Fruits ether reggae concert

Black LGBT Bloggers Against Anti-Gay Musicians

No homo Juelz Santana + a regular one for the picture.
Yesterday, before TypePad took a shit (as it's wont to do every now and again), I brought you the story of a group of online homosexuals who had banded together to try to cancel a reggae concert. Because Beenie Man was performing.

Lo and behold, it appears they've succeeded:

LIFEbeat - The Music Industry Fights AIDS, has collectively decided to cancel its Reggae Gold Live concert, scheduled for Tuesday, July 18 at New York’s Webster Hall. While the organization’s staff and board believe very strongly in the positive purpose and intention of this event, the possibility of violence at the concert from the firestorm incited by a select group of activists makes canceling the event the only responsible action.

Of course the teh gheys responsible for this brouhaha are upset that LIFEbeat is suggesting they may have caused violence. But for what it's worth, a cursory perusal of several teh ghey blogs (I know, it was awful) didn't turn up any proof that they didn't threaten any violence.

At the very least, I'd say they've slandered one of our finer ethnic communities and ruined what could have been an entertaining concert, not to mention an opportunity to spread HIV/AIDS awareness to a group that has already been tremendously effected by the disease.

A parallel could be drawn to the time a group of angry so-called hip-hop feminists cancelled a benefit concert for Nelly's sister at Spelman College because they were upset at the credit card-swiping scene in Nelly's infamous Tip Drill video.

I'd venture to guess that it's no coincidence Nelly's sister died of cancer a couple of years later. Who knows how many Carribbean American youth will die of AIDS as a result of this silly protest.

You heard the new J5 yet Bol?

^Just the song. Maybe I'll review it.

^Is it any good?

Is Kanghey the head of this cult?

Thanks.

And we should be doing anything we can to stop the spread of HIV/AIDS in the Carribean American Community.

Anything we can do to keep that group from smelling worse then they already do.

"Who knows how many Carribbean American youth will die of AIDS as a result of this silly protest."

Ya, like countless niggers dropping dead from AIDs wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that they act like a bunch of fucking animals with no regard for the diseases and poverty that comes with fucking anything that has between 2 and 4 legs like its BET's spring-break blowout in orlando.

Shit they need to have a benefit to send all those dam Haitians, Jamicans, and Cuban Males back to their respective countries. Cuban women are fine as shit so they can stay....Fuck the fags, if they want to copyright the aids movement. Bathouse, dick sucking, chewy licking, pink dressing, Camron listening faggos.....

from what I know of Haiti, it might be a
kindness if AIDS did a number on the
whole island

buggery under the palm trees

Haiti isn't an island, dipshit.

I always put a period after the first word in my e-mail address, that way, everybody knows I'm the same stupid bitch no matter what alias I use, like this, "nignogs.@prison.com"

"I'd venture to guess that it's no coincidence Nelly's sister died of cancer a couple of years later. Who knows how many Carribbean American youth will die of AIDS as a result of this silly protest.

That is suc ha fucking joke

>I'd venture to guess that it's no coincidence Nelly's sister died of cancer a couple of years later. Who knows how many Carribbean American youth will die of AIDS as a result of this silly protest.

As if one concert could have completely educated anyone on HIV/AIDS prevention...

The facts have been out for 20+ years, and yet some people just choose to remain ignorant. In this day and age, most HIV/AIDS infections are caused by nothing more than reckless behavior.

Now are the gays to blame for that one?

Fans Of Group Insane Clown Posse Arrested In Park Attacks

POSTED: 2:49 pm PDT July 14, 2006
UPDATED: 3:22 pm PDT July 14, 2006

TACOMA, Wash. -- Seven young people, apparently fans of the rap hip-hop group Insane Clown Posse, have been arrested in a series of violent attacks at Fort Steilacoom Park, and police in suburban Lakewood have warrants for a couple more people, the prosecutor in the case said Friday.

The attacks over two nights would begin with the assailants calling to each other: "Woo! Woo! Juggalo!" Pierce County Deputy Prosecutor Phil Sorenson said Thursday.

Fans of the group, which began in Detroit in 1990, call themselves "Juggalos." While some Juggalos wear black-and-white clown makeup, it appears none of those involved in the attacks did so, Sorenson said.

"They're not dressed as clowns, but they tend to be wearing clothing popular with the Insane Clown Posse crowd ... some sort of clothing line that actually is featured by this group. And a lot of their clothing actually has clowns on it, some kind of clown insignia," he said.

Insane Clown Posse jewelry features a laughing clown with a meat cleaver. The group's albums include "Carnival of Carnage" and "Terror Wheel."

The alleged attackers, carrying hatchets and machetes, are accused of beating and robbing people in the park June 19 and 20 and threatened some with decapitation, according to court records.

They sent some victims to the hospital, with injuries that include "at least one broken jaw, one broken nose and a broken face. One girl was apparently ordered to take her pants off but she managed to escape. ... They're very aggressive," Sorenson said.

The seven people in custody range from ages 14 to 29, he said.

"One of the people who's been arrested does not have a role in the robberies but is facing a drug charge," Sorenson said, after officers executing a search warrant at an apparent Juggalo residence allegedly found drugs in his room.

Search warrants were executed at three south Tacoma residences, Sorenson said. "So they're apparently leaving South Tacoma to do their dirt and then going home."

A call to police in suburban Lakewood, where the park is located, was not immediately returned.

Earlier this week in Pierce County Superior Court, Crystal Rosalena Hilliard, 19, and Daniel Joseph Barnum, 21, pleaded not guilty to three counts each of first-degree robbery and six counts each of second-degree assault -- all felonies. Both were arrested July 7. Judge Lisa Worswick ordered Hilliard held on $100,000 bail. Judge Beverly Grant ordered Barnum jailed on $625,000 bail.

Anthony Derrick Pierce, 29, pleaded not guilty Friday to the same list of charges. He told investigators he's been a Juggalo for years and that the groups have become increasingly ganglike.

According to court records, Hilliard told detectives she was with a group of Juggalos that attacked people at the park and stole their wallets and cellular telephones.

Barnum told detectives he hit two people during one robbery and later used a stolen cell phones to call an ex-girlfriend who lives on the East Coast, according to charging papers.

Both provided names of other Juggalos who took part in the attacks, the court records state.

In February, Jacob D. Robida, 18, killed himself in Arkansas after a confrontation with police in which one officer and Robida's female passenger were killed.

Robida, sought in a hatchet and shooting attack at a gay bar in New Bedford, Mass., that left three men injured, had an Internet home page full of references to Insane Clown Posse. There was no anti-gay commentary on his site.

ACT-UP gay activists usually throws their blood on stage and be trying to get it in the eyes of negro fag haters so they're lucky this concert was canceled.
