I will turn it down only for you. Not for bitter betty! Ha ha
Cabincar: Are you really believing the news? Every channel is biased these days and most are out of touch with "street" issues. Even the cops are.
100% with you on the pants thing though...
and I wouldn't wear plaid if it had red or blue in it...
go orange and green. maybe pink...
"plaid"
So if I see someone with their pants on the ground and their you-know-what sticking out, I'm going to stereotype.
Let's not get offended by that. I hope my children are smart enough to do the same.
really? are you that upset and bitter? does the word "bitching" offend you?
come on, can't we all get along?
You said what you had to, now let it go......
TCY1-lay off a bit. raising a child on your own is hard enough, let alone in these times. Give her a little credit.
I bet I am younger than you and can guarantee that I have more "real life" experiences than you do.
listen...we all have the same goal here. We just need to be smart about it. No need to bash each other.
now play nice!
I am loven you!
What parents are trying to pull kids out of the banging mold? Here's a hint... Its not the ones that are actually banging. Its the kids that want to fit in, that dress like bangers.
If one of my kids was in a gang, or started sporting colors, you best believe that if I can't fix the problem real quick, I am going to turn them in. that's right, I would turn them in.
If my efforts as a parent are clearly not working, I am going to do whatever it takes to get my kids ont eh right path. I don't want them doing the stupid things I did when I was young.
Now, for the parents of the kids that are banging and know they are banging. What are they doing about this? Ignoring it? Turning the other cheek? Maybe they used to be in a gang back in the day so they think its ok for this to happen?
Like I said, kids will be kids and dress with the fad of the times.
Beware of the colors.....that's your sign.
You seem to have it all figured out. Why don't you get out there and do something about it? Instead of sitting behind your computer screen bitching!
First of all, I am a 33 year old father of 3, graduate from the school of hard knocks. During and after high school (went to all catholic schools in the bay) I hung out in the depths of East Oakland. I had a loud stereo, one of the loudest around, and let everyone know about it. In hindsight, probably not cool to blast it at 3am in residential areas-that is a respect issue. However, if I still had that stereo, you best believe that I would show it off.
I also dressed in baggy jeans and white t shirts and ball caps. Still do to some extent. But my clothes more or less fit. Not 4 sizes too big. My pants never hung below my ass and I wore a belt. in other words, when we had to run from the cops, we didn't have to hold up our drawers.
Does that mean that I was a gangbanger?
Now, after hearing what I had to say let me state this:
I have a very good management job where I dress very professionally. I am also as white as they come. I still wear baggy jeans on weekends and ball caps turned backwards (not sideways like an idiot), beanies and hoodies etc...
Does that make me a gang banger?
Its all about the colors. True bangers will have something on them (bandana, hat, shirt, shoelaces, cell phone cover etc...) to show that color. Wannabees wont.
People need to stop stereotyping a whole generation based on what they wear and what kind and how loud their music is and focus on the real issues at hand. I can tell a banger from a mile away, just as I can tell an alcoholic and a tweaker. Call it past experience. If you haven't lived the life, or been exposed to the situation, you can't just pass on judgement.
Besides, some of these kids dress like an idiot to fit in. I think all of us were teenagers at one time. How many of you DIDN'T try to fit in at one point in your life?
my 2 cents
Love, Peace and Chicken Grease ya'll
the wannabe gangsters using BB guns, or the comments that are posted on here.
As far as the loud music, I plead guilty to turning up the volume when a song I like comes on, I'll bet most of us do. The difference is I know the people around me at the red light don't have the same taste I do, and don't want to hear Led Zeppelin or The Doors as much as I do. So I show respect to them by having it loud enough for me to enjoy it, but not at the volume where others around me are having their rear view mirror vibrating to the beat.
The person who selfishly blast their music may think that makes them cool, but personally I think it makes them look like immature idiot starving for attention.
LMFAO, that was a good one!!!
"Sagging: wearing ones pants around the hips so that they sag down and bunch up around the ankles. Originally, this was a prison thing that signified that you were another prisoner's property, ie bitch. Punks were forced to wear their pants this way so it would be easier for their masters to pull their pants down and butt-f--- them. Somehow this became a 1990's fashion trend. I learned this from watching a TV special on prison life. The inmate who related the story was an elderly black gentleman who had been sentenced to life in prison and had been there for over fifty years. He marveled how such a mark of shame became a fashion statement."

Pants On The Ground lyrics
Pants on the ground
Pants on the ground
Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground
With the gold in your mouth
Hat turned sideways
Pants hit the ground
Call yourself a cool cat
Lookin' like a fool
Walkin' downtown with your pants on the ground
Get it up, hey!
Get your pants off the ground
Lookin' like a fool
Walkin' talkin' with your pants on the ground.
Get it up, hey!
Get your pants off the ground
Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground
(Repeat second verse)
-I am guessing her mom (or guardian) called this in. Did the 16 year old return home? If not, can it be considered as kidnapping? She is not a legal adult yet.
