The Truth

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

Part of being accepted into the "Gangsta Rap World" is to be foolish enough to carry an illegal gun. If you really want a "Rep And You Are Dumber Than A Stump," either get shot, or you shoot someone!

Some of these idiots really believe that they are on the same level as say an, Al Capone, John Gotti or Bonnie And Clyde.  Armed with "Grills" made of diamonds and assorted other nonsense, and baggy jeans, along with medallions to remind them what their names are, these people who sound like they have a language processing problem, not to mention bastardizing American English, are determined to prove to the world that they are "Gangsta."

Snoop Dogg has been arrested for weapons possession more times than I can remember. Yet, this moron. and self-appointed spokesman for hemp, has never seen the inside of a jail cell for possessing an illegal weapon.  Another rapper by the name of Master P was caught a few years ago with an illegal gun.  He got himself an excellent barrister, who plea bargained the original offense down to something laughable. He ended up doing community service. I bet that gave him a newly found respect for our judicial system.

Sometimes these gangstas end up getting themselves killed. Tu Pac Shakur was murdered in Las Vegas. His killer continues to walk free. The Notorious B.I.G. was killed in Los Angles. His killer too was never caught.  Shakur and Christopher Wallace, AKA, B.I.G., were perhaps the most talented rappers ever to grace a stage. I must admit that I was a fan of both Wallace and Shakur. However, I was not a fan of the violence that they preached. I was a fan of their poetic genius!

There is this filthy mouth rapper who goes by the name of Remy Ma. She comes out of New York City. Remy Ma is also a very violent woman. Although she has made millions in the rap game, this woman has found it most difficult to mentally shift from that ghetto mentality. She believes in settling an argument with either her fists, an umbrella or a gun.

Last weekend, Remy and a "friend" were at a trendy night club in the Meatpacking District of New York City.  The two allegedly left the club, and an argument followed over Makeda Barnes-Joseph allegedly taking money from Remy's purse. As per her way of handing conflictual situations, Remy pulled out a gun and shot her "friend" twice in the stomach. Ms. Joseph is now recuperating at St. Vincent Hospital. Her condition is reported to be stable.

Remy Ma has been released from jail on a quarter of a million dollars bail. On her way out of Rikers Island, Ms. Ma told photographers to "Get the camera out of my f---face."  Ms. "Garbage Mouth" was driven to her Cliffside Park , N.J home.  Friends were waiting for her--along with a barbecue and pool party. How nice, the conquering hero comes home!

This is the problem with these people.  Even when they are faced with serious charges like, attempted murder, assault and weapons possession, they seem to be able to become stupidly indifferent to the fate that awaits them. Ma, whose real name is Remy Smith, spoke to reporters from her second floor window. Listen to the words of this scholar, "I didn't shoot my friend.  I didn't shoot nobody." Either this woman is just plain stupid; or she suffers from being hit in the head too many times. I do not think that Ms. Ma is stupid or that she suffers from trauma to her brain. I believe that the woman is a sociopath and that she think she can regress back to adolescence whenever she gets into trouble. Sorry, but that doesn't work for me Remy.

Now, if she really wants to be "Gangsta," she needs to step up, and tell the truth about the shooting. That is what real gangstas do.  They don't dummy up, the way that Remy Ma/Smith is doing.

Remy has a long rap sheet.  Police in New York City are very familiar with her. In 1996, Remy according to police, settled a dispute with a 15-year old girl in a homeless shelter by striking the young woman in the face with an umbrella.  Leonora Torres was the recipient of the umbrella attack.  Said Torres:

"She didn't even hit me hard, but my whole eye went black and blue. I was coming down the steps and she just jabbed me. It was a cheap move"

Torres is now a cook at Yonkers Raceway. She didn't know that Remy had made it to the big time.  Torres simply said, "I've moved on with my life."  In 1998, Remy was back at what she does best, wreaking violence on some poor innocent soul.  Police say she threw a statue through a man's front window in 1998. As if that wasn't enough, authorities say Remy threatned the man with death.

In 2003, Alvin Lewis say Remy Ma approached him with a gun. Lewis said a friend's daughter told Remy that Lewis slapped her.  Lewis said Ma identified herself as the girl's aunt and said, "you like hitting women."  Lewis said that he told Ms. "Hothead" that he hadn't struck anyone.  Not good enough for "Judge Remy Ma," who is alleged to have placed a gun to Lewis' head and fired. Lewis said he beleives the weapon was a starter pistol. He added, "Trust me, if it was real, I wouldn't have been here."

Lewis said he tried to reason with this time-bomb, but she was irrational.  Remy was arrested for menacing, assault and criminal possession of a weapon and violation of harrassment.  Again, she escaped punishment. She pleaded guilty to menancing, and was given a conditional discharge for lack of evidence. Lewis admits that he didn't testify against this thug becase, "I just didn't want to deal with it anymore."

Nearly five years ago, Remy Ma spent 15-days in jail for failing to follow through on four days of community service. Oh yeah, she was convicted in 2000 for fighting. Hence, the community service that was given to her.

Last month, Remy was stopped by police for driving with a suspended license and illegally tinted window. It is clear that this woman needs to be locked up for a long time. Society needs to be protected from predators like Remy Ma. What the hell are the judges in New York City waiting for? Are they waiting for this sociopath to kill someone before they lock her up and throw away the key?

Last week, she came close to killing "her friend."  It is clear, that this is a very angry/violent woman who needs to be controlled. Jail is a good place to start.

Remy Ma typifies many of today's so-called "Gangsta Rappers."  All of the money in the world can not change the vicious mind-set that they have. These people have a sense of entitlement.  They think that they are above the law. That they can carry illegal guns; attack innocent people, ect.

It is time that this human garbage is sent a strong message. Violence of any kind will not be tolerated. If you engage in violence, you will be locked up.  Then we will see just how "Gangsta" these punks and thugs really are!
