***EDIT***
Well let me start off saying that everything I have gone through in my life I would not trade it in for anyting for my experiences have made me who I am. Now this past Monday 4/21/01, one of my friends was killed. He was definitely far from an angle. But man I tell you he did not deserve to be shot in the back of his head. I got out of work to hear that "Mata" was killed. As everyone does your like no siir stop kidding but it was far from any kind of joke. I am an emotional person ima libra but I didnt cry then. I dont cry for men. But at his funeral that thursday I cried and shed tears but not like some of the people there.
Now do=uring the ceremony you have people shouting out sooowoo bang bang blood gang. Now some of you know wht that is but im sure none of you now any people who try to claim this. Now if your friend died you man someone you would risk your life for why would you still scream this stuff out? I am just confused by what people think sometimes. The street life is no life to live or glorigy because eventually your going to do if all you know how to do is hustle and all that other non-sense. These people need to learn and grow up because the REAL gangs are not here on the east coast. West coast is where a lot of it started and people that I knew since i was young now try to claim to be BLOODS. Its like where ever you go in my hood you gotta watch your back and be aware of EVERYTHING going on around you. I am a very alert person but walking down the street is like i am in Baghdad...and I am getting to a point where i am going have to resort to stupidy because i feel threatned. Things are getting out of hand in this world and the more i see things is like yes someone needs to put a end to all this or wake people up. 2012 I am not a religious man but damn too many things reference 2012 and the last year where things are either going to end or change dramatically and I hope people can get over being different because as a people..a race of people we are going to have to fight for our own survival one day.
