According to Bossip Ice-T was ready to unload on an unsuspecting Amazon delivery person because they came to drop off a package without no type of uniform that identified who they were and why they were there. And with someone like Ice you better state your reason for being there or leave in a plastic bag.
Message To Amazon: Now that you have regular people making your home deliveries.. Maybe they should wear a Vest with AMAZON DELIVERY on it….. I almost shot a MF creeping up to my crib last night…. Just sayin.

Clearly this should be taken very seriously since gun violence is on the rise in our trigger happy nation. When one follower asked if the person hadn’t been wearing an Amazon uniform Ice tweeted his reply “No. They don’t wear ANY uniform. Just regular people workin. I ain’t mad at them. Just sayin. That sh@t ain’t safe.”
Afterwards Twitter was torn between whether Ice was right for wanting to protect his home or wrong to resort to shooting someone in the first place.
On the flip side, it’s also pretty easy to pretend to be delivering for Amazon too. But anyway the point is, Ice T is right.

I think that’s what Ice T is saying. Amazon is outsourcing to “normal” people that are readily identifiable as delivering on behalf of their company. Perhaps measures to ensure your safety should be put in place. He may not be the first to feel this way.

Pro tip: if you ever want to rob Ice T, just put on an Amazon vest.

And as far as Amazon goes they replied to Ice’s tweet, though it sounds more like a basic generated response than one of concern for the well being of those who volunteer to deliver for them.

Perhaps Ice needs to invest in one of those doorbell devices that has a camera attached to it so he can see who’s coming first before asking them to say hello to his little friend Scarface style.
