Florida sounds like the real-life world of The Last of Us.

I’ll concede that some Floridians are probably full of yeast squeezings while doing Florida things; but that’s as far as you can safely blame fungi for the problem.

No sympathy for 69, he knows how the saying goes. I do feel bad for the drummer from def leopard, he’s only got one arm… gotta be hard to catch yourself if you fall.

So why in your estimation does Tekashi 6ix9ine deserve to be badly beaten?

I didn’t say he deserved it, I said I have no sympathy.

The rap attack sounds like a targeted and intentional lesson for past actions.

The rock attack sounds like Florida on a Tuesday.

Yeah, this doesn’t seem like a Florida thing. Seems more like a “a lot of assholes exist” thing.

As I understand it, 6ix9nine has a lot of enemies out there so this isn’t super shocking someone attacked him.

As for the Def Leppard guy, sounds like a random Florida man moment! Or since it was Spring Break, a tourist trying too hard to blend in! And yeah, he only has arm, so way to be a total fucking asshole.

That’s what I’m wondering… it’s possible that this is a pattern of attacking famous musicians, but it could be that Tekashi’s beat down was for something he did?

I think I was confused… but now I’m not.

I mean ok Tekashi 6ix9ine probably had it coming, but what kind of monster would beat up Rick Allen? Hasn’t he already been through enough?

Granted, I haven’t looked very hard, but being annoyed with another driver, crashing and severing his own arm is pretty much the most irresponsibility I can dig up on him.

And he’s even taken that experience and parlayed it into a charity. :man_shrugging:

That was my first thought, exactly:

Florida or not, ‘Six Nine’ (I am not spelling that ignorant shit out) has done a fair amount of dirt and fucked quite a few people over, to the point that I’m actually surprised to hear that he’s still breathing.

I have genuine sympathy for Rick Allen, though.

Indeed. I’m sure he’s a nice dude and doesn’t deserve to get a beat down…

Indeed. Not to defend his actions, but he was only 21 when that happened, and he certainly payed a huge price for that. As you said at least he used that as a growth experience and tried to make something good out of it.

Tekashi 6ix9ine just strikes me as an unrepentant asshole and shit-stirrer.

I just want to see a news report with the reporter calling him six-ix-nine-ine the whole time.
