SEND HIM JAIL FOR LIFE

FRIEND OF Antonio Franklin on May 26, 2007 12:28 PM

the price of being a man has gone up a real man. remember my brotha

keep your head up and your knees bent all the down... Just got out of of jail now facing doing life; blakman you aint, man you aint. i hope that officer lives. Ur mom'm think something going on with the police against him (finger prints -gun exaust, witneses)hell could be having a bad day he would still be the same.. yo out of every 200 male prisoners 65% over half of them locked up are sexualy active with one another..does any body out here see if the dude just just got out why would you be so stupid to shoot a cop and he know that the boston police and state police know him and the task force from govtment is stepping in...I think Antonio keep your head up knees deep bent and maybe you will receive mercy (and that booty sausage combo plate with extra extra cream and dark lumpy sugar juice). some body gonna love you annd remember son try to get pregnant. tell your husband when you them we said take care of you 4 life... all of this for love, for your boyfreinds and fiansee's..' you could of had a man out in the free world that would treat you with respect and dignity and one love at a time in your precious little fine tight life of virtue. but son remember you will always be you mom's little man and you will be the prisons system little problem and sombodies

I'm no Johnny Cochran but I'm no Charlton Heston either. I just read about another youth that ran and was subsequently killed by a Police officer. We must teach our children not to run from the police. When confronted by any officer in uniform or plain clothes. Do not resist. And follow "ALL Commands." Police Officers are listed as para-military. Not after school counselors or babysitters. When an officer says don't move, don't move. Not for your I.D., not to put anything down. NOTHING. Answer all questions and move on...quitely.Richard Pryor said it best. Yes sir, yes sir. No sir...but it's no joke. Life is not like television.
This country will resemble South Africa in a very short time. We all better recognize.

Good kid, bad kid, good cop, bad cop. People are people and when it comes down to it we all do something good and something bad in our lives. I know the good/bad syndrome can be present in all of us. I know plenty of people who are kind to their neighbors & friends at 3:00 p.m. and then at 3:00 a.m. are unkind to someone else . . . . .

And to the comment about listening to the cops, when you are constantly harassed and disrespected by the uniform why would you be inclined to respect the uniform . . . ??
