Okay, Let's Talk About Tariq and Ghost
Did Tariq St. Patrick *really* deserve to go to jail for what happened to his dad, Ghost? Let's be honest, the whole thing is a messy drama sandwich.
I know, I know. Technically, someone died. But hear me out!
The Case Against Tariq
Alright, the prosecution's case is pretty solid on paper. Ghost ended up very dead.
And yes, Tariq was holding the smoking gun (or, well, the smoking weapon, anyway). The evidence *does* point to him.
Plus, let's not forget Tariq's attitude. He wasn't exactly sobbing with grief, was he?
The "But..." Heard 'Round the World
But here's the big "but." Was Ghost a good guy? Seriously, let's be real.
He was a drug dealer who wanted to be a legit businessman. He cheated, he lied, he manipulated. He wasn't exactly winning any Father of the Year awards.
And honestly, he was kind of a terrible husband too. We all saw it.
Tariq grew up in that chaos. He saw his parents' lies and betrayals firsthand. Talk about toxic family vibes!
So, maybe, just maybe, popping Ghost was more like... extreme family therapy? Okay, I'm kidding. Sort of.
Unpopular Opinion Time
Here's where I might lose some of you. I don't think Tariq should spend his life in jail.
Now, I'm not saying murder is okay. But the circumstances are *really* messy.
He was a kid, influenced by a terrible environment. And frankly, Ghost created a lot of that environment himself.
Think of it like this: Ghost planted the seeds of his own destruction. Tariq just happened to water them. Harsh, I know.
The "It's Complicated" Defense
The truth is, the relationship between Tariq and Ghost was a tangled mess. It was like a soap opera, but with more violence and less singing.
It’s hard to say that Ghost's death was entirely Tariq's fault. The blame is all around.
Everyone was partly guilty.
Justice or Revenge?
So, is sending Tariq to jail justice? Or is it just more revenge in a cycle of violence?
I lean towards the latter. Locking him up might make us feel like "justice" is served, but does it really solve anything?
Maybe, just maybe, Tariq needs therapy, guidance, and a chance to break the cycle. Not a prison cell.
Final Thoughts (Prepare to Disagree)
Look, I'm not saying Tariq is innocent. I'm just saying the situation is *way* more complicated than "he killed his dad, lock him up."
Maybe a lighter sentence? Intense therapy? A really, really long timeout?
At the end of the day, this is just my (probably unpopular) opinion. But let's be honest, you've probably had this thought cross your mind too. Don't lie.
And if not, well, thanks for reading anyway! Now go binge-watch Power and judge me later.
