camily said:Exactly right. I am proof you can overcome it and make a great life for yourself and you children. Something I am VERY proud of, not too many seem to be able to do it.
...or if the suppliers (dealers) and their friends did not make excuses about their destructive and illegal activities and stopped supplying, maybe we could fight the war on drugs.eclark said:It's a supply and demand thing, if it wasn't so high in demand by these dumb ass crack heads, maybe we could fight the war on drugs.

eclark said:Like you said you are proof you can do it. (You) not any one else. These crack heads have to not want the drugs. It's a supply and demand thing, if it wasn't so high in demand by these dumb ass crack heads, maybe we could fight the war on drugs.
This is true but the dealers need to realize they can make a life by hard work and not look to the easy route of selling drugs to addicts.eclark said:Like you said you are proof you can do it.

BTW, when I quit I still wanted the drugs, I just wanted freedom from them more.
None of that has anything to do with why he was shot. He is dead because he pulled his gun. If he had left it alone, he'd be alive and in jail right now.eclark said:Okay, I hear every thing your saying, and I agree with some of it, but look at it from this end...
eclark said:Okay, I hear every thing your saying, and I agree with some of it, but look at it from this end. True it is ilegal and wrong to hustle, but we have some many graduating classes every year that go in to the real world and can't find a decent job. The cost of living is high, and unemployment is steady rising. I know plenty of people with a college education looking for a job. So what do
you do? when your out here in the real world and reality sets in, that your not a child and your parents don't have to take care of you, in some cases some people don't have parents or even a parent to take care of them in the first place. So What do you do? when your hungry or your little sister or brother or son or daughter is hungry and you've applied to fast food and still don't get hired or your already working 1 fast food job that don't pay the bills, but you still trying to be legit and look for a better job, but the better job doesn't come. What do you do? Go to the army, I say that because alot of these young people go to the military for a better chance at life, but they don't get it. They get killed and some come back ####ed up in the head and the government doesn't even take care of them. No body dreams of being a drug dealer despite what people might think. It's a war zone on these streets, some people are just trying to survive, every one out here are not killers, or horrible persons, they do what they know. This is the world we were born in to the things that our generation see and go through is real ####ed up.

Saturday night was at this real wild party
They had the liquor overflowin' the cup
About five or six strippers tryin' to work for a buck
And I took one girl outside wit' me
Her name was Loni
She went to Junior High wit' me
I said, why you up in there dancin' for cash?
I guess a whole lots changed since I seen you last
She said
What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor cuz he's hungry
And the only way to feed him is ta
Sleep wit' a man for a little bit of money
And his daddy's gone
So we're smokin' rock now
In and out of lock down
I ain't gotta job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life
Girl, you ain't the only one wit' a baby
That's no excuse to be livin' all crazy
Then she looked me right square in the eye
And said, everyday I wake up hopin' to die
She said, n**** I know about pain cuz
Me and my sista ran away
So my daddy couldn't rape us
Before I was a teenager
I done been through more sh**
You can't even relate ta
What would you do if your son was at home

In and out of lock down
I ain't gotta job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life
(Then she said, what would you do if)
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
(What would you do)
Cuz I wouldn't want my baby to go through what I went through
(C'mon, what would you do)
Get up on my feet, stop makin tired excuses
(What would you do)
Girl I know if my mother can do it, baby you can do it

I understand what you wrote. My brother chose to become an iron worker. I understand that he is at risk daily from falling off a building or having something dropped on his head from above. Those are risks he agreed to by chosing that profession. Just as continuously being arrested and hauled off to jail are risks associated with chosing a life of crime as one's profession.eclark said:I wasn't writing to you, and all of these things have something to do with it, but that's something you will never understand.

Well, I understand what you are saying, but EVERY dealer I knew/worked with had a "real" job during the day or quit any job they got because it was too "hard" and they didn't want to sweat. They got off of being a "gangsta" and talked a bunch of smack all the time. The only one with any sense was the big man who came and dropped his bags off with the squatter every few days and picked up his change. He had a real job also and was the only one making any real money. He was the original piece of crap though for bringing his buddies into it to "help them out". It really only helped him out. Believe me, one lived in my basement, he had NO ambition and was nothing but a puppet with no skills and he liked it that way. His "cousin" paid his rent at my house and he simply sat there and sold. He had jobs every now and again, but couldn't keep them due to the fact that he simply didn't care to work. End of story. I often wonder what came of them when we got the fuk out. Probably in jail or dead.eclark said:Okay, I hear every thing your saying, and I agree with some of it, but look at it from this end.
