ODB Defaced in Bed Stuy
The Ol’ Dirty Bastard mural at the corner of Putnam and Franklin Avenues (originally painted by Vic Goldfeld for a documentary) was already repainted once after first being defaced in 2007; now, according to Bed Stuy Banana, it’s been defaced again: His face and the “Bastard” part of his name were painted over recently. “Angry…
The Ol’ Dirty Bastard mural at the corner of Putnam and Franklin Avenues (originally painted by Vic Goldfeld for a documentary) was already repainted once after first being defaced in 2007; now, according to Bed Stuy Banana, it’s been defaced again: His face and the “Bastard” part of his name were painted over recently. “Angry church lady?” wonders BSB. “Or just not a hip hop fan?” GMAP

What- so what if someone wasn’t born and raised in Brooklyn? Big damn deal. As if that makes you a better person? A smarter person? A more compassionate person? Please.
“this thread has actually been great for me.”
Me too…
” felt that the What got away with his bs. today truly intelligent people finally called him out with truly intelligent comments. ”
Wait a minute, so you saying if someone agrees with you they are intelligent?? Ok now I understand.
“What we saw was actually poignant – I didn’t find myself cheering at his demise – I found myself genuinely sad and concerned for someone who’s clearly not well and maybe very lonely.”
Wow you got a copy of the DSM 4 manual? You can make that type of determination by reading someone post? Miss Priss suck it well..
“I hope that he can see through his own rhetoric and maybe take some of the truth that people, jewish, black, white put out there today.”
I could describe the people that made comments today but I would be banned forever from Brownstoner.
“the only thing i worry about is that he may be so unstable that this much real would put him over the edge…”
Miss Priss I live very well baby. I don’t need to “validate” everything to you, that would be not so bright on my part.
I touch a nerve the other day with my Harangue on the Posers who post on Brownstoner! You see most of you are unemployed, live 6 in a 1 bedroom apartment, STD carrying, one paycheck away from homelessness, Ghetto neighborhood hijacking POSERS!
You don’t live in Park Slope or Cobble Hill or Maybe Brooklyn Heights! You live in Bed Stuy, Bushwick and gasp, Ocean Hill and got the nerve to criticize me!
I was around when this mural went up! I saw the people painting it! Plus it was used for a Documentary on ODB life. No of the retards can say that and none of you can say you was Born and Raised in Brooklyn…
Losers….
The What (Brooklyn Finest)
Someday this war is gonna end..
After Mr. Sonny Carson the next mural I would like to have is Nat Turner (Freedom Fighter)…
this thread has actually been great for me. for a long time, I felt that the What got away with his bs. today truly intelligent people finally called him out with truly intelligent comments. What we saw was actually poignant – I didn’t find myself cheering at his demise – I found myself genuinely sad and concerned for someone who’s clearly not well and maybe very lonely. I hope that he can see through his own rhetoric and maybe take some of the truth that people, jewish, black, white put out there today. the only thing i worry about is that he may be so unstable that this much real would put him over the edge…
what- this is a 2 way street. YOu post the most horrible diatribes, and gross comments and insults but yet you want people to respect you and your opinions. How do you think that can work? I agree with you about the hard work and determination of Black and Jewish communities to mend things- did Sonny Carson work to make that happen?
What makes it ok for you to call white people retards and insult them at every turn yet my discussing my reason for not thinking well of Sonny Carson is somehow a personal insult to you. I assure you I didn’t intend it to be. Nor am I saying Sonny Carson was not a man who contributed a great deal to his community. He did- but he also applauded the death of Yankel Rosenbaum. There is nothing admirable in that.
You look at everything & everyone- black or white says- with the intention of misinterpreting what they say and making a fight out of it- should someone say anything to you besides, yes, What, Of course, What, anything you say, What- you get bent out of shape. Well, What- I was married to an Angry Black Man for 18 years- he never saw the need to pick imaginary fights. He was too busy dealing with real ones. Seems to me you have plenty of real issues to deal with without fantasizing new ones.
So let’s get this straight- just because I may disagree with you, I am not trying to insult you.
You know something? I gave great consideration to this comment: There are no more rules of engagement. Today was very disgusting and it show what my “neighbors” think of me. It’s show what my “neighbors” think about my hero’s, my community, my people and the city I live in. It show the attitude of the “neighbors” I live with. The goal is to subjugate a entire culture and neighborhood of people! This post illustrates that fact. No one could not run a counter augment with out peeking out from the sheet or put their “Jewelry” into the argument.
Most of the people here do not know what sparked the Crown Heights Riots and the deaths that resulted from that day was very very tragic! It took the shear power of the Black and Jewish communities to mend those broken fences and a time where tensions was running high in Crown Heights. I find it so disgusting to even bring up that day just to justify a augment should be grounds for termination from Brownstoner, yes termination!
For now on I will not care who feeling get hurt or who gets upset. There are no more rules….
The What
Someday this war is gonna end…
haha wu-tang is NOT huge in Japan
You get a tiara, snark!
