Curbside Offensive!

Revved up!

What happens on the road becomes fodder for social media. A road rage incident in Houston, Texas lead to a physical assault. The Houston metro police are searching for the people involved.

Again once this stuff hits the webs, it's there forever. It could cost the individuals involved, their driver's licenses, their jobs and possibly their freedom.

The person who filmed the incident went to the junk food media to enlighten the public about how ignorant these people are.

David Dao was with his daughter when she recorded the drama on FM 1960 at U.S. 290 in suburban Houston. Of course, she posted it on social media and it lit up a shitstorm of controversy.

A white vehicle was trying to pass a truck at a turn lane but it refused the pass. So I guess one of the people involved got out of the vehicle and confronted the other vehicle and all chaos erupts.

In the video it shows a man trying to calm down a woman who is arguing with another man, who is a passenger inside a white car.

The woman is then seen going back to the white car and saying something to the passenger, who threw a drink at her. The video shows the truck driver coming back into view and kicking the white car's grille.

A brawl erupted as the driver and passenger from the white car chased after the driver of the truck and began serving him a five finger roll with a side toejam jelly. The video shows the woman screaming and trying to break up the fight.

One of the people gave her the five finger roll. The man and woman got back into the truck and slammed their vehicle into the white car and sped off on U.S. 290. The white car sped after them. 

Dao told the junk food media that the four people involved in the fight were close to hitting his car. 

Dao remained calm in his vehicle and asked others to not get involved. He wanted to get out the car but feared the people fighting would see his daughter filming them and go after her. 

The Harris County Sheriff's Office has no record of an accident reported, so it's not known what happened to the drivers once they took off. 

If they are found, each individual will be charged with battery, reckless endangerment and disturbing the peace. No names were revealed at the time. They are innocent until proven guilty.

Newt Gingrich: I'm Frankly Honored If Trump Picks Me!

Trump is considering a gasbag for his running mate.

The controversial presumptive Republican nominee is considering a washed up politician as his running mate. Would he pick him and risk a hail mary?

Newt Gingrich the failed 2012 Republican presidential candidate is being floated around as the possible vice presidential candidate to Donald J. Trump. 

Oh great, the guy who once called President Barack Obama, the "food stamp president". 

This washed up politician was once a House Speaker. He was part of the great Republican Revolution. He was the biggest headache to then president Bill Clinton. Now that his wife, former first lady Hillary Clinton is running for president, the Republicans are dusting off their old playbook to target her as an enabler of her husband's alleged affairs. 

Around that time, Republicans were hoping to have Bill Clinton removed from office after he lied about having an affair with intern Monica Lewinsky. The Republicans were pushing this "family values" nonsense. 

All the while, Newt was getting it on with a lobbyist named Callista Bisek. He was once married to a woman who was his teacher. He would have an affair on her with another woman who was an author of his crappy biography. He would deliver the news of a divorce to his first wife while being treated for cancer. After six years of marriage to his second wife, he would have this affair with this lobbyist who is currently his wife. She is 26 years younger than him.

Gingrich is a hack. He's a hypocrite, a serial cheater and moron. He needs to crawl back under a goddamn rock.

The "Contract with America" was a Republican pledge to destroy the middle class. The policies and laws passed by the Republicans created the gap that made the rich richer and the poor poorer.

GOP Congressman Said A Racial Slur On Television!

Islamophobic Republican lawmaker calls Asian-Americans an offensive slur!

Republican Peter King, the Islamophobic congressman from New York says "Japs" on a television program and he refuses to apologize for the comments.

King isn't a fan of Donald Trump. He was a supporter of Jeb Bush and later Marco Rubio.

He was on Morning Joe discussing his frustration with Republicans supporting the controversial billionaire.

King claims that Trump's foreign policy experience is dangerous for America.

"National defense and homeland security are issues that mean the most to me and there's real issues with him, real problems with his views," King said.

"I don't know if he's thought them through or it's just like the guy at the end of the bar that says, 'Oh, screw them, bomb them, kill them, pull out, bring them home. You know, why pay for the Japs, why pay for the Koreans?'"

Now given the language, many in the Asian American community were offended. The use of the word "Japs" was to depict Japanese-Americans who were interned into detention camps during the peak of the Asian-Pacific war (World War II).

The video of King's comment was posted on YouTube, along with a statement from the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) National Executive Director Nihad Awad urging King to "refrain from further use of derogatory language targeting any national, ethnic or minority group."

King responded to the backlash: "The remark is entirely in the context of saying why I am not campaigning for Trump, defending the continued presence of American troops in Japan and Korea and criticizing the candidate who like the 'guy at the end of the bar' is unthinking and mindlessly anti-Japanese. It is absolute intellectual dishonesty to characterize my comment as anti-Japanese or anti-Asian when I am satirizing and criticizing bias and ignorance."

King previously defended his use of the term to The Hill, saying, "We're getting too politically correct. Let's not get overly sensitive here."

This is how Republicans and Donald Trump think of Asian Americans, Muslims and minorities.

The Carmichael Show Makes The Cut!

NBC gives critically acclaimed sitcom a third season. The Carmichael Show is a very good comedy. 

The NBC comedy featuring Jerrod Carmichael, Loretta Devine and David Alan Grier will be on for a third season. After three weeks of patience and a lot of talk behind the scenes, NBC announces that the comedy is a go for season three. They preordered a 13-episode season.

The issue was how NBC was going to order 10 episodes instead of 20th Century Fox TV's request for a full 13 episode season.

The Carmichael Show is extremely good. But it's not a ratings draw according to NBC. The critically acclaimed sitcom was on the bubble. Tonight I am happy to announce that The Carmichael Show will return in the fall.

Inspired by the life and comedy of stand-up comic Carmichael, The Carmichael Show follows Jerrod and his opinionated Southern family as they reluctantly deal with modern-day America knocking at their front door. Nothing is off limits, including religion, sex, politics, mental health and gender identity. David Alan Grier, Loretta Devine, Amber Stevens West, Rel Howery and Tiffany Haddish co-star. Danielle Sanchez-Witzel is the showrunner.

But the price was heavy for every other show that was featured on the struggling network.

Eva Longoria's sitcom Telenovela, Best Time Ever with Neil Patrick Harris, Crowded, Game of Silence, Heartbeat, Heroes Reborn, The Mysteries of Laura, The Player, Truth Be Told, Undateable and You, Me and the Apocalypse were canceled.

America Ferrera's sitcom Superstore survives for a season two.

CBS also announced the CW will pickup Supergirl for Season 2. The show was costly to CBS and the move to the CW will give the show more flexibility. Supergirl will join Arrow, The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow. The CW kept most of their shows and I am very happy about the network keeping Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, iZombie and Jane The Virgin. These shows were critically acclaimed and were on the bubble.

Even though the critics praised the musical dramedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, the ratings weren't good.

Rachel Bloom, the series star and producer won a Golden Globe for her role on the show and the CW gave her an opportunity to keep the show viable for a second season.

ABC canceled The Muppets. The reboot of the lovable characters didn't muster enough support.

Nashville was a shocking announcement. The musical drama was prepped for a season five but ABC decided that it's curtains. Fans are hoping that Netflix or Hulu will work out a deal.

The Mindy Project survived a breathe of life. When Fox canceled the show, fan outcry drove a petition to get it on Hulu. So far, it's on Hulu and will likely be in syndication soon.

I will give my honest take on the U.S. 2016-17 TV season in August.

I will be watching The Carmichael Show. Will you?



Obama Talks Drug Abuse With Macklemore!

Macklemore talks about drug abuse with President Barack Obama.

Rapper Macklemore had an opportunity to discuss a very personal issue in President Barack Obama's weekly address. He was in attendance of the White House at a dinner for the Nordic leaders and had an opportunity to address an issue that affected him and his family.

In the weekly address, Obama pressed on Congress to pass legislation to help curb heroin addiction.

Macklemore will be the first rapper in history to involved in presidential message to the nation.

Macklemore, 32, whose real name is Ben Haggerty, has been open about his prescription-drug and alcohol addictions. He was first arrested at 15 and ended up in King County Juvenile Drug Court. He entered rehab in 2008. During the Saturday address, he mentioned his friend Kevin, who died at 21 from an overdose of painkillers.

The hip-hop artist is sober, but his struggle with addiction is an ongoing process, he’s said previously.

Macklemore who became a mainstream success with the hit single "Thrift Shop" was there to discuss the heroin epidemic. The epidemic is spreading across the country and the law can't stop it. He is a Grammy award winning rapper/producer and actor.

“Addiction is like any other disease — it doesn’t discriminate,” Macklemore said during the address. “It doesn’t care what color you are, whether you’re a guy or a girl, rich or poor, whether you live in the inner city, a suburb, or rural America. This doesn’t just happen to other people’s kids or in some other neighborhood. It can happen to any of us.”

Macklemore is “an advocate who’s giving voice to a disease we too often whisper about: the disease of addiction,” Obama said.

A conversation between Obama and Macklemore on opioid addiction — and what can be done to address the problem — will air on MTV this summer.

Heroin and Fentanyl are extremely addictive drugs. My former friend is either dead or surviving on a thread. She was inspiring to be a travel agent and worked a local hotel in Dayton. She quit the job to become a prostitute who sells her body on Backpage. I once had feelings for her and sympathy. I tried to help her by giving her a number to a friend who is a therapist. She refused help and said that she rather "get high and die"!

I gave up on her after she was allegedly dating a local dope pusher. So it's been over five months since I've last talked to her. I don't know if she's still alive.

Heroin (or Boy for street slang) has the White girls and boys going crazy.

White people are addicted to heroin came directly from addiction to pain killers and medication.

It's claimed over 40,000 people's lives a year. And the issue is getting worse. Matter of fact, HIV, the deadly disease is being spread faster through needle sharing and unprotected sex with an alleged user.

Do you know someone who is addicted to pain killers or heroin?

I know a few and I do worry about this.

Diffrent Ways The Media Cover Stories.......

Satirist Faces Ire After Publishing Sexist Cartoon!

This cartoonist wanted to poke fun at First Lady Michelle Obama and Melania Trump, the wife of presumptive Republican nominee Donald J. Trump.

This cartoonist is gaga for Trump. He makes it no secret that he's no fan of President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

He goes all out with a sexist and borderline racist depiction of the first lady looking like a "man".

Check this nonsense out for yourself.


The cartoon was published by Ben Garrison who entitled this piece #MakeTheFirstLadyGreatAgain.

This cartoon gives the impression that the First Lady is a transexaul or a butch. Regardless of this, this is an example of what Republicans think of the First Lady of the United States, who happens to be a Black woman.

A professional Black woman who a mother. A woman went to Princeton and the Harvard Law School to become an educated lawyer is regarded by the sexist, Islamophobic, homophobic racists as a "transexual".

The cartoonist who drew this shit. Ben Garrison claims he's a "One Man Klan".
This is an insult towards Black women, transgender women and White women. To depict Melania Trump only as a beauty model instead of a business mogul is sexist too.

To make the impression that White women are more feminine than Black women is pretty damn racist.

Garrison claims he's a "One Man Klan" on the illustrations. You should see how he depicts Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton.
This is how Ben Garrison depicts Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
He believes political correctness is killing America.

Garrison's cartoon shows the public that Trump isn't supportive of women's rights.

Any thoughts on this controversy?
