The article, in the plot summary, includes the following passage:
Shawn McArthur (Channing Tatum) is a street hustler, one day when selling counterfeit iPods and books at the corner of Radio City Music Hall he is set up on by some youths.
Now, I am not a native speaker of English, but I have read more than my share of English writing. I don't believe this is proper English and should perhaps be clarified in the article. However, I have no idea what "set up on" means, so I am unable to do so myself. From the context, I would assume that he was assaulted by the youths. Anyone?

Set up on means attacked. The word "set" has over 126 meanings, the most in the English language. Darrenhusted (talk) 20:40, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That is slang. Dozens of words in the English language have dozens of different meanings. I am a native speaker and had no clue what the phrase meant. Either way, I'm removing it for clarity's sake.Kp.murphy (talk) 14:30, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
