I wonder if perhaps the argument could be made that indirectly Knight contributed to the final outcome by having involved Tupac deeper into the Mob Piru Blood/South Side Compton Crip fued & encouraging the escalation of it.

Of course Tupac ultimately made his own decision.

Theres a tragically apt little cartoon in the Cathy Scott interview of two kids watching one g' kill another, all wearing "Dont Snitch" shirts. "Now be a good little ho'" the murderous gangbanger tells the children, a billboard in the background proclaiming Rap Your Life Away! Apparently it was controversial when it was first printed in 07, & I can see why. Its pretty full on.
