Rest In Peace SLIM DUNKIN [Shooting] [Atlanta]

The music world has lost yet another rising star to gun violence. Yesterday evening outside a studio in Atlanta it's reported Detroit native Slim Dunkin real name Mario Hamilton got into an altercation with a sole individual. At that time some witnesses say a gun was produced and a single shot to the chest was discharged killing the victim. Slim was at the studio to do a video shoot. It's unfortunate this happened, the rap game really has to evolve in regards to their associations. It's pointless to argue with someone worth nothing.

Slim Dunkin recently released a mix tape that featured Roscoe Dash and Gucci Mane.

BOARDWALK EMPIRE [SEASON FINALE] "GOODBYE JAMES" SHOT IN HIS FACE

OMG, if you didn't see Boardwalk Empire last night then you missed out on PRIME TIME TELEVISION. For the followers of the show I am sure you are just as shocked as I am. As we were led to believe things were looking up for Nucky and Jimmy's relationship we were taken for an abrupt turn. Now I figured eventually Nucky would have it out for Jimmy but I thought maybe it would come next season. I mean they had enough to finish this season with a bang already. Chalky White got his "reparations" for his people being killed by the KKK, a bundle of three killers. Jimmy's father had passed and the will would set things right. Maybe? There was the Nucky trial that would have seen the show take a massive turn in plot, but no this wasn't enough.

Let's start with Jimmy, good ole Jimmy, or James if you wish. This kid for awhile has had the balls but no brains to run the boardwalk. Moving ever so quickly in his dealings all the time failing to notice imminent repercussions. Well the time has come, it's evident Jimmy is scared of what he knows which is he can't make everything "right". He's helped the blacks, sorta, spared a few lives but failed to convince the most important guy of his repentance, Nucky. After trying to kill a guy would you expect to be able to convince him it was his brother? Highly doubtful, especially a guy who doesn't give two shits about his brother and know his brother got what he needed after they had their fist fight in the green house. What Jimmy didn't do was use his head, and so for that his head was blown away. Yes, yes, BLOWN AWAY.

I'll take you back through the sequences before his death.

As you should know, but if not, Jimmy's REAL father has passed away. The time has come for Jimmy and his mother to hear out the "will" his father has left behind. Now if you're familiar with his father he was an asshole who also had the same intentions as every other crook. He was also very sick prior to him being sick this time due to his previous maid poisoning him. Coincidentally she was let off and NOT killed. Coincidentally that same maid who tried to kill the colonel was left EVERYTHING. Yes, the will stated she would receive everything. However, with some quick questioning from Jimmy in the tone of If there's no will would I inherit everything  and If I die, does my son get everything? to an answer sounding like "yes". In this instance Jimmy rips the will to pieces. He then advises his goons to re-pin Nucky's trial on Eli, forces the hand of and then kills the sex driven accuser Neary. During the trial Nucky is acquitted.

Nucky heads over the Eli's and tried to make amends, telling him he would do less than a year in jail. Eli has ton's of kids. As this is going on it's no coincidence Jimmy at this point Jimmy is continuing his charity work by taking his son to the beach for a boring looking horse back ride. Definitely fancy though for the times. So, because I have seen it many times before and can watch a show with a handful of expectations at a time I assumed this was the "let me make things right before I go moment" but for Nucky, not Jimmy. I was however wrong. During a call between Nucky and Jimmy it's made apparent that a certain person of interest has been captured and is ready for the killing hour. Jimmy known for always bringing his henchman Richard Harrow denies him the privilege of accompanying him. Already a sign. He also doesn't mention to his mom, who he recently during the will hearing told her to shut up from now on that he's leaving. Seeing his kid's happy at play he doesn't give a hug, probably to refrain from emotions. He simply walks out after saying he loved them.

The meeting:

It's raining, it's pouring the old man is standing. Go and behold Jimmy and Nucky meet in a compromising situation and Nucky has the advantage. During their talk Manny Horvitz is supposed to be killed, however a goon comes up behind Jimmy with a shotgun. Horvitz stands up to reveal the none tied rope. At this point Jimmy gives his ultimatum. He reveals that he died a long time ago in the trenches. Which at the end is shown him running out, in lieu of explosions and other obvious soldiers running away. Now because he's still alive and almost everyone who ran out looked to be killed I'm not sure if him dying in the trenches was a phrase used to describe he lost his "man" or "pride" because he ran like the rest or because he went out and killed people and lost regards for life or feelings back then. Whatever it means it didn't work. As he tried to question Nucky on who he'd be working with pointing out the obviously less gully folks around he also reminds Nucky that it'll catch up with him. The hardest thing to look at is yourself and you have to live with it. Basically trying to coach Nucky into his first kill, which would end his own life. It worked. or didn't it. Maybe Jimmy was trying to "shrink" Nucky but at the end of the day Jimmy left reality with a hole in the left cheek and a hole in his forehead.

#Weeds Season 8 Focusing on who shot the Shooter or who the Shooter shot??

Here ye Here ye, let me be the first I hope to give you some fresh pondering to do. Now as we all know season 7 of Weeds ended with a quite literal "bang". Now if you haven't watched that episode yet I suggest you go and read my previous post WHO SHOT NANCY first. So people, we have been asking ourselves who actually shot or may have been Nancy's shooter. My question is Why So Serious? I mean the bigger and better question out there I believe is who the hell shot the supposed shooter. I've been reading comments from here to there and it seems as though no one gives a damn about who may have saved our beloved Nancy's life. If we are all really intrigued about who I believe DIDN'T shoot Nancy then why aren't we heads over heels about who just gave us a new season; I hope. Crazy people.

Let's start with this, we all know Nancy didn't get shot. You said it yourself in your comments. What we do know is that there was a gun and then a gun shot. We also know that the shot was a tad bit louder than what the "normal" perception of a silenced shot would sound like. Face the facts we all don't know what a silenced gun sounds like but we all have probably heard one on a video game or Lifetime movie. So when we hear the loudness of this shot I don't believe it was the silenced rifle. I feel as though one of our favorite past time friends may have returned for a visit. Perhaps Heylia had something to say to Nancy, maybe even make amends after she got robbed. Heylia has a gun right? Didn't she shoot that gun through the window at one of the thieves? And didn't that shot sound loud and thorough like any meaty shot from a revolver of that caliber should sound? Hmm, well that's a quite possible scenario.

Another quite capable shooter of the shooter would be Guillermo Garcia-Gomez. Where the shit goes the pigeons follow? Hey maybe not but he doe's have his smarts and could possibly have known that Nancy was in trouble. Maybe somehow him knowing about Tim Scottson looking for Nancy led him to go and warn her, in this case perfect timing. Say Esteban doesn't want Nancy dead at the hands of someone else, maybe he's protecting her. He does have privileged access to privileged information doesn't he? I doubt this would be it but hey never know. One thing I know for sure is that it wasn't Isabelle and it wasn't Conrad, but I hope it's Conrad because the show needs him. If it was any of the Hodes family it would be Dean. After the robbery he has a great reason to carry a gun and plenty of reasons to want to find and speak with Nancy. Celia Hodes I hope stays away because she just causes problems.

Ok, so now I'm going to throw my best bet out there. Well my best two bets. First, Detective frank Oullette. He has all the reasons to want to spy on Nancy and courtesy of Shane the 411 on all her whereabouts. Seeing as though a large scale bust on a previous large scale mover - she went to jail as proof - would give him the uplift in spirit he needs I doubt he'd let somebody take his bacon. It would however blow his cover but he could in smart cover that up with a simple "I'm visiting Shane" excuse. This maybe would bring him on as a player for Nancy or give him the gratification of stopping an attempted assassination. Jenji Kohan said the sniper was a previous season cast member meaning anyone we saw on this season can't be the sniper. This means the Detective is prime candidate with rhyme and reason to have a gun, spy on Nancy and be obligated to protect and to serve. Sounds good to me.

Last but not least my second bet would be Emma Karlin. That tramp has nothing better to do. Not sure where she'd get the gun. But if there's some teamwork to be worked on than this right here is a clear cut "I do" in Nancy's trust book. Make sense?

So WHO Shot The Shooter?
