Isn't that what you said when you were striking matches out in Malibu?

I wouldn't worry- it wasn't the cops that shot him.

Although- the cops probably should have been there to stop it. I guess thats a reason to go looting. I need a new TV.

I'm guessing from the report that he made the story up, actually was shot at home w/ his drunk homies.

It's nice to see that he really turned his life around after his last run in with the law.

Cool, I'm ready to get me some booze, a new guitar and some fresh home furnishings. . .

God, I love Sublime. Long Beach's own. . .



[I don't know if you can, but can you get an order for Ons, that's O-N-S, Junior Market, the address is 1934 East Aneheim, all the windows are busted out, and it's like a free-for-all in here and uh the owner should at least come down here and see if he can secure his business, if he wants to...]

April 29th, 1992
There was a riot on the streets
Tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was paticipating in some anarchy
First spot we hit it was my liqour store
I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford
With red lights flashin', time to retire
And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire
Next stop we hit, it was the music shop,
It only took one brick to make that window drop
Finally we got our own P.A.
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today?
(Homicide, never doin' no time)

When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
So once again we filled the van until it was full
Since that day my livin' room's been much more comfortable
Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here
It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year
Some kids went in a store with their mother
I saw her when she came out she was gettin' some Pampers

They said it was for the black man
They said it was for the Mexican
And not for the white man
But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King
It's this ****ed-up situation and these ****ed-up police
It's about comin' up and stayin' on top
And screamin' 187 on a mother ****in' cop
It's not in the papers it's on the wall
National Guard
Smoke from all around

[Units be advised of an attempt 211 to arrest now at 938 Temple, 9-3-8 Temple, many subjects with bats trying to get inside the CB's house...they're trying to kill him]

Let it burn
Wanna let it burn, wanna let it burn
Wanna wanna let it burn (I feel insane)
Riots on the streets of Miami
Whoa, riots on the streets of Chicago
On the streets of Long Beach
In San Fransico
Riots on the streets of Kansas City
Tuskaloosa, Alabama
Cleveland, Ohio
Fountainberry, Paramount, Vista Buelle
Eugene, Oregon
Eureeka, California (Let it burn, let it burn)
Hesperia (Won't you let it burn)
Santa Barbara (Let it burn, let it burn)
Mother ****in' Nevada
San Diego
Lakewood, Florida
****in' 29 Palms

[Need a unit to... structure fire and numerous subjects looting]

[10-15 to get rid of this looter]

Funny thing is those guys used to live in the house about 4 down from mine before they hit the bigtime. . . Kinda' cool I guess. It's not like they come around anymore.

Not out here on the Gold Coast. You're still a source of jocularity.

Maybe for you, but that's understandable.

I live right on Ocean but about a mile or so from the Westin. They were mostly before my time but some of the guys in the neighborhood who have been there awhile remember them pretty well. I don't think they rehearsed there, probably rented space locally somewhere.
