I hardly think the Beastie Boys could ever be considered "gangsta wannabees". I would say that anyone who listens, even casually, to the Beastie Boys would laugh at anyone who attempted to describe them as "gangsta".
Still, a large majority of people on this site have no problem running over to Wal-Mart to buy Chinese made goods. Unless American consumers demand better and safer products, American manufacturing companies will continue to suffer having to compete with $0.47 a day wages.

It's still a generalization of a group, and in my opinion that's never good. I have seen Grups at parent nights, book fairs, class trips, etc. I refuse to acknowledge that because someone wears a suit (not referring to your post now Elaina) they possess some great work ethic.
I understand that this forum is dedicated to people who love the vintage look, but I'm beginning to wonder if wearing a fedora effects ones head causing them to be judgemental and condescending. It's fine to look like people did in the 30's and 40's, but thinking like them is where I draw the line.
