my brother is a "wigger", oh joy.

Don't worry about his musical tastes and interests, it is his life afterall, he should be free to like whatever he likes. Just cause YOU don't like it doesn't mean he can't. Would you like it if the situation was reversed and you were the younger one and he was like "My punk ass brother listens to gay techno and rock and roll. This has to stop!"

But DO worry about him wanting to buy a gun... that's just stupid. Don't let that happen - you don't want to hear about a police officer that pulled him over because of a busted tail light that he shot and killed cause he panicked or any of the absolutely ridiculous stories you here in the news today related to kids with guns.. or some kid at school makes fun of his haircut so he pulls out the gun to scare the kid and it goes off and kills the innocent girl walking by on her way to class. Don't let that happen.

Kids today are very weak creatures. (I don't know if it's our generation or if it's always been so, I'm only 21) A disagreement arises "I'll kick your ass you fag" and blood is shed. Tone is right in that his tastes are his own and he's entitled to them. I don't think less of anyone for listening to that type of music, I just choose not to have them a major part of my life in any way. However letting music dillute his perception of reality to the point where he wants a gun because it's cool, and I'm assuming he dresses and talks like an absolute tool as well. I listened to a great deal of that same kind of gangster rap in early high school too. Wasn't my favorite but every now and then I'd listen and mostly chuckle at it. I still do. It's one thing to enjoy, it's entirely another to let something so trivial consume you. If he won't listen to you, let time teach him the lesson.

i dont hate people who like rap or anything but i believe that /\ is what is happening to all the young teens who watch all the music videos and shit on mtv(and bet) all day like my brother.

i believe that is what has happened to him..he is saying a bunch of bullshit too like "im an original gangsta, know what dat means??...its when you killed someone and you then you a gangsta" or some crock like that.. i know damn well that he hasnt killed anyone and i know damn well the only fights hes ever been in was ones with me..and he cant even beat ME up and im not even that much of a fighter!!!!! so how the hell is he sposed to be a gangsta anyways??

mtv is brainwashing too many damn kids..

but you know they say a good backhand'll cure anything

haha good luck with that dude... yeah it's fun to tease him about it and all but you should really pay attention to that gun situation and make sure it doesn't happen ;x
