i didnt see this post untill my one above posted.
that rhasta stuff is just another thing that people, especially younger people get suckered into, the" GHANJA MAN" alternate society, the fight the power nonsense. all with the promise of peace and love and social justice. saw this same ill planned garbage with the hippies [minus the hate music]. and when they realize [if ever] thats not exactly how it appears, that its just another mind fug [even without the copious amount of idiot flowers] the damage is done. and its to bad. all these alternative religion/lifestyle things that are so prevalent now are a trap door. and keeping ones mind CONSTANTLY filled with substances and the hatred and racism and violence associated with hip hop, a person doesnt have a chance. you become angry at society and everything that walks and all it takes is a how ya doin' and the gloves are off. [wheres bob marley when your drawing down on that cop?]
so, this now makes sense and the coaches definately saw things we didnt and cleaned him out.
its to bad. the change in young people is BAD. the violence and hatred and the "no one disses me" mentality has kids in a grip of social paranoia. kid is talented and has the world at his feet [like so many other athletes] and its a shame they are basically pushed down these rabbit holes of violence and unrest with drugs and hate music. NO ONE, YOUNG, OLD, BLACK, WHITE, LATINO, ASIAN can withstand that. and the worse part? its all by design.
best wishes to mr. bess. but, he has to pay the price, especially going after law enforcement. tis could have gone WAY, WAY worse!! maybe this will be his saving grace and he will look at the things that are fueling his life.
