I encourage all of you to reach out to the ones still enslaved with that banged out mentality, it goes a long way.
Like i tell everyone, bangin now a days is the silliest idea, especially when you trynna get put on after high-school and so forth.
i just feel the best way to end bangin is to stop killin & beefin with each other. sounds obvious right? let it settle, and think about it.... now what I am trying to get at is that if one set does not beef with or kill a crossy, then the crossy and his patnas would be less motivated to do something to that person/set.
its that simple and niggas do not realize it; dont bang on nobody and you will more than likely not be banged on[especially now a days, as set trippers are phasing away]. do not disrespect anyone from a different set, and you will more than likely not be dissed. dont provoke anyone, and people would be less prompted to provoke you. AND MOST OF ALL, show respect to the next man and he will likely show you the same respect.
i was kickin it with this eastside nigga and brim nigga the other day outside of my house and they kept sayin crab this e ricket that[reffering to other people], and back in my day it would of been craccin, but i didnt even acknowledge it. I let them know who i was and who i was affiliated with, turns out we knew the same people[as always]. they calmed that disrespectin shit down because I didnt come at them foul and they RESPECTED IT. then we started talkin about relationships, e-40, too short, women, subway meals and taco shops, and our family background. that goes to show that respect goes a long way and these niggas was opening up to me and I to them, because we wasn't on no dumb shit and we understood each other.
i just believe that respect is what most people are looking for, and if you think about it, respect can cause peace. we all practically come from the same place, just different people and different situations. I dont understand why beef with a nigga that you probably got the most shit in common with and come from similar backgrounds and you know that he/she is goin through it like you did, if that makes any sense. why make someones day harder, when you know they had a hard life, how more inconsiderate can you be?
you guys take care, and never fly on an opportunity to make a difference in someones life.
