If you have 80 agents watching a person 24/7 and never saw the man collect any money from any gang member, how can he be guilty of collectin street tax? US Government collect street tax every year, and you better believe if you don't pay by April 15, you will get brutral pounisment. US Government are the true drug lords, and President Bush is the biggest Gang Chief. US Government is full of ****.

Question One: When someone says things like, "They want to hold me down." Who is "They"? It is almost never defined.

Question Two: What are they holding you down from doing?

Question Three: Why do people always assume it is a race thing?

I'm just trying to understand. My questions have nothing to do with the article really, more towards the comments left here. I'd greatly appreciate any explanations on this, thanks!

You might if you learn how to spell, dumb ass bitch.

When you go back to school in August and you are in the 10th grade for the 3rd year in a row AX the English teacher for some tutoring.

Everyone is complaining about the Mexicans not speaking English how about the African Americans?

HHHHUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMM
