Huh?
My point is that the jail system can't take care of people when they have a medical problem and the fact that people are dying when they are in for child support is doo-doo.
wow...dudes be on some real stupid shit sometimes.
R.I.P. Sean
You would know... fat ass dude probably had a heart attack.
This is Soulstrut where everything is blamed on "the man" man.
This place is a regular "White Boys Gone Wild" in between trips to the dry cleaners and Smoothie King.
Dude you're so right, he really deserved to die for not paying child support.
GTFOHWTBS.
Logic 101
yo honestly if dude was that much of a fuckin deadbeat that his ass ended up in JAIL for it? fuck him.
My future stepson has one worthless ass father that should be in the same place and I hope he falls off the face of the earth sometime soon after I adopt his kid and do all the shit his ass should be doing. Fuck a deadbeat dad
WTF you know about child support law brah? You know how hard it is for a man to get custody these days?
You know how long it takes to get child support payment reduced after you loose your baller job? My boy is going on 3 years of bringing home $150 a month while paying enough child support to float a mortgage and no work for the baby momma. NO DIVORCE INVOLVED.
Shut ya mouth.

Dogs,
Regardless of the circumstances, this cat passed away. One of the sons of one the greatest Soul vocalists died. That's the first thing that should come to mind.
As fucked up James Brown was while he was alive, I would still think you'd focus on the contributions he made to the game.
In the meantime apply your logic to any of your favorite artists while your on your sandcastle soapbox talkin some ole str8 EVIL hattery.
How does anyone work for 150 a month? Does he work like 5 hours a week at blockbuster?
Read much?
He was paying about $3000 a month in child support and that left him with $150 a month in spending. All because the child support was based on his previous job where he was making about $6000 a month.
Got it?
I know many more dads fucked over by the system than single moms. It's not 1970 anymore.
Not sayin, just sayin.
I know far too much about child custody from the fathers POV. Not that it should make a difference but a deadbeat dad is a deadbeat dad. I don't know what the particulars of Leverts case are but I'd assume that some sort of understanding could be reached before you end up being incarcerated for failure to pay child support. Effort counts in these matters
Sad that a man died, but even sadder that a kid had to be raised without a dad contributing to his life the way a father should
b/w
Now that the father passed, the kid now has less options.
