Another Athlete has been murdered!!!!

[Esther]

First of all R.I.P. to Vernon Forrest and condolances to his family.
I have question regarding your retort to Peachey Sweet's statement. I'm not from ATL, nor do I ever want to live there, but why is it that she states that the crime increase is due to NO transplants, she's acting like a CAC?
No disrespect to NO folks, but what does the fact when the majority of crimes are committed by people who look like us and possibly committed by transplants of NO (or ATL residents for that matter, she's thinking like a CAC?
Its no aim to defend Peachey Sweet, I just curious.

White people distort numbers. Any person with half a brain knows this, so why would I contribute ATL crimes to N.O people. If numbers on the crime rate exist (before and after Katrina), in many areas it can be flawed like:

Does it keep track of transplants from other cities like Florida, South Carolina, New York etc. If you live in Atlanta and don't actually 'come here on visits' you will know that Atlanta is filled with people from other places. Secondly, does it keep numbers on the connection between crime and the global depression. Fact is, people commit crimes when the economy is bad. We were in a depression long before they mentioned it here in the United States.

I just don't see how someone can comment on something that they don't even live in.

 

[max-dawg]

Vernon was the guy who owned Sugar Shane Mosley. They could fight 10 times, and he would win all 10, Kinda like Tyson and Holyfield. R.I.P.

+ 1. and the vernon vs shane fights are the perfect example of why they say, "styles make fights." shane couldn't penetrate thru vernon's defense, didn't have the power to hurt him, and vernon kept that jab in his face.

No fuck YOU...Atlanta was aight before Katrina...now its FUCKED UP!!!

And they WON'T LEAVE!!!

yeah, atlanta was paradise before katrina.

bottom line: them louisiana niccas, some of them kin to me, have migrated all over this country and caused a crime wave that has prolonged for 5 yrs starting next month. there was no crime anywhere until katrina unleashed these niccas on y'all.

translation: lock your doors, run and hide.

Your thinking like a cracka, they tell you these people (black) are violent and contribute nothing to society and you believe it. I'm from Louisiana and I've lived in Atlanta for many years and the fact is that Atlanta has some fake ass bitches that want to blame shit on other people. They don't blame the Mayor for fucking up their shit and being connected to drug rings and shit.

Say what you want about Louisiana (all parishes stick together) but at least we aint some fake ass muthafuckas.

no, we ain't fake, bourgeoisie, hypocrite, gang-banging type niccas. Louisianians started migrating to atlanta way, way back in the late 80's... looking for work because the state was economically depressed due to super duper low oil & gas prices.

there was no crime wave then, and there is none now.

you mufuckas are just like the people of houston. as soon as ANYTHING bad happens, the first thing you hear: "it's those damn katrina niccas." houston wasn't paradise before katrina and neither was atl, dallas, or philly.

now white folks in katy, tx are complaining because NOLa niccas done took over all the skill positions on the football & basketball teams... causing 2 coaches to get into a fight over recruiting a few of them.

I think he ran a group home for handicapped kids.

I got real mad when he tried to give a shout out his handicapped kids after beating Shane the second time and that bitch Larry Merchant said, "We don't want to hear about them.."

I am starting to realize how serious CACs are about sports entertainment. It trickles down very hard even to white fans. When black athletes start looking beyond the sport and seem well-centered and focus on more important issues these CACs get very heated.

[SmuTTy_RaNKS]

Actually the N.O. transplant thing is a pretty accurate representation of what's happening in ATL and other areas.

ATL and other cities had their problems but issues that are unique to NO are being spread into cities where they migrated to during the disaster.

How the fuck these boo boos leave a tragedy and have a chance to start over and bring their bad habits and fuckery to another city.

Just proves there is such thing is a good and bad people no matter how you slice it.

Destiny's Child Inc.
Forrest's passions begin with his desire to help the mentally challenged. Creating a blue print for charity and assistance to those without, he helped to create and establish Destiny's Child, Inc.; (D.C.I.) a group home that provides housing and assistance to mentally challenged adults the home provides 24-hour supervision by trained mental health professionals. Currently Forrest is no longer involved with Destiny’s instead he is concentrating on his boxing career.

I share your sentiment cause trust me I'm about ready to leave the neighborhood I'm in now. @ the same time though I gotta question why cats that have money put themselves in these situations. Stopping to put air in your tire in a questionable neighborhood where you feel the need to be strapped @ 11 @ night I can't help but think this coulda been avoided. And reading the story it doesn't sound like the perps made off w/ the car. Sounds like the situation was well and done and he still chased them on some cowboy shit. I'm not passing judgment either cause I done put myself in hot areas where I ain't need to be and I knew better and just got lucky that niggas ain't really try to press me hard. Some these brothers though need to learn how to enjoy their money and keep the fuck up out the hood though.

"The victim and suspect became involved in a brief foot chase"

*Edit*

The "funny" shit is there was a thread about tires and shit where niggas was talking about how vulnerable you are when putting air in your tires @ these lil hood stations and shit. Ever since then I put shit in my tires w/ my shit right in my other hand. Cause cats do be tryna sneak up on you like that.

 

[akman]

R.I.P. Vernon. 2009 has shown us many tragic deaths of famous people. Perhaps those who live in the spotlight are beginning to more accurately represent what the rest of society has been going through for years.

People wil care more and attach more significance to this because it was an athlete here, but it just shows we all have some of the same vulnerabilities in life. Too bad this had to happen.

That's ignorant. You should just be tired of the regularity of the "regular nigga moments." People act like one athlete is worth a couple hundred normal people.

It's too early in the morning for arguing about bullshit. If you would just ask me why I said what I said I'd tell you I put more emphasis on him being an athelete cause he has the money/resources to COMPLETELY avoid this type of bullshit. There are always going to be thieving ass muthafuckas out there so I'm not gonna be on some wish upon a star shit thinking that certain niggas will stop doing certain nigga shit.

You speaking the truth brutha. The cats who don't want to hear the truth are fucking ignorant and are the primary reason why there is a lack of progression in a lot of parts of the black community. And calling you a Cac is just their naive way of not wanting to hear the truth.

For the record I am not able to vote in Atlanta's elections...nor do I live in the city but I do go to the city damn near every week for one reason or another.

What the fuck does Atlanta women have to do with this man's death?

Look at all of these great ideas she has envisioned for Atlanta!

Will she get your support?

Pretty much.

 

[slewdem100]

from boxingtalk.com

Other than the information already reported by various news outlets, Boxingtalk understands that one of the suspects may have grabbed Forrest's wallet and ran while he was putting air in his tires. An armed Forrest allegedly chased off the suspect, who ran into the woods, at which point Forrest gave up the chase, likely because he was with his girlfriends child.

Seconds later the gunman resurfaced, shot Forrest in the back once and fired several more shots from point blank range.

Man I couldn't have said what you uttered any better! I live far away from the hoodrats,thugs and gangstas for a reason! I'm not rich, but I value my freedom, my family's safety and my kids education. Just like you, I focus my efforts to help those young people in the military (Navy) to avoid the mistakes I made and to leave that hood shit alone.
As for venturing into the hood...If I can't find what I need in Flemming Island, then I can do without it!
