@[email protected] @RealRedElephants Privatized Prisons, apparently (I heard Krazy Bone, a Christian rapper say it and others as well) have a contract with the state their in, (maybe its only Some prisons, in Some states, idk) that says the prison must remain at 90% capacity or higher, or else the state must pay a heavy penalty. So they had to FIND A WAY to arrest people or else pay a penalty fee to the prison. Video games dont cause violence. But when kids are listening to violent music and playing the games, it introduces a different element.... See, almost every violent video game has some kind of moral justification for the violence. You're in a boxing or wrestling ring, or you're fighting "bad guys" for a really good cause, and a lot of times the things you're killing aren't even humans their monsters, aliens, robots... But add in non Christian, violent rap music which talks about just committing violence almost randomly, and it creates a problem for people who are lost and confused. Just because a guy disrespected you or wears the wrong color, or he has something you want, the narrator is gonna pull out a gun and blast em. And they reinforce the idea that, if you Dont pull out a gun and blast the first person to get in your way, that you are some kind of sissy and not a real man. The video games desensitize them to violent imagery and makes them less hesitant but it doesn't ENCOURAGE them to commit violence on random people. Rap music does that. But rap on it's own lacks the imagery. So you may feel encouraged to hurt someone but your gonna be more hesitant. I'm just sharing my thoughts since you said you didn't know a lot about the golden era of gangsta rap. You don't need to address this in any particular way. Just an open chat at this point. But I am aware the black community was targeted and manipulated and its not All their fault that they're having problems. And when they see white Jewish faces behind everything, I don't blame them for thinking "wypipo at it again!"
