Oh, I keep forgetting...white lives don't matter.
Well perhaps you can go down to the trailer parks in the area to gather up support to do a protest rally for these gang members. Let your voices be heard.

I thought busking was a typo of " basking". Panhandling is the best term to use, after that street performing.

Al and Jesse and the other weak minded fools seem to come out to support every thug that dies when they attack a cop. I have to wonder where they were this time?

It's in the dictionary. Panhandling is not the best term to use as it is less descriptive.



busker


verb (used without object)
1. to entertain by dancing, singing, or reciting on the street or in a public place.

You're begging for money. Just to music. It's still in the realm of panhandling. Maybe begging is the best term and panhandling has just become more politically correct. If they're a legit Christian band they'll have Youtube videos of their performances at various venues.

They have; but these were apparently conspiracy theorists with rambling about chemtrails and such and saying odd words like shalom. Doesn't appear motivated by Christianity, so what's your point again?
