Last week's senseless gun battle in a suburban Pittsburgh cineplex that left one man dead following a showing of Get Rich or Die Tryin' starring rapper "50 Cent" underscores that in the hip-hop culture, human life is afforded little value and, worse yet, the necessity for using the plural form when more than one "cent" is involved is not at all understood.The only way to combat this wretched situation is to outlaw the sale of this cacophony by "50 Cent" that masquerades as music.
This may seem drastic but -- to put it in a language that "50 Cent" himself would understand -- the best offen is a good defen.
