way more likely to reinforce their own stereotype by steady acting like uncivilized animals.

 

sad...but true.

with that being said....

 

keep your children away from white people....they will abduct, rape and kill the fuck out of them.

c'mon dude, i trust you've been around here long enough to know that i understand the difference between class and race.

 

HOWEVER

 

poor white people are not shooting eachother at the mall over arguments about shoes or whatever the fuck these two subhumans got into it about.

 

see above statement.

trust me homie, i've read plenty, and i agree 100% that things currently are a result of 500 years of oppression, however in 2009, what are blacks doing to turn things around for themselves? they are better off than they ever have been before, yet for some reason seem to be turning back the hands of time on them selves. being ignorant was never 'cool' in black culture. 50 years ago older folks would remind you that they died by the millions in order to bring you freedom, now a days.... motherfuckers love dying over some ignorant shit. they pride themselves on that fact. shit is fucking disgusting.

 

the class argument is beginning to apply less and less as blacks do more and more to set themselves back. to glorify ignorance, adultery, addiction, teen pregnancy, etc. at the heart it's all about opportunity, not genetics, but theres a cultural cancer in black america that is trying to undue progress from within, an unfortunately stopping it is seen as 'uncool'. TI has a tv show about helping kids, telling them not to do what he did, but then continues to brag about what he did. which lesson you think is gonna ring louder to these kids? thats yalls people, not mine. not to say there isnt racism still in the world, but at this point yall sure as shit arent doing anything to help.

Bumped... the dude who killed Dolla just got acquitted of all charges.

 

Seemed like the jury was putting rap/rappers on trial... Aubrey's attorney's basically played the "he's a mean violent gangster bully" card and also used some of Dolla's songs/videos to show this.

 

Aubrey Berry acquitted of all charges

Man acquitted in rapper's shooting death

Aubrey Berry said he fired at Dolla at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles in self-defense.

 

May 22, 2010|By Jack Leonard, Los Angeles Times

A man who shot and killed an up-and-coming rapper at the Beverly Center last year was acquitted of murder Friday in a case that focused in part on the victim's violence-laced gangsta rap lyrics.

 

Aubrey Berry, 24, was hugged by his defense attorney as the last of the not guilty verdicts was read in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom. Friends and family of rapper Dolla, whose real name was Roderick Anthony Burton II, wailed and sobbed in the audience.

 

"Obviously, what happened on May 18, 2009, was a horrible tragedy for everyone," Superior Court Judge Michael E. Pastor told the lawyers in court. "The jurors have spoken."

 

Berry testified last week that he opened fire in self-defense in the parking garage of the upscale mall. He said Burton, 21, threatened to kill him near the valet desk and reached toward his back as though he were drawing a gun. Police found no weapon on Burton, who was shot once in the left biceps and three times in the back.

 

Berry testified that Burton had been part of a group of men who kicked and punched him 11 days earlier at an Atlanta nightclub.

 

Minutes before the shooting, the two men saw each other again while dining separately at P.F. Chang's in the Beverly Center. Berry said he left the restaurant in fear and watched Burton leave a minute later and run at him.

 

Berry had a concealed handgun on his hip, a weapon he said he routinely carried after being the victim of several violent crimes. He had a permit to carry the firearm in Georgia and other states but said he did not realize the permit did not apply to California.

 

Jurors deliberated less than two days before rejecting murder or manslaughter charges in Burton's death and assault charges in which Berry was accused of firing at two men who were with Burton at the time of the shooting. Only Burton was struck by gunfire.

 

Outside court, defense attorney Howard R. Price hailed the jury for carefully weighing the evidence and faulted the district attorney's office for pursuing the shooting as a murder, calling the decision "absurd."

 

"This is clearly a case of justice being done," he said.

 

During the trial, Berry told jurors he had learned about Burton through online research after the Atlanta assault. He said he viewed an Internet video in which Burton stood with alleged gang members and boasted about breaking a man's jaw. And he listened to one of Burton's songs in which the rapper glorified gangs and bragged about always carrying a gun.

 

Price described Burton as a violent gang member and played both the video and the song — "Is You Holdin'?" — during closing arguments this week. He said they showed that Berry was justified in fearing for his life when he shot Burton.

 

"His music is horrendous, offensive," Price said Friday as he waited for his client to leave court. "I don't think he engendered any sympathy."

 

Deputy Dist. Atty. Bobby Grace said he was disappointed by the verdict but felt prosecutors presented a compelling case. He said he was unsure whether the rap lyrics swayed the jury.

 

"You'd hate to think that was the tipping point," he said outside court.

 

Jurors told the judge they did not want to speak to reporters and were escorted from the courthouse through a secure exit.

 

Prosecutors argued during the trial that Burton's music was irrelevant. They said his lyrics were simply entertainment: part of a gangsta rap genre that went mainstream years ago. And they accused the defense of victimizing Burton again by characterizing him as a thug.

 

Prosecutors told jurors that Berry was lying about the shooting and argued that ballistics and blood evidence showed the singer was running away when the fatal shots into his back were fired.

 

But Price disagreed, saying Burton was stationary and posing a threat when he was shot. The lawyer said the ordeal of the last year had taken a toll on his client, who was housed in isolation in jail to ensure his safety from gang members.

 

Price said he believed that Berry, who had no criminal record, was the key to his own acquittal.

 

"He was such a lovable, likable person that I think people understood and accepted his version," Price said. "Aubrey could never have won this case if the jury did not believe him."
