The soul of New Orleans Cajun cuisine passed away Thursday.
The Cajun King has passed away today according to CNN.
Louisiana Chef Paul Prudhomme, credited with helping popularize Cajun and Creole cuisine, died Thursday, according to K-Paul's, the New Orleans restaurant he owned.
Prudhomme, who was 75, died in New Orleans after a brief illness, the restaurant said.
"Paul was the one who not only put Louisiana food, our food, Cajun and Creole food, on the map, but he was also the one who started the American food revolution that flourishes today," Poppy Tooker, host of the "Louisiana Eats!" radio show, told CNN.
His 1975 appointment as executive chef at the upscale New Orleans restaurant Commander's Palace helped break the assumption that a fine-dining restaurant had to have a French chef, Tooker said.
His upbringing as one of 13 children born to Louisiana sharecroppers also helped shape an approach to cooking that favored fresh, local ingredients and grew into the wildly popular farm-to-table movement of recent years, Tooker said.
Prudhomme was one of the nation's first celebrity chefs, and his restaurants attracted huge crowds and widespread acclaim. He hosted several cooking shows and authored nine cookbooks, some of them bestsellers.
His recipe for blackened redfish, first served at K-Paul's, became so popular state fisheries officials had to impose limits to save the species from overfishing, Tooker said. He also created and marketed a successful line of seasonings sold in groceries nationwide.
New Orleans Times-Picayune food editor Judy Walker called Prudhomme a "legend" who "changed New Orleans food forever."
Commander's Palace, the well-regarded New Orleans restaurant where Prudhomme was executive chef before opening K-Paul's in 1979, tweeted that its staff was saddened by the news.
"He was well loved," the restaurant said.
Paul Prudhomme made New Orleans cuisine so freaking good. World News Today send our condolences to the family of Paul Prudhomme.
The Million Man March turns 20. The Nation of Islam's Honorable Louis Farrakhan and many speakers appear at the National Mall to discuss the issues facing Black America.
The Million Man March returns to Washington. This will celebrate 20 years since the first march upon the National Mall.
Justice or Else: The 20th Anniversary of the Million Man March: Justice or Else, sometimes abridged as Justice or Else or stylized as Justice or Else!, is a movement and a march in Washington D.C. that is part of the Black Lives Matter activist movement. Louis Farrakhan announced his "Justice or Else" event commemorates the 20th anniversary of the October 16, 1995 Million Man March.
Minister Louis Farrakhan will headline the event. It will outline a lot of things. One in particular is the Black male inside out. I managed to hear the speech and I strongly agree with the premise of the minister.
One thing that caught me was the instructions. His instructions are basically keep fighting for justice and ignore the noise. The noise (i.e. that annoying conservative agitator, David Clarke, Jr., O'Loofus and that network) will take his speech out of context and make it seem like he's calling for the death of White America. He doesn't call for any death of human beings. He said that arrogant America will be condemned by God. He said that the rich will continue to push the poor into fighting one another.
He said that Black men should keep BITCH out of their mouths.
He said that Black men should learn that killing one another doesn't bring strength. It brings weakness and it's a plan.
He slammed former Ferguson officer Darren Wilson for being a part of the system of corrupt lawmen who take joy in the pain and sorrow of Black America.
I wish I would have went tot the March. I would love to find my place in the world.
Over 50 women came forward. Cosby still denies sexually assault them.
So over 50 women accused the entertainer of sexual misconduct.
There was an explosive interview on Dateline. There were over 27 women who sat with Kate Snow to tell the nation that Dr. William H. Cosby, Jr. is a nasty pervert.
Bill Cosby, the famous comedian and America's day seen his legacy collapse before his eyes.
The guy who told Black men to pull his pants up is caught with his pants down. And now he's facing an embarrassing moment in which all the women who idolized him now scorning him.
He would groom actresses and model at his private home. He would engage in conversation with the women and give them a drink. The drink would have a funny taste in it. After eight hours, you're in his bedroom with no clothes and a satisfied comedian.
When you threaten to tell the law on him, he would cut a $$$$$$$$ check.
I mean he's worth $430 million. From his sitcoms, movies, animations, books, endorsements, and comedy albums, he made millions.
A defamation lawsuit brought against Bill Cosby by three women who say he sexually abused them decades ago can move forward, a federal judge in Massachusetts ruled Friday, delivering a legal blow to the comedian as he attempts to defend himself against accusations of sexual assault by dozens of women.
Over a two dozen women went to NBC to share their horrific experience with America's dad.
The women claim in their lawsuit that Cosby's representatives damaged their reputations by denying their allegations in sometimes disparaging language. Cosby's lawyers had asked the judge to dismiss their suit, arguing that the remarks were personal opinions protected by the First Amendment and legal declarations made in his defense.
But in his ruling Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Mark Mastroianni rejected Cosby's bid to dismiss the case before it ever goes to a jury.
The women — Tamara Green, Therese Serignese and Linda Traitz — have accused Cosby of drugging them and then having unwanted sexual contact with them.
The comments they claim were defamatory range from statements dismissing their accusations as "ridiculous claims" and "absurd fabrication" to longer remarks that sought to discredit the accusers.
Keisha Knight-Pulliam can't defend Bill no more. She sits with celebrity agitator Wendy Williams to discuss the accusations.
"As the old saying goes, 'consider the source," ended one statement that touched on Traitz's criminal and prison record.
In his ruling, Mastroianni rejects Cosby's argument that the statements were legal declarations made in self-defense.
"The court recognizes that some jurisdictions do apply a version of the conditional self-defense privilege, which allows individuals, in certain circumstances, to publish defamatory responsive statements necessary to defend their reputation. However ... such a privilege does not permit a defendant to knowingly publish false statements of fact," the judge wrote in his 38-page ruling.
Malcolm Jamal-Warner said he can't defend Bill.
Telephone messages left for four attorneys who represent Cosby in the Massachusetts lawsuit were not immediately returned. Cosby has a house in Shelburne Falls, in western Massachusetts.
"As we'd expected and hoped, the judge rejected every one of Mr. Cosby's attempts to throw the case out of court and allowed the case to proceed," said Joseph Cammarata, an attorney who represents the three women.
"We will take Mr. Cosby's deposition at the earliest possible moment. My clients look forward to moving the case forward and to restoring their good names and reputations."
"Dateline NBC" aired a special Friday night in which 29 Cosby accusers were interviewed together about their allegations. Cosby has never been charged with a crime and he has denied the allegations.
Cosby was deposed Friday in a Los Angeles case against him. Lawyer Gloria Allred, the defendant's lawyer in that case, said she would speak on the deposition Saturday in Boston. A third lawsuit in also pending in Los Angeles.
Court documents unsealed in July show Cosby admitting in 2005 to carrying on extramarital relationships with several women, including some who accuse him of sexual assault. The testimony added to the unsavory details that have all but wrecked his nice-guy reputation as TV's Dr. Cliff Huxtable and made a mockery of his preaching about decency and personal responsibility.
Raven-Symoné is a certified nut job. She says that if she wouldn't hire any Black sounding names. Yet, her name is!
The View co-host is a very eccentric woman. The entertainer gave up the squeaky clean Cosby, Disney kid image and came out a raging lesbian and celebrity agitator. She's a kush rolling, Marlboro Light smoking, multi-hair dying, nutjob who fell off the wagon.
Since the Cheetah Girls broke up, Raven went wild. She had a secret pregnancy. She got involved with bisexual model/actress AzMarie Livingston and running her mouth like she's a genius of Black culture.
Raven-Symoné Pearlman joined The View in Spring 2015 along with Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Bahar, ABC's Paula Faris, comedian Michelle Collins, actress/activist Candace Cameron-Bure (of Full House fame).
The ladies debate the latest "HOT TOPICS" and often get a controversial theme going.
Today on Friday's episode of The View, Raven-Symoné does something that's not so Raven.
She pops off about the know-hows to an earning a career. She claims that having "Black names" won't get you hired.
On a segment titled "Are You Judged By Your Name?" the former Cheetah Girl, donning a fire engine-red mohawk, said she wouldn't hire anyone with a "black" sounding name.
“Can we take back 'racist' and say 'discriminatory,' because I think thats a better word," she said while laughing. "And I’m very discriminatory against the words like the ones they were saying in those names. I’m not going to hire you if your name is Watermelondrea. That’s just not going to happen. I’m not going to hire you.”
Cue the irony.....What's her name?
I bet you money, that if she wasn't a somewhat successful entertainer, I bet you she wouldn't get a job because she has a "BLACK" sounding name.
I miss them days when she played a "bubblehead" on television and not one in real life.
Getting upset over the president is becoming routine for conservatives.
There was a mass shooting at Northern Arizona University. Three injured and one died after a fight happened outside the campus.
World News Today send our condolences to Colin Brough, the victim who was gunned down by this callous terrorist. There was a fight inside the dorm and it led to a shooting.
Steven Jones is an 18 year old freshman who the law apprehended today. The terrorist is being held in lockup on capital.
Northern Arizona University is located in Flagstaff.
While another mass shooting happened today, one week ago a terrorist mass murdered nine innocent lives at Umpqua Community College. These lives were taken callously by a man who felt the world wasn't in his favor.
He felt that being rejected by society triggered his mass murder spree.
He had legal right to obtain firearms. Now the family of the victims are expecting a visit from President Barack Obama. When he heads to Roseberg, Oregon, he'll be met with protesters as well.
These protesters are upset that the president "politicized" a tragedy. They rather see the president head back to Washington. Wondering who gave them this idea that the president "politicize" tragedies?
Well it's no surprise that network that devotes its entire shows to trashing Obama had a hand in it.
When the president told the junk food media the American public became numb to mass shootings and the time to politicize this is now, the conservatives went bonkers over it.
Now again, the conservatives believe that the president will take their guns.
On The O'Loofus Factor. Bill-O hosted this asshole on his program. This asshole from some Roseberg conservative publication was telling the president to go away.
David Jaques, publisher of the Roseburg Beacon said, "Obama not welcome here to 'Stand on the Corpses of Our Loved Ones.'"
This asshole claims that the president's remarks were inappropriate and disrespectful.
Assholes blame Obama for the Umpqua shooting. This biggest asshole on cable news brings on a conservative activist to bemoan the president's visit to Roseberg.
So talking about mass shootings being a daily occurrence is inappropriate. It's disrespectful for the president to come to a town to console grieving families. It's not in the best interest to pass a universal background check law.
God damn the Republicans and their conservative agitating allies are stupid.
Gun sales often go through the roof when mass shootings happen. Almost immediately when a mass shooting becomes a national story in which President Barack Obama speaks on it, the NRA and the tiny balls spread the gospel of a federal gun grab.
Pathetic politics and misplaced outrage. Another reason to why Republicans and conservatives are fucking up the country.
Majority Leader, Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC) are accused of having an affair. This shocking news may have caused McCarthy to withdraw his bid to replace House Weeper Rep. John Boehner (R-OH).
Did the insurgents set Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) up?
The Majority Leader withdrew his bid to become the next House Speaker. This shocking news has the nation talking. A shoe-in choice for the Speakership abruptly ends his bid to be one of the most powerful leaders in Washington.
McCarthy was confident when he went up to Capitol Hill yesterday. Now he's clammed up for some reason. A conservative activist may have pulled the curtain away.
The Freedom Caucus are causing total chaos. Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Raul Labrador (R-ID), Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), and Rep. Joe Barton (R-TX).
This focused on the Majority Leader's personal life.
There's rumors going around about the Majority Leader being caught up in an affair.
Some are accusing the Majority Leader of having an affair with Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-NC).
This may have been one of the reasons to why McCarthy ended his bid to be the Speaker of the House. A Chicago GOP donor may have sparked the rumor. Steve Baer sent the email with the subject line: "Kevin, why not resign like Bob Livingston?"
Erick Erickson of RedState went to the AM dials to push the rumor.
He said that Ellmer's snarky endorsement of Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT), almost sounding like a "spurn girlfriend".
"He has not spoken to me personally for my vote, and Jason Chaffetz has, so that’s where I am right now. At this point I will be casting a vote for Jason Chaffetz," said Ellmers, who is facing a GOP primary challenger.
"I can’t vote for someone who doesn’t ask for my vote. I’m apparently not high on his priority list," she added.
There's rumors that McCarthy and Ellmers may resign from Congress. That's coming from the banned Twitter twat Charles C. Johnson. The two deny the affair and thoughts of resigning. However, they've sure as hell run away from the cameras.
Now Weeper John Boehner (R-OH) postponed his walk of shame. The Republicans will go back to hammer out their issues before a floor vote is given.
The Republicans are in such disarray.
Some are calling for that pompous jackass Newt Gingrich to muscle his way back into Congress.
Many in the establishment hate Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) and Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL). They will not support them for bid. The establishment is begging Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) to jump in. Ryan was famous for being the vice presidential nominee for perennial loser Mitt Romney.
Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is rethinking the House Speaker bid. The insurgents will likely try to derail his bid.
The sausage factory founded by insurgents, Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA), Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), and Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) vow to derail Ryan. They refuse to support candidates who are too close to Boehner. They believe Ryan is a failed candidate.
Again, I want to make this clear. What you doing in your house isn't my business! But if you're trying to pass laws that gets into my business: You're going to be exposed.
I don't give two fucks what goes on in Kevin McCarthy and Renee Ellmers's personal lives. They can have an affair. They're human. Love is powerful. We can't stop emotional feelings.
Nonetheless, these lawmakers are so fucking ridiculous. These are the lawmakers who scorn upon single parent households, people in need of state and federal assistance, and gay couples wanting to get married.
These are the people who believe the path to safety in this country is basically take away the freedoms from Blacks, Hispanics, immigrants and practicing Muslims.
These are the people who are pro-life when it comes to abortions but pro-death when it comes to guns and the death penalty. It's ridiculous.
Congress is extremely inept.
Republicans are going to hand the Congress back to Democrats.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) is dropping his bid to be House Speaker and giving up his role as Majority Leader.
I don't think he's resigning from Congress, but he certainly not going to be the House Speaker.
In a secret ballot committee vote, Republicans select who's going to be their choice for the speaker.
Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) figured he didn't have enough support from fellow Republicans to become the new House Speaker. He formally withdrawn from the nomination. He also will end his bid as Majority Leader.
A big blow to outgoing House Speaker, Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) who resigns at the end of the month. Boehner complains that the members of his own party are too extreme.
The members say that he "caves" to President Barack Obama.
The insurgency and establishment are displaying a full scale civil war within the Republican Party.
McCarthy cites conservative uproar over his Benghazi comments as a reason for him dropping out.
Last week, McCarthy gave Hillary Clinton a bone and she's ran with it. McCarthy appeared on that annoying conservative agitator's program to show and prove. He promised that Republicans will get tough on Obama. He said that Clinton's missing server and her struggling in the polls were a result of Republicans pushing this through the election.
He said that the committees spearheaded by Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) made Hillary Clinton struggle in her presidential campaign. That launched a Democratic platform demanding the Republicans end the partisan debate over Benghazi.
Now Republicans are seething at McCarthy for giving the Democrats an opportunity to prove they're inept.
Rep. Jason Cheffettz (R-UT) and Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL) have promised to usurp McCarthy if he won the nomination. I guess they got what they wanted.
Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) isn't keen on either of them. He said they all are inept. He refuses to endorse Chaffettz and Webster.
Jordan is mad at Chaffettz for stripping Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) from a committee seat.
Many Republicans see Webster as inept if he becomes a House Speaker.
Rupert Murdoch jumps onto social media to say that he longs for a real Black president. The media mogul racially insults President Barack Obama, the country's first Black president.
Barack Obama had froze out that network and its parent company NewsCorp during his 2008 presidential campaign. He cited the network's ongoing and relentless attacks on him and his family.
Obama is currently the president. Matter of fact, he is the 44th President of the United States. He is the first African American to ever become the president. He is biracial. He identifies himself as Black. He is married to Michelle (nee Robinson) and has two daughters Malia and Sasha.
He was born August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii. He spend most of his life in Chicago, Illinois.
Obama became a U.S. Senator in 2005 and served three years in the Senate before he declared his intention to run for president. He face a bitter primary against then U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton.
Obama would defeat Clinton and former U.S, Senator John Edwards before becoming the nominee.
President Obama been with Michelle most of his life. Murdoch has went through three bad marriages. Who's a real man?
He would appoint then U.S. Senator Joe Biden to be his running mate and they would face Republican Arizona senator John McCain and his running mate Sarah Palin, then governor of Alaska.
Obama would beat McCain in a landslide victory.
During the 2008 run, that network ran every trick out the book. The network would loop Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, Muslim, socialist, spread the wealth, pigs with lipstick, proud of my country, bitter clingers, no experience, community organizer, being too Black (or too White) everyday on that network.
Obama blamed that annoying conservative agitator for being one of the driving forces to why he refuses to give interviews with the network. That network deliberately lies about Obama's policies and panders to a segment of society that many judge as extremists in their own right.
Obama had a private sit down with the president of the network and then CEO of NewsCorporation.
Obama was really angry with the way the network covered his campaign. He warned the network that if he becomes president, the network would shut out indefinitely.
In 2012, the network continued its relentless attacks on the president. The president had called out the network and its agitators by name.
The network was hoping perennial loser Mitt Romney would win. Didn't happen. Obama would beat the perennial loser in a landslide.
To this day, I haven't seen the president do an one-on-one interview with that network much.
Republican candidate Ben Carson with wife Candy.
The White House confirms that President Barack Obama will treat the network like Republican politician. Obama warned Democratic politicians and candidates about being on that network. They have to be on their A-game if they are challenged by the agitators. Democrats who appear on that network better be prepared to challenge every talking point.
The network was founded in 1996 by the Australian-born billionaire Rupert Murdoch. He launched the network in response to MSNBC and CNN's so-called liberal bent.
Murdoch appointed Roger Ailes as the president of the network. Ailes was a Republican political hitman and former agitator on cable news.
The media mogul goes to social media to show praise for Ben Carson.
Ben and Candy Carson terrific. What about a real black President who can properly address the racial divide? And much else.
Carson who is currently in second place after Donald Trump has seen his stock rise. In the wake of numerous controversies, Republicans are still supporting this guy. Carson is a Black Republican who gained fame by insulting Obama at the National Prayer's Breakfast in 2013.
Carson was once a commentator on that network along with Rick Santorum, Mike Huckabee, Carly Fiorina and numerous others.
Murdoch is a controversial figure in the media world. Many cite him as the reason to why the media sucks. They look at him as a slime. Murdoch tries to meddle into politics. He and top ranks over at News Corp send memos urging whisper campaigns against politicos who they fear may interrupt the conservative movement.
His tabloids overseas were caught a real scandal. They were caught wiretapping British politicians and celebrities. Some American celebrities living overseas were concerned that Murdoch's lackeys hacked into their phones and shared private photos.
Murdoch has went through three disastrous marriages. He's worth an estimated 354 billion.
The good guy with a gun argument was thrown out the window when a woman took a theft situation into her own hands.
Auburn Hills, Michigan police are determining whether a woman may face charges for intervening in a shoplifting at a Detroit-area Home Depot. She observed the loss prevention detective try to stop two shoplifters from exiting the store. She has a concealed carry license.
When the shoplifter and his getaway driver got into their vehicle, the woman pulled out her piece and shot at the tires. The shoplifters weren't armed and they didn't hurt anyone in their theft of products.
They took off with over $1,000 worth of power tools. They're still at large.
Gun training experts say that if you're not in immediate danger, its recommended that you don't use a firearm in the public. The purpose of being a concealed carry holder is to be concealed until it's proven that a threat has occurred and the need to use a firearm is necessary.
Woman using a conceal carry purse.
“It’s my worst nightmare as a [concealed pistol license] instructor,” Doreen Hankins told the Detroit Free Press. “You have to know the entire situation before you pull that handgun out. And I don’t see that a shoplifter at Home Depot fills any of those criteria.”
Hankins and other firearms instructors told the newspaper that concealed weapon license holders should only pull their guns if someone is in imminent danger of death or serious injury, including a sexual assault. Those who draw their pieces too quickly and frivolously fire at people can face serious felony charges, from the reckless use of a firearm to assault.
All three instructors agreed the woman had overreacted.
“In that situation personally, there’s no way I would be shooting my gun,” Dawn Martin, another instructor, told the Free Press.
“None of it makes sense,” Hankins said. “Even if it were law enforcement, they wouldn’t do that.”
“You are not a police officer,” she added, referring to concealed gun license holders. “You are not a person out there protecting the public at large.”
Yet, that is how Americans increasingly see things.
Since the 2012 Newtown, Conn., massacre of 26 people, including 20 school children, the percentage of Americans who think gun ownership could “protect people from becoming victims of crime” has gone up by nine points, according to a 2014 Pew Research Poll.
Many in law enforcement recommend that you don't intervene in a theft situation.
The shoplifters could have been armed.
A spokesman for the Auburn Hills Police Department told The Post that police had met with prosecutors on Wednesday to discuss the issue, but had not yet announced a decision.
Even some Second Amendment enthusiasts conceded that the woman had made concealed-carry permit holders look bad, although they argued she was an exception that should be dealt with as such.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) threatens to usurp Rep. Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) coronation.
When you thought Republicans were done with their bitching, here comes the latest outrage from conservatives. House Majority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) may become the nominee. Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) is resigning from Congress at the end of the month. He will also give up his role as the House Speaker. McCarthy thought it was a shoe in. I guess not.
But there's still a feud within the ranks. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) and Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL) are plotting an usurping of power. The Republican insurgents are feuding with one another.
Chaffetz represents Utah's 3rd Congressional District. His district includes the city of Provo, Orem, and the rugged deserts of Utah. It's one of the Republicans Party's strongest congressional districts. The Cook Partisan Voting Index gives it +25.
Rep. Daniel Webster (R-FL)
Webster represents Florida's 10th Congressional District. His district includes south of Orlando, Walt Disney World Resort, Winter Garden, Lakeland, The Villages, Leeberg, and Lake Alfred. The Cook Partisan Voting Index gives it +10.
Republicans are still fighting over leadership roles. They are fighting over how to work with President Barack Obama and how to make the fool the public into believing that the Benghazi hearings aren't political theater.
Didn't think this was hard! - Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA, Majority Leader)
The insurgents have declared that Webster maybe their choice for House Speaker. But will they actually vote for the guy or continue to destroy the party within?
Now this Freedom Caucus is spearheaded by a lawmaker from my community. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) represents Ohio's 4th Congressional District. His district includes northern portions of Springfield, eastern portions of Lorain, northern portions of Elyria, Urbana, Lima, Sidney, Norwalk, Tiffin, Bellefontaine, and Marysville. The Cook Partisan Voting Index gives it R+9.
Jordan is an extremist in his own right. He often picked fights with Boehner. He and Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) were responsible for the coup against Boehner. His Freedom Caucus has 40 members of the Republican insurgency.
He is the most vocal of the insurgency. He declares that each of them suck and he won't endorse any of them.
Ben Carson creates another controversy. He says that the Umpqua College victims should have taken down the active shooter. He also blames President Barack Obama for "politicizing" tragedies.
When a mass shooter aiming at you, what do you do?
Do you even have the fraction of the second to bum rush an active shooter?
Do you believe that we should arm professors, daycare workers, and teachers?
In the latest debate over gun control, the concern trolls are running on this notion that if you're armed, you can take out the threat. They believe that more guns are the solution. The "good guy" with a gun can stop the "bad guy" with a gun.
All this concern troll nonsense. So far there's been over 15 mass shootings since Sandy Hook. There's been no real serious debate over gun control. Each time the president mentions a tragedy, the agitators in the media politicize the debate and try to quarrel the noise. When the noise dies down, then we have another mass shooting. And we'll be back to debating it again.
President Barack Obama is right. We are numb to mass shootings. We often ignore this because we've gotten used to hearing about mass shootings.
Ben Carson who is running second of Donald Trump is an example of "armchair generals" who believes that he rather be a dead hero than a living coward.
Carson went to that network and told those morons on the couch.
"I would not just stand there and let him shoot me," Carson said on that network. "I would say, 'Hey, guys, everybody attack him. He may shoot me, but he can’t get us all.'"
Carson believes that the victims just let the terrorist shoot them. He said that many lives could have been saved if someone would have ran up on an active shooter.
I thought he ordered them on the ground. He ordered some of the victims up and asked them their religion. When they did, he shot them. He told them they'll "soon be with God".
Army veteran Chris Mintz did fight back. He held the door. When he held the door, the terrorist shot through it and hit him over seven times. He barely survived.
Carson also slammed President Barack Obama for heading to Roseberg, Oregon. He believes that the president is "politicizes" the tragedy and the people don't want him there.
"When do we get to the point where we have people who actually want to solve our problems rather than just politicize everything?" Carson said. "I think that’s what the American people are so sick and tired of."
Carson also went on Facebook on Monday night and said the Oregon shooting hadn't changed his position against increased restrictions on gun ownership, because he "never saw a body with bullet holes that was more devastating than taking the right to arm ourselves away."
Carson believe the president picks and chooses what tragedies to politicize. According to the conservatives, the president didn't call Kate Steinle's family. Kate was gunned down by an illegal immigrant who had low tier felonies before this murder.
Again, you don't know what you would do if an active shooter comes into a building. Many would try to hide and avoid being noticed. The active shooter doesn't care who you are. As long as you're in the vicinity of the shooter, you're likely going to be hit.
Conservatives think that gun free zones are the reasons for the Umpqua Community College tragedy.
Oregon is an open carry state. You can carry concealed weapons inside buildings. This terrorist had legal right to obtain firearms. He had no criminal history. He managed to kill nine innocent lives. The law told the junk food media that he didn't die in a hail of lead, but a self-inflicted shot to the head. The terrorist spared a man's life by handing him a package with a flash drive. The flash drive is in the hands of the feds. They are trying to seek the motive. They said the terrorist was a student and that was his class. The mother allowed this terrorist access to firearms. The terrorist had mental issues.
No matter.
As long as someone can bum rush a mass shooter, you can stop him.
So in the words of Ben Carson and many other concern trolls, "I am going to put my big pants on and try to have a street named after me when I'm dead!"
Business marketing executive got a cannon fire after he racially insults his co-worker's child.
A man got fired out the cannon for unprofessional behavior. Although, the company denies this was over the controversy, he knew his time was up. I'm going to explain that RacistsGetFired had a hand in this.
Some dork took a selfie with the son of a co-worker. As soon as he posted it on....Guess!
It went viral. It was sweep with racial insults towards the boy. Some were referring the boy to being a "feral animal" inside a civilized environment. Other remarks were "Kunta Kente", "Toby" and "Niglet".
Sydney Jade the mother of the 3-year old boy Cayden got the last laugh. Black Twitter created the hashtag #HisNameIsCayden and it went viral.
This is Cayden Jace! The love of my life, the apple in my eye, my EVERYTHING. All this lovely personality wrapped up...
Posted by Sydney Jade on Saturday, October 3, 2015
Gerod Roth (aka Geris Hilton) was the guy who took the selfie with Cayden.
Roth posted the image on Facebook last month, and the comments quickly showed the Internet at its absolute worst. Roth's friends posted racist jokes and hateful commentary, including references to slavery.
"He was feral," Roth wrote in what appears to be his only comment.
Dork got fired out the cannon after he made a snarky comment about a coworker's son. It went viral.
Roth told Fox 5 Atlanta that the "feral" comment referred to kids running around the building and that he actually told one person not to make racist remarks.
"I just really feel upset, not only with myself, but also the character that was based off the comments that my friends had made," Roth told the station. "Cayden has been victimized but I have been targeted."
A black friend who added #BlackLivesMatter to the image also said Roth is not racist.
"My Dawg isnt Racist, he just made a bad joke & im sure when he is given the outlet to speak about his regret, he will," wrote Skylar Felton on Facebook.
Roth said he has apologized to Jade by email. He was also fired from his job at Polaris Marketing Group last week, although the company said it was for unrelated reasons, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
"It breaks my heart that Sydney and her adorable son Cayden were subjected to such hateful, ignorant and despicable behavior," company president Michael Da Graca Pinto wrote on Facebook. "Cayden visits my office almost every afternoon after daycare, he's sat at my dinner table and I consider him a part of the PMG family."
Sydney Jade and her lovely son Cayden.
But if the hatred and bullying posts reveal the Internet at its worst, the response also shows the online community at its best. Jade told the Atlanta Black Star about the unexpected level of support she's found.
"I never in a million years expected it to be this massive,” Jade told the website. “If it has to start with us, I’m going to finish it. It was my son put in the limelight. And not only my son but a child, a 3-year-old, someone who can’t defend himself."
Instead of the image linked to the hate-filled rants, Jade wants people to see another side of her son and posted a set of photos that show "all this lovely personality wrapped up into one small person's body."
The Root and Huffington Post reports that Roth apologized to Sydney and Cayden.
World News Today wish Sydney and Cayden well on their journey.
