| Pop Smoke lost his life to gun violence. |
Pop Smoke, a rising New York rapper was fatally shot in a home in Los Angeles. He was shot in the early hours in the Hollywood Hills neighborhood on Wednesday.
Officers responded after someone calling from the East Coast reported that several people, at least one wore a black mask and was armed with a handgun, had entered their friend's home shortly before 5am.
The Los Angeles Police Department spokesman, Capt. Steve Lurie said that the 20-year old rapper born Bashar Barakah Jackson was found on the property with multiple gunshot wounds.
Jackson was born in 1999 in Brooklyn. He was a product of a Jamaican mother and Panamanian father. He got into the music in 2018 while hanging around other rappers during their studio sessions.

I am assuming that Pop Smoke was staying in the home getting his album prepared or he was shooting a music video, we can't confirm the detail to why he was there but his family was notified of his death.
Investigators suspect the home where the rapper was staying was targeted by the terrorists. In recent years, several home invasions in Los Angeles have been aimed at homes being rented by rappers, rock stars and entertainers.
Peep out his albums.

Investigators said that Pop Smoke had ties to the domestic terrorist group The Crips.
Investigators said that he may have sealed his fate by inadvertently posting an image with the address on social media.
Pop Smoke had signed to Republic Records through Victor Victor Worldwide. He released the single "Welcome to the Party," his lead single from the debut mixtape Meet The Woo. The rapper released the hit single, Dior,
This song is frequently played on Shade45 on SiriusXM. The rapper had an opportunity to talk to DJ Kay Slay's Streetsweeper show.

The charges are murder, robbery, unlawful entry and criminal homicide. If convicted, those involve will face the DEATH card if convicted.
The suspects are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The status quo of the gun culture. Now is not the time to talk about gun violence!
If there were more security guards and more civilians (aka the good guy) with a gun.......
They learn how to use firearms from watching (or listening) to gangsta rap.
They watch violent movies.
They don't have fathers or mothers in their lives and it results in them committing criminal acts.
Blah, blah, blah....
Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government. They are enabling this. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They are numb to gun violence.
The "good guy" with a firearm is the most dangerous person to have a firearm. Matter of fact, the NICE GUYS are often the ones who are spurned by society. Bad relationships, losing your job, jealousy over promotions, family feuds and racism are typical NICE GUY issues.
NICE GUYS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIVIDUALS WITH A FIREARM.
THE NICE GUY GETS SPURNED BY SOCIETY. THEY TAKE REVENGE ON SOCIETY.
RESTRAINING ORDERS ARE JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. THEY WILL NOT (I REPEAT) STOP A "MAD" MAN FROM OBTAINING A FIREARM.
Don't you just want to scream!?
Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."
We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.
I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."
I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.
Does rap music contribute to gun violence?
Every time these folks offer "thoughts and prayers," "their condolences," "their hearts going out to," and "their apologies," they are not sincere. For every naming of a road, park, bench, building and holiday, it won't matter to the community. For every time they lower flags, offer moments of silence and candlelight vigils, we just offer "feel good-isms."
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.

Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.
It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. A mass shooting will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how "guns save lives." They don't. The only thing that survives a gun shooting is the gun.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
THERE IS NO GOD.
