Stand Proud Alone
Re: Word Out Housey, July RipltUp.
About three weeks ago, my mate got seriously dealt to on his way home from town in Napier one night. Three dudes biffed my mate in their car. He struggled to break free, but when three guys are smashing you, what the fuck can you do? They smashed a bottle on his head and stabbed his face with the broken bottle. He was unconscious for three hours, and woke up in hospital. His head looked like a slashed up basketball. Anyway, I found out it was some Bloods who did it for their initiation into the gang. That is so weak, man. Why don’t they beat each other up, instead of people they don’t know? I’ve just read the letter that some ‘Waipuk’ Bloods’ wrote in, sticking up for some Merle H Thomas, whoever the fuck that is. Why do you people (oh, sorry, I mean scum, or shit) write fuckin’ crap like that in this mag’? I hate gangs so bad it makes me spew acid. What’s wrong with you? Can’t you stand proud by yourself? Before I end this note, I want to say that Hammer (MC) is dead as a roadkill, and Pearl Jam is an out of it name, for a band. I might even name my kids Pearl and Jam. Also, Pearl Jam surf, which is better than roaming in gangs and beating people for fun. You’re fuckin’ crazy man, and you’re all going to hell. Dreads, Napier.
