NO, I don't think in that scenario that 50 cent would be partially responsible at all.

All of the responsibility lies squarely on the individual like I said earlier. This whole blame game about passing it off on other people needs to stop. Just like how they went on a witch hunt about how Marilyn Manson and playing violent video games made that kid shoot up some other students at school.

BULLSHIT
