To dude asking about where to get them SF pieces made.hit me up and ill get you to him
As far as them blood diamonds, there's a ton of dudes in here who's stones are blood diamonds but they don't know or could pretty much careless.That's just the way it goes to keep it 100. It hurts and im African. Anyone telling you "were 100% free Blood Diamond" is BSing or really thinksthat and doesnt know. How the hell would that person know when tons and thousands of diamonds are passed around? Use Logic. What do i know though...

its like if someone loved eating fast food, but you showed them what
it does to your body, does that mean they will stop eating it? maybe, maybe not
but at least you KNOW, even if you decide to put it in the back of your mind.

Most diamonds from India and Israel still come from Africa...they are just sent there for the finishing and transportation processes.
Stop lying to the people Ben...ain't no diamond mines in Israel.

Roughly 49% of diamonds originate from central and southern Africa, although significant sources of the mineral have been discovered in Canada, India, Russia, Brazil, and Australia. They are mined from kimberlite and lamproite volcanic pipes, which can bring diamond crystals, originating from deep within the Earth where high pressures and temperatures enable them to form, to the surface. The mining and distribution of natural diamonds are subjects of frequent controversy such as with concerns over the sale of conflict diamonds (aka blood diamonds) by African paramilitary groups.
One hallmark of the trade in gem-quality diamonds is its remarkable concentration: wholesale trade and diamond cutting is limited to just a few locations. 92% of diamond pieces cut in 2003 were in Surat, Gujarat, India.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond#cite_note-conflict-49

Go to Africa and ask them if they want Americans to stop buying their blood diamonds and see what they say. Boycotting their diamonds hurts them even morebecause it takes away the little work they have no matter how awful it is.
Ninjahood will likely never get his Jacob Jesus piece period.
RJWco made a very serious Jesus piece and yes it is better than Bens. I don't think that the Loso piece is even that nice...and I feel like the diamondsaren't even that great of a clarity.

Answer me this, why did our ancestors work so hard to free us from chains, yet we continue to pour our money to place them around our necks?

Go to the 1800's and ask black people if they want to stop being slaves, see what they say. Boycotting slavery hurts them even more because ittakes away the little work they have no matter how awful it is.
