Hip Hop Culture - A
Setup and Ghetto Flamboyance
One of the most important rules of the underworld of
criminals is do not be flamboyant. Many
gangsters have been killed or put away
in prison for long lengths of time for breaking this one basic rule. The reason
for this is that flamboyancy brings too much attention to a person and his
associates who is attempting to maintain a low profile. The most successful
criminals in the history of mankind who experienced longevity in the life of
crime did so by maintaining a low profile.
Maintaining a low profile is imperative to a successful gangster or
criminal. Most successful gangsters
became known to the public as celebrities in their aftermath.
Sure many will say, "everyone knows who is involved in
organized crime as well as criminal behavior on the street corners." But
this is not always true, even though it is said. And even if you are known as a criminal it
doesn't help at all to be arrogant and smug it into the faces of law
enforcement. Because by doing so you make yourself a target on the most wanted
list by becoming a public enemy. Any
rational minded person knows crime exist and there are dirty cops that allow
these enterprises to prosper. But bringing too much attention to yourself, your
operation and associates is a poison pill to any business maneuver, legal or
illegal enterprises. The less people
know about you true intentions the better. And if your intend to make a living breaking
the law, you should not boost about it by showing off. And you must have an exit plan
Just like a silk suit worn by a real gangster, hanging jeans
by a street hood is symbol that rings off alarms. The first thing the police or even an
ordinary citizen thinks when they see a Hip Hopper wearing pants well below his
waistline is anti-social behavior. It
is the sign of criminal behaviorisms as well as ignorance. And the first person
on the most wanted list of street criminals are stupid crooks, because a stupid
person breaking the law is considered dangerous. Law Enforcement has a duty to protect the
public from stupid criminals, because they are the type of people who harm
innocent people in the process of their criminal behaviors.
What most people are concerned with as far as street crime,
is the violence associated with these activities. Understand that over 30,000
people are killed by gun violence every year in this country, with over 100,000
shot by guns. These are startling
statistics and because of this a street hood shouldn't do anything to associate
himself with this fact.
Many psychologist have weighed in on the Hip Hop culture and
hanging jeans and have determined that these kids are angry. No rational criminal wants people and
especially law enforcement to think for a moment that he is angry. It is one thing
to be a businessman breaking the law and another to be an angry person
committing crimes. A criminal shouldn't want people to fear him when they can
like him. Because it is one thing to be
ruthless and another to be feared. And
the difference is a feared man is a target to be killed or snitched out due to
fear, because a person will setout to destroy he who he fears and a liked
person is never suspected of killing until he is caught.
Now this is not a lesson on how to be a good crook, because
good or bad being a crook is wrong. But
it is a lesson on ghetto survival techniques. Because often people who play
into these ghetto flamboyant fashion statements are really actually harmless,
yet they are perceived as stupid crooks that need to be removed from the
streets for public safety. And it is sad
because often they take the heat off of the real criminals who hide behind
these foolish actors and shields, not being paid by Hollywood
Why do you think crime seems to never stop, even as many
people constantly get busted everyday?
We all know people who are in jail or recently got busted and is on
their way to prison. Yet crime continues to constantly move forward and is
getting worst. Why? The answer is because the real crooks are not to be seen.
They are not flamboyant on the streets. When they dress up they dress up to go
to church or to work, to show off their new rags. They go by the names Doctor, Mister,
Misses and reverend and not "Stone Dog" or some other nick name. They
are church goers and politicians and do not hangout on the streets getting
drunk and high everyday. But they do
their dirt in the privacy of their own homes in private or among their
clandestine circle. And after they are
finished using the street thug, they are the ones who call 911, because they
are the 411. They know everything, because they fabricate the rules of the
streets.
