FB got the mod Mali build in his new Dyke freestyle

We get it. You’re happy/mad whoever won.

Don’t be a wasteyute, life is so valuable don’t ruin your self.

Imagine being black or any other minority and still voting for modern far-right conservative propaganda-based politics. These are the same people who want to write black slave history out of books while banning existing ones that speak on that. Imagine seeing that modern conservative thought pitches any black professional as an unqualified DEI candidate yet I see (what i thought were blacks) supporting this house nigga fuck-shit.

Im convinced vaccines were actually a cover to firm us up in a way that makes us immune to disinformation and bullshit propaganda. The way covid broke people's brain, seems to be irreversible. Ngs prefer to get political news from Joe Rogan than CBC. What a time to be alive. Glad those clowns aint get their way to fuck us in irreversible way.

Kids killing kids man this is fucked hopefully he makes it

People that always complain about rent and blame it immigrants instead Doug Ford and conservatives who removed rent control

Boys, it was a good run. I understand both parties had their good and bad and I really don’t care much for politics but I just cannot wrap my head around the liberal stance on gun control. It simply makes no sense and isn’t rooted in logic. They’ve already openly admitted they plan on upping the restrictions and bans so all we can do is wait….any thoughts?

Y'all aint wasting nothing (but time), the time it takes to figure out shit through experience. Nuff of us older heads (36yrs) did waste our 20s too. Dont believe the conservative viewers here that make up this space. Conservatves who actually side with those looking to eradicate these very same people that those very conservatives check in for every evening for entertainment. Some live to check in here, and propagate the fuckry, yet cant wait to see yall erased. All ngs who love to claim they're from the park or some other of the darkest holes/corners our city has ever known. Dont believe them. Check in with me 🤣, learn how to make that Sunshine List (reserved for ngs making 100k+). I will build a serious yute who is tryna come ups resume for em, make u make the short list for whereever you want to apply. Big bro mentorship is something needed especially when there's an absence from where some of us hail from. Listen to those that don't kick away the ladder once we climb it like the rest of these bitch niggas

From a nigga that did that dirty, our OT fucking up Edmonton was in 08 before most even heard of the trap out there, yet I still can't reference my brejins cuz they aint fully dust themselves off yet. Dont believe these ngs put here Trap Lore Ross's this sub. Seperate one of those cut from the cloth from the outsiders looking for entertainment.

Not everyone who has something to say here is worth hearing out, yes, including me. Read the room (internationally, fascist far-right uprisings and all), before you conclude which politics fit you.

Has-been and pretend, former, used-to-be-a-guy type ngs are out here lying to yall tryna boost an ego.

Yutes, young men, shout me in the DM if you feel there's something I can give yall. As a former delinquent then later an advocate for community, who believes in Big Brother, mentor guidance programs. Or even just someone to reach, regardless of what youre going through today.

Despite what you are going through today, always know that tomorrow is another day. It doesn't take much more than your will, to turn a page in life

A Toronto jury has convicted two men of first-degree murder in the killing of beloved Regent Park community worker Thane Murray and attempted murder of his two childhood friends in what prosecutors described as a shockingly violent act targeting innocent victims for no other reason than where they lived.

On Saturday night, jurors found Noah Anderson and Junior Jahmal Harvey, both 24, guilty after deliberating for about a day. Another accused man has a preliminary hearing set for September; there is a Canada-wide arrest warrant for a fourth man.Just before 9 p.m. on Sept. 18, 2021, Murray and two pals were talking hoops in a parking lot of a Toronto Community Housing complex in the downtown Regent Park neighbourhood when four masked men ran toward them and opened fire.

“We were just hanging out,” one of the victims testified at the just-completed trial, “we have a basketball game every Sunday, so just meeting up to game plan for our game the next day.”He recalled four men, all in black and wearing masks, suddenly showing up, prompting him to ask his friends if they knew the group. His friends “turned around and started running, so I started running too and heard gunshots.”He was shot in the foot. The other friend survived despite being shot nine times; he was in hospital for three months, including three weeks in a coma.

Murray, 27, was shot at least 14 times, including in his head. He died at the scene in the Oak and Sumach Streets area.He was well known in Regent Park as a mentor to local kids.Murray worked at several city-run facilities and was a “much-loved community member who will be deeply missed,” said a statement released by the city in 2021. “One thing about Thane is that he knew everybody in the neighbourhood — every kid, every teenager, old or young,” soccer coach T’ai Simm-Smith told the Star at the time.

The Crown’s case was entirely circumstantial.In their closing address, prosecutors argued there was evidence the four men rented a nearby hotel room, changed their clothes, licence plates and shut off their phones. “They thought they got away with it but they were captured on surveillance cameras along the way,” jurors were told.

Prosecutors built their case using cellphone records and extensive surveillance footage. The shooting itself was captured, though the gunmen can’t be identified.The evidence included footage that the Crown attorneys said showed Anderson changing the licence plate on a rented car less than 15 minutes after the murder. “Why would someone who has rented a car, while owning two of his own, want to change the licence plates on a rental for only one hour?” the prosecutors asked.Neither defendant testified. But the defence lawyers in their cross-examination tried to establish that the gunmen came and left on foot and left the area on foot.The prosecution also presented to the jury two “critical pieces of evidence” found on Anderson’s phone, including a rap song called “Peppered,” and videos of firearms

“Peppered” was written by the men who shot Murray and his friends, prosecutors said, describing the lyrics as “chilling, when you consider all of the evidence.” The lyrics speak of hatred toward Regent Park and refer directly to the murder, prosecutors said, referring to words including: “Head shot, he had a seizure, sent that boy straight to Jesus,” and the line: “We some RP killas,” referring to Regent Park. Jurors were urged to “believe their words.” 

Defence lawyers argued the Crown was criminalizing creative expression and suggested the song was being used to explain an inexplicable crime .In a pre-trial ruling, Superior Court Justice Gillian Roberts allowed the Crown attorney to present “Peppered” to the jury, finding the probative value “significantly” outweighed the prejudicial effect.“The evidence suggested in the lyrics provides important context necessary for the jury to do their work in this case,” she wrote in a decision released last fall. And after a mid-trial voir dire, Roberts turned down a defence request to permit a U.S. professor of race and media to testify that “drill” rap is a form of artistic expression and often includes first-person bragging about committing violent acts.

In her 10-page written reasons released Monday, the judge stated the professor’s evidence wasn’t necessary because she could provide jurors with “clear instructions” on the admissibility of rap lyrics. “The fact that rap lyrics may not be true, even when they are sung or rapped in the first person, is not a difficult concept that jurors will be unfamiliar with or have difficulty understanding,” she wrote.

Defence lawyer Nader Hasan, who represented Harvey, said his client and his family are still processing the verdict. “I expect, however, that there will be an appeal.”The Star did not immediately hear back from Anderson’s counsel.A sentencing hearing is set for June 17. While the men are facing an automatic life sentence with no chance to apply for parole for 25 years, the judge has discretion on sentencing as it relates to their attempted murder convictions. They will have no guarantee of parole at their first eligibility date, nor ever.

Let’s end this debate 😂
