Mon Nov-16-09 12:55 PMOriginal messageThe US government and the assassination of Tupac Shakur http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/article_5266.sh...I first wrote about the assassination of American Rap Music superstar Tupak Shakur almost a decade ago. At the time I used the title “The Hand of The Man in Tupak’s Assassination†and I use the term “assassination†for good reason.Tupak was gunned down on the Las Vegas Strip in front of the mega gambling casino Circus Circus after a Mike Tyson boxing match. Hundreds of people witnessed the killing and it had to have been captured on multiple CCTV (close circuit television) systems used to monitor the front of the hotel. The killers had to have arrived and departed from the scene of the crime via the main thoroughfare, The Strip, and were certainly recorded doing so on dozens if not hundreds of other CCTV systems.Yet to this day, well over a decade later, law enforcement claims they have no idea who committed this crime. No photos extracted from the multiple video cameras that recorded the assassination, not even the license plate number of the killer’s vehicle.It is so obvious that a cover up has taken place that even black American superstar comedian and actor Chris Rock raised this in one of his HBO comedy specials.While Chris Rock may not consider Tupac’s killing an assassination, all one needs to do is watch the documentary made about Tupac’s life to understand how Tupac’s message to the youth of America, and the world, was something that was not going to be tolerated by those in the highest levels of law enforcement.The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the USA has a long history of targeting black American political activists, amongst others, and through the notorious “COINTELPRO†program, law enforcement death squads assassinated hundreds of black, Latino and American Indian activists during the 1960s and 70s.-snip------------------------------its not forgotten and its not over

His godfather, Elmer "Geronimo" Pratt, a high ranking Black Panther, was convicted of murdering a school teacher during a 1968 robbery, although his sentence was later overturned.His stepfather, Mutulu, spent four years at large on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list beginning in 1982, when Shakur was a pre-teen. Mutulu was wanted in part for having helped his sister Assata Shakur (also known as Joanne Chesimard) to escape from a penitentiary in New Jersey, where she had been incarcerated for allegedly shooting a state trooper to death in 1973.Assata Shakur fled to Cuba by 1984; in that year she was granted political asylum in that country. The New Jersey State Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation each still have an agent officially assigned to her case. Calls for Shakur's extradition increased following Fidel Castro's transfer of presidential duties;< in a May 2005 television address, Castro had called Shakur a victim of racial persecution, saying "they wanted to portray her as a terrorist, something that was an injustice, a brutality, an infamous lie".[br />Mutulu was caught in 1986 and imprisoned for the robbery of a Brinks armored truck in which two police officers and a guard were killed.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupac_ShakurConsidering the history, I think there's lots of reason for suspicion.

"gov't" can = many entities, for example, police. & "fellow rappers" can also be pawns of gov't. & being a threat isn't the only motive for assassination. revenge, sending a message to others in the family or allies we know nothing of, etc. are also motives.the inaction on the case combined with the extensive political history of the family mean it's not to be dismissed out of hand.Alert
Maybe I'm an idiot, But I figure "Hit Em' Up" by Tupac probably has more clues in it as to who killed him and why than some super secret black-ops obscured videotapes.But that's just me..
Can't say I've ever heard anything by Half-Pac so I can't comment.

The man was a veritable Shakespeare in his day.
The US government and the assassination of Tupac Shakur
linky = conservative cave
Seriously, do these idiots just sit around all day pulling bong hits and then all of a sudden come up with this crapola at random?
I must be of the greenbriar mental persuation as I read the "lyrics" and I have no idea what the "song" was saying. I mean I get that he wanted to pop a cap in a lot of peoples asses but I don't understand why.
Ultimately, it all boils down to control of the illicit drug trade in their self created ghettoes. Tupac and Biggie Smalls were from rival gangs. They were each targeted for no other reason. The federal government had no reason to pay them any special attention.
I'm sure Bush had him killed.
