Fake Criminals and Their Stupidity

        There is a problem that many people who work in the criminal justice system have to deal with, but cannot discuss it because of professional reasons.  The problem is dealing with offenders who think that they are gangsters when, in fact, they are insecure bullies and  dumbasses—fake thugs in other words.  Specifically, these types of offenders walk around and talk about how they were running the streets and making a lot of money, but cannot afford a pot to piss in or recognize that they are not El Chapo.  Most of the  offenders (phonies) are guided by street culture that real gangsters created and live/lived by.  Even if these wanksters grew up in the streets, it does not mean that they a get to embrace the code of the streets because of the neighborhood they lived in, especially if they are not doing what they are claiming and are running around the hood, jails/prisons, and halfway houses telling on everyone.  How is that considered to be keeping it real?  As much disdain as this author has toward the criminal justice system’s practices and its practitioners, there is some sympathy for the professionals who have to deal with these idiots (fake thugs) on a daily basis. Trying to tell them the truth about who they (fake thugs) are and how they should grow up and stop acting like an immature juvenile has to be extremely annoying.  This brings us to the solution to help fake thugs (the many of whom snitch on people and act tough so they can try to maintain their bullshit reputation or get some favorable assistance).

       The first thing that has to be done is telling these wannabe tough guys the truth about who they are.  In other words, the practitioners have to convey to these types of offenders that they are not gangsters simply because they talk or dress a certain way.  Second, the truth about their petty crimes has to be delivered.  For example, if the offender (fake thugs) was arrested and convicted for drug dealing, there needs to be a talk about how they (fake thugs) are low-level dealers and are not Scarface, especially for people involved in the federal criminal justice system.  Getting these fake thugs to understand this, and embrace it, is easier said than done.  Nonetheless, this is where the conversation should transition to explicating how selling small amounts of drugs or committing other petty crimes is nothing to be proud of and that getting an education and job is something that should be done.  The wanksters’ insecurities will surely come about again.  If there is some connectivity made, the law enforcers/social workers should also remind the phonies that they cannot be a gangster (wannabe gangster, that is) and do things like education and legal jobs.  Any real person who grew up in the street will say the same thing.  That is, a choice has to be made.  Which is:  Are you (wannabe criminals) going to live out your dreams of being a gangster or are you going to grow up and live a positive life?  A positive life does not mean that you have to throw away your street culture, it simply means that the petty criminal activity is exactly that and it is nothing to be proud of.  Real gangsters know this.  They (real gangsters) mature and realize that being legitimate and still holding on to street culture values is more real than maintaining some juvenile ambition to be a wannabe.  This author recommends having OGs talk to these fake thugs and instilling some appreciation for being realistic.  Listening to a White boy or legal practitioner talk about this issue is usually met with a smartass attitude.   

        All of the above applies to people who did not grow up in the hood as well.  Meaning that there are  a bunch of criminal offenders who think that they keep it real and are some big shot when, in fact, they are some person who has achieved little to no serious accomplishments in their life and are sensitive about it.  Also, most of these offenders need to have the talk about how talking to law enforcement is something that real gangsters do not do.  Case in point, if criminal offenders are willing to be an informant or open up to legal practitioners so they can get some minor help with something it makes them a snitch.  Again, this is something that does not make a person a gangster, smart, or anything cool.  It is a game that law enforcers and others who work in the legal system play so that these foolish people (fake thugs and other criminals) are made to look like jackasses.  

       Let this author take a guess, it is my fault that all you fools do this, right?  The White boy is crazy and does not know what he is talking about!  Idiots.  Hahahahahaha🖕
