Florida kid makes senile grandma hold pistol and shout obsentities for homemade video.
18-year-old arrested for elderly abuse
What up Nation! Have yall noticed that the world has officially gone wild! Peep this, some idiotic 18-year-old from Florida was recently arrested for placing a semiautomatic pistol in the hand of his 85-year-old grand mother as part of a bootleg music video he was producing.
In the video, “Gangstas and Thugs” (Shown below) Michael Alfinez (18) of Lake Worth dresses up gramadukes in some “hood” gear and tells her to shout obscenities at the camera while pointing the heat. She was also said to be holding stacks of cash and making statements such as, “This is for all the pigs” and “I’ll shoot you,” while brandishing the gun. The troubled youth also admitted to police that he shot the same chrome .22 from a car window six times. I guess he was trying to establish his street cred.
He has been charged with elderly abuse, discharging a firearm in public and improper exhibition of a dangerous weapon. He was first arrested after the video was seized during a traffic stop.
When Detectives questioned grandma, they asked her the date to determine her mental capacity, she told him it was February 1908. When the detective showed her the video, she said, “They are making a criminal out of me.” She said she was ashamed and doesn’t normally use that type of language, the report says.
See and this is where politicians (and Alicia Keys) will step in and say this is the influence of gangster rap music. Where was this kid’s parents? I mean he was 18 years old but still clearly disturbed. Shoot where were his friends? I’m sure someone would have said, “Dude you’re wilding!” The world is going to sh*t…I guess Hip Hop is just the scapegoat.

This shit is funny, but sad.lol.. was it consenting?
NAH Grandma was senile
She can’t possibly consent in her mental state. Nonetheless, the problem is not rap but these misguided children’s interpretation of it. It’s also parents lack of communication to their children. Allowing them to be secluded from the family. It’s normal for teens to want to lock themselves in their room for extended periods of time but there should be a point when the parents are making them spend time with family. Learn to socialize and identify with something other than negativity. I was subjected to rap music all my life but there was a point when my mother let me know that certain songs weren’t appropriate and that I wasn’t to try and emulate what I saw on the television. All it takes is communication. Once parents start raising their children and stop letting the TV do it, there might be some changes.
So it’s the parents fault is that what you’re saying?
The parents need to take some responsibility.
I wholeheartedly agree.
Yeah! Who else is supposed to teach the children whats right and wrong? Teachers and preachers play a role too but ultimately you can’t expect anybody or anything else to raise your child but you!
Well then isn’t it the grandmother’s fault? She taught her children apparently wrong if they raised this boy to be the way he is. Eventually she became senile and vulnerable but in her healthier days she obviously didn’t do a great job with her offspring. No?
Not necessarily. She could’ve done it all right but her children chose to not pay attention to their children. I mean I don’t know this family’s specific situation and what I said was a generalization of the problem. Every situation had a different foundation. I mean even back in the day when there was a village raising a child there was still that wayward child that just didn’t want to do right. Nonetheless I was just saying that if parents today were to stop letting the TV raise their children, society might be a little better off. (In my opinion of course) You just love playing devils advocate tho don’t ya?!
I was trying to back you into my corner M. That’s all. Ha ha. I feel you though. Great points…you always bring a lot to the discussion.
silly, great pic
