WATERS Jr Hi 1970s Guys sat in the school cafeteria and milled around their lockers in clusters, waiting for people to walk by so they could make fun of their looks and dress. It was a widely practiced art they called jonin, a spin off from the older art of playing the dozens. Good jonin required a brutal wit, a sharp tongue, and a thick skin. It usually started with a challenge, an offhand comment about somebodys looks or clothes, followed by a retaliatory response. Once a jonin session got started, everybody crowded around, listened, and instigated to keep it going. Me-White, WIfe-African American Cherokee Indian-That being said, We as a mixed marriage couple laugh and yes, now cry for these two men! The culture itself leads to confrontation-Name changing is just one of our fiery conversations around the table! Why do most change thier street creds? Idiotic! Its a chance to be a star, to emulate what you see on TV Therein lies the problems and issues! Any person of color role models on prime than videos of gangs, thugs, and drugs? Anytime we hear or see younger kids, my wife and I shake our heads! We can see the anger and hear it in the words! Tragic! All kids want to be today is famous! Serious white walls live check is in order! its a nasty pastime by angry people who have no respect for anything. you try to make it sound like its poetry and hardly ever ends in violence. isnt that special. up is down. good is bad. bad is good. everything i say is a lie. im lying now. yup makes sense somewhere. Sometimes when I battle it get so real that its like you cant take that cut Not really its sad that some people get that upset the have to shoot it out to get respect back. Im thinking that the people doing this street music battle should try try try to be smarter. What are we a bunch of animals running around the yard. How My father survived the Bataan Death March, and Korean War 4 yrs as a POW only to come to Portsmouth, VA to get gunned down in the street like a dog robbed. So much for fighting for this country. but that is the culture today! I had 3 so called street rappers try and relieve me of cash in Elizabeth City a few months ago. Only details I will give is that I told them they dont want to be showed my weapon on my hip and told them to straighten up. Some people today believe that they are entitled to take rather than work for what they want! am very sorry for your loss! I meant for those who kill current, former military and war veterans. If its good enough fo cop-killers, its good enough for current and former military personnel and war veterans. I would think that spending time in the company of those who would consider this to be entertaining could be hazardous to ones health.
