Tony Lewis Sr. on Getting Life in Prison at 26, Sent to Marine Base Worse Than Solitary (Part 6)

[@StraightGameTV]

He's a real one. Never said a word about nothing. I was in the streets when they were running things in D.C. So happy to see him home and his son and all the effort he put in to get his dad free.

People who take kids innocence away dont get life but drug dealers do

[@Tuelz...]

tbh i dnt feel sorry for dealers either... i lived in the hood in NYC and had hella rats in my apt like him. Poor af and i aint go out and take the easy route and sell hella drugs killing all my ppl while making other races riches and causing murders where young kids now dont have father or druged out mothers. Could you imagine how many families just one successful dealer ruined. Hundreds of families easily. Just like a R word. Lock them up forever too as i get to my 30s i realize how backwards our ppl are being hyped about these dudes like King Von or dealers like him. We aint never gonna get nowhere with ppl like this around fr lock them all up and let us become the race we was meant to be decades ago

[@radio3976]

Well, the issue wasn't just drugs. People were getting killed. Not because of these guys it was different situations in the city irrelevant from them that was and now violence is in the mix, so the government blamed these guys for it to make the case seem more serious than what it was.

We all know what the war on drugs was about putting black men in jail for the same crime the government did

[@jackjill8129]

Yeah I never understood that. They only made it illegal because they can't tax it anyway

[@techz4u1]

YES THEY SHOULD! The dealers, the connects, the plugs, all of them deserve it. For the love of money absolutely DESTROYED our community and dudes like this profited greatly. They get to come home and get called legends. Legends? I've got disdain for the user too but damn... The dealers were the ones recruiting kids. Calling hits etc. The gang culture or hood/crews culture really exploded with the drug gang. We've still not recovered from what they did to us. Agree or disagree

For those who think street life is cute. Go to prison and find out exactly how cute it really is. If you think you're bad, prison was built for bad people and worse people will be in there when you arrive. I will never feel bad for these guys who CHOSE the streets. A square life ain't so bad after all. Keep lying to yourselves that the streets is your only option. No one will miss you when you're gone, because they will move on with their lives as if you were already dead.

Just like the "Scared Straight" programs of the 70's/80's weren't enough to deter him from criminality, neither is his story gonna be enough to deter anyone else. Young people are rebellious by nature. If the parenting mentorship isn't enough to keep them from the nonsense, then they end up how they end up. Life: it is what it is 🤷‍♂️

[@datniggaeazye.5968]

It'll deter a few people I agree with your general sentiment though

[@sudosaiyajin]

You gotta already be having these kind of thoughts or already be hesitant about the life you’re living for it to change you

[@thinkforward8752]

@Rylo Gaddafi Yeah, I'd totally be willing to bet that any kid deterred by these types of stories simply wasn't *truly* about "that life" anyways 🤷‍♂️ The hard heads always opt to see for themselves, lol 💯

[@Emmanuel-ne3oi]

It'll deter some but not all

[@Levelc]

Finally some logic and reason. This is my sentiment as well. Young people need positive reinforcement and mentoring, OGs. Though, as you stated, these prison tales have been told since the 70s. No one knows whether or not they actually help.
