The BET Awards.....Sigh! 😕



Well, did you watch the BET Awards?

I didn't but there were some newsworthy situations happening at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Well congratulations to the winners and the performers.

Beyonce, Kendrick Lamar, Bruno Mars, Lecrae, Chance The Rapper, Solange Knowles and The Migos took home a BET Award.

A controversial surprise win for Remy Ma.









Remy Ma who is feuding with Nicki Minaj took the Best Female Hip-Hop Artist. She also beat Young M.A. and Cardi B.

Meek Mill and Safareee have a clash of words and fists.

The entertainers were amazed by DJ Khaled and his adorable son. Gucci Mane don a suit in honor of the baby.

Future and Chris Brown release a single on the day of the awards.

Kendrick Lamar beats Future, Drake, and Fat Joe for Best Male Hip-Hop Artist.



Bruno Mars pays tributes to all the celebrities of Black culture when he got his award for the Best Male R&B performer.

Beyonce got the most awards. I don't know if she appeared or not. I didn't watch it. She gave birth to her twins with her husband Sean Carter, aka Jay-Z.

The Migos got into a heated interview with Complex Magazine contributor and rapper Joe Budden and later Chris Brown.

Lil' Kim is under investigation for jacking a female of her properties.

And all of this is what BET brought to your television, your blogs and the discussion table.

At first, I was going to call it a "straight coon's picnic."






But I have to give it up to Leslie Jones, Chance The Rapper and Yara Shahidi of Black-ish made the show at least watchable.

I am done covering this. I am not a fan of award shows and this one....sigh!

Oh, Goody! I Get To Pick A Judge!

Oh goody, goddy! I get to pick another judge! Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy is expected to retire. Donald Trump quickly got Neil Gorsuch appointed quickly.

Donald J. Trump may get a legitimate pick to the Supreme Court. There's rumors that Anthony Kennedy, the conservative justice who often breaks ties with the 4-4 is about to retire.

The announcement of retirement is picking up steam. The Court could swing decision in the wrong direction if Trump picks another "stone age" justice.

Kennedy, the third appointed Supreme Court justice under Ronald Reagan served the court since 1988, during an election year. Barack Obama was pissed he didn't get his third justice on the court.

Barack Obama was denied a third justice when Republicans obstructed the nomination of Merrick Garland.

Trump came in and quickly picked Neil Gorsuch to replace the spot vacated by Antonin Scalia, the justice who died in 2016.

In 2016, an election year, Mitch McConnell said the decision to pick a justice should wait until a new president comes in.

They were expected to hold off picks if Hillary Clinton had won the election. Now that Trump won, they're willing to give him anything he wants.

The Senate now made the picks for the Supreme Court a simple majority. Gorsuch managed to get through 54 votes with 52 Republicans in favor along with Democrats Heidi Heitkamp and Joe Manchin aiding his way through.

The Court is ran by John Roberts, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He was then a replacement for Sandra Day O'Conner but was quickly bumped when William Rehnquist died in 2005.

Current members.

John Roberts was appointed by George W. Bush in 2005. Chief Justice.
Sonia Sotomayor was appointed by Barack Obama in 2009.
Samuel Alito was appointed by George W. Bush in 2006.
Ruth Bider Ginsburg was appointed by Bill Clinton in 1993.
Steven Breyer was appointed by Bill Clinton in 1995.
Clarence Thomas was appointed by George H.W. Bush in 1991.
Anthony Kennedy was appointed by Ronald Reagan in 1998.
Elena Kagan was appointed by Barack Obama in 2010.
Neil Gorsuch was appointed by Donald Trump in 2017.

Trump is by far the most polarizing leader in the world. He has caused such impact that affects everyone's lives. He's deeply unpopular. However, Trump has 75% of chance of winning reelection in 2020.

Democrats are pretty much fucked. They are deeply unpopular as well. The Democrats have to purge themselves of leaders like Nancy Pelosi, Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Steny Hoyer. They need firebrands who speak like Trump, act like Ted Cruz, and stall like Rand Paul. The Democrats need to start fighting dirty. Do what the Republicans do!

The Republicans can get what they want now that the "nuclear option" is active now. Republicans obstructed Obama throughout his eight years. It proved successful.

Democrats are obstructing Trump and it's backfiring.

They're weak and feckless. They have no plan and no real agenda.

Now they'll lose the Court forever. Republicans can now appoint "stone age" judges to the Court.

BREAKING: SCOTUS Allows The Travel Ban For A Limited Time!

They will hear Trump's Muslim ban. Top row l-r: Sonia Sotomayor, Samuel Alito, Elena Kagan and Neil Gorsuch. Bottom row l-r: Ruth Bider Ginsberg, Anthony Kennedy, John Roberts, Clarence Thomas and Steven Breyer.
This is an embarrassment of freedoms. The freedom to travel, the freedom to practice in religion and the freedom to contest unlawful searches and seizures will be heard in the Supreme Court.

 WE HAVE TERRORISM HERE IN THE UNITED STATES. IT'S NOT BY A FOREIGN NATIONAL. IT'S BY AMERICANS. GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES. 

 AMERICAN LAWMAKERS ARE TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THAT GUN VIOLENCE HAPPENS EVERY FUCKING DAY. 

 AT LEAST 19 PEOPLE DIE A HOUR BY FIREARMS. THE MOST VULNERABLE ARE CHILDREN, BLACK MEN AND TEENS, AND ABUSED WOMEN. 

 HEROIN IS KILLING AMERICA. WE HAVE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE DYING A DAY BECAUSE OF OPIOID ABUSE.

 POLICE BRUTALITY IS STATE SPONSORED TERRORISM. 

 AMERICANS WHO WEAR THE BADGE KILL UNARMED INDIVIDUALS. THEY EXERCISE THEIR ABUSE BY SAYING THAT THEY FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES AND JURIES OF OUR OWN PEERS OFTEN ALLOW COPS TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER.

 WE HAVE BRUTAL KILLING HERE IN THE UNITED STATES BY OUR OWN MEN AND WOMEN. 

 YOU NOTICE THIS BAN DOESN'T INCLUDE NORTH KOREA, SAUDI ARABIA, CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC, QATAR, PAKISTAN AND RUSSIA.

 BANS ARE STUPID. WE ARE THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY! OR AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT AMERICAN PROPAGANDA TELLS YOU!

The Supreme Court allowed the Muslim ban to take effect but for at least 90 days. It was the water-down version of the order. It will go into effect shortly.

The Court will hear the case in October.

The decision allows Trump to have his travel ban go into effect. However, it stops short of a full ban.

"Foreign nationals who have a credible claim of bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States." That means if  the individuals from seven Muslim majority nations must have a legitimate reasons to enter the United States. So if they're here to study, marry or even get a job, they are free to travel. However the Trump ban could deny regardless of what the Court says.

This decision will create more tension with the Muslim world.

Donald J. Trump signed executive orders making the travel ban active. It was challenged in three courts and the lower courts ruled against Trump.

Trump fast tracked the ruling to the Supreme Court.

The restrictions do not affect students coming to learn, entertainers to perform, lecturers to teach or inspire and formal relationships with individuals from these countries.

When Trump is promising that he will be a "law and order" type of guy, he's dog whistling. When said that he wants to secure the border, be on the side of cops and make this country a Christian nation, he's really telling the American people.

Trump is telling Americans to stop Black and Brown from destroying White.

Morning Joe Dropped A Diss On Donald Trump And Softball Hannity!

Rocking News. Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are performing on tour. They also fire back at Donald J. Trump and Sean "Softball" Hannity,. 

I didn't know a former Republican congressman turned cable news agitator became a musician as well.

It's reported that he released an EP album.

The album is entitled Mystified and it's available on Spotify.

2dY7gI6phwoSYmOcErHEoT

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are the hosts of Morning Joe. It's an AM agitation show that features the two, Willie Geist and numerous others debating the latest topics in Washington, DC, New York and Hollywood.

The show is very popular with Americans and it's starting to pick up steam.

It was confirmed by Joe and Mika, the two were a couple and are planning on getting married soon.

All the while, Joe has been tourning the nation with his indie rock band called Scarborough.

The agitator released his EP over the weekend and it's a pretty decent album. It took a couple of digs at their "friend" Donald J. Trump.

He had performed and even brought Mika onstage to do a duet with him.

The news is great for the two.

However, there's one person in the junk food media still being a pain in everyone's neck. The most annoying conservative agitator in the junk food media is a notorious name-dropping, Obama-obsessed, Trump ass-kissing, Republican who claims he values the principles of conservatism.

He's not a conservative. He's a 55-year old man-child just like his idol, Donald J. Trump.
Sean "Softball" Hannity is feuding with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.
Sean "Softball" Hannity is the official softball of the Donald J. Trump organization. According to Jon Stewart, he's pretty "lumpy."

Softball Hannity has been poking at the hornet's nest for sometime. He's jealous his ratings are starting to tank and he's trying to blame MSNBC for the political discourse that lead to the shooting of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA).

Fox News is experiencing some turmoils since the ouster of the late pervert Roger Ailes.

Ailes along with Bill Shine, Judy Slater, Bob Beckel, and the number one agitator in cable news, Bill O"Reilly saw cannon fire after allegations of sexual harassment and racially charged rhetoric spawned around Fox.

With Greta Van Sustern, Megyn Kelly and O'Reilly gone, the softball is the only one left in the mainstream primetime. Tucker Carlson is still pulling in ratings, but he's coming in second to Rachel Maddow. Chris Hayes is pulling ahead of CNN and is close to Fox News in the key demo. The Five is still a ratings grab but it's too sappy. Jesse Watters is moving closer to the cannon if the ratings flop.

The softball still has strong viewership, but creeping into that territory is Lawrence O'Donnell.

O'Donnell signed for another four years. Andy Lack was facing backlash for trying to pull The Last Word because he wanted that disgraced Brian Williams in that spot.

O'Donnell and activists pressured MSNBC to keep him, Joy Reid and Al Sharpton. Critics slam the network for hiring Megyn Kelly, Greta Van Susteren, George Will, Nicole Wallace and Hugh Hewitt to the lineup. Most of them were former Fox News hosts and commentators who have conservative/white extremist views.

With the exception of Van Sustern, most of them are anti-Trump.

The softball has called MSNBC, the "tin-foil hat" network because the primetime hosts are pushing the controversial allegations of Trump officials getting help from Russia.

The softball faced backlash after he tried to tie murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich to Wikileaks. He was roundly debunked but still kept on going and it forced a boycott on his show.

The softball retaliated by calling a boycott on Maddow and Scarborough.

Scarborough called the softball out for being the favorite of Trump and the Russian Federation president Vladimir Putin.

The softball said that Joe and Mika need therapy.

Well I guess music tames the savage beast.

Why don't Sean "Softball" Hannity play the drums?

Maybe he should be a called a drum.  He certainly has the head for it. Someone should bang on his head. He's full of noise. He certainly can give someone a headache!

Safaree: Meek Mill Still Trying To Fit In Them Big Boy Shoes!

Reality television star and singer Safaree was jumped by Meek Mill's crew. The rapper denies the altercation but all signs point to him because the two used to date Nicki Minaj.
Every year, BET hosts their award show. And it never shies from controversy. The BET Awards are on tonight. I won't watch it. I don't care about it. If anything newsworthy comes up, I'll post it on World News Today. Nonetheless, this is a part of the controversies that plague the BET Awards.

America's favorite punching bag is accused of jumping his old girl's old man!

This video that circulated online featured two former flames of pop star Nicki Minaj. The female emcee and entertainer had dated both R&B singer Safaree and Philly MC, Meek Mill.

Somehow the two crossed paths and Safaree almost got a helping of "knuckle style chili."

The allegations that Meek Mill's crew jumped Safaree quickly became internet memes.
Meek know nothing!
Celebrity agitator DJ Self, greeted the entertainer before an unknown man came out of nowhere and served him up.

Meek Mill denies the altercation and says that's not his fault that "dude got served."

Meek Mill was spotted by TMZ in Beverly Hills. He was asked about the incident. "Who?," said the rapper. "Ain't no beef," he later added. "I don't know how they got us confused with that type of stuff."

Safaree Samuels has some choice words for the rapper.




"I understand your place of desperation and wanting acknowledgement from me," he said. "One day, we can hug it out and we can shake hands, and we can be friends. Until then, you'll just have to watch me rise from where you are. I feel that is what is hurting some of these people's hearts."

The two were supposed to appear at DJ Khaled's pre-BET party and the altercation happened.

So far, what's your thoughts on this?

Juvenile or real grown folk business!

What Happened To Genevive Dawes?

A mother was killed by cops. She was pregnant with her third child and had two daughters. Now those two daughters are without a mother and the family wants the officer who shot Genevive Dawes convicted of her murder.

Even a young woman loses her life to a police shooting. A 21-year old Dallas mom was killed after the law was trying to apprehand her boyfriend. The whole encounter got out of hand and the law fired at a car hitting this young woman who was  five months pregnant. The Dallas County prosecutor said the body camera footage doesn't match up to the story of two officers being attacked by a fleeing suspect.

This happened in January. According to Daryl Washington, the attorney representing Genevieve Dawes, the cops used excessive force.

Genevieve Dawes was with her boyfriend Virgilio Rosales in sleeping in a car when the law arrive to issue an no-knock. Officers Chris Hess and Jason Kimpel were the officers who gave commands for the two to exit the vehicle. They claimed that the car backed up and tried to hit them. They fired into the vehicle striking Genevieve and Virigilo. A total of 14 shots. Four of them went into Genevieve killing her. Two into Virgilio, injuring him.

Rosales is the father of two of Genevieve children.
Genevive's boyfriend is the father of two of her children. He was arrested for resisting arrest and unlawful carry in previous encounters.
The officer who shot Genevive Dawes is facing a court date.

Hess was charged with aggravated assault and murder. These charges could put him the iron college for LIFE. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

I am hoping that there could be a conviction. But given most of these high profile shootings, I expect a cop walk. The cop will have the backing off the police union, the attorneys representing him and a public already assuming the victim caused her own death.

The cop will try to get the venue changed because the nation is talking about the case. He will get a few supporters from the so-called "Blue Lives Matter" group. He will play the tired excuse, "he feared for his life" and call into question the victim's past history with social media, drugs and the law.

The all white jury will see the encounter and still let the cop walk because either they didn't see any wrong or they couldn't conclude it was wrong in the first place.
Genevive's family wants answers to why the officer fired 14 shots into her.
Police are shooting unarmed people and are getting away with it.

Donald J. Trump, Republicans and Democrats are not getting it. We are seeing the pot boiling and it's going to explode. It's hot and very real. The nation is more radicalized by this leader and the actions of Congress. Conservatives and progressives are more vicious towards one another and it's starting to get dangerous. Adding the police shootings into the mix isn't making it better.

For every bad cop, there will be a dead cop, period. The bad cops put more pressure on the good cops. They embarrass a police department by slipping up. The bad cops mention events of a case on social media and public venues. The bad cops often display political or pro-activism videos, buttons, wristbands, magazines and blogs. They automatically assume the person shot was meant to met their fate based on past history or an unflattering image posted on social media.

Expect more mass shootings.

Expect more cops shooting people of color and getting off using the "fear for their lives" excuse. Expect more white juries believing the side of cops.

The Supreme Court allows cops to "stretch the truth" when it comes to using deadly force, entrapment, unlawful search and seizure and issuing traffic citations.

Expect the junk food media to exploit the victim's history with social media.

Expect the junk food media to exploit the victim's encounters police regardless of it being minor offenses to non violent felonies (i.e. drug abuse or theft).

If "all lives matter," why can't we all be on the same page when a father, mother, brother or sister is killed by the cops for no fucking reason?

When these condescending assholes say there's no Black fathers in the home, I often refer to the cops killing that father making it a reality.

Seattle PD Release Video Of Charleena Lyles Shooting!

Charleena Lyles shooting encounter was released.

A mother with mental health issues was shot at home in front her children by the Seattle Police Department. She called them and this is the price she gets.

I'm quite annoyed with the latest round of police shootings. Most of these officers do this in front of children.

And then they hold classes to teach Black children how to respond to them.

I don't think so!

When will police officers be held accountable?

For every bad cop, there will be a dead cop, period. The bad cops put more pressure on the good cops. They embarrass a police department by slipping up. The bad cops mention events of a case on social media and public venues. The bad cops often display political or pro-activism videos, buttons, wristbands, magazines and blogs. They automatically assume the person shot was meant to meet their fate based on past history or an unflattering image posted on social media.

The video obtained by The Daily Mail shows two officers responding to a burglary call at a location the officers were familiar with.

They were on camera saying that the person was talking crazy things and were told that the woman, Charleena Lyles may have mental issues.

In the video, they are in the apartment hallway. They knock on the door and Charleena answers the door.

It was cordial for a brief moment until in the video your hear an officer say "drop it" before shots were fired.

In the video, you hear children in the background.

The officers involved are in the freezer pending an investigation whether the use of deadly force was justified.

As with all high profile police shootings, I am starting to believe these cops will walk. Even if they are indicted on criminal charges, an all White jury will see the evidence and still justify the shooting or come to a disagreement on whether the charges were strong enough.

And we wait for the next one. And the next one. Then a mass shooting. And then the usual blame game. Then back to normal life until the next event.
Answers. Why did the police use deadly force when they knew she was in the system for mental issues?

I'm pissed. It's getting hot! Really hot.

Donald J. Trump, Republicans and Democrats are not getting it. People are mad. The United States is extremely radicalized by the actions of Trump and his supporters. Conservatives and progressives are more vicious towards one another. The latest round of police shootings aren't making things better.

Expect more mass shootings.

Expect more cops shooting people of color and getting off using the "fear for their lives" excuse. Expect more white juries believing the side of cops.

The Supreme Court allows cops to "stretch the truth" when it comes to using deadly force, entrapment, unlawful search and seizure, issuing traffic citations and use of force.

Expect the junk food media to exploit the victim's history with social media.

Expect the junk food media to exploit the victim's encounters police regardless of it being minor offenses to non violent felonies (i.e. drug abuse or theft).

If "all lives matter," why can't we all be on the same page when a father, mother, brother or sister is killed by the cops for no fucking reason?

When these condescending assholes say there's no Black fathers in the home, I often refer to the cops killing that father making it a reality.

White Extremist Revved Through Trump Protesters!

San Francisco protesters were disrupted by a motorcyclist who wanted to rev through the "die in" against Trumpcare.

When will Sean "Softball" Hannity talk about the violence caused by Trump supporters?

Remember that "lumpy" softball laughed when Donald J. Trump was reading off Sen. Lindsey Graham's (R-SC) phone number. Graham got death threats and had to actually change his phone number.

The official softball of Donald J. Trump has been actively beyotching about how these progressive agitators are making it dangerous for politicians. Never seen the softball call out Trump for saying he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue in New York and people will support him.

Well in San Francisco, a 39 year old bodybuilder and porn business executive is being charged with reckless driving. His name is Jeff Dillon and he will be arraigned in San Francisco city court.

Dillon is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

He revved his motorcycle and drove through a crowd of protesters who were against the American Health Care Act (aka Trumpcare).
Meathead bodybuilder and porn actor tries to run through a protest rally against Trump.
According to The Daily Mail, he is a hardcore Trump supporter and has ties to white extremism. He belonged to a Facebook group called, White Privilege Club.

He dubbed himself, "the Dillionaire" and is the owner of Gamelink, a virtual online porn website.

He says he ain't a racist. He is married to an Asian woman.

Mind you White men, women, Asian men and women are racist towards Blacks.

He peeled through a "die in" near a federal courthouse, city hall and his business. He didn't hurt anyone but it was frightening. He was apprehended and booked into lookup before he was released.

Yeah, I heard Johnny Depp was in the news. He was in the United Kingdom and say some offensive things about Trump.

Depp caused an uproar about the leader. He said jokingly it would be interesting an actor assassinate a president. The conservatives were outraged over that.

Depp apologized for the comments.

Mind you, Trump said that he wants to eliminate "political correctness" from the dialogue. I guess it only applies to conservatives. Because they get worked up over them progressives not being politically correct.

DeMario Jackson: The Bachelor Is Trash!

DeMario Jackson and Corrine Olympios caused controversy on the set of The Bachelor in Paradise. 
I don't watch reality television. I find no interest in it. I don't care about the phenomenon.

DeMario Jackson is a true example of reality television. He is a playboy in a resort town with many beautiful women. He and a former contestant both have a drink and a dive. And now the two were was caught in a sex scandal this month.

Jackson who was a contestant on Bachelor in Paradise on ABC was accused of sexually assaulting Corinne Olympios. The two were caught by producers engaging in sexual activity after filming in Mexico.

Many claimed that Jackson took advantage of Olympios while she was drunk.

Olympios went to the press to denounce Jackson and said she didn't consent to sex with him.

The show halted and the cast was sent back to the States. Turns out the two had conflicting statements. Warner Bros. and ABC-Disney Domestic Television determined that no misconduct occured.

Filming resumed. But DeMario isn't coming back. He's pissed that this whole ordeal ruined his reputation and he's threatening a lawsuit against the networks and Olympios.

He cites racism as one of the biggest reasons for him. He felt that Olympios was literally trying to dodge allegations of cheating on her boyfriend by making up an excuse that she was drunk and didn't know she was having sex.

Will Gaskins who was on the same season of The Bachelorette said some not so kind words about the show and the showrunners.

"It wasn't until THE BLACK MAN got into the mix that this was deemed as no longer acceptable," Gaskin said on his social media posting.

Jackson took himself off social media and is seeking medical help for trauma. He said that he didn't do anything wrong and the label of being a "rapist" will haunt him throughout his life.

Martin Singer, a private attorney and investigator hired by Olympios said that assault happened and there will be more information given soon.

RAPE IS RAPE.

 THERE IS NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT IT.

 THIS ISN'T A RIGHT OF PASSAGE!

 IT'S A CRIME!

ALSO LYING ABOUT BEING RAPED HURTS ACTUAL VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT!

 PEOPLE WHO MAKE UP CLAIMS OF BEING RAPED OFTEN PLACE INDIVIDUALS IN A POSITION OF GUILT BY MEDIA. IF THE FACTS DETERMINE THE PERSON DIDN'T RAPE THE VICTIM, THEN IT HURTS EVERYONE. THOSE WHO ACTUALLY WERE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AND THE POLICE WHO WORK WILLINGLY TO HOLD THOSE ACCOUNTABLE. 

 I DON'T TAKE ANYONE'S SIDE IN THIS MATTER! I BELIEVE THE TWO ARE TOO TOXIC FOR THE SHOW! THEY BOTH SHOULD SETTLE THEIR DIFFERENCES IN A COURTROOM.

Cop Walks Again In Sam DuBose Murder!

Mistrial in the trial of a dirty cop shooting Sam DuBose.

Former University of Cincinnati cop Ray Tensing walks free again. The former cop who was accused of fatally shooting Samuel DuBuse after a traffic stop got another mistrial.

The jury couldn't decide on whether the cop acted improperly when he fired on an unarmed DuBose.

Once again the justice system fails Black America.

The jury deliberated for more than five days on charges of murder and voluntary manslaughter.

This fatal encounter happened two years ago in the Mt. Auburn neighborhood. The July 2015 incident brought attention to the city and the infamous unrest that happened in 2001.

The judge, Leslie Ghiz sent jurors back to deliberations on Friday and they still couldn't reach a unanimous verdict.
Sam DuBose was the father of eight. He was killed by a dirty cop.
Prosecutors are signaling a third trial will happen soon.

The family of Sam DuBose said, "this is bullshit!"

"The family commends the prosecutors for their strong presentation in this case but we are outraged that a second jury has now failed to convict Ray Tensing for the murder of our beloved Sam DuBose. We demand another retrial. We call on the community to join us in peaceful protest of this unjust result."

The first trial was a mistrial as well.

Prosecutor Joe Deter said that the body camera evidence doesn't support Tensing's claim that he was threatened by DuBose.

Tensing shot DuBose at point blank range and the vehicle took off and later crashed. In the body camera footage, Tensing was trying to reach for DuBose and the car raved up. Tensing took less than a second and shot DuBose in the face.

Tensing was fired from the University of Cincinnati Police and immediately arrested.

Some people noted that Tensing wore a Confederate shirt while in uniform. Some also noted his previous encounters where he was disrespectful to Black motorists.

DuBose was pulled over for a taillight violation.

Often many people of color are stopped for some of the most pettiest offenses. Most officers will use a lame excuse to justify an unlawful search of your vehicle. Most often times they'll cite turn signal light, license plate light, failure to signal, and suspicious behavior in a public area.

This nonsense is got to stop.

BAD COPS ARE GOING TO GET GOOD COPS KILLED. FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP.

 GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

 DONALD J. TRUMP, REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS AND THE AGITATORS IN THE JUNK FOOD MEDIA ARE TOO DUMB TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S GETTING HOT! AND SOON IT WILL BLOW UP AND THE COUNTRY WILL SEE VIOLENT REACTION.

 EXPECT MORE MASS SHOOTINGS.

 EXPECT MORE COPS SHOOTING UNARMED PEOPLE OF COLOR.

 LEGALLY ARMED BLACK PEOPLE ARE TARGETS OF POLICE. EVEN DOING .

 EXPECT COPS TO USE "I FEARED FOR MY LIFE" AS AN EXCUSE TO GET OFF MURDER!

Uber Is Sputtering On Fumes!

Travis Kalanick steps down amid a controversy at Uber. He also took personal leave because of the death of his mother Bonnie Kalanick. 

Travis Kalanick, the embattled CEO of Uber is stepping down. He will take a leave of absence in the wake of a scandal that has the ride-sharing company in dire straits.

Kalanick resigned from Donald J. Trump's board of business executives after he tried to issue a Muslim Ban and the exiting of the Paris Accord.

He also is stepping down after he found out his parents were injured in a boating accident. His mother died after the boat she was in capsized. Bonnie and Donald Kalanick were in California. His father was severely injured and it's depressed him.

Kalanick was under fire after he got into a verbal tirade with an Uber driver after the Superbowl.

Kalanick was openly telling his passengers that he is cutting back on Uber drivers as a "cost-cutting" move. The driver overheard it and told him that Uber was his only source of income and he was getting ready to file for bankruptcy because of the changes.

Kalanick got heated with him and told him to find someone else to cry to. He apologized for the incident.

Alphabet, the parent company of Google is suing Uber for property theft. The company claims Uber stole the designs of the unmanned car that Alphabet wanted to run in the United States.

These scandal really damaged it's reputation as the country's best "side hustle." But what done it in was the allegations of sexual harassment and frat boy behavior at Uber main office in San Francisco.

Uber was promoted on talk radio. The country's most annoying conservative agitator, Sean "Softball" Hannity was promoting this on his radio show. Many talk radio shows and television commercials dealt with Uber.
Uber is falling apart.
Uber's board includes celebrities, former politicians and global movers. Ashton Kutcher, Arianna Huffington, Eric Holder, Jack Kingston are investors in Uber.

Uber is facing a major controversy when it comes to sexual harassment. Many of the top leaders are either resigning or being fired out the cannon.

Many drivers are upset over the handling of passengers, the payouts, and the safety. Some of the Uber drivers are opting out because the riders are damaging their cars.

Uber drivers and riders are being sexually harassed.

I am employed as an Uber driver on the side. But for the last three months, I've took a "break" from the ride-sharing social media service. I am frustrated with the ride-sharing service for it's lack of understanding.

Sure I enjoyed a full year of making profit. I made nearly $13,000 for the year. But I owe the federal government a whole lot for all them drives. First issue is they don't tax you. If you don't know how to file taxes as a business, you're pretty much fucked when the taxes come at the end of the year.

Second, the rides aren't coming fast enough. There were times I was on the road for three hours and I hadn't gotten at least one call since. People are dumping on Uber and joining Lyft.

Lyft isn't immune from the controversy as well. It's just not as big in Dayton, Ohio, a rust belt city with no real value other than being a hub for opioid abuse.

Uber is asking for former drivers and riders to come back. They are promising to change their ways.

But is it too late?

Cause of course, I am tired of the company not working for the needs of their drivers and riders.

Uber is suffering. What can the company do to make itself a profitable company?

Why Would St. Louis Police Shoot One Of Their Own?

St. Louis Police are investigating a shooting of a cop by one of its own.
The independent city of St. Louis is the second largest city in Missouri. It's called "The Gateway to the West." and the famous Arch welcomes Americans to the west. It sits on the Mississippi River.

The highways that travel through the city and metropolitan area include Interstates 44, 55, 64, 70, 170, 255, U.S. 40, U.S. 50, U.S. 61 and U.S. 6.7 The city's metro includes the suburbs of St. Louis County, the cities of St. Charles, Chesterfield and the Illinois cities of Alton and East St. Louis.

St. Louis is the midpoint between Chicago, Tulsa, Memphis, Kansas City, Louisville and Indianapolis.

The city's current population is 313,000 residents. The majority of the city's population is 53% Black and 44% White. It's one of the many cities stuck in the Rust Belt.

An off duty officer was wounded by "friendly fire" as police were looking for suspects in a stolen vehicle. They fled police and crashed into a pole on Wednesday.

The officer who was off duty was shot after another officer didn't notice who he was.
DeAndre Chaney.
The officer is being treated for his injuries and was just released yesterday.

Interim Police Chief Lawrence O'Toole was telling the junk food media, that the incident was unfortunate and it was crossfire that led to the shooting.

The injured officer was Black and the officer who shot him was White.

According to the department summary of the incident released, two officers who encountered the armed off-duty officer ordered him to the ground. He complied. When they recognized the off-duty officer, they told him he could stand up and walk towards them.

Another officer who arrived at the scene saw the officer. He didn't recognize him and fired his weapon at the off-duty officer. The officer was hit in the arm.

The officer who fired his service weapon will be place in the freezer determining if the officer's use of force was justified. The other officers who ordered the off-duty officer to ground will be likely placed in the freezer pending an investigation whether they were justified in detaining the off-duty officer.

The family of Michael Brown will receive payment from the city of Ferguson.
Mind you in neighboring St. Louis County, the city of Ferguson just paid the family of Michael Brown the amount of $1.5 million in damages.

The city of Ferguson will issue the sum to Lezley McSpadden and Michael Brown, Sr. the parents of the teen who was killed by Darren Wilson, the former officer who shot him in 2014.

It touched off days of unrest and it lead to a national discussion about Black interactions with law enforcement. Black Lives Matter became a focal voice in the matter.

Wilson was not found criminally liable for the shooting. He has since resigned from the force. The mayor, James Knowles III, Tom Jackson, former police chief and Wilson were named in the lawsuit.

Federal judge Richard Webber sealed the details of the statement.

Ferguson was ordered to change its policies and admitted that it disproportionately targeted Black motorists. Some city officials were fired out the cannon when they were caught sending racially offensive emails about the case, then president Barack Obama and Black people in general.

Ferguson is recruiting more officers of color and is reducing it's zero tolerance rules when it comes to fines owed to the city.
