MassliveA YouTube video containing images of guns and weapons that features the son of a woman who organized a peace rally at City Hall Sunday has caught the attention of Worcester Police after it has been shared recently on social media.

Melissa Watson, the woman who ran a Save Our Streets rally as the violence continues this summer, believes the video is now being shared as a way to slander her and her son as they preach a message of non-violence.

The lead rapper in the video titled “Ready for War” (Warning: Video contains violent images and graphic language) is Watson’s son Justin Roman. In an interview he said the video is over three years old, but he is no longer in the gang lifestyle.

“He’s been off the gangs for a while,” Watson said from her Main Street barbershop. “That’s why he’s helping to stop the violence. The videos have been up there for a long time. They are not new.”

Roman, whose best friend David Luyando was gunned down in Hope Cemetery last month, said he was a gang member at age 13, but left the Fellas gang over a year-and-a-half ago.

“Basically, I’m trying to turn my life around. Everything I did in the past follows me,” said the 22-year-old who works at his mother’s barbershop on Main Street. “It seems now matter how hard I try and stay off the streets it always follows me. At the end of the day, it is just a song.”

Police Chief Gary Gemme said members of the Gang Unit and other investigators are reviewing the video, but they knew about it earlier. The video, however, has percolated across social media this week.

“It is circulating at a time when we are seeing an increase in gun violence and seeing it during a short period of time,” Gemme said. “The summer of 2015 is moving to one of the most violent summers we’ve had in the city’s history.”

One court prosecutor has already noted that the city is in the middle of a gang war

The video has several images containing handguns and knifes and makes reference to the East-side being ready for battle. Watson said she told her son after learning about the video that he shouldn’t rap about what he doesn’t know about.

Luyando was watching the grave of his cousin, Javier Santiago, when he was killed. The “Ready for War” video contains a picture of Santiago in it. Roman said it is hard to have the video removed from YouTube. Watson wants her son to consider making a positive video, something Roman said he is doing.

Gemme said the video is concerning because it glamorizes the gangster lifestyle. Roman said rappers are known to rap about violence, but understands that his younger siblings and nieces and nephews could receive the wrong message from the video.

Gang Unit officers have identified known gang members and people with violent histories in the video.

Investigators will review the video and see if there are any possible criminal charges but also use it to see if gang members can be identified. Gemme said the video could also be used as court evidence in cases.

“The Police Department needs to stop worrying about an old video and concentrate on the kids driving around the city with guns in their cars,” Watson said.

During the rally some kids drove by and made threatening gestures and had a gun in their car, Watson said.

“It is an old video. It’s not really real,” Watson said. “He’s (Roman) trying to make a better future for himself. People have a lot of history in their past. People are allowed to change.”

Hey I got a question – why does every media outlet in this city go out of their way not to credit Turtleboy Sports? The video was shared recently on social media? Yea, no. This video was made last year and the only reason anyone was talking about is because we blogged it two days ago:
Screen Shot 2015-07-29 at 8.26.18 PM

Come on now. That’s just shitty journalism. I mean, we linked Masslive in this blog and credited them with this story. But when TBS writes a story it’s “shared on social media?” Typical big media trying to keep the Turtle down.

Anyway, we knew from the beginning that the guy who made this violent rap video was the son of the woman who led the “peace march” the other day, but we chose not to report that. Because quite frankly, it didn’t seem right. If a mother of a known gang member is trying to get the community to stop killing each other, that’s something that should be commended. Pointing out that her son is part of the problem doesn’t help fix anything. If Turtleboy Jr. grows up to be an asshole, I don’t wanna be blamed for his debauchery.

Plus, these people should scare the shit out of you. If we wrote a blog about them and then a lot of you people started making comments on Facebook about it, we’d kind of be putting your lives in danger. Because if you don’t think these people will kill you over a negative comment they see on social media, then you drastically underestimate the insane amount of pride Worcester rappers have in their work.

But the part that we’re calling shenanigans on right now is that they’re calling it an “old video.” It’s time stamped right on it:

That and the fact that Ms. Watson shared another one of these videos two weeks ago:

And naturally the hippies have a problem with our concern about gang violence:

RBG runs the Communities United Collective page, and of course he has an issue with us because we “don’t want to work at change.” LOL. Newsflash – change is what we do best RBG. Because we’re sick of dumpster divers like yourself who think it’s OK to block city streets, jump on tractor trailers, threaten to skullfuck people’s dads, and make up imaginary racism because you can’t get over your own Turtleboy butthurt. You’re a useless blob who has monopolized the conversation for too long, and your reign of terror is quickly coming to an end. That’s what change looks like.

Notice he also says that this video was made three years ago. Because when you’re RBG, facts don’t matter. It’s just easier to perpetuate the lie that TBS is a racist, sexist, homophobic blog that inspires insane white people to shoot up black churches.

The bottom line is, that video was extremely disturbing. And the fact that we had to even think about how we were gonna write our blog on it out of fear for our readers, tells you there are some SERIOUS fucking problems in Worcester right now that aren’t being addressed by our leaders. That and the fact that every other media outlet in this town is dependent on Turtleboy Sports for news.

    Turtleboy, I think those hippies musta got to you because the reason they started giving a duck about you was because of your racist tone and dialog involving young people and violence. You specifically outed there parents as bad parents for letting their kids grow up to be assholes, which btw when turtleboy Jr does grow up to be a racist asshole well like father like son…

    But for real tho that’s messed up that your doing your thing for real and established news outlets a legit ripping you off visiting your ppages daily for news they should hire you or pay you at least

    Keep up the good stories

    Pfft, her son is out of the life? Yeah sure, so that’s why he’s pimping out other videos from his #TeamHush group currently.
    Yeah, https://www.facebook.com/teamhush519 — they all look like such winners… roman, rosa, rodriguez… Peep their latest endeavor – an “anti-violence” biking group “bikes up, guns down” — https://www.facebook.com/BikeLife.Net

    But in all seriousness, WPD knew about these videos when they first came out, a LONG time ago. They’re useful tools to identify, track and gather intelligence on known and suspected gang members. They already have all these mopes pinned down and most already have criminal cases and/or were/are locked up. Let the police do the police work man, quit spotlighting useful investigative tools by dredging up old news. If the idiots stop posting this shit in the open, doesn’t it make it harder for police to ID and track them, which is worse for all of us? Why don’t you do a cost-benefit analysis next time before you open a can of worms you can’t seal back up.

    I support this kid getting out of the gang life and turning his life around, but “it’s difficult to remove a video from YouTube?” Don’t give me that fucking jive! Prior to a couple of days ago damn near nobody had watched the fucking thing. It’s not like it was copied and reposted by thousands of people. The little shit just needs to log into his account and DELETE THE VIDEO. It isn’t rocket science, he just doesn’t want his magnum opus to be lost to history.

    i go to work everyday. i go to school three nights a week. on the weekends I cut my grass, clean my car, etc… I think I am decent, hard-working, middleclass adult with values instilled and morals learned.
    Now…
    According to these liberal leftist hippie scumbags. I am the problem. ME! A law abiding good citizen with not so much as a traffic ticket… I’m the problem. Not these absolute shitbag human beings known as “Thugs” or “Gang members”, who do utterly nothing to contribute to society. They rob, murder, sell drugs, pimp, fight and intimidate anyone within eye contact but according to the left, but its my fault. Your right. Its me. The overweight 40 year old white guy driving a hyndai who’s obsessed with his front lawn. Yup, it’s me. I’m the real enemy to the American way of life.
    We’re losing my fellow Worcesterites. We’re losing to secular leftists, to the drugs, to the gangs, to the entitled African imigrants who hate both black and white Americans. We’re losing to grafiti, to trash all over Mendon and Barcaly Streets. WSe’re losing to a city goverment who allows and promotes the dumping of all the states mentally ill and homeless into our city streets and shelters so they can recieve a stipend from the feds. Where does that money go???? We’re losing to HEROIN!!! Losing to AIDS. Losing to subserviance, welfare, EBT and all the other social programs that were supposed to be a short term solution until you get back on your feet, not your fucking yearly salary!!! We’re losing to broken down three deckers and the slumlords who live in the suburbs and don’t give a shit about what their doing to the beauty of this city. Fine these pricks everyday til they bring it up to code. Would’nt that be a way to bring in income for the city? We’re losing to the broken, dirty trash ridden streets that havn’t been done over since Reagan was in office. No instead lets keep patching them and create more potholes so our cars get destroyed and our i
    nsurance rates skyrocket. We’re losing to 1987 mini-vans with $2000 rims and music so loud pumping out that i can hear it in my bedroom with the window closed and the A/C on.
    Have you had enough? Are you ready to take a stand? Is there someone out there who is ready to lead us in this fight for our souls? This once was a great city and I believe it can be again. Ignorance is a disease but Faux Knoledge is dangerous. I just pray its not too late.
    This is my opinion, I could be wrong.

      You are right. It’s like mother says. “Black people riot, white people move”. That is how white people show their frustration, we move. I moved, she moved, I want to move my best friend out of Worcester because her WHITE child is scared to go out of the house and every bang (car backfiring, loud door, firework, etc,..) they hear they fall to the floor thinking it is bullets. WTF kind of life is that?

    If this 22 year old is really trying to turn his life around he should probably be encouraged. Leaving a gang can be a terrifying and difficult thing to do.

    This is EXACTLY why the TurtleBoySports movement gains momentum every day. There is a LARGE number of people in this country who are tired of paying for the RBGs of the the world and getting called names if they dare question what they pay for.

      Bingo!!! The effort they spend on their amazing BS could be better utilized actually helping people or finding a job to EARN money and continue to help people. Instead they find ways to create racism from every possible angle and divide people like never before.

    Message to the gang bangers in Worcester (who many are associated with the Hippies):

    You are not fooling anybody. We got you. You are about as intimidating as a near empty roll of shit paper.

    They really want to defend that video that glorifies violence, drug use, misogyny, and materialism? What is up with the ambiguous comments meant to create real racial divide. “Is this how Dylan Roof got started” That is the kind of shit you should be condemned for. You cuc fucks are the real people inflaming racial tensions. God forbid people don’t want arrogant thugs who preach mindless shit in their communities.

    I drove though the projects the other day to hit up a local mom n pop shop for some ingredients I can’t find at the chain stores and I’ll tell you, I’m gonna start shopping on Amazon out of fear for my safety.

    I actually locked my doors at a traffic light because of a few gentlemen on the sidewalk. I’m 30 6’4 250 lbs & can hold my own but I’m not going to cut my life short because street thugs don’t like the way I glanced at them.

    A “certain” hardworking population, the few who haven’t left yet, are fed up with the ghetto gangs and their enablers that have utterly destroyed Worcester’s neighborhoods and ruined what remains of the public schools. Come November hear the roar of the decent and fed up.
