So, what do you do if you’re a Republican with a deep-seated hatred of President Barack Obama? Well, if you’re 47-year-old Charlene Idelle Hunziker, of Council Bluffs, Iowa, you get drunk in public and tell patrons at P.F. Chang’s just how you feel about him. But you don’t stop there; oh no you don’t. Upon [...]

OK, so let me get this right: Bain Capital owns Clear Channel, and Clear Channel — you know, the company that pretty much owns all the radio station — is responsible for putting up racist billboards in urban communities in an attempt to scare people of color away from the polls in November? Oh yeah, [...]

I’m heading to New York City for my brother’s wedding next month. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the bright lights of the big city, so to say that I’m excited is an understatement. Hopefully this trip doesn’t end with a run-in with the NYPD like I did on one of my visits years [...]

The following video was produced with the partnership of the American Civil Liberties Union, Constitution Project, and National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. Hopefully it sheds some light on the reality that is the judicial system here in the United States, as opposed to what we see on television. Sadly, there are many people who [...]

Word on the street is that the Chicago teachers strike has officially ended. I’m not too sure about the details, but word is that the teachers union voted to suspend the strike this afternoon, and classes will resume as early as Wednesday. I’m not sure if both sides have come to an amicable agreement, but [...]

It’s one thing to critique Pres. Obama, but it’s another thing to do so while distorting the facts. You know, sorta like the GOP is known to do? Having said that, I’m now wondering if my man, Dr. Boyce Watkins is on their payroll. He probably isn’t; however, what Dr. Watkins said via his YouTube [...]

So, apparently a mentally ill Black man was shot 46 times, and killed by Saginaw, Michigan police officers almost two months ago; and, we’re just now hearing about it because it was caught on tape. Thanks to CNN and the work of a concerned citizen armed with a video camera, we’re reminded of the disadvantage [...]

Yes, you read that right: A man used the Bible to threaten a woman with rape at a Gay Pride Parade in Michigan. I realize I haven’t said anything about the Chick-Fil-A anti-gay marriage turned pro-gay marriage controversy in recent weeks. And to be honest, I’m not going to say anything about it; frankly, I [...]

Trayvon Martin’s mother filed an insurance claim against the homeowners association of the gated community Retreat at Twin Lakes where her son was killed. She’s seeking $75,000 in compensation for the death of her son. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Personally, I think it’s ridiculous on her part. I could be wrong, [...]

Just how did Wells Fargo Bank get the biggest bailout of all the banks when they said that they did not need a bailout? Reportedly, Wells Fargo Bank, the second largest bank in the US was not hurting at all. Especially, after they purchased Wachovia Bank with almost half of the $25 billion that they received [...]

So apparently black men are shooting themselves in the head while handcuffed in the backseat of police cars, huh? Shit, why not just saw ourselves in half like all magicians do? Hell, at least we’d be still alive, right? No seriously, that’s probably the best reaction I have to the story involving 21-year-old, Chavis Carter. [...]
