I feel dumber just for having read this thread.
Agreed. That's fucked up whut happened 2 him though. I've been jacked b4 at knife point 4 my shoes when I was still in High School. It was in my homeboy's neighborhood and these Tongan's approached me and my potna (
at the time). The fucked up part about it was we knew one of the Tongan's younger brother (
he was in our grade and we were coo with him) and he didn't give a fuck. He apparently knew my homboy's older brother and threatened us by sayin' "
if either of you snitch on us we're GOnna kill your family" and he looked at my friend and said "
I know your older brother so he'll be the first 2 die." We were right @ the corner from where we needed 2 GO (
which was my friend's house). We walked 2 his place barefoot and moments later saw them walk by wearin' our shit. We didn't care about that threat so we told my potna's uncle's about the situation and they took care of it (
shit went down; it was over a couple of days). We GOt our shit back (
actually one of the Tongan's who was wearin' my shit went back 2 LA so I didn't get mine but I did get a pair of shoes out of it). I mean there's more 2 the story but I felt if we ran and/or fought with them one of us would of GOt stuck with that blade and material possesions don't mean shit 2 me..especially when it comes 2 my life. Just like Tupac says you have 2 choose/pick your fights/battles. You don't step in the ring if the muthafucka is GOnna knock you out. That wouldn't make sense. I mean be a rider about yours but think logically. I don't know man 2 each his own...violence doesn't get you no where anyway. 2 some prestige means everything but how are you GOnna reap from that when you're GOne.
