    That's a shock.

    Apparently that's the testimony of another bouncer, so I'm kinda skeptical until I hear both sides. Unfortunately there's no video surveillance.

    Somehow I don't see it happening that way. Even if it did, there was no reason to fire if Proof didn't do so first. A boucer's job is to protect, not to kill.

    Based on this report, Proof fired first and injured the other man, while a third party shot at Proof and killed him. Which is weird to hear considering that friend and family have never described Proof to be the kind of person looking for trouble and instead was less violent. It would be a shame and even more devastating if Proof ended up firing at somebody which ended up costing his life because of being drunk.

    Well, you can rap about it, it doesn't mean you think that way.

    D12 was tailored toward a certain audience. You can't really rap about whatever you want when the rest of the group is already set on going one way or another.

    And we've already had evidence that D12 in general are nice people and donate to charities (as that Reverend or whatnot said in a quote earlier in the thread).

    Just because you rap about drugs and sex and gangs doesn't mean you're necessarily involved in it. Take a look at Kanye talking about living a hard life.

    Towards Proof, I find it hard to believe that he fired the first shots.

    This was really hard to believe when I first found out. The first thing I thought of was the Like Toy Soldiers video. I used to be a huge fan of D12, and Proof was really good. I hope the rest of the group gains strength from this and keeps going. RIP Proof and Bugz.

    It's so strange how the Toy Soldiers video almost predicted what happened. Perhaps Eminem had a dream where Proof was killed?

    Well, the guy pulled a gun on him first so Proof probably pulled his and made sure he got the first shot off so that the guy didn't shoot him. Which ended in him being killed anyway.

    Wasn't the Like Toy Soldiers video making reference to when Ja Rules boys ganged up on Proof and attacked him in some club?
