WOOO & CHOO Gang Takedown

Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, together with New York City Police Commissioner Keechant L. Sewell, today announced that 32 alleged members of two rival street gangs known as WOOO and CHOO are variously charged in four indictments with conspiracy to commit murder, conspiracy to possess weapons, and other related charges including murder, attempted murder, reckless endangerment, and weapons possession.

Doing what. Wasting thousands of dollars so that another 14 cops can take the afternoon off and get paid for doing nothing. It takes 1 cop to do this, not 14. If they put that much effort into helping the communities, then things like this would not be so prevalent. Sadly, after decades of abuse from racist cops and a disproportionate stacking of resources and support going against them, then you get sh+t like this. The state can spend billions on weapons but won't spend thousands on helping the communities that they put in this position. Nothing will change whilst there's so much inequality.

[@KingLowkeyTheStoryteller]

Y'all the ones who need psychiatric treatment. You try growing up in a warzone with the economic deck predisposed to not be in your favor, seeing people die and crash out from as early as 5 years old. Get no help from the police to stop all that craziness, but did get excessive and unwarranted harassment from them almost daily, definitely at least twice a week just for walking down the street. See how mentally stable you are after that. Then when we got to middle school, things changed even more and people we grew up with garnered new friends and shit, slight disagreements happen here and there but back then we were still fighting things out instead of shooting, we'd get our people they'd get theirs and we'd brawl until the beef was dead, but after going back and forth on that, a body drops here and then there and songs get made about it and it turns into a community thing that spread all over the city. Real talk though, none of these new age kids I recognize, the only people who I acknowledge as wooo or choo are the ones who were active and outside during the origin days around 2009-2013/14 when the situations that made the beef what it is today were happening anything after that it's just riding the coattails of work that was put in before your time, kinda like a kid who acts tough because their mother or father was that wild card in the streets but the kid never actually put no work in themselves, got nothing to stand on but other people accomplishments. As a man, it's sickening, they really out here dying and getting football numbers over a beef that has LITERALLY NOTHING TO DO WITH THEM, 🤦 think about this. MOST OF THESE CURRENT MEMBERS WERE IN ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL WHEN IT WAS THE START OF THE BEEF, WAVEGANG VS HOODSTARZ DAYS IYKYK. EVEN THE LATE POP SMOKE WHO WAS THE CELEBRITY FACE OF THE WOOO SAID THIS AND INCLUDED HIMSELF IN THAT BRACKET, SAID HE WAS STILL A KID BACK THEN IN ELEMENTARY GOING VIRAL FOR KIKI SHAPOWING HIM, WASNT INVOLVED IN NOTHING THAT MADE IT WHAT IT IS BUT ENDED UP BEING THE FACE OF IT. But my initial point was and is, YOU try to grow up in such conditions with no opportunities and no one believing you can be anything, see how productive and law abiding YOU'D BE. It's really easy to pass judgement when you know literally nothing about why they do what they do. All that being said, I don't condone the wanton and brazen shooting because niggas got no militaristic training and innocent people getting hurt. If it wasn't for that factor, I'd say let them get out the way and deal with each other, you people need to stop looking at us as unsaveable demons and put yourself in their shoes. Think about WHY these happen from the root and you'll have a better chance of reaching a true solution for all. Y'all be good out there.

@@justmy5984 and to that "these niggas chose this" shit, yeah some did make a conscious decision. Other niggas had no say so. And if you from Harlem and from that time frame you should already know whether you a civilian or you outside. Just living where you do sometimes is enough to determine who is going to be trying to victimize you. For example, one of my youngboys is from O'Hill P's on sumpter and mother Gaston ok? Generally wooo over there but it be choos on McDonough st a few mins away. His family moved to Marcus Garvey houses which is a choo HQ and just because of where he moved from, niggas been on him almost daily. AND HE A PROMINENT CIVILIAN my guy. He didn't make no decision to have none of this happen to him, he wanna graduate high school and become a historical anthropologist. But yet he drawn into this feud and he not even wooo, just grew up in their area. And it's a lot of young niggas who say fuck it and join up for this reason. They figure fuck it, police won't help, my family CANT help, so I'm gonna link with their opposition and be on their side and have some modicum of protection. Not realizing that it now puts a direct and visible target on them. So once again I ask, where's the choice in all of that? Mostly single parent households with multiple siblings and shit, the deck already stacked against most of these niggas so stop demonizing them as a lost cause and help the ones who not too far gone already 🤷
