Remember back in Episode 2 of Season 2 of “This Week in Blackness“? Remember when I made that completely off hand comment about Twitter being gangsta? Yeah, that was silly. Ridiculous even. What wanna-be gangsta’s would ACTUALLY be on Twitter and tweet ridiculously dumb shit that could later be used against them?
“The city’s street gangs are becoming tweet gangs.
Manhattan’s young thugs have turned to Twitter, and the cops who track them are fast behind, the Daily News has learned.
It’s old-school crime meets new technology: attacks being plotted – and thwarted – 140 characters at a time.” – The Daily News
Um, has “The Wire” taught young punks anything? On that show they didnt even use cell phones for more than a few weeks and these dumbasses are tweeting whats going down? Besides the fact that they shouldn’t be in gangs planning to beat up people, if you are going to ACTIVELY work to be violent, can you at least not be stupid about it?
