He was just saying that he wouldn't even have a fiction author that writes sick violence for fun at a place like this at this time.You guys should be thanking O'Reilly. I'm upset because this may start giving Nas a lot of publicity and the less I hear from him the better.You cannot however deny that while he was far from the worst at it he latched on to the street persona and lifestyle for his whole career. He more often than not uses the streets and street violence to push his image among rap fans. Just because he has a few more popular songs that preach positive messages and his street songs aren't bad as Mobb Deep's or Eazy E's doesn't change the fact that many of Nas's songs are of negative street influence.That being said, I would never be offended by his appearance. I wouldn't dream of watching it, but that's because I think it would suck. I may want to see how good Dave Mathews Band is live. I've heard great things, and I might stick my head in to see John Mayer if he's playing Blues style. I guess the bottom line is that no one is being forced to watch this.Is that you Shallow?

Because everyone is like that and Nas isn't as bad as most it's okay for him to be at a school after a shooting.To be fair I think Nas would be very respectful when he's up there. I Can and If I Ruled The World will probably show up rather than Get Yourself a Gun. Though I do wonder how O'Reilly would have handled it if Nas was a pro-constitution patriot sing Get Yourself a Gun as a statement that if more people were armed then the shooting wouldn't have happened.What I am trying to say that although O'Reilly is an idiot a lot of the time and may be a hypocrite he isn't wrong with saying Nas is a gangster rapper. He more than glorifies his street upbringing. He's not like K-OS from Canada or Will Smith. He likes the thug image and used it a lot through out his career and not just to appease the white devils that push that style. He used it to appease the street.P.S. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Nas's publicist brought the complaint made by a few students just to get Nas in the media again.

what's even more disturbing is this so-called hip hop expert they selected not sayin Nas' name right.
Everyone ignore Shallow. He's been bringing up Nas constantly for years now as proof of why hip-hop sucks because he knows Nas is respected and that people gon respond to that. But Nas is pretty much the ONLY good example he can come up with. Anyway, he is no longer a useful poster and will have to be put down for insulting Allah.
One day, Nas, Cam'ron, Luda. Lil' Kim, & Jay-z will perform @ a concert in celebration of Bill O'Reilly's death..........
