I did. We have BET on Sky in the UK and I saw it a couple of months ago. It showed a lot about that girl that was killed by 204th Street and the Avenues killing several non gang affiliated civilians? It seemed to be skewed towards showing black people as victims IMO which I certainly didn't like because this is only one side of the coin. Very dangerous in my opinion, I actually felt like killing somebody and I don't partake in any gang activity whatsoever. I can only think what an active Blood or Crip might have done after watching that shit.
