Sunday morning (July 17), three Baton Rouge police officers were shot dead and three were wounded at Hammond Aire Plaza and Baton Rouge native Boosie Badazz took some time out to address the fatal shootings on his Snapchat. He says that the community is hurt over the killing of Alton Sterling and the officer who killed him should be indicted.
When video footage surfaced of 37-year-old Sterling being shot and killed by a Baton Rouge law enforcement officer for allegedly having a gun, it caused an uproar throughout the community leading to hundreds of protests across the country.
Less than 24 hours later, another unarmed Black male, Philando Castile, was gunned down by police in Minnesota.
“I would say that the Alton Sterling incident played a big part,” Boosie says of the most recent shooting on Snap. “The funeral was just the other day so a lot of people are in their feelings. Even the older generation, not just the younger generation, even the older generation are upset about it. They are angry. There’s lot of people angry. Everybody that I’ve talked to are mad.”
The 33-year-old rapper has previously expressed his feelings about the social injustice and police brutality that has been plaguing America lately and offered a simple solution: convict the officers who are killing unarmed individuals or he says there will never be peace.
“I don’t think it’s going to stop until they start convicting these [bad] officers of what they doing it will just keep on escalating,” Boosie continues. “And if that guy don’t get indicted and sent to prison for life, it’s going to be another war, it’s going to be another shooting and it’s going to keep going on.”
Despite the high tension ventilating throughout his hometown right now, Boosie encourages those who are fed up to keep their emotions under control.
“I just tell everybody to calm down and let’s just try to find a better way,” he said. “I don’t know another way, but I just say calm down and find a better way.”

What a fucking ignorant moron.
No justice no peace
Justice alone does not matter, stop killing blaqs.
All of this race baiting bullshit will just keep filling the prison system. You are all faking right into the trap. Willingly. Fools. Don’t carry a concealed weapon legally if you have 40-50 tickets in 2 years. Don’t carry a concealed weapon illegally if you are a convicted felon illegally selling CDs. Don’t carry a switchblade on you, is this 1950 something Fonzie? Don’t KILL COPS. LOLOLOLOLOL. Don’t dress like a gangbanger asshole then get all upset when the cops search you and find a reason to take your dumb ass to jail, or shoot you. Think…
“Don’t carry a switchblade on you, is this 1950 something Fonzie?”
You think this sh!t is funny, don’t you? You probably one of them oreo type ni66as, born in the ‘burbs with a silver spoon up your @ss, never seen or been to the hood outside of videos and movies, and you want to get on your soapbox and tell ppl who really live this life everyday how to do it??????? And that’s if you’re black. It’s mf’s like you that’s gonna bow down willingly when the time comes.
Or over…..
Right. Carry some brass knuckles. That’s really “living it.” A switchblade or a bat with some nails thru it is a good look in 2016. Sarcasm. Don’t get caught slipping period. That includes being caught by the cops. Actually specially by the cops. Ni66as ain’t trying to go fades or shoot a fair one with me. 39 years old running around these streets making money, fucking bitches, smoking blunts… No one fucking with me ever, including the cops, because I ain’t fucking around. Fools know what time it is. The suberb I am from is isn’t a suberb, it’s that Westside Los Angeles. The birth of the Bloods and the Crips, Sureno gangs, 18th street, MS13… You might hear copycat motherfuckers in your town telling Westside trying to copy our shit. Lame. Black has nothing to do with anything. Stupid has no color.
This motherfucker is talking like hanging at a park with a pistol is some real nikka shit. Getting arrested with a slingshot and shit. In Bmore? One of the most dangerous cities in the US? GTFOH.
