Can we stop glorifying Proof?

[BILI]

FUCK YOU,Why Proof just didnt shoot you instead

[slimshady89]

proof was the BOMB! even if he killed some one.. we all make mistakes kid..rip big proof fosho-

Umm, I'm pretty sure IF HE KILLED SOMEBODY, that is more than just a little mistake. In fact it was a mistake that cost him his life.

Answer my question though, whats your view on Proof seeing the guy grab a gun, so him grabbing his, and having 2 seconds to either kill or be killed..

What would you do?

And don't bring morals in to it, cos morals don't come in 2 seconds.

My answer to that question is I blame both for putting themselves in that situation. Proof had a lot of money, why was he there and getting in conflicts?

[RealSickLindley]

He was humble, he thought, why should he not go to a club with his friends just because he has money?

He had a game of pool, got in to an argument, the guy hit him, they get in to a fight.. It happens in clubs whoever you are.

And it's not even like he went there with a gun intending for anything to happen, cos he took the gun he used off one of his mates.

How many times do people say 'step away from your security' or 'don't hide behind your bodyguards'. He was there with his people who i'm sure would die for him before anyone that was paid to.

This isn't locked yet?

[Kez]

Well no, cause the guy has a point, just for the wrong reasons.

[slimshady89]

This isn't locked yet?

why should it be locked? im simply stating my opinion, its related to eminem, and its not completely out of the blue retarded

[slimshady89]

well it doesnt really have shit to do with eminem

Proof was eminem's best friend. eminem just made an album in which he made a tribue to proof. Proof has been glorified on this section of trshady. therefore it has something to do with eminem. plus my original post had the word eminem in it

I've heard that some witnesses said that the other guy pulled out a gun and shot in the air which made Proof take a gun from one of his friends and shot him.

Anyways R.I.P Proof.

Has a point? You gotta be kidding me.

Was there any survaillance (sp?) in the bar that night?

Was their any survaillance (sp?) in the bar that night?

No idea

I understand EMINEM loves and misses him, that's understandable, they grew up together and now he's gone, but for the rest of us... ummm we shouldn't. HE SHOT A GUY AND THEN GOT KILLED AFTERWARD!!! I have NO IDEA why we always make him out to be a victim.

Eminem obviously disagrees with what happened... in one of his songs he says

"proof wouldnt shoot at nobody, he'd fight first... but dwellin on it only makes the night worse"


He obviously doesn't believe the 'official' story. You know if you shoot somebody in the head its murder, and you go to jail.... BUT if you shoot somebody in the head in self defense, nothing happens. Would only make sense that the bouncer would make up a story so he wouldn't go to jail o_0

This is the alternative story

Several months later, hip-hop magazine XXL published an alternative account of the evening in a feature article interviewing Proof's friend, Mudd (Reginald Moorer), who accompanied Proof on the night of the shooting and claimed to have brought the gun that was used to kill Bender. Mudd claimed that his group went to the CCC Club after going to a strip club, began drinking and that Proof played pool against Bender. He observed Proof and Bender arguing, noting that it was "ordinary for Proof to get drunk and fight". After they were separated, Mudd claimed Bender hit Proof and a fight between the two broke out. Shortly afterward, Mudd saw Etheridge shoot his gun straight up into the air to break up the fight. Proof then demanded Mudd's gun, and after he refused, pulled the weapon from Mudd's pants and also fired into the air. Mudd claimed that Bender charged Proof, and that in the scuffle shots were fired that hit both Bender and Proof.

I think it's unfair judge on someone who has never been proven guilty.
