There is now a new threat to all of us in the hip-hop community.First be clear that I am in no way endorsing drug use, but if this bill is passed into law you will be put into a ‘damned if you do damned if you don’t’ situation.

If made law, will make you bound by law to maybe ‘snitch out’ friends, and family. They want to use us - to destroy us. Use us to lock us up, and at the same time ‘stiffing’ the laws surrounding these kinds of arrests. Think jails are crowed now? This will affect almost every family you know.

We all know that hip-hop culture is a street thing. If you ‘snitch’ in the streets you know what is coming. Now, if this becomes law, if you don’t ‘snitch’ you know whats coming. This is a real ‘catch 22’ situation. We have been warned that this or something like this was coming. Honorable Min. Louis Farrakhan spoke about this very thing in 2003. He has said that the government would go after hip-hop culture and here it is. (Read the second part of this article below to learn bout that).

The bill H.R. 1528, Defending America's Most Vulnerable: Safe Access to Drug Treatment and Child Protection Act of 2005, is one of the worst drug war bills that Congress has ever considered.

Among other things, HR 1528:

--Virtually eliminates the ability of federal judges to give sentences below the minimum sentence recommended by federal sentencing guidelines, essentially creating a mandatory minimum sentence for every federal offense (including both drug and non-drug offenses).

--Expands the federal “three strikes and you’re out” law to include new offenses, including mandating life imprisonment (with no possibility of parole) for anyone convicted a third time under the RAVE Act.
