This comment appears to have gone overlooked so far but do you think that things would have ended better for him if he had been armed. He got robbed but he’s alive. Had he had a gun it would have escalated the situation and I don’t imagine he would be alive today.
I love when people over-analyze. There are people that think ALL…not a segment…but ALL of rap music is about being criminal,drug dealing,etc…etc.
I don’t argue that “Outlaw” Country was received similar to “Gangster” Rap…but look at that statement itself. It’s a comparison of segments of that music genre. So…so…so…did Outlaw country ever get used to stereotype the entire genre???
I hate to derail this thread from the topic…but I couldn’t pass up the faults in that argument.

Where I’m from police have the authority to enter without a warrant for unknown 911 emergencies, which this seems to have been initially. When the police arrived, they encountered an uncooperative person from a residence they just received an unknown 911 call from. As a responding officer, you have to be prepared for anything. Imagine if the occupant at the house was being attacked in the house while the cops knocked on the door for 10 minutes. All the guy had to do was open the door and let the cops determine that there was a mistake. Why this man didn’t do that is beyond me. Any reasonable person would have. Maybe old age or dementia came into play here.
Obviously this is a tragedy, but not enough is known to determine the facts. All we have is the account from the family of the deceased. Conclusions should not be drawn without gathering the facts first.

Screw this, from this and the rest of this thread I don’t ever want to have a fake heart attack, the cops will kill me “with authority.”
The question that is not being asked is how do you go from going from a fake medical call to…being killed by first responders with a GUN?

You’re really not entitled to privacy in public…that’s the anti-thesis of private.

Logic is out the window. I am in awe at that one though because they should be able to see that themselves.

Exactly. Most people don’t even know about it so how does it match up to viewing ALL OF HIP HOP as criminal and negative?
LOL
Loving the banter here. Apparently any discussion of these topics means you hate America also.

I am not saying it was same and it didn’t ever catch on in middle America like rap,but the artist brought an image on themselves and people believed it, and police acted on it. Rap music has a much bigger footing and the backlash will always be greater. I know your probably thinking of common and the recent republican out cry that he was invited by the president and I agree that was wrong.
I really do have empathy for discrimination. I get really mad when people want to dismiss a victim or lay blame on the deceased as well. But you can’t mean all of rap gets miss represented either.
I use to be a bit of a punk rock kid in highschool in Texas. I had every color hair, chains and spikes on my cloths, mohawks and bihawks. I realized pretty quick that while I liked this stuff other people made harsh and immaculate judgements about me. So I eventually dropped all of that crap because I saw I was creating adversity for myself and drawing the wrong kind of attention from school authorities and police. That being said I acknowledge this is vastly different because in my example I can simply change my apperience. I know that African Americans don’t have the ability to change their skin and that their color alone is enough for many to assume all sorts of inaccuracies. However, you are who you associate yourself with to most irregardless of race. I just think mainstream rap does nothing to help the preconceived notions most who don’t like it have towards the artist and it’s listeners. Just to be clear, I wouldn’t want it anyother way and neither would the artist. That image is how they sell records.
All country music should be outlaw country,imo…

Culteralism.
Thanks for the explanation that confirms what I wrote before. You think an entire genre of music is negative…so people who adopt similar styles are also negative.

It is an excellent example in that like most don’t know outlaw country most won’t know a positive rapper. Hence the amount of influence either would have on the genre

Yet increasing a particular government agency’s presence amongst the public in public is another issue than a blanket generalization all together.
