    I'm sorry but your brother is a heavyweight contender and a future trainer for Kronk. Get the **** out of the streets of Detroit. None of this "you don't understand bull****". Pack your **** and move to the suburbs. Really shitty for Banks...I really hope he can down Mitchell again with all of this going on.

    You should like a ****ing idiot itliangladiator.

    Johnathan Banks is the one who had money, not his brother, and there is nothing wrong with him trying to live his own life and trying to provide for himself without leeching off of his brother.

    That being said, it is never acceptable to try to blame the victim for being killed senselessly.

    Yeah man your right, leaving the hood is easy. You know 123. How do we even know the nature of their relationship. Maybe his brother wouldn't give him money, or the man was too proud to beg.

    Just do the classy thing and pay your respect, and leave your opinion on their personal **** at the door

    Rough couple of months for Banks, hopefully his life takes more of an upswing in 2013.

    Terrible news....man, Banks has had it rough lately.

    Detroit is like hell on earth, some stats:
    34% on Food Stamps
    45% not working
    7% of 8th graders read at their grade level.

    Poor and uneducated and this is what you get...senseless killing.
