why does this whole documentry sound like an intro

[MyAb111]

They were smart for their age. What a waste of talent & leadership abilities. USA was booming in the 80s. They could have got rich a million different ways. Alpo could have been an actor. They could have invented something. Instead they chose drug dealing, original. Alpo: why do black people have to so loud and the center of attention all the time? And what kind of person kills his childhood friend over worthless paper.. why not kick his ass. Thats what happens when scarface is your role model.

@MyAb111 This is the same way Jews, Germans, Irish, Italians, etc lived when they were at the bottom of the barrel and dirt poor. Go watch Gangs of New York if you're too lazy to actually read history.

[MissLJones24]

The same determination and drive to be the next 'scarface' could be used in a more positive area to better their and their families lives plus keep them alive and out of the pen. Yet they choose(yes its a choice lol) to use the quick/deadly route to get paid. Its a damn shame but somebodys gotta do it.

[navijatt]

they got rich because they were " allowed " to get rich...not because they was special..lol

most ppl hav no idea who controlls the drug trade...these poor black kids on the streets are just the bottom of the ladder..

[clevelandondeck2166]

@clevelandondeck2166 also drug dealers were killing other drug dealers and stick up kids so they (the gov.) is loving it. Then once they build a case on you you get time in prison. Then they take that drug money and put it in their pockets not the fbi,police etc im talking about the gov. So they thought of a way to kill off black people locked them up and make money. But hey thats the way of the world

[clevelandondeck2166]

@MyAb111 i feel like when black people are put in a position basically being raised in the ghetto and they watch these tv shows and she the rich with all their materialistic's they want that. So when they see that they say shit we can sell drugs or rob and who brought the drugs in ? not the mexicans itallians columbians none of them. It was the government they thought of an way to kill of the majority of black people in that community by them using drugs
