Okay, so since nobody wants to talk about mental health in the wake of this week’s Navy Yard blood bath mass shooting at the hands of an obviously mentally disturbed Aaron Alexis, I figured we can move on to something else. Yes, I’ll play your game and get back to talking about gun control even […]
I’m gonna need future mass shooters to be responsible enough to write a “suicide note” and keep it on their person before flipping out and killing innocent people.. Yes, because listening to the media speculate motive in the wake of this latest shooting, and bring up stuff like, “That one time at band camp,” irritates […]
“On this day on June 17th, 1876 Crazy Horse and Knife Chief defeated General George Crook in the Rosebud River in what is now Montana. Combined forces of Cheyennes and Lakota Warriors stopped and drove General Crook and his Crow and Shoshone Scouts and sent them back to the south. Crazy Horse made 3 suicide […]
I can think of many reasons to support immigration reform. But of all the reasons to sup[port immigration reform, I never knew that the fertility of immigrants would be one of them. Being an immigrant myself, you would think that I would have been wise to this obvious advantage. But it just goes to show […]
I want to have a conversation with Rodger William Kelly. I have never been compelled to have a conversation with any of the subjects in the stories that I post on this site. But this motherfucker right here?!! Oh yeah, we need to have a heart-to-heart conversation about saving lives, sex, and rape. Not that […]
Okay, repeat after me: “Don’t, don’t don’t, don’t believe the hype!” Yes, there’s been a lot of talk about rising premiums and how Obamacare has made things so expensive that employers are now forced to cut the hours of low-wage workers. Well, newsflash: it isn’t even 2014, and the exchanges haven’t even been set up […]
Okay, so here is a story that’s bound to get my right-wing-leaning, anti-union, anti-immigrant pro-slavery readers full of joy. According to reports, fifteen farm workers in California were fired for walking off the job earlier than they were supposed to last week. Why did they leave, and why did they expect to have jobs when […]
The Cleveland Kidnapping: Fifty Shades of BDSM Fleeting snippets of news sound bites declaring the horrors faced by the three women allegedly forcibly kidnapped and forced to live with their captors for 10 + years have been over all the networks and especially the national news aka cable news outfits. In all that I have […]
I don’t know, but my Republican friends are confusing me these days. Considering that they’ve never budged or at least presented themselves to be anything other than who they are. The fact that Republicans are pushing back against Obama’s budget proposal which seeks to privatize the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority), reeks of hypocrisy. But should […]
I’ve never been to Massachusetts, but from what I hear it’s a pretty nice place. Like all northeastern states, I suppose living in Massachusetts can be pretty expensive. Yep, I suppose in Massachusetts there are no poor people. After all, from what I’m hearing, in Massachusetts it’s takes a Bachelors Degree to get a job […]
We’ve seen this before, right? Okay, so it hasn’t happened more than once in American history; but, the novelty of having an African-American president hasn’t worn off. And why should it? Barack Obama’s most significant political success to date, came as a consequence of successful branding. Yes, it took more than a few eloquent speeches […]
It’s been a little over a week since Johnathan Ferrell was gunned down and killed by a police officer in Charlotte, North Carolina while seeking their help after a serious car crash. Not much has developed in the case since then other than that it’s been rumored that Ferrell was partying and drinking and smoking […]
Picture being a parent, signing off on a permission slip enabling your child access to what you think will be an once-in-a-lifetime educational experience that’ll enhance what your child is already learning at his/her school. Now imagine, later, discovering that the ‘experience’ you permitted your son or daughter to participate in included them being chased at night […]
This week has certainly been eventful, and not in a good way mostly. We had a mass shooting at a navy yard in Washington D.C. that rocked the nation, and just as I feared, it was done by a brotha. Aaron Alexis was reported as a man with mental illnesses that a history of gun […]
I don’t know how well the United States ranks in the world when it comes to education. If I had to guess I’d say that the most “exceptional” nation on the planet is nowhere near the top. Of course much has been said about the “Dumbing Down of America” and its pathetic public school system. […]
