American photographer gets an iconic picture of a terrorist plotting an attack.
This kookspiracy called QAnon sparked a terrorist to open fire on a federal court house in Dallas.
QAnon is sparked by far-white agitators like Alex Jones and Sean "Softball" Hannity. They made the claim that a shadow branch of the federal government is plotting to oust Donald J. Trump through secretive means. They believe that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey and others are responsible for the chaos that plagues Trump.
They want them locked up for corruption. They are unaware that Trump is playing them for fools.
The far-white once again is motivated to attack.
This terrorist was fatally shot after exchanging gunfire with federal officers outside the Earle Cabell Federal Building in Dallas, Texas.
A Dallas Morning News photographer named Tom Fox managed to catch the picture of an armed terrorist who was hell bent on killing many.
The terrorist was wearing a black mask carrying the rifle of choice and AR15 running from the sidewalk near the courthouse to a parking lot across the street.
The terrorist reportedly served in the U.S. military for less than two years before he was discharged.
He was on social media plotting. He even said that the "fucking storm was coming."
The terrorist said it best, he believed the government is corrupt and he wanted to protect his assets.
"The storm is about to pay for kicking me off my porch. I don't know how much longer I have, but the fucking storm is coming. However I'm not without defense. I'm fucking ready. Let's do it."
The social media post is been scrubbed from Facebook.
The terrorist was shot after a brief exchange with the feds. He was shot twice. They tried to revive him but he died on route to the hospital.
Now the feds are trying to unearth a cache of information to why this reasonable "NICE GUY" managed to become the latest mass shooter.
As I've said many times.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
Chris Matthews comes to Dayton to discuss how Trump won America's rust belt.
Chris Matthews finished his taping in Dayton, Ohio. The MSNBC agitator came to the heart of America's rust belt for a candid discussion with residents who voted for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump in the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election.
Matthews is doing a tour of the Midwest. This is one of the key regions that Republicans need to secure in order for Donald J. Trump to continue his legacy. Trump carried Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. The states went to Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012. They went to Trump in 2016.
Montgomery County is a swing county. Trump won this county by six points. He visited the Dayton region twice whereas Clinton never visited. It made a huge difference.
Matthews talks to local officials and members of community for a rousing discussion on whether Trump or the Democratic nominee can win Ohioans.
Dayton has suffered from the loss manufacturing, a local hospital, many restaurants and grocery stores and technology firms.
It was also the area hardest hit from major tornadoes.
Patrick Shanahan is sacked. The Acting Secretary of Defense was fired after The Washington Post reported on him being involved in a domestic violence dispute.
Trump's pick to replace Jim Mathis was sacked this morning. Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan is fired out the cannon after allegations of domestic abuse surfaced.
The feds are investigating him. He withdrew his nomination today.
The Washington Post published a report detailing a violent encounter in 2011 in which Shanahan's son attacked his mother with a baseball bat.
William, the 17 year old son of Shanahan brutally beaten his mother with a baseball bat.
Shanahan rushed to defend his son in the days of the attack. Weeks later, Shanahan wrote a memo to prepare for his son's initial appearance in court. Dad claimed his son acted in self-defense.
Shanahan said he regretted writing the memo and never intended for anyone other than his son's attorneys to read it.
He withdrew his nomination claiming the details of this brought "a painful and deeply personal family situation from long ago."
Trump posted on social media the firing.
Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan, who has done a wonderful job, has decided not to go forward with his confirmation process so that he can devote more time to his family....
"Quite frankly, it's difficult to relive that moment and the passage was difficult for me to read. I was wrong to write those three sentences," he said. "I have never believed Will's attack on his mother was an act of self-defense or justified. I don't believe violence is appropriate ever, and certainly never any justification for attacking someone with a baseball bat."
Trump's White House has the most turnover in modern history.
Shanahan previously served as deputy defense secretary; before that, he worked for more than 30 years at Boeing. In March, the Defense Department announced it had opened an ethics investigation into allegations that Shanahan regularly touted Boeing over other defense contractors, including Lockheed Martin, while serving in an official government capacity.
The Pentagon's inspector general cleared Shanahan of the allegations in April.
With tensions rising between the United States and Iran, the Trump team are planning on how to keep a full blown war from happening. Thanks to that asshole Benjamin Netanyahu, the United States walked way from the JCPOA. That lead to more tensions between the Middle East and the West.
American blogger claimed that Cuba Gooding, Jr. ran his finger up her butt.
The actor who is best known for his roles in Boyz N' The Hood and Jerry McGuire turned himself last week. The actor, 51 is accused of groping a woman while at a New York bar. The New York Police Department Special Victims Division and the Manhattan Criminal Court have made charges.
The charges could carry up to 10 years in the iron college and make the actor join the Offender U club under TIER II.
The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
There's another accuser who shares her story about meeting the entertainer and he ran his finger on the ham bone.
Claudia Oshry is an American blogger who created Girl With No Job and The Morning Toast made the allegations that Gooding inserted his finger into her butt.
"At the end of the day --- like, I don't know if I've ever considered myself to be, like, a victim of sexual assault because I'm not. There are people who are real victims that I would never compare myself to them. But yes, when I was in high school -- I was fucking 16 years old -- Cuba Gooding, Jr. put his finger up my butt, and I felt wild. Like, I felt -- I don't even know the right word is. And now, It's just become, like, a part of who I am. It's a part of my story.
Mark Heller, the lawyer for Gooding said, "Never heard of her." He said that his client denies he recognizes or remembers Oshry at all.
"Cuba says the incident never happened and he had no recollection of this individual either," said Heller.
Oshry, who also tours as a comedian, added that she has since worked the experience she had with Gooding into her acts. She said that a "Jerry McGuire" star becoming too hands-on with them at bars and clubs.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. smiles as he leaves the courtroom. He claims that he never groped the victim.
"At least once every show, someone who comes up to me, they're like, 'Oh my God! Me and my friends were at a club and the same thing happened to me' or 'the same thing happened to my friend.' This is not the first time that I've heard, but this is the first time I've heard that police are involved."
So that means, at age 16, she entered a bar and saw Gooding in a intoxicated state. The entertainer would probably grope women when he's under the influence of alcohol.
Mind you, is Cuba Gooding, Jr. in underage teen clubs or adult clubs? Or is Claudia Oshry using fake IDs or her mother's connections to get into places.
What the junk food media continues to leave out is the fact that Claudia Oshry is the daughter of Pam Geller, a notorious white extremist who promotes anti-Muslim propaganda.
Claudia, Jackie, Olivia, and Margo Oshry are a group of sisters in New York living the millennial dream, running viral Instagram accounts and ruthlessly curating their online images.
Pamela Geller has built a career off leveraging the media to incite outrage with her racist, Islamophobic comments. She is widely regarded as an alt-right troll; the Southern Poverty Law Center described her rhetoric as "hate speech."
Claudia Oshry's mother is Pam Geller. This woman is a dangerous figure. She has promoted anti-Muslim propaganda and encourage individuals to arm themselves when it comes to Muslims.
Claudia Oshry married her longtime boyfriend Ben Soffer a couple of years ago. They asked their friends and family to leave their phones at home. They wanted only pictures taken from wedding planners and kept the ceremony private without much fan-fare. The reason to why they wanted to keep it hush hush was the fact her mother was there. Oshry knew that if Geller was spotted, her career would be ruined. Even she knows her mother is a danger to the nation.
Geller supports her campaign to ban Muslims and proudly promotes Donald J. Trump's antics.
She made a tearful apology telling her fans that she "loves" her mother but isn't really keen on her brand of celebrity.
I want to believe her. I seriously believe her accusations. However, I do want the junk food media to acknowledge that she is the daughter of a far-white extremist.
And for the fact that she claimed she was 16 years old in a bar with a grown ass man only questions why the hell an underage woman ever be in an adult club without proper identification?
American iconic model Gloria Vanderbilt passed away.
Gloria Laura Vanderbilt was an American artist, author, actress, fashion designer, heiress and socialite. She was a member of the Vanderbilt family and is mother of CNN agitator Anderson Cooper.
She died in her Manhattan home with friends and family at her side.
"Gloria Vanderbilt was an extraordinary woman, who loved life, and lived it on her own terms," Cooper said in a statement. "She was a painter, a writer and designer but also a remarkable mother, wife, and friend.
"She was 95 years old, but ask anyone close to her, and they'd tell you: She was the youngest person they knew -- the coolest and most modern."
Vanderbilt was diagnosed with an advanced form of stomach cancer earlier this month, Cooper said.
She was famous before she became famous. When she was a young girl, her mother and paternal aunt got into a huge feud over her well-being. Her mother Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt was feuding with Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. They were both disputing the custody and control of the little child's trust fund.
It was called the "trial of the century" by the junk food media and the court proceedings let to sensationalism. Gertrude proved to the courts that Gloria was an unfit parent and lost custody rights.
It was disputed all the way to the Supreme Court. The Court threw the case back to the lower courts and it stood firm that Gertrude was the guardian of little Gloria.
Gloria was the focus of media attention at an early age, dubbed "the poor little rich girl" amid an intense custody battle between her mother and her father's wealthy sister, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. Though her aunt prevailed in court proceedings, young Gloria didn't know her well. She considered her nanny, Dodo, her mother figure.
"As a teenager she tried to avoid the spotlight, but reporters and cameramen followed her everywhere," Cooper said. "She was determined to make something of her life, determined to make a name for herself, and find the love she so desperately needed."
Modeling was an early interest, and at 15 she was photographed for Harper's Bazaar, the first of many appearances as a fashion model. She'd go on to appear in Vogue and Vanity Fair magazines and to pose for renowned photographers, such as Richard Avedon.
When she was 17, she married Hollywood agent Pat DiCicco in 1941, against her Aunt Gertrude's wishes. She'd later concede she knew it was a mistake at the time.
At 21, she took control of a $4.3 million trust fund her father had left her. She divorced DiCicco two months later and promptly remarried -- this time, to conductor Leopold Stokowski, who was 63 at the time.
"I knew him for a week and married three weeks later," she told Cooper during an interview.
Asked if her friends thought it was weird that she had fallen for a man four decades her senior, she said, "Didn't matter to me."
A fashion icon.
Vanderbilt made her mark on American fashion by debuting what was arguably the first designer denim brand. After working as an actress, starting in the ‘50s, moving from theater productions to television dramas, Vanderbilt experimented with textile and home design in the ‘70s, also designing some dresses. This ultimately led to a partnership with Mohan Murjani of the Murjani Group to design blouses and then to launch her eponymous Gloria Vanderbilt fashion brand in 1976 with a line of name-brand women’s jeans, identified by her handwritten name embroidered on the back and a signature swan logo on the inner front pocket that winked at her first theater role in The Swan.
Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt.
Vanderbilt, who began modeling when she was a teenager, served as the face of the label. The jeans were marketed with a $1 million television ad campaign, touting their perfect tapered fit that catered to women’s curves, making sleek designer denim a chic wardrobe staple. The jeans were also showcased by female stars such as Debbie Harry of Blondie (who made an ad for the brand) and on sitcoms Three’s Company, Mork and Mindy, and Dynasty. The line ultimately expanded to include additional women’s apparel, footwear, jewelry, fragrance and home accessories.
In 2002, the Jones Apparel Group acquired the rights to Gloria Vanderbilt Apparel Corp. Three years later, the company issued a reboot of the original ‘70s designs with an ad campaign featuring supermodels Gisele Bundchen, Kate Moss and Daria Webowy.
“Gloria was an icon,” Tommy Hilfiger told The Hollywood Reporter. “I met her in the early '80s through the Murjani family who owned the Gloria Vanderbilt Jeans business. We were launching the Tommy Hilfiger business with Murjani around the same time. She was a lovely, sophisticated woman with warmth and kindness.”
Far-white agitator who survived mass shooting in Parkland dismissed from Harvard.
The Turning Point USA agitator who is a survivor of the Parkland massacre was dropped from Harvard University. He was caught saying NIGGER some years ago.
The Parkland shooting survivor and pro-Second Amendment activist said that Harvard University rescinded his acceptance as a result of racist remarks he made before the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Kyle Kashuv is the guy who often shows up to counter March for Our Lives activists David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez. He was there when the shooting happened on February 2018.
He became a vocal opponent of March for Our Lives. Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens of TPUSA enlisted Kashuv as their ambassador for high school recruitment. He left the organization in May.
Owens left as well in May.
He has appeared on Fox News, Newsmax, Conservative Review (BlazeTV) and other outlets promote bullshit. He often plays the victim when he's called out for his rampant bullshit peddling.
Now Kashuv is exposed a racist troll. I knew he was but I held back seeing he was a victim of a mass shooting. But since the far-white often calls Hogg a "crisis actor" and sent him death threats, it's about time Kashuv becomes a distant memory.
Kashuv wrote an apology for his remarks and posted a screenshot of what appears to be a June 3 letter from the Harvard Deans of Admissions rescinding his admission.
"I believe that institutions and people can grow. I've said that repeatedly. In the end, this isn't about me. It's about whether we live in a society in which forgiveness is possible or mistakes brand you as irredeemable, as Harvard has decided for me. I have given up huge scholarships in order to go to Harvard, and the deadline for accepting other college offers has ended. I'm exploring all options at the moment."
Harvard accepted his apology but stand firm to keeping his theatrics out of the prestigious school.
Diamond & Silk, Candace Owens, David Clarke, Kevin Jackson and Kyle Kashuv became famous after promoting Donald J. Trump and his brand of nationalism. They get airplay whenever progressive activists become involved in America's latest controversy.
Disgraced cop Scot Peterson faces trial for negligent homicide.
In other Parkland news, the former Broward County deputy Scot Peterson was indicted on seven counts of neglect of a child, three counts of culpable negligence and one count of perjury stemming from the mass shooting in Parkland that left 17 students and staff members dead.
The fired Florida deputy sheriff appeared in court to face a slew of charges stemming from his alleged inaction in the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland.
The suspect could face 70 years in the iron college. The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Chris Matthews is filming in Dayton, Ohio. He is addressing how residents of this community voted for Trump.
MSNBC agitator Chris Matthews comes to the heart of the rust belt. He comes to Dayton, Ohio, a city that has 135,000 residents. The county seat is Montgomery County. The county that voted twice for Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012 but for the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election voted for Donald J. Trump.
Matthews will be hosting a town hall at 10pm on the cable network. He will be interviewing individuals who live in this community and get the honest take on whether Trump or his Democratic opponent could win the state in the 2020 election.
The Deciders will be taped for Hardball.
Matthews will be taping at the Mendelsons nic-nak store.
Trump has a 65% chance of winning reelection.
There's a 75% chance Trump will carry Ohio in 2020.
Things could change if the Democrats come back to their senses. I mean the party has played nice for years and kind of ignore the Rust Belt. How many times has Hillary Clinton came to Dayton, Ohio during the 2016 election?
I don't know, not too much. She felt that she could carry the state with the Northeastern region.
Montgomery County is now considered a swing county. Folks who often vote for Democrats voted for Republicans. I mean they voted for John Kasich and Mike DeWine.
The city's mayor Nan Whaley is a Democrat.
Trotwood, Ohio is one of the Dayton suburbs that was destroyed by the tornadoes.
Dayton continues to struggle despite Trump's promises of "Making America Great Again."
Dayton has lost a major hospital, had to close up schools, lost three grocery stores in a city that is considered a food desert, suffered major destruction from two EF-4 tornadoes and had no significant change in population since the great exodus of white folks to the suburbs.
Dayton is a segregated city. The river and Interstate 75 divides the community.
Many in northwest and west Dayton suffer the worst. With the lost of Good Samaritan Hospital and the decline of manufacturing, the city has become a beacon of blight and despair.
The only things that Dayton has going are the Hollywood Gaming casino, the Wright Patterson Air Force Base, the Dayton Dragons baseball club and the Dayton Aviation National Historical Park.
There's not much I can say about the community itself. I wish things could change but that's heresy.
The city is caught between Cincinnati, Columbus, Indianapolis and Toledo. Where the only area in the state that is significantly growing is Columbus with Cincinnati slowly expanding it's metropolis.
Columbus is the state capital and largest city. The population of Columbus is 947,000 residents.
Cincinnati is the third largest city in the state. The population of Cincinnati is 302,000 residents. The city's metropolitan area which includes parts of Indiana and Kentucky has a population of 3.5 million residents.
Trolls react to the Phoenix couple being abuse by the police. I respond to the bullshit.
Everyone has a say in the controversy surrounding the Phoenix metro police allegedly using excessive force in the arrest of a Black family.
In our last posting, I addressed Dravon Ames and Iesha Harper being verbally and physically assaulted by two white cops. A handful of people filmed the encounter and it went viral.
The family sued the Phoenix Police and it's got America talking.
With camera phones being used, witnesses observed two white cops threaten the family with potential violence. You see the white cops brutally detain the father and mother while a witness grabs their children.
Once cop said that he will put a fucking cap in her ass if she don't surrender.
Yet, here on Journal Da La Reyna, we have trolls who have an opinion that clearly goes against what those cops did. The obvious remarks from the trolls is, "well they were shoplifting from the store."
Uh, let the comments speak for themselves.
Grab a magnifying glass and your highlighter, here comes the trolls and another response from me to the trolls who visit our blog.
The police were a bit rough, sure, but how many times do we see the guy pull a gun on Cops, there's thousands of videos that show guys pulling guns on Cops...
They committed multiple crimes, they evaded police, they drove on suspended license... I mean, damn, wake up people!
How are the Cops supposed to treat criminals?

KW said...
Conveniently left out of everyone's complaints are these points: 1) it wasn't only the child that stole something. One of the ladies also stole something. 2) when the police FIRST approached these people THEY FLED IN THEIR CAR!!! 3) when police finally caught up with them THATS when they were angry and treated the people badly.
IF you resist arrest, flee the scene, make police chase you, etc, THEY WILL BE ANGRY AND PROBABLY WILL NOT TREAT YOU VERY NICELY. That's your own fault. Try not committing crimes next time, following laws and obeying police commands, not fleeing the scene of a crime, etc...
Let me remind them that this is an apologetically Black blog. This blog deals with issues facing the community, the government, and the junk food media.
I'm very clear when I post online that I am tolerant of race, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality and economic standings. I am very critical of conservatives and the blatant hypocrisy and moral grandstanding. They clearly ignore the obvious. They often use the old conscientious thinking that often brings out their racism.
Dravon Ames and Iesha Harper are getting death threats and harsh criticism from far-white trolls. The couple sued the Phoenix Police after last month's brutal pullover video. Two white cops with guns drawn threatened to kill the family.
You claim that the child stole something. Okay, so you believe that the parents allowed their child to steal. Children are naive. They make mistakes. That kind of stuff happens. One of the ladies stole something. Big fucking deal. A measly theft of small items. The company is insured. It's not a fucking store worker's responsibility to stop shoplifters. The management can call the law all they want, but if they didn't commit armed robbery, then it's not a big deal to cops. Cops have bigger issues other than petty theft.
You claim that they resisted arrest. Okay, so why were they brutalize arrested? Why were the actions on the camera condemned by the mayor and police chief? Matter of fact, the video speaks for itself. This was unprofessional and quite frankly scary for the family and those filming it.
You claim that they evaded police. Okay, so why did they stay in place when they had guns drawn?
You claim that they had suspended licenses. Okay, why weren't they charged with that?
You claim that the cops are being treated like criminals. Okay, why are they being paid on our taxpayer dime to treat the people they're supposed to protect like that? Matter of fact, how many cops have done criminal acts while on or off-durty? Quite frankly, you can't answer that because you want to believe they deserve that type of treatment.
Fuck you!
You claim that others pull a guns on cops. Okay, they were unarmed. So you're assuming they have firearms on them. In Arizona, you're allowed to carry firearms in public or in your vehicle. Are you telling me that people of color aren't allowed to carry firearms in public or concealed in their vehicles?
Cops drew their guns at a Black family. A woman had to grab the mother's children because they feared the cops would kill them.
So you really telling me that if they had no license, they evaded police and they could of had a gun on them, they deserve the verbal and physical abuse? They deserve the treatment?
Right. You really have no answer for that trolls. It's a damn shame though. Folks like you aren't realizing the seriousness of this.
We are taxpayers who have to pay these cops salaries. We are the folks who have the First Amendment right to film police activity, disrespect cops, trolls, the president, Congress, local leaders, Democrats, Republicans, agitators in the junk food media, etc. We are the folks who have the Fourth Amendment to not be subjected to unreasonable search and seizures without warrants. We are the folks that have a right to call out racism and condemn it throughly.
Me and LeReyna are awake. We don't need you're wake up calls! We ain't in the business of being awaken to an ongoing issue in the community of color. If we're conveniently leaving out something, it's the fact you've left out your fucking compassion for human beings.
If you have an opportunity to strain your eyes, I want you to understand the grievances of concern trolls.
As usual the concern troll blames the victim. Hey, no one is perfect. No one can live in a glass house without a stone being thrown at it. I mean haven't you had a traffic violation or even an encounter with the law?
Witnesses see a cop brutally abuse a motorist.
"We ain't holding a gun to your head telling you to read our blog! Why you keep punishing yourself?"
I am not planning on going anywhere. I am grateful to LeReyna and will continue to help make her blog grow and succeed. Whether we gain support or criticism, we appreciate the good readers who view our blog.
THIS IS AN AFRICAN AMERICAN ISSUES BLOG. AS EXPECTED, WE WILL EXPECT COMMENTS FROM TROLLS. THESE TROLLS OFTEN FIND OUR BLOGS TO SOW DISCOURSE AND RACIAL ANGST. THEY ARE A BUNCH OF LOSERS WHO HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO WITH THEIR PATHETIC LIVES.
This country is more polarized, less religious, less educated, less motivated, highly overweight, and bloodthirsty. We hide behind platitudes and run on narratives about who's more right than factual.
We are driven to discourse by the junk food media and social media. I cannot stop it. I am not in the business to stop it. However, I do have control over how I read things on this blog. I have semi-control over what is posted on this blog. I am not planning on changing my views on Trump no time soon.
Do us a favor. Ignore the trolls. Don't feed them. Use them as an example to keep pushing harder for police reform. Use them for the opportunity to move the discussion forward.
Continue to read at your own peril.
We will not stop.
We will not be moved.
We will fight for the rights of people of color.
We will hold Donald J. Trump, Congress, bad cops and those associated to them accountable.
We will not waste our time worrying about you or those who think like you.
We all have lives outside the blog. Why don't you move past our blog and find a blog that supports your views?
Mississippi woman was called a "black bitch" by a white server after he handed her a receipt.
A woman order food from an Oxford, Mississippi restaurant and ended up getting more than the bill. She was called a Black bitch by one of the servers and it appeared on her receipt.
This employee at this Mississippi restaurant thought it was funny to call a customer a bitch.
Alexia Washington was eating at Who Dat's on Friday. She ordered food and was horrified that receipt had that offensive slur on it.
Washington said that she immediately reported this to the manager who made the employee apologize.
However she was disturbed by the actions and decided to make an example out of him.
She posted on social media slamming what she believes is outright racism in the era of Donald J. Trump. A person who embellishes the negatives of America itself.
"I didn't have any type of hostility. He didn't have any hostility with me.
Her friend Jake Smith (under Jakez Smith) posted this on social media.
Washington had posted her response online but had to scrub it after she got racist remarks and death threats.
It went viral and it forced the owner of Who Dat's, Wylie Coleman to formally apologize. He also said that the employee in question was fired out the cannon.
"I seek justice for this hate crime and I will no longer remain silent," Washington wrote. "I’ve lived in Oxford for 5 years and I’m still having to deal with this type of ignorance. I’m not a rude or hateful person. I was not rude when I was at this establishment and was greeted with this kind of service. I will not stand for it."
Coleman said "the employee responsible did not represent us as a business or personality. We do not feel this way about women or condone any racial identifier. We feel identities of sex & race should be communicated in a formal & professional manner in every place of business & we feel like it is most important to have employees that already have that professionalism behind closed doors.
"There is no justice to this immediately & we will respond to everyone in time." the post continued. "We apologize about this situation and will grow from it."
Mississauga woman was accused by an Old Navy employee of theft.
A woman in Canada was accosted by a cashier at an Old Navy. This happened at Mississauga, Ontario. The city of Mississauga has a population of 859,000 residents.
The Square One Shopping Centre is one of the largest shopping plazas in Ontario.
Lisa Calderon posted footage on Facebook of her interaction with an Old Navy employee at the mall.
She was confronted by Stephanie who accused her of shoplifting out of the store. She grabbed Lisa's wrist and refused to let her go after Stephanie claimed she didn't pay for a top she was wearing.
Calderon gets riled up and says she will press charges if the worker didn't let go.
The worker asked her, "Did you pay for this shirt at Old Navy, the tag is still on it."
Calderon repeatedly told the worker she didn't steal the item. She then records the encounter and soon security comes. Security along with the manager calm the situation.
Eventually, Calderon agreed to return to Old Navy, where the manager apologized and admitted the employee had no right to put her hands on Calderon.
Canadian woman calls the law on a Black woman she accused of shoplifting.
"I would've been more calm and understanding if she didn't accuse me first, and would've been happy to show my receipt, especially because I voiced my racial profile complaint to the employee before I left the store," said Calderon.
"This needs to stop, [this worker] had no right to aggressively lay her hands on me and accuse me of stealing a $13 dollar top, had she not done that, this situation would've ended quietly."
The worker was fired out the cannon and Old Navy swiftly apologized for the encounter.
Even in Canada, women of color are under attack. It's not just here in the United States. White people continue to use their privilege to undermine people of color.
Donald J. Trump is not just a problem in the United States but in Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and France. Everything he does affects everyone.
Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers. Thoughts and prayers won't heal the wounded or bring back the dead. Memorials, street graffiti, lowering of flags, saying "your heart goes out to," moments of silence and prayers are platitudes. This is a man-made crisis. Our lawmakers are numb to gun violence. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They continue to enable gun violence by allowing potential threats to obtain firearms. No one should live in fear of a mass shooting. You're not safe in government buildings, nightclubs, schools, universities, churches, mosques, synagogues, the workplace, places of interest and the home.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
There was a shooting inside a California Costco. Three people were shot. One of the victims died.
The terrorist was arrested. Assuming the terrorist is white.
Lt. Jeff Edwards of the Corona police said the terrorist was immediately released to the public.
The shooting stemmed from an argument inside the Costco. The relationship between the victims and the terrorist was unknown.
Another mass shooting in the United States. This happened in Corona, California. The shooter was caught. Who actually takes the blame? (Expect trolls to pick the dumbest answers)
The incident is not believed to be a domestic dispute. Police aren't looking for anyone else in this latest mass shooting. Officers found that four people were down inside the Costco. The suspect, the killed shopper and two other shoppers. The person killed wasn't identified until the family notification.
Three lives were affected by a mass shooter.
Some folks were upset that Costco had emergency doors that wouldn't open. Some were trying to flee the store. A witness said that he and his girlfriend heard four shots and tried to escape through the exits but the emergency door couldn't open. Costco had no comment on the matter other than ensuring that those injured are in their "thoughts."
This type of stuff happens everyday.
Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Gavin Newsom, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), the 53 U.S. Representatives of California will do their usual thoughts and prayers.
They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk." Others will say that "the NRA has too much influence on gun laws."
We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. If this happened at a school or a nightclub, this would drive agitators to the scene to do sympathy/survivor stories.
Gun violence is an everyday thing in the United States. We need to change the norm. We need to vote out the status quo. Republicans and Democrats who are embolden by the gun lobby and special interest groups need to be booted out. I mean they really need to be booted out.
Phoenix Metro Police officers point their guns at an unarmed Black family.
BE WARNED THE IMAGES AND VIDEO FOOTAGE ARE GRAPHIC.
Yeah, this is disturbing. It's really bad for the Phoenix Metro Police. They are seriously doing damage control after two of their cops telling a man and his pregnant girlfriend to get the fuck out their car or he'll put a fucking cap in their head.
Oh, yeah!
BAD COPS WILL GET GOOD COPS KILLED. GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
CONSERVATIVES SAY THAT THERE ARE MORE BLACK CHILDREN LIVING IN SINGLE PARENT HOUSEHOLDS WITHOUT A FATHER. WELL THAT'S FUNNY! WHEN THE POLICE SHOOT AN UNARMED MAN, THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE CHILD'S FATHER. THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS WON'T HEAL THE WOUNDED OR BRING BACK THE DEAD. LOWERING FLAGS, STREET MEMORIALS, MOMENTS OF SILENCE, SAYING "YOUR HEART GOING OUT" AND PRAYER ARE PLATITUDES. THIS IS A MAN-MADE CRISIS. OUR LAWMAKERS ARE NUMB TO GUN VIOLENCE IN THE UNITED STATES. DONALD J. TRUMP, CONGRESS, THE NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION ARE LILY-LIVERED COWARDS. THEY ENABLE GUN VIOLENCE BY ROLLING BACK LAWS THAT KEEP FIREARMS OUT OF POTENTIAL THREATS TO SOCIETY. FIREARMS KILL 96 PEOPLE A DAY. NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE ABOUT GUN VIOLENCE UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO FALL UPON THEM.
Dravon Ames and Iesha Harper are filing a $10 million lawsuit against the law agency after two of their officers used excessive force and threatened to shoot them in an escalating encounter caught on camera.
Ames, 22 and Harper, 24 were pulled over by the law near 36th and Roosevelt Streets on May 29.
They allege the cops pointed a gun at their children, threatened them and physically harmed Ames and their daughter all because the child took a doll from a dollar store.

The Phoenix Police Department is investigating after an officer was caught on cell phone video sweeping a man's leg after handcuffing him, while another officer pointed a gun at a pregnant mother and her two daughters. https://t.co/Xpq1pIloNcpic.twitter.com/1NWOULXdFW
The encounter was filmed by numerous shoppers. They were shocked to hear cops deliberately threaten death on a woman and her children.
Ames said the video begins about 10 minutes after the law stopped them.
The couple said it all stemmed from an anonymous call to the law that their toddler stole a doll from a Family Dollar store----something the family says was an accident.
Ames said that they were dropping off their daughter at the babysitter's apartment when the unknown cop stopped them. Ames claimed the officers didn't use his lights or sirens. The daughters were 4 and 1 years old.
"Next thing you know, a police officer .... comes up, open the door, banging on the window wiht a gun, saying he's gonna shoot us in the face, telling us to get out the car," said Ames in a presser.
One cop identified as Meyers was on camera saying "You're going to get fucking shot!" The notice of claim says the officer basically saying "I'm going to put a cap in your ass!"
The cop then goes to the back side driver's door. He couldn't open it because it was malfunctioning and then he bangs on the window and threatens Harper who says she was pregnant.
The moment the cop slams Dravon Ames to the cruiser and forcing him to spread.
The second officer comes up and then threatens Ames. He then slams Ames on the pavement. As he got back up, the cop then told him to spread his legs and continuously yelled at him.
This has gotten the attention of the Arizona Bureau of Investigation and possibly the U.S. Justice Department. Given that the law won't release their names out of fear for their safety, they are immediately placed in the freezer pending an investigation into whether justifiable force was necessary.
The couple have filed a civil rights lawsuit against the police department and it's also coincidence that some of the Phoenix Metro Police officers are under review for termination. Some of them were accused of sharing racist bullshit on social media.
Insults towards Muslims, immigrants, Black people, Barack Obama, LGBTQ and pro-Trump memes were caught on some of these dirty cops pages.
We are under fire. We are under attack. Black women are being treated like this is infuriating. We need to change the norm. Get this straight, I won't shed a tear or send thoughts and prayers to those killed by gun violence.
We need police reform.
We need gun control.
We need a president and Congress that changes the status quo. Seriously, we need it.
