Whenever you hear “hip hop community,” think of these thugs:

I was shocked to learn that two of the ‘Jena 6’ boys were recently award presenters at the 2nd Annual BET Hip Hop Awards. Bryant Purvis and Carwin Jones presented the award for Hip Hop Video of the year and thanked the hip hop community for their support during the Jena 6 trials. But wait – why should these two make an appearance among the accomplished hip hop artists of today? Why are two men who were charged with attempted murder and conspiracy being propelled into celebrity status?

Because they beat up whitey. They got whitey. Whitey got what was coming to him. Whitey made a symbolic attack. Whitey is a bad guy. Whitey is the devil.

If the boys were not punished at all, they still beat someone unconscious. How is this to be praised? How is the black community supposed build itself up, decrease violence and poverty rates, eliminate violence and obscene lyrics and ideas from music when they prop up people like these two as examples?

If violence in the “hip hop community” and the “black community” (what the hell is it with minorities and communities?) were to disappear tomorrow, all the thug pieces of shit rapping and the hypocritical douchebags that praise their every word like Al “Gotta Love Parachute Pants” Sharpton and Jesse “Shakedown” Jackson would have no jobs. The black “community” has no interest in getting rid of the hate that permeates it; they just find a million different ways to excuse it and they get out of having to deal with it by crying that in the 1960’s in the South and in the 1800’s, they were slaves and abused. Apparently, you can do whatever you want as long as you had some shit in your past; whether it had any bearing on your life or not.

These thugs that beat up this kid nearly to death are no different, and the fact that the “hip hop community” is honoring them at an awards show proves, at least to me, that they’re a whole lot more interested in the “gotcha” then they are about making peace and decreasing violence.
