delmar_whyte
feverish

I believe that "Rap" ought to be banned because it promotes violence and slurs toward another peson due to what they are wearing or their sex, a vast majority of "Rap" depicts women, killing others and making violent threats due to what "Color" they are wearing. Boolds and Crips make no sense at all, when we die we turn blue and when we bleed, blood comes out. so either way it is just down right stupid. Some may not agree with me but i think it is indeed stupid. Think about it "Gansta's", you wo...

You may say one each round. It is optional to say who said it, and quotes that you have made up can be used. The quotes you use, should give off your self-expression,personality, and individuality. Shall we get this started? "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the momen...
