This is foolish I grew up with slim. To say he engaged in activity that made him a kingpin is malicious slander. He cared about the kids and he wasn't a kingpin. Most young men from our era made some choices that weren't best involving the streets but that was a part of how we were socialized in limited opportunities. He is a normal dude that played ball and helped others to get themselves in a position to play the game for a living. He wasn't Ray or Cornell in anyway.

You stigmatize drug users and lie about the the effects of drugs to have the masses believe that drugs are completely bad with no benefits, and convince them that they need a government to control their life’s and others. Without the cia, fbi, dea, etc. cracking down on plants and chemicals, all people would be responsible for their own actions that do not effect anyone but themselves. Almost all crime and violence is drug related and would be ended if we ended prohibition. We’ve seen this multiple times throughout history.

I think that a lot of drug dealers consider it a family business, and the reality of the fact is people who use drugs like heroin and cocaine are for the most part already using those drugs. I really don't think it makes those people evil, and it doesn't necessarily make them responsible for the users' addiction. Most people who buy heroin from street dealers didn't get addicted by those same street dealers, 99% of the time.

it's a shame how the agents are trying to paint this man as another "evil villain",when ALL they do is hurt the community by taking fathers away & like in this case for a lot of those kids he probably was the only one who cared who showed them love on the daily.

Yo!!!! This is the craziest shit!!! I'm on here looking at videos and stumbled on this!!!! I went to a juco named Potomac State College in Keyser, West Virginia in 1987 with this kat(he stayed banging that go go music)!!!!!! I was there for football though. This kat came to WV with trash bags full of sneakers!!!!!! My man was nice with the rock!!!!! The only black folks at the juco were the athletes.....football and basketball and we all gravitated to each other. I'll never forget our football team going to a Pot State bball game and getting in a fight with the opposing team's baseball team(Hagerstown if I remember correctly) because one of those inbreds spit on one of our players!!!!! We beat the dog shit out of those klowns!!!! That shit was on local t.v.!!!!!!

Idk he probably sold to people the children he worked with knew. I think it's a front, a passion and a way to release guilt of selling drugs to his own neighborhood, leading to homes being torn apart or never the same. Bc he could have helped more people by not giving drugs. He only wanted a specific group in the community to do well. And it's hard for anyone to do well surrounded in a drug epidemic. Selling drugs just made it harder for him to reach the children he wanted to help. Very backwards trippy person.

He could've easily just not sold drugs and just had a job. DC and MD are home to most affluent black communities in the country so it's legal money in the area for him

There were two avenues for hoops the CYO and the Interhigh. Then the drug culture took over during the 80s and 90s. I just don`t remember when AAU the became bigger than the CYO and Interhigh in the DMV or this dude Malone?
