50 Cents gets Canadian permit
p2p news / p2pnet: The Canadian government says it’s OK for Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent, the ex-drug dealer turned hip-hop performer, to enter the country, ” just in time for the Dec. 3 launch of his cross-Canada tour and despite the protestations of a Liberal MP,” reports the Globe & Mail.
It goes on that Liberal MP Dan McTeague, “urged Ottawa not to issue the rapper a work permit, which he requires because of his criminal record.”
But, “It’s wrong to suggest that 50 Cent’s music promotes violence,” the story has Ben Trister, the rapper’s immigration lawyer.”
The Globe & Mail points out a, “24-year-old was shot dead after a 50 Cent concert in Toronto in 2003, but the crime took place four kilometres away from the venue, Mr. Trister said”.
A man was recently shot and killed in a Pennsylvania cinema where Jackson’s Get Rich Or Die Tryin’, a movie based on his life, was showing.
50 Cent, that’s my name
Man I ain’t fuckin’ playin’
I move on you wit’ that Mac mayn (Mac mayn)
Come off, now watch your chain
Fo’ I blow out your brains
Shells hit your chest go out your back mayn (back mayn)
See me I put in work, man I been doin’ dirt
For so long when niggas get laid out (laid out)Niggas run through my crib, to holla at the kid
That’s when I start bringin’ them thangs out (thangs out)
Then we go through the strip, hangin’ up out the whip
Dumpin’ clips off at they whole clique mayn (clique mayn)
When witnesses around, they know how we get down
So when the cops come they ain’t see shit mayn (shit mayn)
My soldiers slangin’ ‘caine, sunny, snow, in sleet or rain
Come through the hood and you can cop that (cop that)
I’m sittin’ on some change, G-Unit gots the game
Come through here stuntin’ you get popped at (popped at)I love to pump crack, love to stay strapped
Love to squeeze gats but you don’t hear me though
I love to hit the block, I love my two Glocks
Love to bust shots but you don’t hear me though
From Blood Hound on the Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ album.

And the Christian Coalition supports the distributors of this crap? This one of the reaons that htere is so much Christianophobia in the P.S.A. Organized Christian religion is atheism’s best friend. I may be a Bible believer, but I am sure not a member of organized religion.
Government-cartel alliance = The Beast
Organized religion = False Prophet
That is the way I see it anyway…. Cheers

Go figure: Immigration allows a star with a violent past into the country without a fuss, but it would not let Martha Stewart in until until instructed to do so by the Prime Minister himself. (Incidentally, I cannot recall anyone ever being shot after any event hosted by Stewart, and unless you count all the eggs she has beaten, she does not condone violence)
This is not to say that we should not allow 50 Cent into Canada: what it shows, however, is that Immigration is far from even-handed in its treatment of people wishing to cross our border. Someone over there obviously needs a refresher course on how to assess the risk posed by a person entering Canada. All this nonsense makes me wonder how Immigration treats ordinary people who do not have money, influence and highly-paid lawyers working on their behalf.

Spoken X Digital Media Group got those 21st century lyrics crackin too! Check out these *****Freedom Fighter***** joints playing now on Isound–it gose like this: {The infrastructure of the napoleonatic–
imperialistic state}. . .Mr. Nichols–the imprisoned martyr or judicial
mayhem; either way, the profile is ode to one man that don’t give a damn. Who said he’s a stereotypical rapist kidnapping dealer as he
moon-walked out the courthouse like Michael Jackson of thriller. His friends knew him as a popular guy from the athletic root–
Not as the stranger walking underground in his cool Hannibal Lecture suit–. The arresting,charging,processing,printing,jailing,waiting,busing and trial; the burden of shackles and loss of illusional freedom is as desperate as a crackhead waking up to a world without his vial. The inner-perimeter is that point between two thoughts of the mind;
when the system unlocked that door the ruling judge went dead–blind. It served no good for a sister aiding the system to accommodate his demise: “Don’t conspire to take me down before opening the cereal for your suprise. . .” There’s a misconception that black males are born to be on lock down and its in their nature to go peaceful without a hostile frown. Atlanta said it the best when they applauded the uncle tom police: “Get rid of the real black men so we can get some relief!” Temporary insanity is clearly the federal defense case; that point dissolved after the other alledged murder during the police chase–yours truly, Phantom Poet Graffito X. . .

nice analogies. i believe every word and detail of the Bible. I grew up Baptist. I no longer consider myself any denomination and find it hard to go to a church. I am with you in that organized religion is indeed a false prophet and does more harm then good.

It reminds me of a ridiculous south park episode the way these people can say “his music in no way promotes violence” when you read such lyrics. I am not against 50 cent myself but i wish people would stop accepting this feed.
like sheep to the slaughter…
