    well of course, they want to make a criminal out of someone who has no criminal record, because they don’t like what he says. they don’t want him talking about the life experiences he lives as a black man in America. well, wrong. my 2 sons (19 when he passed) and my youngest (will be 19 in 2 weeks) never listened to rapp as they didn’t like the vulgar lyrics and all the cussing. they were/are more of the jazz and old school listeners and both were/are musicians, even played in bands. but, i’ve not heard of many long time gang members that don’t have criminal records. but, lets put him in prison for possible life. that’s when they let people like known child rapist out only to abuse a child again like grandpa and the 11 y/o baby, to make room for this guy. STUPID!!!!

      i’m just as confused as you are.

        Right? I am no fan of rap, but, gee’s, what the hell is going on here? How does this guy’s music get him a prison sentence?

        • greenfloyd January 24th, 2015 at 1:20 am

          I doubt he’ll go to jail on this charge, the whole thing will backfire on the DA by only adding to this guys cred on the street.

            Here’s the story, http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-rap-singer-20141120-story.html

            The guy is only loosely associated with a gang, and his music is the link, according to the prosecutor. It seems a stretch by the prosecuting attorney, but stranger things have happened in CA.

            I hope that you are right.

            since when is it against the law to write a song or rap lyrics, based on real life and make money from it? you can write a book based on the “son of sam” or “manson” make a movie out of it and get paid. so what’s the difference?

          • greenfloyd January 25th, 2015 at 12:04 am

            Thanks for the link. For sure Mr. Duncan, aka Tiny Doo, is no slouch and appears lawyered-up real good… because, well you know, he wants to get back to his “art.” Such as it is.

          • whatthe46 January 24th, 2015 at 2:45 pm

            and just think of they lyrics he comes with regarding the D.A. and the justice system now.

          • greenfloyd January 24th, 2015 at 11:54 pm

            It seems like another struggle for hearts and minds. Right now in LA it looks like Gangsta-culture is winning.

  3. greenfloyd January 24th, 2015 at 12:46 am

    It does not seem they have any evidence to prove Mr. Doo “benefited from criminal activity.” It indicates how desperate some local authorities are in dealing with Gangsta-culture, while avoiding the social and economic realities that sustain it and unfortunately expand it.

    However, I suggest Tiny Doo, by virtue of his expression does represent what I think we could call a form of domestic insurrection. He shows us another form of law that millions of Americans, Mexicans and others are forced to live with, and far too often die by. Maybe he could work that into his act somewhere!?

    So wouldn’t O’Reilly be benefitting from the gang activity of that criminal enterprise, the Confederacy? (Who Killed Lincoln – I’m guessing it was Obama’s fault.) Didn’t HBO benefit from the criminal gang known as the Mafia? (The Iceman)

    I’ve come across some lyrics that I thought were crimes against the English language, but I didn’t realize that was prosecutable.

    Yet bundy and his and all militias and teabaggs can threaten the government, President, and pull guns on people and nothing.

    Can we have this discussion AFTER police employees stop lying on the job?
