this statement means nothing now, but where were his parents in his life as part of his primary role model why would they allow for him to listen to gangsta rap if they knew he was so "easily influenced".
What positive male role models were in his life, and did his parents ever tell him to reach for his dreams (as long as they didn't involve killing a cop).
can't no song, movie, anything influence you or make you kill someone or do something like that. As much as I don't like cops He's plain evil. Life is too important and holds too much value to just kill it and then blame it on someone else or something that can't do a thing.
yeah but a lot of black kids are dying in the streets, it 's not more important in france but it's the same segregation ! cop use power, poor kids use violence but it's the same
It is sad. I teach hundreds of kids in the South and many of them go the wrong path. But so many more of them succeed and become young adults that any one could be proud of.
he jury remained unconvinced that Howard's listening to the song caused him to commit an act of violence. Howard placed responsibility in Shakur for "pulling the trigger". He was convicted of the murder."
"In 1993 Ronald Ray Howard, an eighth grade drop-out, was convicted of shooting Texas State Trooper Bill Davidson. This teenager had been listening to the song "Sister Souljah," by Tupac Shakur. The songs' lyrics are: “Cops on my tail they finally pull me over and I laugh. Remember Rodney King and I blast his punk ass.”
whoever says that music or video games made them violent is just a pussy about goin to jail
Dont drop the soap... hehe
