  1. PARENTS RAISE YOUR KIDS BETTER
    I would like to see more parents take responsibility for their children. Even in suburban households, parents are too self-absorbed and far too preoccupied with their careers to genuinely connect with their kids, set expectations, and instill values. I worked in education for many years at different elementary schools. I saw the result of parental neglect. The neglect shows up in student behavior and low academic achievement. Today's students don't seem to value education, because they lack sufficient parental guidance. Consequently, they grow up to become useless and violent towards society. Students who become first-year, first-generation college students either end up dropping out of college or they graduate without knowing how to navigate the world of work, earn marketable skills, and compete for a job. This is especially true for students of color, who seem to always be candidates for programs that serve neglected and underserved students. Why? Why don't today's parents seem to have a clue about how to support their kids?

    If you have children, then it's not just your responsibility to provide a home, clothing, and food on the table. Those are just basic, minimum requirements. As parents, you are also responsible for raising your children to become productive, working, and contributing members of society. This level of parenting requires that you make the time to have a relationship with your kids, help them to discover their natural gifts and talents, then put them in contact with professionals in a variety of industries who can help them achieve their life goals and become high earners.

    Someone needs to start holding parents accountable for not doing their job as parents. At present, there is no accountability. Students are now regularly terrorizing schools, other students, and teachers, just to have schools shut down. It is now more than ever very important for people to become better parents and give kids higher-quality parenting.

  2. This is a pure hate crime rip takeoff šŸ’–

  3. I heard the shooters were his cousins!? Is that true!?

  4. Emotional and impulsive

  5. So technically the other guy is innocent

  6. RIP TakeoffšŸ•ŠšŸ•ŠšŸ•Š

  7. If that incident would not of had happen that night Cam wouldn’t be in jail for having the gun so if he Wanna blame somebody blame the Dj. For you being in jail rite now

  8. I don’t feel bad for rappers getting shot and killed, because that is all they talk about black people pollute our society and our children, there music should be banned they talk about shootings and murder wtf how is that even legal. I know freedom of speech but there is also things that shouldn’t be promoted to our kids and family. I guess you can say he brought that life on himself

  9. That guy is a pon…he didn't do it..hear what say….he didn't kill take off…. #riptakeoff šŸ™šŸæ

  10. Don't understand, just think they got the wrong person. Listening to the police talk not convinced, who is this guy?

  11. Spencers child play figure…… I have the tots 500$ one still in the box, it's in the pawn shop right now.

  12. All who was there need to say something even if it meant ensuring your safety or identity; sign an agreement or bring your own lawyer; but I guarantee there would be many to come on social media for likes about Offset…..this is heartbreaking and sad to his family.

  13. another rapper sent to hell! i wonder what his excuse was when he was asked why he promoted violence hate cursing in his art and not something that would've brought people together to Glorify God! keep this in mind puppets and puppeteers when Hebrews 9:27 takes place Gods mercy ends and he will have no mercy in his judgement are you prepared for that moment

  14. Justice for Takeoff😄

  15. Why did cops get involved and arrest someone for this against the wishes of Takeoff's friends? They all left the crime scene before the cops showed up. It's not like they were eager to give a description of the suspects.

  16. So who is Clark? They say Takeoff was a bystander, were Clark and Cam in a gunfight in the crowd? Was it related to the dice game or the argument at all? Is it accurate that Cam used Take as a shield after he was hit? Cameras everywhere, they don't need witnesses.

  17. Thoughts and prayers for Takeoff. Hopefully he may get through purgatory and ascend into the New Jerusalem soon. Amen.

  18. Free the guy … I hope he gets off on bail

  19. What is this madness with violence??? Why are black men doing this to themselves??? Life means nothing to these folks. Just sad.

  20. ā€œDice gameā€, ā€œinnocent bystanderā€; so freaking insane. I only pass through Atlanta’s airport; will never again set foot in that town. What a lack of humanity and a shame for such a tragic loss of life over a stupid ā€œdice gameā€! Stop tolerating this ignorant, lowlife, and dangerous behavior!

  21. Dead in the eyes. Exactly what a killer has. Excluding military kills because that’s for survival

  22. SO IT TOOK 30+ DAYS TO FOR THE SUSPECT TO RUN TO MEXICO… LIES. PRETTY SURE EVEN IF HE TRAVELED ON FOOT HE'D STILL MAKE IT TO MEXICO… WHAT A FALLBACK GUY FOR MOB TIES EVEN THE GUY WITH THE DREADSšŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ¤£āœ”ļø YALL CALL YOURSELVES PROFESSIONAL OFFICERS… SCARED THEM GANGSTAS GONNA SHOOT AND BLOW YOUR POLICE STATION UP… DEFUND THESE OFFICERS

  23. People don’t even know takeoff. Yes he’s a legend. And hell no he didn’t deserve it. But don’t comment corny stuff like you knew him.

  24. I always want the bad guy to get away

  25. The person who shot him dosen't look heavy set. They need to really look into all those cameras

  26. I don't remember seeing that dude at all in the videos I think he just taking the wrap look at them videos again I ain't never see Patrick in them

  27. Start making a example out of all these people carrying these guns and killing innocent bystanders an innocent people.

  28. Give this guy the death penalty and don't wait 30 years to put him to death.

  29. Just part of the culture
