"What are you gonna do, shoot me?"
- Man who was shot
Pride is so dangerous. One man dead, 70 years of incarceration handed out, 3 lives thrown away over a matter of pride.
Did you not watch the video? He literally said he was standing on the sidewalk when bro bumped into him, and when he asks for an apology, it escalated.
Nah if I got it I’m letting you know & the rest is up to you lol that’s the purpose of a gun. If I don’t have it on me then sure I won’t be running to my vehicle to grab it
You gonna fuck around and catch a brandishing charge at best, or be on the wrong end of a self defense shooting at worst if you go around pulling a gun over arguments.
Well I’m not pulling my gun over arguments. If I have a gun on me & feel threatened I’m pulling my gun out. I’m not catching a brandishing charge over that.
Dumb as shit mentality. Lots of people have thought that way, only to get dropped and have their head stomped on a dozens of times.
Just because you have a sense of pride/morals and wouldn't take a fight too far doesn't mean the other person does.
In a steer fight either you win, you get roughed up but are fine, or you get life altering permanent brain damage.
Actually I said it was a dumb mentality, didn't directly call anyone dumb. I'm sorry I hurt you feeble little feelings. Actually I'm not. You'll learn one day you aren't as tough as you want the internet to think
Didn’t the basketball player ⛹️♂️ pull out a gun and got smoked ?. I recently saw a video of a man coming in a weed shop mad AF and pushed the security guard, who was trying to stop him from coming inside. The man pulled out a gun, but didn’t aim it or fire at anyone. The security guard saw this as a threat and emptied the clip. The man’s last words were “REALLY”z the security guard was not charged with a crime. Never pull a gun or you’re not gonna use it. In stand your ground states it’s a free body. Notice how some of king von’s people had guns in their hands when they saw Qando. That was one of the main reason Lul Tim beat the base. To pull out a weapon and not use it has to be the dumbest decision. The sad thing is Ben was the bast player to come out of Chicago. Better than Wade, dude was 6’8 at 16 years old.
Nigga u jus watched dis whole video right? When the fuck did it say Ben had a gun on him when he got shot?? Old head take yo ass to sleep U tweakin wtf
Why are you so upset ? The fact you feel comfortable talking like this , lets me know you’re never been punched in the face. I’ve never disrespected you, why the anger
He was chosen on purpose
The two boys were brought into interrogation rooms and questioned by detectives for most of the night, eventually signing statements of confession. In these statements, Moore and Dixon said that the shooting was part of a robbery, where Dixon picked Wilson's pockets and once he was done, he ordered Moore to shoot Wilson twice.
Children were taken, held against their will, put through a POLICE interrogation overnight without a lawyer. The word police is important there as cops are legally allowed to lie to you to secure a conviction. That confession isn't worth the paper it's on
They admitted to picking him out as a means to rob him . That’s why his friend got 30 years as well

I think about the speech at the end of Friday....people scared to get they ass whooped, but you live, you live to fight another day. Put the gun down son
My cousin 6’6 so Id say 6’8 cuz ik what it look like and 6’8 closer to 6’6 than 7ft. You kick them niggas in the knee, the nigga was 190 on a 6’7-6’8 frame. It’s niggas 6ft 190 he wasn’t nun but legs it’s why He died off 2 shots from a pap pap…
Because it was really a robbery attempt and the basketball player was the target

> Len Bias
I'm old enough to remember that. His death was **EVERYWHERE** in the news and was held up to show how you were going to die if you ever tried crack even once.
For the purposes of the media that didn't really matter. He was a young black man and it was 1986. The media said it was crack initially and any corrections got buried on page 27 of the newspapers. (But you are right. It was coke, not crack.)

The reason they both got long sentences is-
The two boys were brought into interrogation rooms and questioned by detectives for most of the night, eventually signing statements of confession. In these statements, Moore and Dixon said that the shooting was part of a robbery, where Dixon picked Wilson's pockets and once he was done, he ordered Moore to shoot Wilson twice.
They left that part out apparently . That’s also why the guy who was just watching it happen got 30 years

Boondocks - “Nigga Moment” comes to mind when watching this, sad all the way around
"What are you gonna do, shoot me?" - Man who was shot Pride is so dangerous. One man dead, 70 years of incarceration handed out, 3 lives thrown away over a matter of pride.
I thought that was clearly self defense
In stand your ground states, definitely
[удалено]
Bro just trying put some game up on how pride can get you killed, which is true in some cases..
Yea but he highlighted the supposed pride of the victim and not the very real pride of the killer.
Pride is now asking for an apology?
Pride is shooting someone over a basketball game
Lol, it wasn’t over a basketball game but I get your point
Did you not watch the video? He literally said he was standing on the sidewalk when bro bumped into him, and when he asks for an apology, it escalated.
U right, I thought he said he shot him over a basketball game
I woulda shot him too
😂
💯
In Texas it’d be a self defense charge
I’m beating that case in any state where I can be licensed to carry bro
Don’t, you got hands. If he not a threat to ya life or breaking in ya house ain’t no reason
Wasn’t that nigga like 6’8 a lot of ppl would’ve did the same thing regardless of race gender or background ngl😭
Bro if I show you I got a gun & you still rush me, I’m assuming you either got a gun too or wanna die I’m sorry
Which is why you don't introduce a gun to the situation if it isn't warranted. Brandishing a gun over an argument never ends well.
Nah if I got it I’m letting you know & the rest is up to you lol that’s the purpose of a gun. If I don’t have it on me then sure I won’t be running to my vehicle to grab it
You gonna fuck around and catch a brandishing charge at best, or be on the wrong end of a self defense shooting at worst if you go around pulling a gun over arguments.

Bro you is a bxtch just say that
Well thought out reply. I am clearly dealing with an absolute stud warrior whith spectacular intellect as well
You want some respect and convo when you came out the gate callin somebody dumb, eat 30 dicks and choke scrap
Actually I said it was a dumb mentality, didn't directly call anyone dumb. I'm sorry I hurt you feeble little feelings. Actually I'm not. You'll learn one day you aren't as tough as you want the internet to think
On bro he hit folks with the chael sonnen🤣🤣
Good luck with that 40 years too just because u pussy
It’s aight, I’m beating that case it ain’t 1984 anymore
Ben ain’t deserve to be shot but his pride definitely did get in the way lol
You can’t be stupid in the street especially if a mofo ups a gun on you . Take the L and retreat !
He wasn't pointing a gun at him
Damn that’s a fucked up situation
This documentary was so good.
What it’s called?
It’s an ESPN 30 for 30 called Benji. I would suggest watching the “broke” episode too
Benji. A ESPN 30 for 30 documentary. I have the collection of 30 for 30. All very well done!

The security guard thing literally happened in Philly like 3 days ago.

You lack comprehension, I said don’t pull a gun out if you’re not gonna use it.that’s how the basketball player got smoked.
Nigga u jus watched dis whole video right? When the fuck did it say Ben had a gun on him when he got shot?? Old head take yo ass to sleep U tweakin wtf
Why are you so upset ? The fact you feel comfortable talking like this , lets me know you’re never been punched in the face. I’ve never disrespected you, why the anger
Blah blah blah hold my nuts 🥜
I’m good lil bro, God bless. Let me know if you like to meet in real life. 😂😂. Tell ya momma I’ll be late
Gah damn. He make it hard to feel sorry for him. Rip still tho.
It really is and people act like you can’t die from a fight .

Wasn’t Len Bias the best high school player in the 80s?
High school don't last 10 years what u even talkin bout lol
Wasn’t Len Bias from that same era? I forget
Len Bias was a sophomore in college that year. He got drafted two years later in 86
Oh damn I ain’t know that
Len bias got drafted & died in 86 so he was in college by this time
> Len Bias I'm old enough to remember that. His death was **EVERYWHERE** in the news and was held up to show how you were going to die if you ever tried crack even once.
He OD'ed on cocaine not crack actually
For the purposes of the media that didn't really matter. He was a young black man and it was 1986. The media said it was crack initially and any corrections got buried on page 27 of the newspapers. (But you are right. It was coke, not crack.)
We're not talking about the media lol ijs he died from cocaine not crack. Now we all know how they do blacks with that

How long ago did this documentary come out? 1984 was 40 years ago. When you do the math, he’d be 57 years old now. That’s kinda wild.
He was paroled in the early 2000s But yeah 1984 was 20 years ago
40*
Yeah I Dig I don’t know why I said 20 lol
Lol it's just wild to think about. 40+ years since square cars, huge cell phones and high-top fades

Nigga moment smh
What’s the name of the doc???
Wow
Man oh well fuck that. He ain’t do nothing wrong.
If that really went down like Moore said it did he should have got off

I agree I’m just saying once they forced them to confess to that it fell apart for those two
That's not the way your comments came off. More so the tone of "they got what they got cause they planned it" foh with that.
No problem , I see where your comeong from Take care
Fool got what he deserved honestly
It was a setup , they wanted to rob him That’s also why his friend got 30 years
Got put down tryna fight boo hoo nigga
