Fonny is in jail so shes really on her own if you think about it. A mother has to do what shes gotta do no matter the circumstances. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281615 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281615 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 16:01:36 -0500 i also think hes innocent.

Back then females would always blame a black man for rape. To get them put in jail. Its all a set up they all know he didnt do it https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281613 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281613 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:58:00 -0500 you can be right. but also just because people do kind things dosent mean they dont do wrong. Yes i believe that Fonny is a good person but its possible he makes bad choices too. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281612 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239919?scroll_to=2281612 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:58:51 -0500 yea that is kinda weird. I think theres a meaning behind it tho https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281595 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281595 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:44:16 -0500 she was too young to be in relationships at the time. she didn't have nothing to offer because she was a child. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281593 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281593 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:42:47 -0500 shes starting to get scared and shes overthinking, nobody can calm her down right now. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281592 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281592 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:39:00 -0500 Back then kids like Fonny and Tish were treated horrible, they were treated like they were not worthy of nothing. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281588 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281588 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:32:21 -0500 he does seem ashamed to admit that. Maybe back then that wasn't considered a good thing i guess. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281586 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281586 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:29:56 -0500 After what just happened they're acting like nothing happened and that everything is just normal when it isnt. Thats weird. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281583 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281583 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:28:09 -0500 Fonnys parents relationship is unacceptable. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281582 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281582 None of this should be normalized in a relationship. I hope Fonny doesn't feed off of this behavior. Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:25:41 -0500 i agree with you. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281551 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281551 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:02:08 -0500 he didn't spit first. Tish hit him in the face with a stick that had a nail in it and she cut his face. So he chased her and then spited in her face for cutting him. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281550 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281550 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:00:33 -0500 it seems like Tish had a weird friendship with Fonny when they were younger, also with the rest of her friends. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281533 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281533 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 14:58:26 -0500 Tish talks about how proud she is of fonny, im glad that hes handling being in jail. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281297 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281297 Wed, 20 Jan 2021 15:13:38 -0500 i see that Tish and Fonny have something in common. They both dont go by their birth names, i wonder why does he goes by Fonny instead of Christened Alonzo https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281238 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281238 Thu, 28 Jan 2021 10:46:46 -0500 i wonder whats the real meaning behind the name Tish. Why did her family started calling her that instead of her birth name? Hopefully the reason they call her that is positive. https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281235 https://nowcomment.com/documents/239056?scroll_to=2281235 Thu, 28 Jan 2021 10:38:08 -0500
