Rick Ross on the Sean Taylor incident

So, as I was checking through the aftermath of the Sean Taylor death (R.I.P. so tragic)...

I came across an article in which Rick Ross chimed in on the subject.

I respect Rick Ross alot, and his presence makes me concur with lots of statements that he makes.

During the discussion, comes his stance on how Sean Taylor, because of previous situations, was underprepared for the situation. As Ross states:

"You know he had to take a little heat for the past situation and he felt like he couldn't have that in his possession."

In essence he's almost blaming Taylor's inability to use "tools" necessary to defend himself and his family because of the media scrutiny th
at came while he had the necessary "tools".


My take is that Rick Ross is speaking on the
naivety of the media, fans, and public about people that are from or live in certain places.

The incident comes from the first time Taylor defended himself from a "robbery" and the "tool" that was found at that moment.

So the same thing he was once chastised for having, could've saved his life.


I think it was a death that could have been avoided by many different measures, however, we don't know Taylor's full life and what people saw about him to try and get to him in particular. But, Stars/Athletes/Entertainers are like everyone else and need ways to protect themselves against others that try to "touch" them. As Ross says:
"You know he had the previous charges and whatever and he couldn't have one (a gun). That's just it though, you got to protect your life and your family. Anybody out here reading this...I'm sorry that's just my stance on it."
But what do you think.???

are athletes who keep "tools" to protect themselves in the wrong????
