Pat McCrory Exits Stage Left!

One bigot goes down but there's plenty more left.

Republican governor Pat McCrory has conceded. The inept governor of North Carolina was defeated in the recount. It marks an unique feat. The Republican governor doesn't cruise along with the fuhrer in waiting Donald J. Trump and Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC).

His defeat to Roy Cooper was a nailbiter. McCrory's legacy will be tarnished by the Bathroom Law that he supported. The bathroom law led to a boycott of the state.

The Republican incumbent had filed for a statewide recount last month, but lost virtually all hope of eking out a reelection victory when Cooper's lead had surpassed 10,000 votes last week -- and the threshold whereby state law allows McCrory to ask for a recount. As of Monday, Cooper was up by 10,563 votes, according to the North Carolina Board of Elections.

The concession marks the end of a drawn-out process that saw McCrory's campaign and supporters raise multiple questions about the legitimacy of the election results -- accusations his critics saw as an attempt to undermine the will of the voters.

McCrory filed complaints in about half of the state's 100 counties but no evidence of widespread voter fraud ever came to light. All of those complaints were rejected by McCrory's own Republican appointees serving on local county election boards.

Last week, the State Board of Elections -- also Republican-controlled -- ordered a recount in Durham due to a delay in the county's returns being added to the statewide tally. According to the Raleigh News & Observer, the delay came because election workers entered information from ballot tabulators' paper tapes after they were unable to read data from six memory cards that also came from the tabulators.

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory conceded the close gubernatorial race on Monday to his Democratic challenger, Roy Cooper, concluding one of the last outstanding contests of the 2016 election nearly a month after voters cast their ballots.

The Republican incumbent had filed for a statewide recount last month, but lost virtually all hope of eking out a reelection victory when Cooper's lead had surpassed 10,000 votes last week -- and the threshold whereby state law allows McCrory to ask for a recount. As of Monday, Cooper was up by 10,563 votes, according to the North Carolina Board of Elections.

In a YouTube video released Monday, McCrory said it was "time to celebrate our Democratic process" and respect "the ultimate outcome of the closest North Carolina race in modern history."

"Despite continued questions that should be answered regarding the voting process, I personally believe that the majority of our citizens have spoken, and we now should do everything we can to support the 75th governor of North Carolina, Roy Cooper," McCrory said.

Cooper released a statement in response, thanking McCrory for his service to the state and noting, "while this was a divisive election season, I know still that there is more that unites us than divides us."

According to the Raleigh News & Observer, the delay came because election workers entered information from ballot tabulators' paper tapes after they were unable to read data from six memory cards that also came from the tabulators.

Experts on the equipment told Durham officials that the paper tapes were reliable, and several political watchers believed the results would be unchanged after a county recount. Durham is one of the strongest Democratic counties in the state, and Cooper won it by a wide margin of 79 percent to 20 percent.

Having signed a spate of unpopular legislation that restricted voting, reproductive and LGBTQ rights, McCrory was greeted with a number of cheers following his decision to accept defeat on Monday.

"Pat McCrory's reign of discrimination is finally over," said the Human Rights Campaign president Chad Griffin in a statement. The HRC had aggressively campaigned against House Bill 2, a measure McCrory signed that blocked transgender people from using government building bathrooms in accordance with their gender identities.

HB2 sparked a national backlash, with numerous boycotts from businesses, musicians and sports organizations. In one of the biggest repercussions for a state where college sports is almost a religion, the NCAA and ACC earlier this year relocated several championship games out of North Carolina over the discriminatory legislation.

"McCrory's stubborn and reckless support of HB2 cost him this election, and his defeat sends a powerful warning to lawmakers across the country that targeting LGBTQ people will not be tolerated," added Griffin. "We look forward to working with Governor-elect Roy Cooper and fair-minded lawmakers to repeal HB2. It's way past time to repair the harm inflicted on North Carolina's people, reputation and economy."

Cop Walk In The Keith Lamont Scott Case!

No charges for the cop who killed Keith Scott. 

When will we see justice?

No charges will be filed against Brentley Vinson, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Metro Police plain clothes detective who killed Keith Lamont Scott. Keith's death set off a few nights of unrest.

The Mecklenburg Co. District Attorney Andrew Murray said at a press conference Wednesday that Vinson acted lawfully when he shot and killed Keith.

Vinson and other officers were after another man when this encounter happened. They found Scott and confronted him instead.

"After a thorough review, and given the totality of the circumstances and credible evidence in this case, it is in my opinion that Officer Vinson acted lawfully when he shot Mr. Scott," said Murray.

What happened at the scene merited two different theories. One saying that he was minding his business and he didn't have a gun. Rakeyia Scott said to the cops he was on his medicine and he wasn't doing anything to them.

Charlotte plains clothes officer Bentley Vinson got off a murder charge.

When asked about if Keith had a gun, the district attorney ducked it. 

"The videos show that Mr. Scott did not comply with those commands. In interviews, an officer described Mr. Scott's behavior during this incident. Those descriptions included that he had a blank stare as if he was in a trace-like state. This behavior is consistent with the known side effects of medication prescribed to Mr. Scott. Additional side effects are aggression and behavior abnormalities," said Murray.

The family isn't happy about this. 

"We wish to express our thanks and gratitude to the Mecklenburg County District Attorney Murray, his office and the [North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation] for the respect they shown the Scott family and for their willingness to explain how they conducted their investigation and the conclusions they reached.

We are profoundly disappointed in their decision not to criminally charge Officer Bentley Vinson for actions in taking the life of Keith Lamont Scott.

While we understand that many in the Charlotte area share our frustration and pain, we ask that everyone work together to fix the system that allowed this tragedy to happen in the first place.

All our family wanted was justice and for these members of law enforcement to understand that what they did was wrong.

We respectfully aks that you please keep any protest that may occur peaceful. Responding to violence with violence is never an appropriate response. This is just one more step in our quest for justice."

So, I am going to be blunt in this. I am getting fed up with this. I am tired of cops getting away with murder. 

AT&T Buying Time Warner!

Media shakeup. AT&T is purchasing Time Warner, Inc.

Media titians AT&T and Time Warner may merge if the deal goes according to plan. The $85.4 billion on the table could lead to one of the biggest media mergers ever.

Time Warner is the parent company of its cable division, Warner Bros. Studios, New Line Cinema, CNN, HBO, Cinemax, TBS, Cartoon Network, DC Comics, Time Magazine, People Magazine, The CW Network and TNT.

AT&T the telephone media giant has digital marketing and DirecTV, Cricket, Quickplay and BellSouth.

The move happened tonight in which AT&T is determined to go beyond the wireless and internet industry into television programming.

The deal has to go through government regulators and Congress approval before it's a go. It will start making moves in 2017.

This deal is huge and it could rattle the networks.

The two been discussing this issue for months. It was leaked to the junk food media on Thursday.

The confirmation came as the two companies worked out a deal to make it happen.

Charlotte Police: Yeah, He Had A Gun!

BE WARNED THE VIDEOS CONTAIN GRAPHIC LANGUAGE AND DISTURBING IMAGES.

BE ADVISED WHEN VIEWING THIS.

Looks like the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police brings their "ace in the hole."  On Saturday, the police department released portions of the video footage of the police shooting of Keith Scott.

Keith was killed by the law on Tuesday. This shooting sparked nights of unrest in which the mayor of the city imposed a curfew and the governor deployed the national guard. The junk food media is covering it from an angle that the protesters see as bias. The conservative agitators and the trolls are already licking their chops for a Donald Trump victory over these latest events.

The police were forced to release the video after the family of Keith Scott released their version to the junk food media.

The police video released shows the officers (who weren't identified) engaging with Keith. The incident shows one of the officers trying to gain access to Keith's vehicle. It captures the moments after Scott goes down, but the shooting itself was not seen.

The videos do not show Keith with a weapon. All I see from the videos is Keith getting out his vehicle walk backwards, hands at his sides. Four shots heard and then he drops.

Chief of the police Kerr Putney said that he was causing a threat to the lives of the officers.

There were two plain clothes officers. They were in an unmarked vehicle waiting to serve a warrant to another person. Keith just happened to park next to them.

Brently Vinson, the officer who shot Keith claimed that he held up a firearm. They withdrew to a spot nearby and put on their vest and then yelled, "POLICE" so they would identify themselves as officers.

Vinson claimed that Keith was ordered to drop the weapon. They call for a police uniform officer to assist them in making an arrest. An officer starts pounding on the front passenger window.

Keith would get out with the gun and back away from the police.

Police also released a more detailed explanation of the incident, claiming that Keith was wearing an ankle holster and had a marijuana blunt, photos of which they provided.

“He absolutely was in possession of a handgun,” Putney said. “There was no definitive visual evidence that he had a gun in his hand and that he pointed it at an officer. That I did not visually see in the video ... When [my officers] see a weapon and they see the marijuana they say ‘uh oh, this is a threat to the public.’”

Rakeyia Scott, the widow released her own cellphone recording of the shooting on Friday, pressure grew for the city to release footage from cameras mounted in police cars and worn by officers.

In Rakeyia’s video, she can be heard telling officers that her husband has a brain injury and that he isn’t carrying a weapon.

Protesters marched through Charlotte Saturday, chanting “no tapes, no peace” and “take our lives we’ll keep our money.” Just as activist groups gathered at Marshall Park for the procession, word came down through the grapevine that Charlotte City Council was bending to pressure releasing the tapes alongside the state Bureau of Investigation.

Of course, these items merit his death, right?

North Carolina is an open carry state.

It reeks of a cover-up!

Keith Lamont Scott's Family: It's A F**king Cover Up!

BE WARNED THE VIDEOS CONTAIN DISTURBING AND VIOLENT IMAGES

TAKE DISCRETION IN VIEWING THIS.

Looks like the victim of a fatal police shooting had enough of the delay. They released the encounter filmed from the victim's wife. This video went viral.

The wife of Keith Lamont Scott recorded the final moments of her husband's life. He was shot and killed by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg metro police after they claimed he refuse an order to drop a gun.

Keith Scott's wife yells at the cops that he has no gun on him. 

The wife screams at the officers telling them that he didn't have a gun. He had a TV guide. The video lasted 2 minutes and 12 seconds show the officer pointing at Keith's direction.

"Don't shot him, he has no weapon," said Rakeyia Scott. She tells the officers he has a traumatic brain injury and then assures them, "He's not gonna do anything, he just took his medicine."

Rakeyia yells at Keith saying "Keith, don't you do it!" It's not clear if she was telling not exit the vehicle.

Police then fired on him. He would be on the ground bleeding and the cops would cuff him.

"Did you shoot him?" Rakeyia says while recording the encounter. "He better live. He didn't do nothing to them."

The cops were marked with their bulletproof vest and they had the plain clothes. Now there's a portion of the video where an object was dropped on the ground. Some are claiming its a gun.

Others claim it's a glove.

Nonetheless the calls are growing for the law to release the body camera and dash camera footage.

The family demands the officers involved to be held accountable for Keith's death.

The chief of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg metro police Kerr Putney said that he's not ignoring the cell phone footage but he's determined to get to bottom of this tragedy.

The lawyer for the family express that the police are trying the public's patience.

"The family is still hopeful that the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department and the city of Charlotte will release all available video of the incident to the public so that people can draw their own conclusions about Keith's death,"

More developments are on the way. Another night of unrest continues in the city.

The mayor issued a mandatory curfew for the city from 12am to 6am. The Republican governor Pat McCrory activated the national guard to restore order.

GOP Lawmaker: Charlotte Protesters Hate White People!

Republican lawmaker insults his constituents.

Rep. Robert Pittenger (R-NC) is walking back his comments about the unrest in Charlotte. The lawmaker represents the city and the suburban south. He said these comments on a foreign news channel. He insulted 1/3 of his constituents yesterday on the BBC.

When asked about the unrest in the city, Pittenger basically said that the protesters "hate white people because white people are successful and they're not."

Newsflash: There are White people involved in the protest.

This the sixth fatal shooting by the police. The police refuse to release the body camera and dash camera footage for fears it may spark more violent protests.

The family of Keith Lamont Scott saw the video. They demand the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police release the full encounter. They continue to stand firm that Keith didn't have a firearm on him.

Pittenger with Donald Trump.

The law said that a firearm was retrieved on the scene. According to the law, they were serving an arrest warrant to another figure when they stumbled across him.

The Republican Party is desperately trying to win over non White votes. Donald Trump boasts he is winning with Black, Hispanic and the youth vote. Will this set him back?

This is the deplorable behavior of the Republican Party. This is how Republicans think of President Barack Obama and Black America.

The governor Pat McCrory ordered the National Guard to Charlotte.

Ohio GOP Chair: There Was No Racism In This Country Until Obama Came Along!

Republican chairwoman fired out the cannon after she said a racially ignorant comment.

You know what pisses me off! It's this conservative concern trolling about Black America ignoring intraracial violence. Like they care about our lives!

President Barack Obama and Black leaders have talked constantly about violence in America. He has passionately express concerns about how guns are easily accessible to young people. He said that Congress refuses to do something about gun violence.

Somehow they have this selective memory.

We don't ignore "Black on Black violence".

We don't ignore the racism in the United States.

I don't blame President Barack Obama for racism. Racism existed before he even got into the office.

It's a pathetic cop-out.

A woman working for the Donald Trump campaign resigns from her post after she was caught on tape saying that racism never existed. She blamed President Barack Obama for racism in the United States.

The Mahoning County chair for the Trump campaign Kathy Miller said there was no racism until Barack Obama became the president. She called #BlackLivesMatter "a stupid waste of time".

Rudy, you need to find a nice place to rest your bald head.

By noon today, she was forced to resign and gav up her elector status. She was a participant in the Electoral College. Ohio being a crucial swing state for candidates will win a huge win.

"I don't think there was any racism until Obama got elected," Miller said to The Guardian.

Miller's comment were put online yesterday and went viral today.

Her comment got worse.

"If you're Black and you haven't been successful in the last 50 years, it's your own fault. You've had every opportunity, it was given to you. You've had the same schools everybody else went to. You had benfits to go to college that White kids didn't have. You had all the advantages and didn't take advantage of it. It's not our fault certainly," she said.

In the wake of the unrest in Charlotte, you have assholes appearing on television trying to give their two cents into a matter they have no business in.

Washed up politician, Mr. 9/11 himself, Rudy Giuliani once again opens his mouth and inserts his foot in. He appears on the most annoying conservative agitator's right wing carnival to denounce Black Lives Matter. He says if he was still the mayor and there were protesters acting out, he would lock them up and send them to Riker's Island.

Tulsa Cop Heading To County Lock-Up!

This is the mugshot of the Tulsa cop who killed an unarmed man. They're so determined to smear, slander, besmirch the name of a Black man who was fatally shot by this cop's reckless call. She turned her ass over to authorities overnight. She was released on a $55,000 out of a $500,000 get out free card.

A man with his hands in the air, mind you being shot while walking towards his car.

Tulsa Police officer Betty Shelby is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. She was the officer who is facing manslaughter charges in the first degree. That charge could put her in the iron college from four years to LIFE.

The mugshot will be shown soon. But in the meantime, we'll see how this play out. Of course don't hold your breathe for a conviction. After all, many officers usually get off a murder charge. The indictment alone isn't enough.

The only way the public will be satisfied is the cop being indicted for the charges.

District Attorney Stephen Kunzweiler announced today that this officer will face a judge.

Her attorney and the police union will speak on this latest development in the case.

Shelby's attorney said that she opened fire because she feared that Terence was grabbing a weapon.

Yeah right. She was surrounded by at least five officers. Tulsa Police failed to find a weapon on him.

The junk food media reported that the Shelby had two bad marks on her record as a Tulsa Police officer.

Terence Crutcher was gunned down by a Tulsa cop who made a reckless call.

The suspect's family said that she's feeling remorse and sympathy for the family. The suspect's husband was a part of the police helicopter unit. It's revealed that one of the pilots of the helicopter said that "he was a bad dude, probably on something." The name of the pilot isn't revealed yet.

When Sean "Softball" Hannity tried to claim that Terence Crutcher was wanted for numerous charges, the local agitator shut that shit down. The most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media had this Black America town hall in Cleveland this week. This is a flop. Donald Trump spoke to a mostly White audience. Trump raised eyebrows when he said he endorses a national stop-and-frisk policy.



The softball tried to lump all of Black America's problems on Barack Obama, the first Black president. He tries and fails so miserably it's laughable.

Now he's back to his old tricks again. He tried to smear Terence by saying that he "had a long criminal history and appeared to be under the influence."

The junk food media trying to paint this officer as a "good guy".

The softball would say to a local agitator if Terence had any warrants for his arrest.

Russell Mills, a local agitator from KRMG-TV said that he has no evidence of Terence being a wanted criminal.

"Well I read that there was numerous warrants out for his arrest including one assault on an officer and drug trafficking," said the softball.

Well I'll tell you I looked up his history and I'm not seeing a lot of criminal history. We have something called the OSCN, the Oklahoma Supreme Court Network. I was able to find a protective order from 12 years ago that was dismissed. I found a couple of financial things. There's no violent criminal history for Mr. Crutcher that I've been able to uncover."

The softball would keep pressing on saying that these reports about no criminal history being false.

"Are those reports incorrect?" Hannity continued.

"As far as I know they are. I have not seen any reporting on any warrants for Mr. Crutcher and I certainly haven't uncovered any myself," Mills told the softball.

"There has been some misinformation floated," Mills said to knock down the softball's attempt to cast a dead victim as a criminal thug.

"He did not have any warrants. He had not done anything wrong. He had a malfunctioning vehicle, and he should have been treated accordingly," Crutcher family attorney Melvin Hall told the Chicago Tribune this week. The paper reported, however, that Crutcher did serve four years in prison from 2007 to 2011 on a Tulsa County drug-trafficking conviction.

Nonetheless, this divisive agitator is once again playing this game of blaming the victim for his own death. He's been on this kick of attacking President Barack Obama for the unrest in America.

Blame Game: Charlotte Uprising!

The shiny coin theory. When the junk food media covers the story, it drives the emotions, the partisan bickering and the politicians licking their chops hoping these incidents benefit them in an election.

The junk food media leaves New York/New Jersey. They head over to Charlotte to cover the unrest.

The unrest started after allegations of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Metro Police shooting Keith Lamont Scott. Some of the residents believe that the police murdered an innocent man. The police said that he was strapped to the tee and he failed to obey an order.

This comes a few days after a Tulsa officer shot and killed Terence Crutcher.

Regardless, the tensions were high and it's been brewing for a long time.

If you're a Black man, a woman who is pregnant, a worshiping Muslim, a child of an immigrant or refugee, you're really starting to see the country you're a part of come apart at the seams.

Barack Obama's final year as president has been contiguous. Republicans opposed him every step of the way.

The junk food media is responsible for the tension. Agitators on the cable networks have promoted this narrative that cops aren't the bad guys. They push the blame on the president, Hillary Clinton, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson for the uprising. And the agitators on the right have constantly blamed him for flaming racial tensions.

There was a person who was severely injured in this event.

One person was shot dead on Wednesday in a second night of unrest in Charlotte, North Carolina, officials said, as riot police fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse unruly protesters after the fatal police shooting of a black man.

Charlotte Police Chief Kerr Putney confirmed that a person shot during the protest had died but did not identify the individual or the origin of the gunfire.

However, city officials said in a Twitter message that the fatal gunshot was fired by one civilian at another, not by police. A police officer was also being treated for injuries suffered during the protests, the city said.

Putney told Fox News: "We’re trying to disperse the crowd. We’ve been very patient, but now they’ve become very aggressive, throwing bottles and so forth, at my officers, so it’s time for us now to restore order."

"We are tired of people, especially police, killing our black men," Blanche Penn, a longtime community activist, said at Wednesday evening's rally, where the mood had begun as resolute but peaceful. "Charlotte has always been quiet. But now it's time to be loud."

Sixteen officers were injured late on Tuesday and early Wednesday as police in riot gear clashed with demonstrators who hurled stones, set fires and briefly blocked an interstate highway.

Tuesday's disturbances in Charlotte unfolded as demonstrators in Tulsa, Oklahoma, demanded the arrest of a police officer seen in a video last week fatally shooting an unarmed black man who had his hands in clear view at the time.

The deaths were the latest incidents to raise questions of racial bias in U.S. law enforcement, and they stoked a national debate on policing ahead of the presidential election in November. President Barack Obama spoke by telephone on Wednesday with the mayors of Charlotte and Tulsa, a White House official said.

What Happened To Keith Scott?

BE WARNED THE VIDEO CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND DISTURBING CONTENT.

TAKE DISCRETION IN THIS VIDEO.

Here's how the police and junk food media justify a shooting of an unarmed Black man.

• He refused to comply to an order

• He had been pulled over numerous times.

• He has a criminal record (for felonies or traffic violations).

• He had drugs on him.

• He had a firearm on him.

• He had served time in prison.

• He took off running.

• He looked like he was up to no good.

• The cop feared for his (or her) life. 

• The cop deserves the benefit of the doubt

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police are on high alert after a fatal shooting of an unarmed man who was disabled. The live stream from the daughter of the victim sparked unrest in the city of Charlotte.

The officer was Black and the victim was Black. He was allegedly a plainclothes officer.

The death of Keith Lamont Scott has driven the junk food media to Charlotte to cover the "riots".

The incident happened around 4 pm. The Metro Police claimed that Scott had a weapon.

Keith Lamont Scott was bucked by Charlotte metro police. His death sparked a night of violent protests. 

The police claimed they were searching for an individual who had an outstanding warrant at the Village at College Downs apartment complex.

They claimed the subject exited the vehicle armed with a firearm. Officers observed the subject get back into the vehicle at which time they began to approach the subject. They claimed the subject got into the vehicle armed with a firearm and posed an imminent deadly threat to officers who subsequently fired their weapon striking the subject.

The name of the officer who fired on Keith, was Charlotte officer Brentley Vinson.

Vinson served the force for nearly two years. He's in the freezer pending a state and federal investigation of this situation. Police have not released the body camera or dash camera footage.

The witnesses who filmed the shooting haven't post it on social media as of yet.

It's recommended that you do not turn over footage to the police without a warrant. They could destroy evidence and try to arrest you for interrupting a police investigation (aka disorderly conduct).

The family claims that Keith was reading a book waiting on his son getting off the school bus when this incident occurred.

Brentley Vinson was the officer who fatally shot Keith Lamont Scott.

The video that set off the night of unrest is from Lyric Scott. She went to Facebook lives stream to vent about how the junk food media and the police tarnish victim's name. Scott said that her daddy was killed by plainclothes.

"The police just shot my motherfucking daddy four times for being Black," she says. "They Tased him first and then shot him".

Police claimed that a firearm was recovered. Detectives are currently interviewing witness who saw this.

The shooting brought the more than 100 people converging at the scene chanting anger at the police and denouncing the junk food media. Several individuals were injured and the police unions blame BlackLivesMatter, and outside agitators for destroying police vehicles.

The law is now in riot gear and they're throwing tear gas at the protesters. Rocks and bottles were thrown at the law. This the sixth time in the past year where the Charlotte metro police have killed an individual.

A 43 year old man who had 7 children. He was married and took care of his family. He waits on his children to get off the bus stop every day.

All these officers began wearing body cameras.

Chief of the metro police, Kerr Putney said that the officer's life were endangered and at least one officer shot Scott, the Charlotte Observer said.



Pat McCrory, the controversial Republican governor of the state signed off a state law limiting the public from viewing dash and body camera footage.

Mind you that North Carolina is an open carry state and if Keith had a firearm on him, he was well within his right to do so without being considered a "thug" or "criminal".

The concern trolls will comment on the unrest. They will name call, finger point, blame President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump for the unrest. They will claim that Black on whatever crime is being ignored and cops are not the bad guys. They will say the ridiculous hypotheticals about being armed or if it happened here....the usual word vomit of delusional conversation.

As expected, the folks over at Fox News, old fart Rush Limbaugh, internet creeper Matt Drudge, the most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media Sean "Softball" Hannity, racial agitator Colin Flaherty and the most dumbest gay conservative blogger out there, Jim Hoft will find ways to make these incidents look good for their "beau" Donald Trump.

Obviously we'll expect the conservative Black extremists to attack the character of Keith or Black Lives Matter. Milwaukee County sheriff David Clarke, Jesse Lee Peterson and Kevin Jackson will find some reason to say to blame Keith for his death. They blame Obama for "Black males living in fatherless homes" or his policies "hurting Black America."

They will demonize protesters and say that it's best to get the information before blaming the cops.

When the law bucks Black men, they probably killed a father. So it's pretty disingenuous to say that Black fathers aren't taking care of their children. Keith was a father who took care of his children.

Now his children will be fatherless. Will they justify the fact that the law took away their father?

What Happened To Daniel Harris?

North Carolina State Police trooper kills unarmed man with a hearing impairment.

#BlackLivesMatter activists are bringing attention to the death of a man who was shot and killed after a traffic stop. It's another fatal police encounter in the city of Charlotte. The fatal police shooting of Daniel Harris sparked outrage and a state investigation.

Daniel was a man who had hearing impairments. The trooper was Black and the victim was White.

Daniel was being pursued by the North Carolina State Police. The trooper observed Daniel allegedly speeding on Interstate 485, a beltway that circles Charlotte. He followed for seven miles until Daniel made it all the way home.

The trooper ordered Daniel out the car. Daniel who is deaf and mute was unaware of the order exited his vehicle and as soon as he tried to sign to the trooper, he was shot. He was immediately killed upon the shooting.

Trooper Jermaine Saunders is in the freezer after he shot an unarmed man.

Daniel was the father of a 4-year old son. His family who is also hearing impaired is calling for the trooper to be indicted for murder.

The trooper Jermaine Saunders is in the freezer pending a state and federal investigation. The North Carolina Department of Public Safety which the state police is a branch of says that their troopers are required to have training for Spanish and sign language. They are to recognize those who have disabilities such as blindness, Autism, Alzheimer's disease, and hearing impairments.

Daniel was unarmed and had no major criminal history.

His death once again bring attention to training. This trooper may have recklessly killed a man over a minor traffic violation.

A minor traffic violation shouldn't result in death.

The need for police reform is necessary. It's time for Congress to pass justice reform.

If a person with hearing impairments could shot by police, who know what could happen if the person was blind?

Kimbo Slice Passed Away!

Kimbo Slice passed away.

As we mourn the loss of Muhammad Ali, World News Today announces the death of Kimbo Slice, the famed boxer and mixed martial artist passed away at the age of 42.

At first report by TMZ, Kimbo was being held on undisclosed conditions. They said that he was in a dire situation.

Born Kevin Ferguson, he was a Bahamian-born American mixed martial artist, boxer and occasional actor. He became famous for mutual combat street fights which were spread across the Internet, leading Rolling Stone to call him "The King of the Web Brawlers".

Slice left the underground fighting scene and signed a professional contract with EliteXC in 2007. Slice competed in The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights, where he lost in his first fight to series winner Roy Nelson. In his UFC debut, Slice defeated Houston Alexander in the The Ultimate Fighter: Heavyweights finale. From January 2015 until his death in June 2016, Slice was under contract to Bellator MMA.

Slice's death was confirmed by Mike Imber, his longtime manager.

"We lost our brother today," Imber said in a text message to The Associated Press.

The cause of death was still unclear. Kmiotek said there is no active police investigation, and no foul play is suspected.

Slice was a Bahamian-born ex-football player and strip club bouncer who began competing in unsanctioned street fights in 2003. Videos of his violent knockout victories in those bouts became wildly popular online, both for his punching power and his distinctive, intimidating appearance.

He studied MMA and eventually competed in several promotions, including the UFC and Bellator, which staged his two most recent fights.

Slice's death also was confirmed by Scott Coker, the CEO of Bellator, which promoted his return to MMA last year after a five-year absence. Slice beat Dhaffir "Dada 5000" Harris with a third-round knockout at Bellator 149 in February in Houston, but the result was overturned after Slice tested positive for steroid use.

"We are all shocked and saddened by the devastating and untimely loss of Kimbo Slice," Coker said. "One of the most popular MMA fighters ever, Kimbo was a charismatic, larger-than-life personality that transcended the sport. Outside of the cage he was a friendly, gentle giant and a devoted family man. His loss leaves us all with extremely heavy hearts."

Slice was scheduled to headline the Bellator 158 show in London next month in a bout against James Thompson.

American Top Team, the prominent South Florida gym where Slice trained for many years, also mourned his passing.

"The ATT Family and South Florida community lost a legend today," the team said in a post on its Twitter account.

Slice was the star of the first MMA show broadcast on network television, beating Thompson by third-round knockout in May 2008 on CBS with the defunct EliteXC promotion. With Slice and pioneering featherweight Gina Carano as the top attractions, EliteXC's two CBS shows drew big television ratings and introduced millions of viewers to MMA.

While he went 5-2 and never won a championship belt, Slice became one of MMA's best-known figures, attracting large television audiences and crowds to his growing sport. He also had a pro boxing career between stints in the cage, going 7-0 with six knockouts from 2011-13.

For all of his glowering in-cage swagger and viral fame, Slice was extraordinarily honest about his fighting abilities. He acknowledged being an MMA newcomer with much to learn about his new sport, never claiming to be anything but a big puncher providing for his family while constantly trying to learn the sport's other disciplines.

"The guys who are holding the titles, heavyweight and light heavyweight, these guys are awesome," Slice told the AP in a 2010 interview before his second UFC fight. "I'm really just having happy days in the midst — being among them, fighting on the undercards, just contributing to the UFC and the sport. That's really what I want to do. I'm not looking ahead to winning a title or anything like that. I'm just enjoying each fight as it comes."

Slice had six children, three boys and three girls. World News Today send our condolences to the family of Kimbo Slice. He will definitely be missed.

Obama Throws Shade At Pat McCrory!

Pres. Barack Obama greets Pat McCrory, the Republican governor of North Carolina.

In Donald Trump's America, you can ban a transgender woman from using the women's restroom because at birth she was born a boy.

The Republicans in the South are still seething over the Supreme Court's decision to make marriage equal in the country. Now they're trying to sneak around the law to make life miserable for the LGBT Americans living in their states.

The North Carolina governor is hoping to rally supporters to his cause. He decides to fight against the U.S. Justice Department in a last ditch effort to bring support for the "bathroom law" that mandates citizens to use the public restroom assigned to their given birth. Those opposed to the law see it as state mandated discrimination against those who are transgender.

The feds have thrown shade on the law. The U.S. Justice Department has thrown a federal lawsuit against the governor and his cronies. The governor struck back and filed a countersuit saying that the government meddling in the law is overreach.

President Barack Obama gave McCrory the third salute today. In a sweeping move, the president issued an executive order giving transgender students full access to use any public restroom or facility according to their gender identity.

The letter, signed by officials from the Education and Justice departments, does not have the force of law but contains an implicit threat that schools which do not abide by the Obama administration’s interpretation of the law could face lawsuits or a loss of federal aid.

Yes we still believe in a mens and womens restroom. But we also believe that transgender Americans have the right to use the mens and womens restroom.

"There is no room in our schools for discrimination of any kind, including discrimination against transgender students on the basis of their sex," U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said in a statement.

"This guidance gives administrators, teachers, and parents the tools they need to protect transgender students from peer harassment and to identify and address unjust school policies," she said.

The move comes as the Obama administration and North Carolina battle in federal court over a state law passed in March that limits public bathroom access for transgender people.

By passing the law, North Carolina became the first state in the country to ban people from using multiple occupancy restrooms or changing rooms in public buildings and schools that do not match the sex on their birth certificate.

"No student should ever have to go through the experience of feeling unwelcome at school or on a college campus," Education Secretary John King Jr. said in a statement.

Protesters in Raleigh, NC.

"We must ensure that our young people know that whoever they are or wherever they come from, they have the opportunity to get a great education in an environment free from discrimination, harassment and violence," he said.

The Obama administration letter will say schools may not require transgender students to have a medical diagnosis, undergo any medical treatment, or produce a birth certificate or other document before treating them according to their gender identity.

Pat McCrory is the Republican governor who divided the nation.

Donald Trump is the most polarizing candidate running for president. Trump did speak on the law being bad for North Carolina. He quickly retracted his comments saying the matter is a "state's rights" issue.

Trump's allies in the junk food media (i.e. The Drudge Report, InfoWars, that annoying agitator Sean Hannity, Fox News, and Breitbart) have ignored this controversy.

North Carolina Pass Anti-LGBT Law! Boycotts Begin!

Pressure mounts on inept governor. Pat McCroy pressured to reverse his decision on North Carolina's anti-LGBT law.

The LGBT community fought this all the way to the Supreme Court for the right to marriage and they won. They succeed in getting marriage recognized in all 50 states and 6 territories.

Now they're back again fighting battles in the old south. But this time, our friends who are transgender are fighting for the right to use the public restroom without being summoned to court.

Pat McCrory, the Republican governor of North Carolina signed off anti-discrimination law which seemingly forgot to include North Carolina's LGBT community. The House Bill 2 was signed into law this week causing a major backlash.

Now it's set off a shitstorm of controversy. McCrory actively pushed for the law because according to his supporters, they don't want a hairy face man wearing a dress entering the women's restroom being a total pervert.

The Bathroom Law as many in the junk food media call it says that it bars transgender women and men from using facilities not based on their "biologically given" sex.

North Carolina passed a law that discriminates against transgender Americans.

The resulting legislation went further. Now cities, towns, and counties can't pass anti-discrimination rules beyond a new state standard. And public schools, public college campuses and government agencies must require bathrooms or locker rooms be designated for use only by people based on their biological sex.

McCrory's office released a statement Wednesday night, saying "the basic expectation of privacy in the most personal of settings, a restroom or locker room, for each gender was violated by government overreach and intrusion by the mayor and city council of Charlotte."

The governor also said the "radical breach of trust and security under the false argument of equal access not only impacts the citizens of Charlotte but people who come to Charlotte to work, visit or play. This new government regulation defies common sense and basic community norms by allowing, for example, a man to use a woman's bathroom, shower or locker room."

Lambda Legal, the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU of North Carolina, and Equality North Carolina condemned McCrory's action, and announced after the bill became law that the organizations are exploring legal challenges to the law.

Charlotte, NC. The largest city of North Carolina with a population of 800,000 people.

The resulting legislation is a wide-ranging measure that blocks local governments from passing laws protecting LGBT people, requires schools to designate single-sex bathrooms based on “biological sex” and preempts city policies involving wages, benefits and other workplace regulations.

"Instead of solving any real problems, the law would create new ones and could lead to intolerable and unfair conditions for transgender students who are entitled, by federal law, to a safe and equitable education," said Tara Borello, a senior attorney with Lambda Legal.

Republican majorities in the state House and Senate easily passed House Bill 2, blocking Charlotte's bathroom ordinance.

But something very unusual happened in the Senate - frustrated Democrats refused to vote on the bill, and walked out.

Republicans argued that Charlotte had no authority to approve a city ordinance allowing transgender people to use the restroom aligned to their gender identity, a move to protect transgender citizens who felt intimidated or bullied in public restrooms.

HB2 blocks the ordinance and bars any other local government from enacting a similar measure.

"It's a terrible day for North Carolina. It's a terrible day," said Serena Sebring, a member of Southerner on New Ground, a group who came to oppose the General Assembly's vote. "People are harmed, people are going to be continued to be harmed. I would say shame on this state, shame on our lawmakers."

Social conservative activist Tami Fitzgerald led the fight against Charlotte's ordinance, arguing it gave license to sexual predators to enter the ladies' room.

"We're very pleased with the outcome", Fitzgerald said following the Senate vote. "Really it was just common sense, not to allow men in the women's bathrooms".

North Carolina happened to be facing some major heat from business leaders and activists.

PayPal, Dow Chemical, the NBA, the NCAA, Google and other businesses oppose North Carolina’s new anti-LGBT law.

The NBA All Star Game will be held in Charlotte for the 2016-17 season. They could pull out if the governor stands firm on his decision.

So it's back to the old ways of the Republican Party. The culture war is back in full swing.

Bloody Oranges!

Damn

So far the race has ended beneficially for the controversial media mogul Donald J. Trump. He's won the biggest prize of Super Duper Tuesday! The wins destroys a rival who the establishment crowned their candidate.

The results are in. Ohio and Florida are the biggest prizes for the Democrats and Republicans running for president. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton can seal the deal if the turnout is in their favor.

For Marco Rubio and John Kasich, it's due or die.

Victories!

Donald Trump is declared the winner of the Northern Mariana Islands Caucus. The U.S. territory overwhelmingly went to Trump.

CNN projects that Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump secure Florida. Major blow to Marco Rubio.

Rubio concedes the race. The junk food media says that Rubio is dropping out. A heckler mocks the senator while he's delivering his speech. The political tides have shifted. Rubio ends the presidential campaign.

The turnout for Rubio isn't in the majority of Florida. He also announced that he will not seek reelection for senate.

Donald Trump ends with a huge lead in the Sunshine State. Hillary Clinton managed to grab a hold of Florida's Hispanic and Black population in the state. Clinton healthy win has given her some motivation.

Missouri is a state that Ted Cruz put some work in. The Republican managed to tap into the bible thumpers and gun owners. There's a slight lead for the Texas senator. 

North Carolina is closing up with Trump and Clinton likely winning. We can't call the race until CNN and AP projects the results.

The AP reports that Hillary Clinton is winning North Carolina. This comes a huge blow to Bernie Sanders. Sanders campaigned hard in the Ashville, Greensboro, Charlotte, Winston-Salem and Raleigh. The Black and Hispanic vote and working class women vote went overwhelmingly to Clinton.

Ohio gives the victory!

The AP and CNN project that John Kasich wins Ohio. The first win of the inept governor. It signals that Trump and Cruz will still have Kasich in the race. Kasich gives his victory speech.

A heckler interrupted the inept governor. Trump's call to disrupt rivals is working.

The inept governor had a managed to win his state in a bitterly fought race. With Rubio out, it's a three man race. Ted Cruz wanted it to be a two man race. It's not going to be like that. Now the establishment is backing Kasich. The meddling of Mitt Romney paid off in Ohio. The state that is extremely crucial to the U.S. Presidency has given its prodigal son a victory.

Now it's going to LIKELY a brokered convention in Cleveland. Conservative agitators dismiss Kasich for being a spoiler to Cruz and Trump. The Republican civil war is fully engaged.

The cracks are happening. Republicans fear that this moment could happen. The civil war is out in the open. If they steal the election from Trump, many voters could sit it out. If they nominate Trump, the Republicans may lose a generation of voters.

Michelle Malkin goes after Matt Drudge for posting a Ted Cruz smear. Ann Coulter slams Fox News and Cruz for being ambitious to attack Trump's supporters instead of the protesters. Mark Levin endorse Cruz for president. Ben Shapiro, editor at large/president and Michelle Fields quit Breitbart News after Joel Pollak and Stephen K. Bannon ignored the concerns of staffers being treated wrong by the Trump campaign.

Fields was manhandled by Trump's right hand man Corey Lewandowski. She announced she's pressing charges and filing a lawsuit against the campaign.

The Blaze Network is struggling after Beck's rally to stop Trump.

Failed presidential candidate Ben Carson admits that he's still bitter about Donald Trump and Ted Cruz ruining his bid. He admits that he didn't support Trump. He said that Trump promised a position in his administration if he won.

AP and CNN calls the state of Ohio for Hillary Clinton. The former secretary of state wins handily.

It's going to be harder for them to win!

Clinton's motivation in Cleveland, Dayton, Toledo and Columbus helped her. Clinton's win make her the clear frontrunner in this race.

Clinton comes out proud securing three major states that she was struggling to win. Florida, North Carolina and Ohio went for her in a huge turnout. Now Clinton's delegate lead has increased.

She gives her victory speech thanking Sanders. The Clinton campaign asks for voters to support her in order to stop Trump and Cruz from winning the election. Clinton knocks on Trump for his extremist rhetoric and hammers Republicans for flexing the only muscle they got, their goddamn tongues.

CNN and AP reports that Donald Trump wins the state of Illinois. The huge victory knocks John Kasich's Ohio victory down slightly. Ted Cruz was hoping to upset Trump.

Trump will acknowledge Cruz's dismal results. He will also go after Kasich and Rubio.

Failed presidential candidate Marco Rubio hasn't endorsed any candidate for president.

Bernie Sanders gains traction in Missouri. The Vermont senator could have a victory since Michigan.

The Michigan race was a big shakeup for Hillary Clinton.

CNN and AP reports that Donald Trump wins the state of North Carolina. The victory stops Ted Cruz's win in most of the Deep South.



Trump's victory speech.



Kasich's victory speech.



CNN and AP projects that Hillary Clinton won the state of Illinois. Missouri is close to call, it seems like Bernie Sanders may eek out a victory in the state.

It's told that conservative leaders will secretly meet in Washington, DC to decide on what they're going to do about Donald Trump. They have thoughts of running an insurgent to take on Trump.

It's confirmed that Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton won the state of Missouri. Bernie Sanders will not engage in a recount. It comes a blow the Sanders campaign. Ted Cruz also will face a tougher road to victory.

Junk Food Media Shames Cam Newton For Being Human!

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton walked out of a presser. He was upset over the Superbowl 50 loss.

The disappointment was written on NFL quarterback Cam Newton's face. The Carolina Panthers were defeated by the Denver Broncos in Superbowl L. Newton was clearly disappointed in the loss.

He stormed out of the presser when they continued to ask him about his strategy.

The newly crowned league MVP walked out on reporters after answering only a handful of questions, mostly with short answers, following the 24-10 loss. He did so while wearing the hood of a black hoodie pulled over his head.

The junk food media now blasted him for being a "sore loser".

Of course, this is how they paint Black men when they're expressing emotions. They want Black men to never cry. They want Black men to show gratitude towards being defeated.

They believe that Cam's behavior shows "uppity" or "cockiness". They wanted him to take it down a notch.

Legendary moves for Carolina's Cam Newton.

ESPN News reports that Newton is taking the loss with dignity and doesn't appreciate people making his emotions a "big deal".

"I've been on record to say I'm a sore loser,'' Newton said Tuesday as players cleaned out their lockers. "Who likes to lose? You show me a good loser and I'm going to show you a loser. It's not a popularity contest. I'm here to win football games.''

Newton said if he offended anyone, "that's cool."

He added: "But I know who I am and I'm not about to conform nor bend for anybody's expectations because your or anybody else's expectations will never exceed mine."

Newton hasn't spoken to the media in his previous four seasons on exit day, but he felt compelled to talk Tuesday amid the criticism. He said there were no regrets about how he handled himself after the loss.

"It happened,'' he said. "I didn't want to talk to the media at the time. The truth of the matter is I really still don't want to talk to the media. But at the end of the day, things have to happen.

"I had a lot of time to go back and play everything back. I'm human. I never once said that I was perfect. I never proclaimed that I was perfect, but at the end of the day, people pick and do things of that sort.''

Carolina coach Ron Rivera said criticism of Newton was unfair. While he might have preferred Newton handle the postgame differently, he didn't ask his quarterback to speak to the media on Tuesday.

Rivera commended Newton for that.

"Obviously somebody had a great conversation with him and explained it to him and he was able to compose himself and speak to you folks,'' he said. "That's huge. What he did today was a part of his growth. He is still growing and maturing as a man in this world.''

Asked why Newton is a target for criticism, Rivera said because people "don't know him.''

Mutual respect for Payton Manning.

"If you took the time to know who Cam Newton is, if you saw all the things that he did, there would be much more of an appreciation for who he is as a person,'' Rivera said.

"People draw something on a snapshot. Don't take a snapshot. Take the whole album. Take time to read the whole book. ... This is a young man that some people are looking at the cover and they're looking at it the wrong way.''

General manager Dave Gettleman, in talking about Newton's postgame behavior, said one of the things he looks for in a player is somebody who "hates to lose.''

"We all handle things differently,'' he said. "It's hard.''

Several teammates gathered around Newton while he spoke and shouted "We love you!'' They also playfully sang: "Hurray for Cam! Hurray for Cam! Hurray for Cam, he's a horse's ass.''

One of those was fullback Mike Tolbert. He agreed with Rivera that criticism of Newton has been unfair.

"He's a competitor just like everybody else,'' Tolbert said. "You look at the guy. He's not happy at all about what happened. I'm not happy about what happened. I don't think anybody that played in this game was happy about what happened.

"So why should we be all smiles when the game is over?''

Newton smiled at his teammates' support, but otherwise was defiant in his defense of himself. "The truth of the matter is, who are you to say your way is right?'' he said. "That's what I don't understand. We've got all these people condemning, and saying he shouldn't have done this, that and the third. What makes your way right?''

Newton also was defiant in vowing the Panthers will return to the Super Bowl, reminding everyone they had only two losses all season, while some teams lost their first two games.

"I've got no more tears to cry,'' Newton said. "At the end of the day, when you invest so much time and sacrifice so much and things don't go as planned, the emotions take over. That's what happens.

"As far as trying to be like this person, trying to be like that person ... the truth of the matter is I'm not trying to be like this person.''

Newton said the league is great with him or without him, and that he doesn't plan to change.

"I said it since day one, I am who I am, I know what I'm capable of and I know where I'm going,'' Newton said. "I don't have to conform to anybody else's wants for me to do. I'm not that guy."

Newton also defended himself for not diving to try to recover his fumble in the fourth quarter that eventually was recovered by the Broncos. Denver went on to score a touchdown to put the game out of reach. Newton said that he would have risked injury by diving, as it would have meant he would have had to twist his leg in an awkward direction.

"I didn't get the fumble,'' Newton said. "We can play tit for tat. I've seen numerous quarterbacks throw interceptions, and the effort afterwards ... they don't go. I don't dive on one fumble, because of the way my leg was, it could have been [contorted] in a way.

"We didn't lose that game because of that fumble. I can tell you that.''

Real Men Do Cry!

Arizona Cardinals get roll'd by Michael Jordan crying meme.

I happened to watch the NFC championship game between The Carolina Panthers and Arizona Cardinals. The game was on Fox network and it was probably watched by 33 million. The X-Files reboot came right after the game. 

The Panthers ran a train on the Cardinals. The Panthers will face the Denver Broncos in Superbowl L (50). They will play on February 7th at the Levis Stadium in Santa Clara, California Levis Stadium is home to the San Francisco 49ers.

The loss was hard for QB Carson Palmer and his team. The Panthers won 49 - 15 in an epic blowout.

Twitter mocked the Arizona Cardinals by posting a crying Michael Jordan meme.

Although we got a good laugh out of this, I want you to know that we need to understand that it's part of emotions that men have.

It's considered a stereotype among men. Men never should cry.

Men are often regarded as "strong and dominant". They are the protectors and enforcers. They are the leaders and the head of pride. They are the key to the door. 

Of course, that's all bullshit. 

Cam Netown poses with hip-hop acts Jeezy and Future.

We're living in a generation where men are still making twice as much than women. A man could make 3X more money than women for the same job. Women are rising in roles in business, government, technology and entrepreneurship. Single parents are leveling out but it's still exists in growing segments of urban America. 

Men do cry. 

John Boehner the former House Speaker was notorious for crying at events.

Oh, I forgot. Michael Jordan was at the Bank of America Stadium. Also Carolina QB Cam Netown was posing with rappers Jeezy and Future.

Barack Obama Travels On Your Roads!

Barack Obama gets name recognition.

Conservative are probably outraged that Barack Obama is getting name recognition. It happens to be those tax payer roads that conservatives travel on.

Rivera Beach, Florida decided to end to changed the name of Old Dixie Highway to President Barack Obama Highway.

President Barack Obama Highway has replaced the previous name, which harkens back to the slave-holding South. The move follows a 4-1 city council vote in August to remove the word “Dixie” from all public signage.

Riviera Beach Mayor Thomas Masters, whose city is 66 percent black, spearheaded the effort to name the highway, which at one point intersects with a road named after civil rights icon Martin Luther King, Jr.

There are schools, roads, buildings, and yes animals named after the current 44th President of The United States.

The signs go up and the name will be official at the start of 2016.

East St. Louis, Illinois renamed 4th Avenue after Barack Obama. Off Interstate 55/64, the first officially named road after Barack Obama.

Many of the old Confederate "heroes" are being stripped of their honor. Jefferson Davis, the first and only president of the Confederacy was stripped of his title in New Orleans.

The council removed the Davis and Robert E. Lee memorials from Orleans Parish (of course New Orleans is consolidated-parished).

I used to work with this old lady who hated Obama so much, she would call him everything but the president. I got her so riled up when I said that Barack Obama is half-White. She said that he's always doing thing for Black people and them Mexicans. She hoped someone would attempt to assassinate him.

Thankfully she's no longer working at the job. She got herself fired out the cannon for misconduct.

But I bet you money that if my community decides to name a road after Obama, I bet she wouldn't travel it.

Oh, her name is Dixie. Cue the irony!
