Ok I want to clear up what everybody sees on the facebook pages. Its called hip hop style. Its a style. Flat billed hat big sweatpants and such. Doesn't mean your a gangster or a criminal. Its a style. Most city kids dress like that. Though some of the people on the pages might very well be criminals I'm sure that all of them aren't. My husband dresses and talks like that. He's not a gangster or a criminal. He's just a guy who grew up in a mixed culture. He's not a poser either. This is urban not suburb crap.
I get the clothes. We wore crazy clothes as teenagers in the 50s. And before me many adults dressed like gangsters or rum runners during prohibition in the 20s. And of course many of us dressed like hippies in the 60s and 70s with beards, long hair, flared jeans, bandanas around the forehead, etc.
What I don't get is posing in deliberately mean, arrogant, threatening poses, flashing signs with your fingers; and in many cases posing with a gun, or in a group picture with someone else holding a gun.
How do you and your husband feel about facebook pictures like those?
