Another Subway Tragedy

By admin

rhymefestjournal31- Correction: In Tuesday’s blog I said that the man was older in comparison to the teens. I never suggested that he was an elderly man, his actual age was about 30 – 33. Most likely if he were a senior, no one would have simply stood around and watched. I think that’s interesting.

2- People ask why didn’t I do anything. I did. I turned the video in to the police department because it is their job to round those boys up and execute justice. I don’t believe in that no snitching shit, if you see a crime, report it.

3- “Rhymefest jumps in fight, Rhymefest throws two teens over the rails, they die.” – now what?

4- This was New York subway rush hour. No one around helped. Maybe you were one of the witnesses?

5- Two weeks ago, I posted two links regarding corporations that fund our political process and our overall freedom as Americans. Site #1: http://www.goodguide.com/contributions and Site #2: http://www.opensecrets.org/industries/index.php. I got two responses. So now that I have reposted them let’s see how many comment regarding their substance. Or next week, I’ll just post “old lady gets punched in the face by a bear” and a live video. It seems as though that is the only way to get most people to read and comment.

6- How many people have ever seen a woman get beat in the middle of the street and never helped her? How many of you have seen parents abuse their children and never ran to the child’s defense? I recorded the video to turn into the authorities. I posted the blog for public self-analysis. This was a very interesting social experiment. Many of you look to the celebrity to jump in and save the day. Few people commented about what they would do in the same situation.

Not a punch in the face by the bear tho-

Hey Fest,

Thanks for those links on contributions. I just finished my Legislation exam at Wash U Law in STL which concerned campaign contributions. Anyway, I love your new video Give It To Me with all the racist cartoons. I’m gonna have to go and watch Bamboozled for the 15th time.
