    Bill Nunn said Decepticons. For those who were in high school in NYC during those years, they a crew 75 to 200 teens causing terror on the trains from 1984 to 1992. Though mostly out of Brooklyn, they had members in Manhattan, Queens and the Bronx as well.
    Mr. Bill Nunn is a G for that. Mr. Bill Nunn's acting skills made him G alone. Rest in peace brother.

    DTRT was definitely robbed of an Oscar. Aiello deserved his nomination for supporting actor, but Esposito (Buggin' Out) and Bill Nunn (Radio Raheem) both deserved to be nominated as well. Lee also should have been nominated as director and lead actor.
