(112,128 posts)I heard about the video from my sister who is a regular Faux Noos viewer. Thank goodness the family never gathers for Thanksgiving anymore -- 3 conservatives to 2 liberals. Counting in-laws it goes to 5 conservatives to 3 liberal/moderates.

(6,344 posts)The rapper insisted he had not been seeking controversy with the video, telling Billboard: When I be putting shit out, I dont ever expect or look for a reaction. I just put it out because I feel like its something thats missing. Any time I drop something, Im trying to fill in a void. I feel like its a lot of people making cool records, having fun, partying, but nobodys dealing with the real issue with this fucking clown as president, and the shit that we dealing with out here, so I wanted to take time out to push pause on a party record and make one of these records for the time being.

(9,350 posts)The video is violent, but Snoop Dogg did not actually shoot the Donald Trump clown; he used a bang gun. I imagine police unions are going to hate this song and video in that it does seem that Snoop is calling for violence against police. However, that seems to come from a frustration over the fact that young blacks are being shot in the streets and even when the evidence seems to show that the shooting was unjustified there is no punishment of the cop(s) involved.

(3,557 posts)the term "second amendment solution" is their term and this video is just shows their second amendment solution in action.
I think it was Tupac that said "live by the gun, die by the gun". If the right wants to "live by the gun" (i.e. unfettered gun owning rights), then they have to be willing to "die by the gun" too.
