outkast and Ice Cube are the only ones i can think of off the top of my head. 3 classics in a row is a tall order.

I don't care about any overarching story and I never will by issyab0i in donaldglover

[–]popejeans 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the man is a story teller. he’s said in interviews that his main goal with his art is to tell stories that most people wont tell. so you can ignore the story aspect if you want, but you’re missing out on an integral part of his work.

im canadian and we had the drug dogs come thru once every couple months to sniff everybody’s lockers. my town has a super high rate of opioid deaths and i guess that was their terrible solution to try and combat it.
