How is a name like that any different than a name like Quinn or Franklin? It's not for attention. It's a name. That's also a rare name I've never heard of. The names used in the studies were the most popular black names in the late 70s such as Tyrone and stuff like that. I'll try to find the report I read.

I just made that name up off the top of my head as a variation of the word unique. The difference is that Tyrone is a real name. Again i do not know the exact study you first referenced but in that study where the names as simple as Tyrone?

The distinction i am making is between legitimate cultural names like Tyrone, Jamal, or Jerome and modern names that seem to come from parents grabbing tiles out of a scrabble bag. Jamal is a legitimate cultural name, Koolaidria is a name made up on the spot to try and make an individual child unique.

Traditional african american names should not be discriminated against, but you cant honestly say you don't understand why someone might look twice at the name Cornbreesha.

You have to realize there is a difference between this and people who are supposed to protect and serve killing unarmed people.

There is a clear difference. These men were 100 mutha fuking percent MURDERED while PROTECTING the people!!!!!!!!!!

Michael Brown, who had just choked a dude out, 100% attacked a POLICE OFFICER that was trying to protect the people the best he can.

Re-read your post talking about how to fix "Black Society".

Again... where did I use the term thugs?

I will respectfully ask once again that if you are going to quote me, then be accurate in your quote. Otherwise, do not attribute my name to it. Thanks.

Did he 100% attack him? Look at the picture and see if you see a man who was "attacked" by someone who was the size of an offensive lineman.

But that's too clever for a rapper. They only promote violence and sex in the Black community.

Can we please ban the troll who believes that sex education in inner city schools isn't equal to sex education in suburban/ rural schools? That, we know, is statistically proven and the root of all the problems.

Are the people who killed them being prosecuted?

One is the other two are dead. So there's no outrage unless they aren't being prosecuted? You don't think much has changed as far as racism in this country? Go to indystar.com and search for Perry Renn. He was killed by a black drug dealer/user. Read all the articles of support for IMPD and Renn's family from that black neighborhood. Things are far from perfect, but they're improving.

Sorry so you're saying he IS a peaceful sort of fellow? I spent a total of 20 seconds looking into his lyrics and found this beauty. The song is called "Burn."

Bomb, yeah, yeah, yeah, this motherfucker down
Yeah, yeah, yeah I will bomb this motherfucker down
You and your whose me and my foes
Me and my foes... you and your whose
Never was supposed, that ever ever was for

*crickets*

He can't quote either one of us, because neither one of us said any such thing. I hope that he got a warning, at minimum, from the mods...

Yup

Back to the scene going wild in the bedroom
Grab the cop’s gun left from leaking with a head wound
Second cop shot, but the bullet hit his partner
Shot him in the leg and he hit a main arter
Now the dirty cop’s looking at me
Talking ’bout he kill a nigga if I try to flee
Shit, I’m about to loose it, so he gon’ have to prove it
All because the government hate rap music
I’ve been labeled outlaw, renegade, villain
So was Martin King, so the system had to kill him
A nigga with an attitude, the world gotta feel him
Educated villain, Intent on living
If I gotta kill a cop just to get out the building
That motherfucker gettin' left dead no feelings
Yelling “Fuck him” as I buck A 45 at his fillings
Trying to knock his brains through the motherfucking ceiling

Obviously a gentlemen scholar...

I guess eye witnesses of an altercation at the car, gun powder on CB's hand, what appears to be a nice red mark on the side of his face at the ER afterwards, and most importantly a jury with an innocent verdict would say yes, but you were there so you would know better!! Lol....you're a comical person!!

Just so we are all on the same page. No indictment isn't the same as innocent.
