You seriously just said to associate blacks with drugs and guns is racist? Hahahahaha. This article is about offset being caught with a gun and weed. The ARTICLE associates it, and 99.99% of rappers associate themselves with that shit all day. You PC bro? Live in a cave somewhere? All them brothers in Chicago are killing eachother with lollipops and beefing over baseball card sales? Fucking moron. No wonder black America keeps getting worse. Morons like you are in denial. Congratulations. You are one of many black men and women that don’t have guns or drugs. You’re honestly going to say it racist to generalize black folks, rappers, in 2018 that don’t talk about guns and dope? Eat a dick please.
Go to a country music website with that bullshit. Y’all love our culture but hate on us. Yall some backwards bitches
He is lucky shit didn’t happen in NYC. Prodigy, Jadakiss, and Ja Rule can tell him how that system works.
Don’t forget Lil Wayne. I don’t remember Jada doing any time tho…

But he din du nuffin!
So was he the only one in the vehicle? The article states the SUV he was riding in so was others with him and they just slapped everybody with charges?

And watch this black piece of shit walk free, all thanks to the justice system being infested with jevvish lawyers and judges, or their lackeys. If this was a white person, he would be sent to prison for life.
I will make sure this negro does his time.
He did not do nothing! Is he black? Yes! Then that means he does not need to take any responsibility for his actions. #BlameWhitey #Dindu
