has been one of the most vocal pro-police rappers his entire career, to the point where his comments come off as insensitive when asked about police brutality. Wayne’s pro-cop stance came from the now-infamous story of him shooting himself on accident as a child and the black officers being negligent while a white cop he calls “Uncle Bob” rushed him to the hospital before he bled out., to talk about his personal experiences with the police.
