not what i said.

BUT, anyone walking around with an expensive anything on should be aware of the environment they are in while wearing it. If they arent prepared to fight for their possesions they shouldnt wear them around people who may fight to take them. Its that simple.

Black people get robbed for "flossing" frequently, this is nothing new.

As far as the beating he took, that was extra, but it happens. The color of his skin was not the underlying reason he took that beating tho. Those cameras rolling and him being an outsider they knew wouldnt be able to stop them were. They simply saw an opportune time for them to make a worldstarhiphop video and siezed it.

If he didnt step to the dude like he did after his watch was taken he probably wouldnt have gotten beat up. They probably wouldve just been robbed and humilated him. But once he stepped to that guy he gave him a reason to take it to another level. The punch he was hit with, outside of the punchers power, wasnt anything special, his head hitting the ground was.....

Here's a news flash tho, banking (jumping) and stripping people isnt anything new out here. Its just that now you actually see it happen to someone you deem undeserving its a problem.

This dude was simple. Should he have gotten beaten like this, no....but he also should have been more aware of his surroundings.

no, this is what is wrong with society......a bunch of weak, cowardly people thinking there is nothing wrong with being that way.

It is, you are not intended to be that way

He proved that one with the other post he made about the billboard on Gwynns Falls. It doesn't exist.

You mean to tell me we don't live in a world where we can wear what we want and not have anything happen to us? This is shocking. You know what, I thought it was okay to wear expensive jewelry while being drunk in the middle of one of the most crime-ridden cities in this nation. What has happened to our utopia????

True, too bad he didn't have a concealed firearm on him. Too bad Maryland wouldn't let him anyway.

Yes it really is too bad this guy did not have gun. After all, he was a drunk person being attacked by other drunk people. We all know the situation would have had a much better ending had he been packing heat.
