Royalty Baby!

British royal couple will announce their baby in coming days.

Prince William (Duke of Cambridge) and his wife the Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton) are parents.

Confirmed by the Associated Press, Middleton has delivered her child. The news broke around 2:30am (EST) confirming that she was heading to the hospital.

The announcement of the child will be written down by the doctor. It will be sent in a paper envelop or seal and sent to Buckingham Palace.

It will be posted on the gates of the palace confirming the child is born.

Born in 1982, William, the son of Prince Charles (Senior Prince of Wales) and Princess Diana (Princess of Wales) has been the heartthrob of the royal family. He and his brother Prince Harry (Prince of Wales) are ambassadors of goodwill and members of the Royal Air Force.

William is the second in line of royal succession. The current head of state is Queen Elizabeth II, the grandmother of William and great-grandmother of the child.

Queen Elizabeth II is the longest serving monarch in modern history. Since she was 25, Elizabeth II served over the British monarchy for over 60 years. Prince Charles is the successor in waiting.

Big news over in the United Kingdom.

We wish the royal family well and hope the best.

What's The Deal With Loserville Running Pictures Of Trayvon Martin With The Gold Teeth?

The folks over at Loserville run this picture on their network to scare their guillible audience into thinking that Trayvon Martin is a "scary Black man".

You notice every freaking time I've tuned into Loserville News Sunday they covered Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman controversy!

The protest rallies happen over the weekend and I've seen the coverage. This network uses more pictures of Trayvon Martin with gold teeth than normal pictures of him as a young teenager.

As with most news channels, Loserville has covered the aftermath of the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman controversy. In a way, they'll claim that they're the only network that gave a "fair and balance" approach to the George Zimmerman trial.

The conservative agitators (and those on this network) will say that it's the fault of President Barack Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, NAACP, Rev. Perm and Cut His Nuts Off Jackson.

In some way I've come to notice that Loserville uses the pictures of Martin showing off his "golden grill". The picture of him with gold teeth is something of significance to the conservative/white supremacist bubble.

Whenever they use these picture of Trayvon Martin in a negative light, it makes me shake my head.

The pictures of him blowing smoke rings, flipping the bird, wearing his earbuds and having pictures with his gold grill: SOUND THE ALARMS, SCARY BLACK GUY!

Loserville makes claims about the unarmed teenager. 

This is the subliminal stuff that goes on in the conservative media. They want to run around with this notion that the teenager is a violent prone thug. Clearly, that's what the ALL WHITE JURY saw in the evidence.

That's clearly what George Zimmerman, his brother, his father and his wife see in Trayvon Martin, President Barack Obama and every Black male teenager in America.

Whenever the pictures appear on the white extremist shitholes, I've looked upon this as how conservatives look upon Black America as the "enemy".

They'll line up tokens to disspell the notion that conservatism isn't dosed in racism. Note I said conservatism, not Republicans. The Republican Party is a national party that supports conservatism. So if it's guilt by association, then hell they're enablers of the extremism within the conservative movement.

Look here, That Guy Who Helped Obama Win is the country's enabler of extremism. He goes to the defense of the racial extremists and nit wits.

This network and conservative talk radio are enablers of extremism. You listen to the agitators. You listen to the callers. Think about it?

The Republican mouthpiece.

The White extremists are upset over the fact that the Hispanic population is growing. They're upset that the nation would elect in their mind a "morally stupid" person like Barack Obama to be the nation's president.

The White extremist are so concerned about crime statistics in the urban communities only when it comes to issues such as a White man killing a Black man. They don't see that White males are more dangerous than the Black man, the Latino man and the practicing Muslim.

You hear all this talk about gun control in urban areas. They want to take away guns from those who defend themselves when police aren't there to protect them in their own neighborhoods. They want to give White men more opportunities to carry firearms in the public. They'll allow them to use them in bars, schools, and churches.

They'll be figuring ways to collapse laws that protect the innocent. So you know if every state would have a "Stand Your Ground" law, it would be the "Splinter Cell" video game.

Loserville and the conservative agitators in the media are the reasons for unrest in America. They sought opportunity to take advantage of the first Black president by calling him things that you'll never hear them say about a White president. I mean we all have our disagreements with our leaders, but this one is different.

President Barack Obama is constantly on egg shells when it comes to race. Knowing that a lot of people are still uncomfortable with his race, he tries to appeal as best as he could to most issues.

They don't give him a break when it came to Sandra Fluke. Fluke was a 30-something White woman who became a target of a smear campaign over issues that affect woman (of all color).

They didn't give him a break when it came to Chardon, Ohio, Clackamas, Oregon, Aurora, Colorado, Newtown, Connecticut and Chicago, Illinois. They figured that he's trying to take their guns or he's trying to muster his muscle.

He can't catch a break from either the Democratic Party or the Republican Party.

He's not perfect. But in the minds of conservatives, he's either a SOCIALIST or a NIGGER. Or perhaps both.

And where would they get this notion from?

The country's most watch news channel.

Thanks Chief Roger and Rupert Murdoch. Yellow journalism exists in America.

Lastly, we'll get something out of the way. The comments from some of the WHITE EXTREMISTS who visit Journal de la Reyna.

Anonymous said...

Oh god, could you be any more overdramatic? No one gives a fuck about race in a case like this-- the guy is clearly a psychopath. The race issue is more in your head than in the collective consciousness of america. You're making the fucking problem worse by making everything about race when it's not. Go away.

6:00 PM

First things, first, we will not go away! As long as I have a voice and S. Baldwin has a blog, we'll continue to move forward. We will put the prospective of what goes on in this blog and hope to accomplish a goal.

The goal is to bring light to injustice. The systematic injustice in how the junk food media covers stories about people of color. Whether they're Black, Latino, Asian, or Native American, the junk food media looks at us as the "enemy".

Overdramatic is the comments you've left.

Go away? Never.

Yeah, I agree that this person in Cleveland, Michael Madison is a monster. He was a horrible human being who should be sent to Yemen or Saudi Arabia. They'll either hang him or stone him for rape.

Those in the Middle East fear the judicial system. It's literally life or death over there.

But still, your comments are a reason to why it's very important to continue on. Race isn't much of an issue.

It's not collective consciousness to be concerned.

How could I be fucking up the country when I have the "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" to say whatever the heck I want. I didn't see any rules against challenging the "status quo"!

Again we respect an objective opinion here. We have right to post our opinion as you are given the right to say whatever you want on the comments section.

Although I've deleted it and hope the next time you respond, you leave a name to it: I see nothing wrong with what I've said.

I promise you that there's more to come.

Jay-Z & Beyonce Appears At Rally For Trayvon Protest!

Beyonce, Jay-Z, and Al Sharpton appear with Trayvon Martin's mother Sybrina Fulton. Fulton is pushing for stricter gun control laws and asks for the U.S. Justice Department to look into how Sanford Police botched up. The Justice Department are getting involved with the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman case.

The rapper and his wife, pop singer Beyonce are featured players in the Trayvon Martin rally.

In New York, where Sybrina Fulton and the Reverend Al Sharpton (Rev. Perm) were calling upon the U.S. Justice Department to bring hate crime charges against George Zimmerman.

Zimmerman was found not guilty in the murder of Trayvon Martin, a 17-year old unarmed teenager who was on an errand run when the stories accounted a confrontation by the two. Zimmerman, now 29 was a neighborhood watch volunteer when he got into the confrontation. He ended up killing the teen and claimed "self defense".

Zimmerman is currently in hiding. Conservative agitators alike feel that the president, Attorney General Eric Holder and Rev. Perm should not have meddled in this affair.

There is one who is even going as far to help George Zimmerman get a firearm.

The Rally For Trayvon Protests were happened in major cities across the nation. Many Americans were not pleased over the verdict decided to vent off at federal plazas and police stations in many urban areas.

Today, the U.S. Justice Department is investigating how the Sanford Police botched up a simple case.

The involuntary manslaughter charge would have gotten him. Unfortunately the state prosecutors handed the second degree murder charge. A charge that required Zimmerman to know Martin if he was to kill him.

Still the impact has touched Hollywood and the hip-hop community.

The rapper and media mogul has express anger over the decision and the criticism he and his wife Beyonce faced this year when they went on vacation in Cuba.

Jay-Z's album Magna Carta.....Holy Grail is out and it was just certified platinum this month.

Jay-Z appears on Roc-A-Fella Records/Roc Nation, LLC.

Cleveland Police Arrest Serial Killer!

Michael Madison is a registered sex offender. The 35-year old man is accused of killing three women in the nearby suburb of East Cleveland. The Ohio Bureau of Investigation, Cleveland Police and the FBI are aiding East Cleveland Police in finding more bodies and possible breaks to missing persons cases.

It's Sunday, and I woke up to find out something going on that deserve some major attention.

What the hell is wrong with Cleveland, Ohio?

Michael Madison was arrested yesterday after East Cleveland Police aided by the Cleveland Police and FBI discovered the bodies of three women. They are in process of searching for others.

This incident will stir the bubble of conservatives and white extremists. These racial extremists already assume that "ALL BLACK MEN ARE CRIMINALS AND SEX CRAZED ANIMALS".

This incident will give conservative agitators another attempt to paint this incident in relation to Trayvon Martin by saying this individual could be one of "OBAMA'S SONS".

Just a few months back, we were watching the developments in the Cleveland kidnapping of Amanda Berry,Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight. Each woman were held captive in the home of Ariel Castro for over 10 years. The woman were rescued and are recovering from their injuries.

About four years ago, we were covering Anthony Sowell, a former military officer and factory worker abducted and killed 11 women. The woman he killed were prostitutes and some runaways. In a span of ten years, the man had hid their bodies in home. So far in the past five years, he's killed 11, and they're probably more.

Cuyahoga County keeps records of sexual offenders.

But I guess Sowell's motives inspired another one. Now as Sowell is preparing for the gas chamber inside the iron college, Michael Mason wanted to top that.

The victims of Anthony Sowell are listed. We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the those who were lost in the horrible tragedy.

• Crystal Dozier 38       c. May 2007
• Tishana Culver 31       c. June 2008
• Leshanda Long 25       c. August 2008
• Michelle Mason 45       c. October 2008
• Tonia Carmichael 53       c. December 2008
• Nancy Cobbs 43       c. April 2009
• Amelda Hunter 47       c. April 2009
• Telacia Fortson 31       c. June 2009
• Janice Webb 49       c. June 2009
• Kim Yvette Smith 44      c. July 2009
• Diane Turner 38       c. September 2009

Now again we send our condolences to those who were killed by this madman. We will get more details as soon as it becomes available.

The Plain Dealer and Associated Press report that three bodies have been found wrapped in plastic bags in a Cleveland suburb and police will continue a search for possibly more victims Sunday, East Cleveland Mayor Gary Norton said.

The bodies were found about 100 to 200 yards apart and a 35-year-old man was arrested and is a suspect in all three deaths, although he has not yet been charged, Norton said late Saturday.

The suspect is a registered sex offender and has served prison time, the mayor said. In police interviews, the man led them to believe he might have been influenced by convicted serial killer Anthony Sowell, Norton said in an interview with The Associated Press.

The victims of serial killer were discarded behind abandoned buildings.

"He said some things that led us to believe that in some way, shape, or form, Sowell might be an influence," the mayor said.

Sowell was found guilty in 2011 of killing 11 women and hiding their remains around his Cleveland home. He was sentenced to death and is in an Ohio prison.

Asked if the suspect has a fascination with the Sowell case, the mayor said: "We believe so."

Police Commander Mike Cardilli said a woman's body was found Friday in a garage and two other bodies were found Saturday -- one in a backyard and the other in the basement of a vacant house.

All three people are believed to have been killed in the last six to 10 days.

Police did not know the gender of the two bodies found Saturday and did not know the identities of any of the three victims. They were sent to the coroner's office.

Norton said the bodies were each in the fetal position, wrapped in several layers of trash bags. He said detectives continue to interview the suspect, who used his mother's address in Cleveland, the mayor said, in registering as a sex offender.

Cardilli said the man was arrested after a standoff with police Friday. Police did not immediately release the suspect's name. He was jailed in East Cleveland, the mayor said.

"The person in custody, some of the things he said to investigators made us go back today," the mayor said.

Police searched vacant houses over about three blocks in the neighborhood Saturday and planned to expand their search Sunday, Norton said.

The Plain Dealer reported that police, the FBI, the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's Department went through yards and abandoned houses and used dogs trained to find cadavers.

The neighborhood in East Cleveland, of some 17,000 residents, has many abandoned houses and authorities want to be thorough, the mayor said.

"Hopefully, we pray to God, this is it," he said.

Congresswoman Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio) represents that area. Hopefully on GOP Sundays, she will tell David Gregory about the issues in Black America. 

I mean honestly, this event takes Black men down two notches in a week of politically charged rhetoric about racial profiling.

The controversy continues on in Black America. We handled the Cleveland kidnapping and Anthony Sowell.

We will cover this controversy as well.

Eric Holder At The NAACP Convention And Sybrina Fulton At The Rally For Trayvon Protest!

Trayvon's death last spring caused me to sit down to have a conversation with my own 15-year-old son, like my dad did with me. This was a father-son tradition I hoped would not need to be handed down. The words of Attorney General Eric Holder at the NAACP Convention.

Some wise words were issued by the Attorney General of the United States. Eric Holder, goes to the NAACP annual conference to express his thoughts on the George Zimmerman trial.

He urges patience as the U.S. Justice Department looks into the Sanford Police and the statements by George Zimmerman. The FBI is also involved as well.

Today, national protests were held in American cities with Reverend Perm (Al Sharpton) and the family of Trayvon Martin speaking to the general public. They all demand that the incidents like the one that happened to the unarmed teen never happen again.

Attorney General Holder speaks to the NAACP.



Of course, WHITE EXTREMISTS can't stomach the cold hard truth about the nation's racial divide.

President Barack Obama and the attorney general can relate to the situation as Black men being profiled for being "natural born criminals".

This incident created a gun control debate. Sybrina Fulton and Al Shaprton at the Rally For Trayvon Protest.

I've been profiled by police. I've been followed in shopping malls by security. And I seen white women clutch on their purses when they've seen me.

President Barack Obama also missed another thing. White women clutch their shirts when they are in the presence of Black or Hispanic men. 

So as passionate as they are, the conservative agitators aren't. They always claim that the president, Rev. Perm, Cut His Nuts Off Jackson (Jesse Jackson) and Holder are [professional] race baiters.

Ask that asshole Todd Stern about race-baiting!

Still we need to discuss the issues of race, women and firearms.

How long will it take before we see another mass shooting?

How long will it take before another innocent young Black teen is gunned down by a man and he walks free?

How long will it take before we get it through our heads that conservatives are the reasons why our country is so screwed up?

They wanted to see Black people riot over a verdict.

They wanted to prove to the world that we're the animals they've painted us out to be whenever they go to their forums.

We can't allow our nation to be based on a narrative that makes us the enemy! We must fight them back.

And by fighting them back is at the ballot box.

Reject conservatism. Reject the race-baiting tactics of those in the conservative agitating media. Reject the Republicans and their allies in the conservative movement.

Sybrina Fulton at the Rally For Trayvon Protest.

Hannity: Jeremiah Wright Taught Obama How To Hate White People!

I refer to this person as That Guy Who Helped Obama Win.

The controversial conservative agitator known only as That Guy Who Helped Obama Win once again gets livid over the president. He is pissed that the president spoke on an issue that really matters to the Black community.

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win is gleefully putting on controversial figures to up his ratings. He's like an average carnival barker who has this radio program in the afternoon and television program on Loserville.

He is the go to guy for Republicans, conservative activists and people who have issues with race. The conservative agitator defends bigots, racists, idiots and criminals. If they're Republican or conservative, he'll be there front in center giving them a voice. Most of these individuals are so controversial, they are often not invited on television programs because they'll say some shocking statement.

That Guy is proud of his doings. He's ranked the second most listened and watched conservative agitator in the nation. He and King Hippo are often the most targeted by liberal agitators because they say so much ignorant things, it's amazing they still have a voice on radio.

The list of controversial individuals That Guy Who Helped Obama Win interviewed:

Karl Rove (Rolly Polly)
George Zimmerman
Michelle Malkin (Turd Flipper)
Sarah Palin (Palin Da Ass)
Dog The Bounty Hunter
Oliver North
Don Imus (Rusty Imus)
Juan Williams (Uncle Juan)
Malik Shabazz
Jesse Lee Peterson (Other Jesse)
Mark Fuhman
Jerry Falwell
Rush Limbaugh (King Hippo)
John Bolton
(Paula Deen)

He will likely interview Paula Deen in the coming weeks because of her controversy. She was fired from The Food Network after she and her brother said racial slurs about Black patrons.

Anyway, the Black community is highly upset over the George Zimmerman trail. They figured that since he was a WHITE MAN, Zimmerman got off with murder in the state of Florida. He shot and killed Trayvon Martin, an unarmed teenager who was on his way home. The case has sparked feverish discussion on race, class and the mistrust of law enforcement in the Black community.

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win as usual focuses on made up controversies to embarrass the president.

The Black community and police are friends of convenience. They're like distant cousins.

President Barack Obama had to speak on the issue because he too was a Black man who was profiled by police.

Some just can't stomach the ideas of the president speaking to the Black community. That Guy Who Helped Obama in particular is one that gets highly upset over it.

"Now the president's saying Trayvon could've been me 35 years ago," That Guy Who Helped Obama Win said on his radio show. "This is a particularly helpful comment. Is that the president admitting that I guess because what, he was part of the Choom Gang and he smoked pot and he did a little blow — I'm not sure how to interpret because we know that Trayvon had been smoking pot that night."

A man with the biggest case of Obama Derangement Syndrome continues to rile up his gullible audience with these bogus stories and ad hominem attacks. That Guy continues to create controversy where there is none.

The Huffington Post reports that as usual the conservative agitators were smoking out their ears when the president spoke on the issue of race in America.

One asshole named Todd Stern from Loserville called the president, "race-baiter-in-chief".

Hence the irony of that. Look in the mirror, you asshole!

That Guy Who Helped Obama Win continues his ongoing obsession with Jeremiah Wright, the former pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago.

The former pastor lit up the internet during the 2008 U.S. Presidential Election. The pastor went into a rant about how the United States for years have killed and destroyed lives in the name of "freedom".

That Guy wasted no time trashing the pastor and then Senator Barack Obama for the controversy.

He would often obsess over this. He couldn't help himself. Every time an issue of race comes forth, this foolish conservative agitator finds a way to bring up Jeremiah Wright every freaking time.

I am guessing since I missed most of his radio program, I had to figure he would somehow inject him in this.

Helen Thomas Passes Away!

President Barack Obama and Helen Thomas shared their birthday on August 4. In 2010 before her retirement, the president welcomes Helen with a birthday cupcake.

Before she was forced out after sharing her thoughts on the undisputed territory of Palestine, Helen Thomas was the one woman who always had knack to give presidents a reason to sweat. Her tough questions often merit controversy.

The one woman who held the front row of the White House press room, Helen Thomas has passed away.

She died at the age of 92, a few weeks shy of her birthday.

She was member of the White House Press Corps and opinion columnist.

She worked for the United Press and post-1958 successor United Press International (UPI) for 57 years, first as a correspondent, and later as White House bureau manager. She was a columnist for Hearst Newspapers from 2000 to 2010, writing on national affairs and the White House.

She covered every President of the United States from the last years of the Eisenhower administration until the second year of the Obama administration. She was the first female officer of the National Press Club, the first female member and president of the White House Correspondents' Association, and the first female member of the Gridiron Club.

She wrote six books; her latest, with co-author Craig Crawford, is Listen Up, Mr. President: Everything You Always Wanted Your President to Know and Do (2009). Thomas retired on June 7, 2010, following controversial comments she made about Israel, Israeli Jews and the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

CNN reports Thomas covered 10 presidents over nearly half a century, and became a legend in the industry.
She was a fixture at White House news conferences -- sitting front and center late in her career -- where she frequently exasperated government spokesmen with her pointed questions.

Thomas began covering the White House for United Press International when John F. Kennedy became president in 1961 and was a fixture there until her retirement in 2010.

She was a trailblazer and the considered the dean of the White House press corps because she was the longest-serving White House journalist.

Her career, however, came to an end under a cloud of controversy.

Thomas, then working for the media conglomerate Hearst as a syndicated columnist, was blasted for comments she made regarding Jewish people.

In 2010, a YouTube video surfaced showing her saying that Israel should "get the hell out of Palestine," and that the Jewish people should go home to "Poland, Germany ... and America and everywhere else."

Thomas apologized for her remarks, writing, "They do not reflect my heartfelt belief that peace will come to the Middle East only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance. May that day come soon."

She announced her retirement one week later.

In 2012, Palestinian official Hanan Ashrawi presented Thomas with an award.

Obama: Trayvon Could Of Have Been Me!

President Barack Obama speaks on the George Zimmerman trial. He elaborates on his life as a Black man being profiled in America. The unannounced press conference gave insight to how he and the rest of Black America feels.

Conservatives are upset because the president spoke on the George Zimmerman trial.

The conservative agitators are so angry that the president interfered in the situation, they've calling upon Republicans to find ways to impeach him. The president address the press corps about the situation. The president explains to the nation, that he too was profiled as a Black man.

The president goes straight to the point about the George Zimmerman trial.

He calls upon Florida to repeal that Stand Your Ground law and warns Republicans that they need to get things done. He's getting tired of not getting his appointments confirmed and legislation not passed.

Here's the transcript of the president's speech. Underlined parts will be clarified as significant.

I wanted to come out here, first of all, to tell you that Jay is prepared for all your questions and is very much looking forward to the session. The second thing is I want to let you know that over the next couple of weeks, there’s going to obviously be a whole range of issues -- immigration, economics, et cetera -- we'll try to arrange a fuller press conference to address your questions.

The reason I actually wanted to come out today is not to take questions, but to speak to an issue that obviously has gotten a lot of attention over the course of the last week -- the issue of the Trayvon Martin ruling. I gave a preliminary statement right after the ruling on Sunday. But watching the debate over the course of the last week, I thought it might be useful for me to expand on my thoughts a little bit.

First of all, I want to make sure that, once again, I send my thoughts and prayers, as well as Michelle’s, to the family of Trayvon Martin, and to remark on the incredible grace and dignity with which they've dealt with the entire situation. I can only imagine what they’re going through, and it’s remarkable how they've handled it.

The second thing I want to say is to reiterate what I said on Sunday, which is there’s going to be a lot of arguments about the legal issues in the case -- I'll let all the legal analysts and talking heads address those issues. The judge conducted the trial in a professional manner. The prosecution and the defense made their arguments. The juries were properly instructed that in a case such as this reasonable doubt was relevant, and they rendered a verdict. And once the jury has spoken, that's how our system works. But I did want to just talk a little bit about context and how people have responded to it and how people are feeling.

Slain teen Trayvon Martin stirred the national discussion on racial profiling.

You know, when Trayvon Martin was first shot I said that this could have been my son. Another way of saying that is Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago. And when you think about why, in the African American community at least, there’s a lot of pain around what happened here, I think it’s important to recognize that the African American community is looking at this issue through a set of experiences and a history that doesn't go away.

There are very few African American men in this country who haven't had the experience of being followed when they were shopping in a department store. That includes me. There are very few African American men who haven't had the experience of walking across the street and hearing the locks click on the doors of cars. That happens to me -- at least before I was a senator. There are very few African Americans who haven't had the experience of getting on an elevator and a woman clutching her purse nervously and holding her breath until she had a chance to get off. That happens often.

And I don't want to exaggerate this, but those sets of experiences inform how the African American community interprets what happened one night in Florida. And it’s inescapable for people to bring those experiences to bear. The African American community is also knowledgeable that there is a history of racial disparities in the application of our criminal laws -- everything from the death penalty to enforcement of our drug laws. And that ends up having an impact in terms of how people interpret the case.

Now, this isn't to say that the African American community is naïve about the fact that African American young men are disproportionately involved in the criminal justice system; that they’re disproportionately both victims and perpetrators of violence. It’s not to make excuses for that fact -- although black folks do interpret the reasons for that in a historical context. They understand that some of the violence that takes place in poor black neighborhoods around the country is born out of a very violent past in this country, and that the poverty and dysfunction that we see in those communities can be traced to a very difficult history.

Sybrina Fulton with her sons. Trayvon Martin is on the right.

And so the fact that sometimes that’s unacknowledged adds to the frustration. And the fact that a lot of African American boys are painted with a broad brush and the excuse is given, well, there are these statistics out there that show that African American boys are more violent -- using that as an excuse to then see sons treated differently causes pain.

I think the African American community is also not naïve in understanding that, statistically, somebody like Trayvon Martin was statistically more likely to be shot by a peer than he was by somebody else. So folks understand the challenges that exist for African American boys. But they get frustrated, I think, if they feel that there’s no context for it and that context is being denied. And that all contributes I think to a sense that if a white male teen was involved in the same kind of scenario, that, from top to bottom, both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different.

Now, the question for me at least, and I think for a lot of folks, is where do we take this? How do we learn some lessons from this and move in a positive direction? I think it’s understandable that there have been demonstrations and vigils and protests, and some of that stuff is just going to have to work its way through, as long as it remains nonviolent. If I see any violence, then I will remind folks that that dishonors what happened to Trayvon Martin and his family. But beyond protests or vigils, the question is, are there some concrete things that we might be able to do.

I know that Eric Holder is reviewing what happened down there, but I think it’s important for people to have some clear expectations here. Traditionally, these are issues of state and local government, the criminal code. And law enforcement is traditionally done at the state and local levels, not at the federal levels.

I'm wearing a hoodie like my son, Trayvon. Does it mean you're going to shoot me too! Tracy Martin and his family at a protest rally in New York City.

That doesn't mean, though, that as a nation we can’t do some things that I think would be productive. So let me just give a couple of specifics that I’m still bouncing around with my staff, so we’re not rolling out some five-point plan, but some areas where I think all of us could potentially focus.

Number one, precisely because law enforcement is often determined at the state and local level, I think it would be productive for the Justice Department, governors, mayors to work with law enforcement about training at the state and local levels in order to reduce the kind of mistrust in the system that sometimes currently exists.

When I was in Illinois, I passed racial profiling legislation, and it actually did just two simple things. One, it collected data on traffic stops and the race of the person who was stopped. But the other thing was it resourced us training police departments across the state on how to think about potential racial bias and ways to further professionalize what they were doing.

And initially, the police departments across the state were resistant, but actually they came to recognize that if it was done in a fair, straightforward way that it would allow them to do their jobs better and communities would have more confidence in them and, in turn, be more helpful in applying the law. And obviously, law enforcement has got a very tough job.

So that’s one area where I think there are a lot of resources and best practices that could be brought to bear if state and local governments are receptive. And I think a lot of them would be. And let's figure out are there ways for us to push out that kind of training.

Along the same lines, I think it would be useful for us to examine some state and local laws to see if it -- if they are designed in such a way that they may encourage the kinds of altercations and confrontations and tragedies that we saw in the Florida case, rather than diffuse potential altercations.

I know that there's been commentary about the fact that the "stand your ground" laws in Florida were not used as a defense in the case. On the other hand, if we're sending a message as a society in our communities that someone who is armed potentially has the right to use those firearms even if there's a way for them to exit from a situation, is that really going to be contributing to the kind of peace and security and order that we'd like to see?

And for those who resist that idea that we should think about something like these "stand your ground" laws, I'd just ask people to consider, if Trayvon Martin was of age and armed, could he have stood his ground on that sidewalk? And do we actually think that he would have been justified in shooting Mr. Zimmerman who had followed him in a car because he felt threatened? And if the answer to that question is at least ambiguous, then it seems to me that we might want to examine those kinds of laws.

Number three -- and this is a long-term project! We need to spend some time in thinking about how do we bolster and reinforce our African American boys. And this is something that Michelle and I talk a lot about. There are a lot of kids out there who need help who are getting a lot of negative reinforcement. And is there more that we can do to give them the sense that their country cares about them and values them and is willing to invest in them?

I'm not naïve about the prospects of some grand, new federal program. I'm not sure that that’s what we're talking about here. But I do recognize that as President, I've got some convening power, and there are a lot of good programs that are being done across the country on this front. And for us to be able to gather together business leaders and local elected officials and clergy and celebrities and athletes, and figure out how are we doing a better job helping young African American men feel that they're a full part of this society and that they've got pathways and avenues to succeed -- I think that would be a pretty good outcome from what was obviously a tragic situation. And we're going to spend some time working on that and thinking about that.

And then, finally, I think it's going to be important for all of us to do some soul-searching. There has been talk about should we convene a conversation on race. I haven't seen that be particularly productive when politicians try to organize conversations. They end up being stilted and politicized, and folks are locked into the positions they already have. On the other hand, in families and churches and workplaces, there's the possibility that people are a little bit more honest, and at least you ask yourself your own questions about, am I wringing as much bias out of myself as I can? Am I judging people as much as I can, based on not the color of their skin, but the content of their character? That would, I think, be an appropriate exercise in the wake of this tragedy.

And let me just leave you with a final thought that, as difficult and challenging as this whole episode has been for a lot of people, I don’t want us to lose sight that things are getting better. 

Each successive generation seems to be making progress in changing attitudes when it comes to race. It doesn't mean we’re in a post-racial society. It doesn't mean that racism is eliminated. But when I talk to Malia and Sasha, and I listen to their friends and I seem them interact, they’re better than we are -- they’re better than we were -- on these issues. And that’s true in every community that I've visited all across the country.

And so we have to be vigilant and we have to work on these issues. And those of us in authority should be doing everything we can to encourage the better angels of our nature, as opposed to using these episodes to heighten divisions. But we should also have confidence that kids these days, I think, have more sense than we did back then, and certainly more than our parents did or our grandparents did; and that along this long, difficult journey, we’re becoming a more perfect union -- not a perfect union, but a more perfect union.

Thank you, guys.

What are your thoughts on President Barack Obama address on the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman situation?

Charles Ramesy: I'M BROKE BRO!

Charles Ramsey. The Cleveland, Ohio man who saved three women from a rapist sets the record straight about his situation.

Cleveland hero who rescued three women from 10 years of hell in Ariel Castro's home is telling the junk food media that he's lost his job because of the overnight celebrity status.

He's broke and he's trying to keep his spirits up.

HEY NOT SO FAST! HE CLAIMS HE'S FINE! CHARLES RAMSEY TELLING THE WORLD, HE'S GOOD! HE DOESN'T KNOW WHY THE MEDIA IS TARNISHING HIM!

Charles Ramsey, the country's most animated and yes unlikely hero spoke to the press about his good deeds in the long run. They didn't expect in the two months since his name landed in the junk food media, he was experiencing economic woes.

I mean every business in the Cleveland area is willing to give him all the heart clogging food and beverages the moment he comes in. He doesn't want food, he wants something good to happen to him and those victims.

Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight.

Why not help him build a home far away from that nightmare that he, Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight suffered that late May evening?

Well apparently The Daily Mail interviewed him during the bail hearing of Castro. They wanted to know how his life had changed since the events unfolded.

Ariel Castro the man charged in rape of women.

I guess how when they've interviewed Ramsey, the often times vocal celebrity told it like it is and the reporter wrote it down. Well to make the world feel sorry for him, I guess they've jazzed up the story and made it seem like he's struggling to get by.

I am guessing The Daily Mail is sticking to the story.

But to Charles Ramsey, "IT'S BULLSHIT!"

Ramsey is saying that he had to find another place to go because the internet sensation follows him right to his door. And he's was getting fed up with it. He did admit he doesn't have the luxuries of being an international celebrity but he's happy and he wants to live his life in peace.

Ramsey did have thoughts of trademarking his name and animated vocals.

Ariel Castro is facing 977 charges including kidnapping, rape, felonious assault and premature death. He could face the death penalty if he's convicted. He abuse Michelle Knight and forced a miscarriage on her child. Castro has fathered a child with Amanda Berry.


Wish Charles Ramsey, Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight well and hope the best as they cope with their ordeal. Hopeful they'll succeed in getting their lives back together.

Tom Joyner Slams Rush Limbaugh For Rachel Jeantel And Trayvon Martin Comments!

Tom Joyner pledges funds for a Trayvon Martin scholarship and aid to Rachel Jeantel. The young woman who played a role in the George Zimmerman trial was criticized by the conservative junk food media for her "Black" attitude on CNN's Piers Morgan.

Longtime Black talker and activist, Tom Joyner has express outrage at the decision in Sanford, Florida.

He and many others including myself see that justice was scoffed by the systematic rush to judgement by jurors who only see the victim as another worthless life in hoodie. The shooter, George Zimmerman walks free and the nation's racial divide gotten even bigger.

Tom Joyner announced that he's planning on getting a Trayvon Martin memorial scholarship and he's planning on helping conservative whipping girl, Rachel Jeantel go to college. Jeantel, the key witness in the George Zimmerman trial was heavily criticized by the conservative junk food media for being "big fat angry Black woman who had no business being on the stand!"

Joyner also has some choice words for Rush Limbaugh (King Hippo). The conservative talker uttered NIGGA on his radio program this week and it drew a huge controversy. Also the fact that he attack Jeantel sparked another round of criticism post Sandra Fluke.

Also Rachel Jeantel also had words for Rush Limbaugh.

She appears on HuffPost Live with Dr. Marc Lamont Hill. He asks her if Rush Limbaugh's use of NIGGA and the constant attacks on her irritate her. She replied, "Well, yes, but I can’t judge him!"

After spending over two days attacking her personally and slut-shaming her, Limbaugh is out on a weekend furlough while Mark Steyn fills in.

Before Tom Joyner headed over to CNN for the Piers Morgan interview, he got in touch with Rachel Jeantel and her attorney who were in Florida doing post trial interviews.



A great deed was done in the face of controversial decision by an ALL WHITE JURY. Yeah there was a White Hispanic woman on the jury pool, but she thought like every WHITE WOMAN on that jury.

She believed that despite being told to not follow, George Zimmerman had the right to kill Trayvon Martin in the act of "self defense".

This verdict has prompted Black leaders and liberal agitators to protest Florida's Stand Your Ground law.

Conservative agitator is feuding with Rachel Jeantel after appearance on CNN's Piers Morgan.

This prompt a nationwide boycott of Florida, Rush Limbaugh, and George Zimmerman.

There will be a nationwide march on Saturday to protest unfair justice given towards Marissa Alexander, the woman who was sentenced 20 in the iron college for firing a gun in her ceiling. She was denied the claims of self-defense by the state prosecutors.

Joyner and Al Sharpton (Rev. Perm) will be actively encouraging Attorney General Eric Holder to look into the Zimmerman trial.

As of today, the U.S. Justice Department has ordered the Sanford Police and Seminole County Courts to hold all evidence. The firearm used in the shooting is not going back to Zimmerman just yet. The FBI is looking into the negligence of police in handling the matter. The FBI is looking to poke holes into the Zimmerman story.

Again, Zimmerman can't be prosecuted for the same crime. What the Justice Department can get him on is a civil rights violation. It's hard to prove but if there's any evidence of a cover up and disputes in the story, he'l be right back in court yet again to face the judge.

George Zimmerman and his wife Shellie are also facing perjury charges for lying to the court about bail money. So that will go underway soon.

One Year Later, We Remember Aurora!

The faces of victims in the horrible shooting at an Aurora movie theater.

Update: Two survivors are planning on getting married on the day of the American shooting to show that the madman who shot them can't stop their love and they thank those who kept them in their prayers.

Kristin Davis and Eugene Han will marry on the day after the shooting rampage.

Of course we here at Journal de la Reyna wish Mr. and Mrs. Han well wishes on their journey. They deserve happiness in the face of a horrible tragedy.

On Friday July 20, 2012, a madman went into a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. The premiere of DC Comics The Dark Knight Rises was the highly anticipated Summer blockbuster.

The movie was going to generate nearly $1 billion in sales revenue. That Thursday was the night that hundreds of fans would camp out at their local movie theaters to see the premiere.

They had lines of people and tickets for midnight showings were sold out.

That Century 16 in Aurora was the scene of the one of the worst mass shootings in American history.

James Holmes, a young man suffering from chronic schizophrenia and constant rejection plotted and proceeded to carry out an attack on innocent movie goers.

As he entered the movie theater, he wasn't detected by movie ushers. He managed to get into one of the mass showing theaters. Holmes in a nonchalant fashion threw tear gas into the stands and then opened fire upon movie goers. The movie goers thought it was a joke and didn't know it was the real thing until the screaming started.

In this shooting, Holmes managed to kill 14 people and injure over 70 people. Holmes would later try to evade police capture. But it took a few eyes to spot the man as he was preparing to leave the state.

James Holmes the Aurora movie shooter.

Holmes was arrested. He confessed to the crime and also told the police that he booby trapped his home with massive explosives. The jurisdictions of Denver, Aurora and Glendale along with the ATF had to use weapons specialists to disarm all the traps he laid out.

If the traps weren't detected, many others would have died in a massive explosion.

That day I was off and I woke up to seeing ongoing news coverage of this tragedy. I thought to myself that the rise of RIGHT WING EXTREMISM continues in the age of President Barack Obama.

Holmes was charged with capital murder. His trial will begin soon. But it's often delayed because of the tendencies of delusional behavior by Holmes. The therapist who saw Holmes is under fire. Under the HIPPA law she wasn't able to discuss his problems. Despite even a valid threat he would of been if it was carried out, his therapist allowed it to happen.

The name of the victims are to be remembers tomorrow in Aurora.

Jonathan Blunk, age 24 Alexander J. Boik, age 18 Jesse Childress, age 29 Gordon Cowden, age 51 Jessica Ghawi, age 24 John Larimer, age 27

Matt McQuinn, age 27 Micayla Medek, age 23 Veronica Moser-Sullivan, age 6 Alex Sullivan, age 27 Alexander C. Teves, age 24 Rebecca Wingo, age 32

The families of the victims are pleading to Congress to get gun control back on the table.

I knew that since the Tucson shooting, the president didn't act on this. He pushed it aside because he feared the National Rifle Association and the Republicans would push this issue to the White extremists and doom his chances at reelection.

President Barack Obama hugs victims of Aurora shooting in 2012.

President Barack Obama and then Republican nominee perennial candidate Mitt Romney had expressed sorrow and outrage about the situation.

Both offered condolences and sympathy to the families of the victims. They've promise that justice will be done if there were ways to stop gun violence. They're promise to do something was broken.

This tragedy didn't get the ball running on gun control. It was taking a back burner because both presidential candidates were fearful of the NRA. And to make this clear, both wanted to play political posturing during this event.

The left blamed Republicans for lacking the balls to find solutions to reasonable gun control. The right blame Democrats for trying to push legislation that doesn't solve problems, it warrants more firearms on the street.

Eugene Han and Kristin Davis survived the mass shooting in Aurora, Colorado. They plan on getting married this weekend. They join many others in sharing thoughts and prayers to those lost in the Aurora shooting massacre.

Almost six months later, another mass shooting lead by a mentally insane person took the lives of 26 in third worst school shooting in American history.

Earlier this year, the Republicans in the U.S. Senate and a few Democrats blocked the passage of a watered down gun control bill sponsored by two conservative senators.

Senator Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia) and Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pennsylvania) both tried a bipartisan bill in which it could have stopped unregistered firearms from ending up in the hands of the next mass murder.

That was blocked by the likes of Senators Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Jim Inhofe (R-Oklahoma), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), Lindsay Graham (R-South Carolina), Rob Portman (R-Ohio), Max Baucus (D-Montana), Mark Pryor (D-Arkansas) and Heidi Heitkamp (D-North Dakota).

Of course if it would have passed, the Republican controlled House of Representatives would have killed the bill and it will be likely a continuous thing for the do-nothing Congress.

Unfortunately this gun control issue will continue to fell on deaf ears. These members of Congress

These morons have allowed more firearm tragedies to occur. Even in the April 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and Christopher Dorner situation, these Republicans and Democrats spit on the grave of all the victims in gun violence.

Too many people lost their lives in these senseless tragedies and this inept Congress is not budging a muscle.

Let's remind them.

INSTEAD OF CALLING IT RIGHT WING EXTREMISM, HOW ABOUT CALLING IT WHITE TERRORISM?

THIS IS AN ISSUE! IT'S INSPIRED BY THE ANGRY RHETORIC OF TALK RADIO, CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS IN THE US POPULATION IN WHICH BLACKS AND HISPANICS ARE GROWING. 

THIS IS INSPIRED BY ISSUES LIKE LEGISLATION THAT ROLL BACK FIREARMS. 

THE PRESIDENT'S REELECTION ALSO ENRAGED MANY WHITE TERRORISTS ONLINE AND IN THE GENERAL PUBLIC!

THE CONSERVATIVE AGITATORS LIKE RUSH LIMBAUGH, MATT DRUDGE, MICHAEL SAVAGE, SEAN HANNITY, ALEX JONES, BILL O'REILLY AND GLENN BECK ENABLE THIS NONSENSE BY ACTIVELY DRIVING WEDGE ISSUES INTO THE SPOTLIGHT.

THE CULTURE WAR DEBATE OVER ENTITLEMENTS HAVE GIVEN CREDENCE TO EXTREMISTS WHO FOCUS THEIR HATRED OF THOSE THEY DEEM INFERIOR TO THEIR STANDINGS!

IN THEIR MENTALLY DISTURBED MINDS, THE WORLD IS COLLAPSING AND THEY'RE PREPARING FOR THE GREAT "RACE WAR"!

WHITE CONSERVATIVE MALES SEE BLACKS AS CRIMINALS, SINGLE MOTHERS/SINGLE WOMEN/INDEPENDENT WOMEN AS SLUTS, HISPANICS AS ILLEGALS, AND ASIANS AS PILLAGERS OF AMERICAN JOBS!

WHITE CONSERVATIVE MALES ARE OBSESSED WITH FIREARMS, POLITICS, BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE FOR THE COUNTRY'S WOES AND PROBABLY CARRY TENDENCIES TO CHEAT ON THEIR LOVERS (NOTE: SOME CONSERVATIVES ARE BLACK, HISPANIC, ASIAN AND/OR GAY)!

IF WE CAN GET RID OF OURSELVES OF REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS AND EVERY LOCALITY MAYBE THINGS COULD GET DONE!

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA NEEDS YOUR HELP TO GET THINGS DONE!

IF YOU SUPPORT HIM, HELP HIM GET THINGS DONE!

VOTE FOR TRAYVON MARTIN!

VOTE FOR SANDY HOOK!

VOTE FOR AURORA!

VOTE FOR GABRIELLE GIFFORDS!

AND YES, WE NEED A SERIOUS TALK ON RACE, GUNS, AND WOMEN!

"Hiccup Girl" Gets 15 In The Iron College!

Jennifer Mee, age 21 take a plea deal in the death of Shannon Griffin. Mee became an internet sensation after it was revealed that she had an uncontrollable hiccup issue. 

While we were focused on the George Zimmerman trial, another person in the news was handed her fate.

Jennifer Mee, the former internet celebrity who had a notorious case of the hiccups is going to the iron college for her role in a botched robbery that killed a man she met on the social networks.

In 2007, then a 15-year old girl, Mee was having an uncontrollable case of hiccups. Somehow her family couldn't figure out how to solve this issue and used every home remedy in the book. When they've visited the doctor and the issue even stomped the doctor.

So Mee took her problems to the internet and it became viral. As she appeared on the social networks, she attracted international attention. During that rise, she was introduced to the world as the "Hiccup Girl".

Her most famous appearance was on NBC's Today show in which she embraced a hug from country star Keith Urban.

After six months of therapy and treatments, her hiccups tone down. So she was cured of the constant hiccups.

Jennifer Mee known as the "Hiccup Girl" is taking fault for a botched robbery. She will be sentenced to the iron college soon.

Now after a few years out of the limelight, the young woman became a product of her environment.

When she gotten around 17 years old, she became more enticed towards the "gangsta lifestyle of hip-hop."

There were stories about Mee being a runaway and having issues with her family. She would runaway and end up with her then boyfriend Lamont Newton, a known dope boy.

When she was was bored, she would often put some raunchy and provocative pictures on the social networks. She would soon attract the attention of the victim, Shannon Griffin.

Shannon Griffin, a young man new to the St. Petersburg area was working at a local job. He came from the disaster of Hurricane Katrina to live with family in Florida. I guess how this jumped off with Mee was the meeting at his job. They contacted each other by social networks and by phone.

Well apparently Mee enticed Griffin to meet her in a rough neighborhood. I guess this was a going to be a set up because when Griffin met her near an abandon home, two men jumped him and tried to rob him of his stuff.

Shannon Griffin, the victim of a fatal shooting. The woman Jennifer Mee set him up.

Griffin put up a fight and tried to fight for his life. It would end up getting him killed. One of the men shot him and left him for dead. As they let the young man die, the family figured that his safety was concern.

Well since the family knew that Griffin was on a "date" with Mee, they knew something wasn't right with her.

As Griffin's death hit the local news, the family knew that it had to been because of Mee.

So the police came to the home of Mee and arrested her. They would later arrest her boyfriend Newton and Laron Raiford.

These three were charged with first degree murder. Each of them would face life in prison if they're convicted. The Florida prosecutors wanted to really put them in the gas chamber (death row).

Pinellas County Lockup pictures of Lamont Newton, Jennifer Mee and Laron Raiford.

Mee, pleas to the court that it wasn't her that pulled the trigger, it was the other guy. The judge didn't buy that excuse. Even though Mee didn't shoot the young man, her actions rendered the event that lead to the murder.

So after a few years of being in the Pinellas County Lockup, the young woman and her attorneys copped a plea.

In May, Jennifer Mee took the opportunity to not face a jury, by admitting that she played a role in the murder and she will be sentence to 15 years in the iron college for her role. Her sentencing is coming by the near of her birthday in late July.

Newton and Raiford were offered plea deals but I am guessing one of them rejected it.

Now at age 21, she will spend a portion of her life thinking about how her love for a "thug" doomed her chances at a real life. Setting up an innocent man who just wanted to be there for her.

You would have thought that she could use all that internet celebrity to help others who suffer with medical disorders.

Nah, she just wanted to be the pretty little chick that wanted to be a "gangsta boo!"

Anyways, I hope the best for the family of Shannon Griffin.

I would also hope that Mee would turn her life around after this experience. She can't experience the joys of freedom.

The freedom to have a relationship.

The freedom to have a family.

The freedom to see her family move forward with their lives.

The freedom to at least apologize to the family of Shannon Griffin.

Her television appearances show no remorse for the actions that rendered her situation.

Her days and nights for the next 15 years could be long and cold. She'll be sentenced to the Lowell Correctional Facility in Ocala.

And soon the civil lawsuit that going to be issued by the family of Shannon Griffin. They will take the rest of their lives in valued properties.

The young woman and her two male friends will now understand that all lives are valued. They're alive to see the pain they've brought upon Griffin's family. They're alive to do whatever they please while in the iron college.

When Mee gets out (likely in her late 30s or early 40s), she'll be back in the real world knowing that the junk food media will always know her as the "Hiccup Girl" who killed a man.
