I saw a BLACK COP quote his BLACK WIFE's FB page on how 'black on black crime exists' and 'protesting against cops for killing black people is discrimination'

Of course it was on the hellsite. You'll be happy to know I remained calm while blocking him and everyone who liked the post, and everyone we shared connections with.

phew the coonery.

I wanna clip out As Told by Kenya's quote when she breaks down why that's a stupid argument: people of the same background will likely live in the same neighborhood. So of course black on black crime or white on white crime will be higher because people committing crimes will usually do it in their own neighborhoods and communities where the majority of people look like them.

Frank? On an FBI watch list? For... what? Lmao

Someone on IG defended Gerard for just posting a black square and nothing else because “he’s probably taking time to gather his words” since he has a large platform. Meanwhile, Lindsey Way (his wife) has no issues tweeting/RTing anything 🙄

ETA: apparently it was because of a song he wrote/sang?

LeATHERMOUTH has a song called "I am going to kill the president of the United States" and he sang that live once, when he went home, the FBI was there with Jamia, they made him promise he will never sing that song again..

Lindsey Way had better watch her retweets before people start pulling up old Mindless Self Indulgence lyrics from when she was Lyn-Z. Because she rocked out pretty hard to Jimmy Urine screaming the n-word and calling people in the crowd the f-word. Also, those words are in half their songs. It’s fun to be an ally now, but you encouraged an entire generation of impressionable white kids to scream nigga with the hard R. Fuck a friend with a bike, I heard and saw that shit with my own eyes.

She has a ton of MSI fans that are in their teens now tbh. A lot of young female bassists that look up to her.

I did know that MSI had a song with the f word but with N with a hard r? Jesus... I wonder if the fandom will call for her and the band to apologize for it like the MCR one called for Frank to apologize for having dreads during the Bullets era

*multiple songs with the f word and their first CD literally has “Strictly for the hardcore n****z” written on it.

He said city officials objected and would mount a legal challenge if attempted. https://t.co/ght9FGUvix

A fan, who would know better than me tbh, claims that because Frank is on a FBI watchlist so he can't say much which.

His dumbass wrote a song called "I Am Going to K*ll the President of the United States" back in 2008 and wore a mask when it performed it live.
