Just because someone has a record deal does not make them have good values. Apparently from various news reports she has pulled her weapon on at least two other people in the past.

I doubt Remy will be serving any time for this incident.

To those of you advocating and trying to justify the action of Remy are just a bunch of stupid ignorant, punk-ass B***hes with no form of discipline. The trouble with these uncivilised and illiterate so call artists nowadays, after having signed a basic record deal, automatically thinks they've finally reached, hence declares to themselves as Gangsters thinking they can assume the streets single handedly with form of organised structure. It seems to me a lot of you are confused about the word gangsters, well let me give you punks some examples, the record labels these fools are signed to are the gangsters coz they state their contract and little fools like Remy has to do exactly what the contract states, because it's an organisation with discipline. The Police are the gangsters coz they will come looking for fools like Remi when she misbehave and lock her ass up, and if she puts up a fight she just might get shot, because these gangsters are well organised. The judge or judges who are going to sentence her, if Remy decides to get fiesty with them, she will get more time in prison with no questions asked, because these gangsters are organised. So dont get it twisted you set of FOOLS.

All of us has had something taken from us at one time or another but we aint shoot anybody over it right??? damn remmi, i know you reflect back and wish you handled that much differently. if only remmi tried to gain wisdom with the same energy she exerted to aquire fame and fortune she would be straight right now...well let this be a lesson to the rest of us, we cant always retaliate to every wrong the way we would like. sometimes just sat back and let KARMA make things right. KARMA don't do no time yo, have you ever seen KARMA in hand kuffs?
