I Blame General Electric…

9mm

Glock 9mm made in Austria

In mainstream media coverage when you snooze, you lose. This is why I am already lining up the winners, the losers, the good guys and the villains that will ascend from the pile of dead bodies down in Blacksburg. One of the readers here left a comment that there was irony in the fact this this tragic event took place in a town called Blacksburg. I missed the point, but I also know of a town in Virginia’s mountains called Lynchburg and things used to get pretty gully up in that piece.

Anyhoo, I suppose we should be sad for the families that have lost someone in this tragedy. I’m almost one hundred percent certain that no Blacks were injured in this remake of Columbine because the setting was a university and not a community college. So let’s have a moment of silence for the white that was lost forever to this angry Asian man’s nine millimeter…

Okay, that’s long enough. We have serious business to attend to here at DP Dot Com, and keeping score of who benefits from social upheaval is one of our favorite pastimes. Let’s take a look at the players…

g dubbz G DUBBZ = Hero
For at least a few days America forgets about the fucked up war in Iraq, the attorney general scandal, the tax increase and the general way G DUBBZ has run this country into the ground.

O.G.E. GENERAL ELECTRIC = Winner
Orders placed for G.E. manufactured ‘Lexan‘ bullet-resistant glass are out the roof.

g.t.a. Grand Theft Auto = Loser
Video games as a whole will have to take it on the chin for this one, especially if the shooter was an Asian dude. Who do you think codes these games in the first place?

50 cent FISTY SCENT = Villain
Somehow I expect mainstream media to equate the massacre with Hip-Hop culture and rap music. FISTY SCENT’s latest album was titled ‘The Massacre’ and although I have yet to hear any of his rhymes espouse going to college I’m sure he will blamed for what transpired on the VA. Tech campus.

hitler o.g. The Germans = Teachers
The Germans teach us hate on a whole ‘nother level. They hypnotize themselves with hatred in order to free their minds from cumbersome compassion or logic. The following video wasn’t even so much about a Deutschland army instructor drilling supremacist ideas into a soldier, but creating a racist lifestyle that will exist outside of the army as well.

    I’d follow you on the “hip-hop taking the blame” angle if they had found some pics of that shooter rocking a crisp New Era fitted. I’m sure that would have been the next stop. Other than that, nah. People already blaming video games. Sounds like to me that the kid got played by his girl.

    Its all Curtis’ fault. Urban Action Coon has made bulletproof vests, bullet wounds, and all things gun related front and center in pop culture. The day this mushmouth, rabbit-toothed, snitch-rat sambo summabitch is left irrelevant and impotent I will truly be happy.

    GDubbs is literally Andy Dufresne. “Crawled through 400 yards of shit and come out clean on the other side…”

    Those Germans, always attempting to cause mischief.

    Papa, Stallin made Hitler look like a toy in head counts. hitler killed those which weren’t his “own”…stallin made no distinction…trumping up false charges and regulary liquidating his inner circle…dude was one hun-ned

  6. nigeria – what’s up with your elections? and we thought things would go smoothly there like iraq. also, i thought that was a coming to america reference sans the germans.

    things are going to get snippy when people want to turn bastions of higher educations into lock downs. fact is, you can only make things so secure as to hinder their original purpose. best method you can have is a closed door, card access to every location. unfortch, not going to work with thousands of people milling from building to building.

    I said the same thing, the timming is perfect. The V Tech massacre will smurf Gonzogate, the momentum that was building to clean up crap music and the mess in Iraq.

  8. Nigeria says:

    ”nigeria – what’s up with your elections?”

    I don’t even know any more. The country always seems on the cusp of implosion and I hope this ”election” is not the trigger . My aunt phoned our house at the weekend telling my mother that in the smaller villages, towards the volatile northern states, there are bodies lining the streets, which is somewhat worrying, especially, in regards to the lack of substantive reportage.

    With regard to Germans. Whats wrong with telling a rookie to blast at cats while visualizing some wild neggars from South Bronx running up on ya? I tell my kids that all the time. Every day!

  11. DocZeus says:

    The Second victim in the shooting was black. He got killed trying to help the first victim who was his neighbor.

    I haven’t heard anyone blame hip hop or video games, however I have seen many media reports blaming the easy access to hand guns.

    I don’t know about y’all, but I don’t want them fucking wit my right to bear arms.

    As Crazy as mufukas is today, I feel, in my opinion it kinda of evens the odds. As the old saying goes rather get caught wit it than without it.

    I mean the criminials got them, why not the citizens?

    Dallas, that’s a pic of a Glock 17, but my personal preference is the Glock 19 aka the “plastic glock”. It’s alot better cuz It’s lighter and easier to tuck.

    “She keep asking how it shoot if it’s plastic………. I told her, you’ll see if yo boy run up…. She sat back and turned the Carter back up.
    Lil Wayne
    Oh yeah, it aint really plastic.

    DP,
    I was feeling clever when I wrote it and in my head it all made sense, but in the cold light of day it didn’t come out just right. Violence in “blacksburg”, less surprising than if that joint was called “whitesburg” or “hymietown” (with thanks to the old school stylings of Rev. Jackson). Also, a shooting in blacksburg, with the trigger man being asian, struck me as ironic. That said, my sense of humor, when exposed in the written word, usually strikes me as racist.

    All this talk of guns, just be glad this dead-eye didn’t go on a rampage

    Dubbya got a big pass on the day in Irak, but got no bonus points for speedily immersing himself in this catatrophe…remember 9/11…

  15. Gee says:

    It´s hard to proof read with a baby on your lap…

  16. Vee says:

    And Grand Theft Auto IV is coming out soon. You’re wrong.
    Yeah, let’s hope he did not listen to hip-hop, that public discussion would be annoying at this point.

  17. the_dallas says:

    ^ Wrong about what?!

  18. Amadeo says:

    I heard Dubby say at the memorial that the students “were in the wrong place at the wrong time” can the man ever get it together when speaking publicly?

    I say blame John Woo. Dude went in with two handguns Killer Style. Unless they both needed to be nines.

    GE?????????? Bullet-proof glass??????????

    My hood is directly across the highway from GE and I never knew they made “bullet-proof” glass!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hell they always had us under the impression they were building airplane engines and light bulbs in that joint and that when the first nuclear bomb dropped, my hood would be the first to go!

    No wonder they keep buying up land like a thirsty man in the desert!

    Re: Germans: Please do not generalize ALL Germans because of this stupid a$$ video. It caused quite an uproar over here. It’s a shame! But – Germans are not all Hitler loving, hating, racists Nazis. Racism, violence and unnecessary killing is a problem in most, if not all countries ALL over this messed up planet.
    Besides that – Hitler wasn’t a native German, he was from Austria.
