Straight Out Of Compton... Too Good?

Putting on my analyst hat re #StraightOttaCompton. The bio pic of #RealityRap was a really compelling flick, But was it TOO compelling? Featuring #NWA s #FuckThePolice as a street anthem, the movie chronicles the early beat of gangsta rap in LA.  The song was the pre #RodneyKing exposé of #LA cops from the point of view of the hood, Compton, CA. You feel the degradation and can't help but feel stirred up. American have always been anti establishment. Revolt was our birthright afterall. Outlaws and gangsters are the stuff of our movie legends. But with the last three weeks of this anti police film topping the box office (and that's nationwide not the hood) you gotta wonder if "Outta" has played some part in the increase in police being shot across the country. 83 officers have died in the line of duty this year already. And the last few weeks has seen report after report. Coincidence?  God I hope so.

1) Did cops killed in line of duty stats go up when NWA first released their SOC CD? Nope.

2) It appears you are including cops who died from many other things in line of duty; 12 died as a result of car accidents, 11 died of heart attacks, 10 were shot and others died as a result of being struck by vehicles, vehicle pursuits, assaults or accidents.

Only 10 Were Shot.

Jeff, don't u think that u have a great responsibility to be accurate here? Because it looks like you either are greatly misinformed or just want to stir things up.

U losing credibility with such half baked commentary.
