Jessica Fox, a suburban White woman from Atlanta is one lucky person. If she was a few shades darker, I would bet you money, she would taste the lead of a cop's service weapon.
A routine pullover in Georgia has an officer in the hospital and the suspect in county lockup facing aggravated assault with criminal intent. Marc Lofton, an officer for the Statham Police suffered minor injuries.
She was wanted on driving without a license. She would get into a verbal altercation with the officer before he would try to drag her out the car.
She screams and puts the vehicle in gear and drive off with his hand in the vehicle. As she shook him off, he fell and gashed his head and leg.
He quickly got up and radioed for help.
After brief chase, the suspect was caught. Now she will face a judge and it could put her in the iron college for 10 years. She is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Given the danger the officer was facing, he could have used deadly force. Would her name would have been trending on social media?
Would the conservatives label this woman a thug. Would a conservative concern troll look into her social media page to justify a police shooting?
I assured you that the whole ordeal would have been different if the suspect was a Black male or female.
In the case of many fatal police encounters, usually a White officer is quick to shoot on a Black motorist. We're one year into the shootings of Walter Scott and Sam Dubose.
This week everyone in the junk food media was slamming San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick for refusing to stand for the national anthem. The criticism is fierce and it was furious.
Even Sean "Softball" Hannity was running his mouth about this. He claimed Kaepernick was a Muslim who had ties to "radical Islam".
Kaepernick was getting death threats, the NFL has threatened to cut him from the team, and people were burning his jersey.
The one thing that came to mind, how were our brave men and women of the U.S. military reacting to this controversy?
Well it was mixed. But as of today, the hashtag #VeteransForKaepernick was trending on social media.
Some of the men and women of color who served said that they're proud of Kaepernick for taking such as stance. They said that they're fighting for the freedom of everyone, including those who criticize our country's brutal treatment of people of color.
Here's a few interesting posts from supporters of Kaepernick.
It seems like Colin Kaepernick sparked a movement and not a moment. There will be more, rest assured. Until Congress pass police reform, gun control and acknowledge racism exist, you're going to see more of this.
Flip-Flop: John McCain and Marco Rubio won their Republican primaries.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) survived an insurgency attack. The two failed presidential candidates of 2008 and 2016, respectively have beaten their Republican primary challenger.
Conservatives were mounting a challenge against them.
The most notable is Kelli Ward. The insurgent was getting backing from major conservative groups. It wasn't enough. Donald Trump's last minute endorsement of McCain kind of killed the chances of Ward knocking him out.
In the beginning, Trump said that he loves the veterans, not the ones who were caught. The comment was aimed at McCain. McCain called Trump's supporters a bunch of lunatics. He said failed presidential candidates Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) were wacko birds.
Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) lost his bid for the U.S. Senate. Defeated by Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL) in Democratic primary.
McCain who is dubbed himself as a "maverick" even said that Ward was more of a challenge than J.D. Hayworth, a former lawmaker turned conservative agitator.
Ward slipped by calling McCain old. You know Republicans are old, White and out of touch. A whipper snapper like Ward should have been more careful with attacking an elderly man.
McCain is a Vietnam veteran.
Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) was going to run for the seat but dropped out at the last minute given that Rubio was being coached into running against one of the two ethically challenged Democrats.
Rubio, the least productive lawmaker in the Senate claimed that his consideration into the race was motivated by the Orlando massacre. But actually it's the political expediency of his fellow Republicans leaders that drove him back into the race.
Mind you that Little Marco said he would retire from the senate if he failed to win the presidency. He changed his mind when Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) saw Florida being the firewall between a possible Clinton administration.
Former Democratic chairwoman, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is forgiven by the voters. She beats Tim Conva, a law professor who was endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), the failed Democratic presidential candidate.
Trump's support for Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) came just in time. The House Speaker handily beats his rival in a landslide.
Also the Democrats in Florida seem to like the former DNC chairwoman. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) survived an insurgent attack from the progressive Tim Conva.
Conva who was endorsed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) was hoping to upset an embattled Wasserman Schultz. She was facing harsh criticism over the handling of the DNC's debate schedule and perceived favoritism towards Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Wasserman Schultz resigned from the DNC after Wikileaks illegally obtained the emails of members.
Some of the emails were criticizing Sanders and his supporters for being sore losers and nuisances.
Rubio's challenger will be Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL). Murphy defeated scandal plagued Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL). Grayson and his own wife were defeated in the Democratic primary. Dena Grayson, a medical doctor and activist was defeated in the seat Alan Grayson gave up to run for the senate.
Grayson once again heads back to Florida a defeated man. Now he will be labeled perennial.
By the way, former Texas governor and perennial loser Rick Perry will be on Dancing With The Stars along with disgraced Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte.
Another day in court for troubled pop singer Chris Brown.
Chris Brown is a troubled pop singer. He once again is seeing bars in his future. The LAPD paid him a visit after a woman reported him acting a fool at his home. He grabbed his side piece and pointed it at her head.
He will be charged with assault with a deadly weapon. This charge could land him in the iron college for up to 25 years in the state of California. He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
The call came in at 3am and it had a woman screaming for the law to come to the pop singer's residence. The allegations of the woman is that she saw something shiny and it was dedicate to Brown.
Brown, a notorious hot head got to threatening her and grabbed his glock and shoved it into her breast and head.
The law arrived at the residence. Brown decided to shut the lights off and head to bed. Of course, the law warned him that he better surrender or get dragged out by force.
Brown has been a lighting rod for trouble. His most notable arrest took place in 2009 for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna following a pre-Grammy party.
He pleaded guilty to felony assault and was sentenced that year to five years' in-house, a year-long domestic violence class and six months of community labor. He had issues complying with the terms of probation in that case, but completed that probation in Los Angeles County early last year.
Since then, he has also dealt with a fraud complaint against him in the Philippines last summer for allegedly canceling a New Year's Eve concert and was the subject of a potential battery investigation against a model in Las Vegas in January. She claimed that he hit her and took her cellphone, but police never pursued charges.
Me thinks the victim could be Karrueche Tan, Chris Brown's ex-girlfriend and mother of his daughter Royalty.
Colin Kaepernick's choice to not be politically correct got conservatives outraged.
Conservatives used to get riled up when political correctness was running amuck. They want to be free to call the first Black president a NIGGER. They want to "Make America Great Again". They want to "take their country back".
Hell conservatives don't believe the narratives of "Hands Up Don't Shoot" or "I Can't Breathe".
Now they're outraged when a person of color refuses to use political correctness when it comes to pledging allegiance to his country.
Now they're screaming for him to lose his NFL deal. A freedom of protest and freedom of speech issue runs into the forefront of this ugly campaign between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.
The calls for him to be fired out the cannon are becoming today's fodder. San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick lit a shit storm by refusing to stand for the national anthem. He said that he can't support a flag that continues to oppress Blacks and people of color.
"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."
He is upset over the recent police shootings of unarmed Black people.
Man burns Kaepernick's jersey for click bait.
Colin became the most vocal voice in the NFL to support Black Lives Matter, an activist group that calls for police reform in the Black community.
The group is controversial. Many conservatives dismiss this group as anti-White and anti-cop. The alt-right (white extremists, conservative agitators and Republicans) have tried to brandish this a "hate group". They even tried to infiltrate local BLM groups to instigate violence for click bait.
Former San Francisco 49er Jerry Rice blasted him for his stance. He posted on social media saying that "All lives matter. SO much going on in this world today. Can we all just get along. Colin, I respect your stance but don't disrespect the Flag."
People blasted Rice for bringing up "can we all get along". It was the message of Rodney King, the late civil rights activist who was beaten nearly dead by the Los Angeles County Sheriff Department.
The officers getting off the attempted murder charges sparked the LA Riots.
Even the Republican nominee Donald Trump said that Kaepernick should go to a country that works better for him.
Obviously, he meant continent because Africa is has 54 countries and the ignorant believe Africa is a country.
It's unfortunate that Republicans struggle to win Black voters. Instead of addressing the Black community in a thoughtful and yes rational way, they reignite the very condescending things that make it harder for them to win a crucial voting block.
The Democratic Party has pretty much won the Black vote. The country elected Barack Obama, the first Black president. The Democratic Party nominated twice and the American people elected twice the first African American to ever this title.
Republicans continue to elect old White and extremely conservative candidates for president. They continue this tradition by picking a White old, ignorant, self-serving, narcissistic, billionaire as their nominee.
A nominee who would retweet White extremists postings. A nominee who would pay for a man's court cost after he sucker punched a Black Lives Matter protester. A nominee who would talk about Black plight from the privileged White suburbs. A nominee who support the Second Amendment only when it comes to Whites protecting their homes, property and lives from Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims and liberal activists. A nominee who would pander for votes after making gesturing remark about a NBA player's family member being gunned down by the very Second Amendment rights he is willing to support.
Mark Burns, one of Trump's black supporters.
Yet, the Black support for this nominee is at a measly 4% nationally.
Maybe it's because of the circus of Black Republican performers that clown around.
Diamond and Silk, Jesse Lee Petersom, Katrina Pierson and Wisconsin sheriff David Clarke, Jr., are notable performers in the circus of Black Republican performers. Now a Black preacher will be added to the list of performers.
Donald Trump's Black advisor had to back pedal after he went to social media to post an offensive comic about Hillary Clinton.
Pastor Mark Burns, a Donald Trump supporter quickly deleted this offensive picture from his social media. He got this nonsense from some White extremist named Tony Branco (known as A.F.).
Burns quickly apologized to the people for spreading this image.
Unfortunately, Branco stands by this shit. His website is ripe with offensive caricatures of Clinton, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama.
"Political cartoons are supposed to rile people up, get people talking, have a discussion about issues," said Branco. "It's supposed to focus people's attention on the issue, and that's what the cartoon did. And I'm pretty proud that it did that".
Thank god the president and Clinton have thick skin. They don't really care what people say about them. Donald Trump does. He's so temperamental and an embarrassment to the nation.
The alt-right (the coined term for White extremists) panders in this nonsense.
You must be a supporter of Donald Trump and Mike Pence is you like this cartoonist. You must support them if you think these offensive themes about the first Black president aren't racist. You must support them if deny the reasons to Republicans fail at winning the Black vote.
The entertainment world lost a very talented artist in comedy. The legendary Gene Wilder passed away today in Connecticut at the age of 83. Born Jerome Silberman in Milwaukee,
It was reported that he was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. He kept his conditions secret and retired from acting in 2003.
If you haven't heard of him, you better get to know him. He is most famous for playing Willy Wonka in the movie Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory. It's based off the novel Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. The movie has a strong cult following and it spawned the Willy Wonka Candy Company soon after. Nestle owns the company.
Gene was also in the cult classics The Producers,Young Frankenstein and Blazing Saddles. These critically acclaimed movies were produced by legendary comedian/writer Mel Brooks.
Gene teamed up with Richard Pryor to make Silver Streak, Stir Crazy and See No Evil Hear No Evil.
He was married to famed comedian Gilda Radner. Radner a fellow comedian fell in love with him the moment she saw him on the movie set. They were married briefly.
Radner had suffered from stage IV ovarian cancer. Her doctors would not be able to save her and she died in 1989.
Gene was heartbroken and dedicated his life to charity. He would marry his acting coach who trained him to read lips. Gene played the role of a hearing impaired man in the See No Evil, Hear No Evil movie.
He would later marry Karen Boyer and the two would settle in Connecticut.
Gene was a talented actor, writer, painter and community activist.
Beyonce managed to win the night at the MTV VMA's. Her performance was praised by the fans and the media critics.
She even brought the "Mothers of the Movement" to the VMAs.
Queen Bey walked the red carpet with several of the women featured in the "Lemonade" visual album -- mothers of gun violence victims among them. Midway through the show, Serena Williams introduced Beyoncé for an unexpected performance of several of her "Lemonade" hits. The album scored Beyoncé eight Moon Man trophies -- including Video of the Year for "Formation."
Of course her performance was criticized by that dirtbag Rudy Giuliani.
Giuliani, a former New York City mayor and failed presidential candidate is a resident critic of Jay-Z, and Beyonce. He believes they're pandering anti-White and anti-cop rhetoric.
Giuliani is a former drag queen and three time divorced politico/pundit.
I assure you the talk about Bill Clinton's alleged affairs will be brought up again.
The three time divorced Donald Trump will exploit this. I assure you that alleged domestic abuser Steven Bannon and alleged sexual harasser Roger Ailes will not be mentioned by alleged the sexual harassers on Fox News.
Internet creeper Matt Drudge, three timed divorced sexist old fart Rush Limbaugh and Sean "Softball" Hannity already plan on exploiting it. They will use this a way to tarnish Hillary Clinton.
Clinton campaign aide Huma Abedin is leaving her husband Anthony Weiner, the disgraced Democratic congressman and mayoral candidate.
This comes after allegations of Weiner continuing sexting women online.
“After long painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband,” Huma Abedin said in statement.
“Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what’s best for our son, who is the light of our life. During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy.”
This scandal will become fodder for the right.
When Andrew Breitbart broke the news of Weiner posting his manhood online, the junk food media dismissed it as tabloid gossip. It became public when one of the women who received the pictures had her told the junk food media her encounter with Weiner who went by the name Carlos Danger.
Weiner resigned in a tearful apology to his supporters. It legitimized Breitbart News and gave it a voice in the junk food media.
Weiner would marry Huma Abedin and have a child.
Weiner was trying to regain glory by running for mayor of New York City. He was a strong contender at the time. It nosedived after it was revealed he was still sexting women and having alleged affairs. He was defeated in the Democratic primary by Bill de Blasio.
He would fade out of the political spotlight.
Of course, Weiner became a blogger and pundit and supporter of his wife while she was working for Clinton at the State Department.
Abedin became a target of conservative ire. Her name is mentioned in the email scandal. The never ending email scandal has put Clinton on the defense. It all has ties to the Republican obsession with the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack.
Clinton was not indicted by the feds in wrongdoing. Republicans are stilling trying to charge her with perjury.
Republicans are trying to find ways to defeat Clinton. This distraction will not hurt her, but it will keep conservatives bitching about the Clintons having no family values.
Again what people do in their homes is no one's business. But since we live in this culture of gotcha moments, expect this to be a theme of click bait.
Maine governor hides his bigotry around his Black adopted son.
Paul LePage is a crooked son of a...well you know!
The Maine governor has been in the spotlight for sometime. The Republican is complaining about the lack of federal government funding into curbing the heroin crisis. He decides to single out people of color as the reasons to why the boy is being trafficked into the mostly White state of Maine.
LePage said that "the enemy right now... are people of colour or people of Hispanic origin".
"When you go to war... and the enemy dresses in red and you dress in blue, then you shoot at red," he said.
When a Democratic state lawmaker called him out on his bullshit, LePage called him a cocksucker and challenged him to a duel.
LePage sent the message Thursday morning after a television reporter appeared to suggest that Democratic Rep. Drew Gattine was among several people who had called the governor a racist, which Gattine later denied. The exchange followed remarks the governor made in North Berwick on Wednesday night about the racial makeup of suspects arrested on drug trafficking charges in Maine.
“Mr. Gattine, this is Gov. Paul Richard LePage,” a recording of the governor’s phone message says. “I would like to talk to you about your comments about my being a racist, you cocksucker. I want to talk to you. I want you to prove that I’m a racist. I’ve spent my life helping black people and you little son-of-a-bitch, socialist cocksucker. You … I need you to, just friggin. I want you to record this and make it public because I am after you. Thank you.”
After the voice mail was leaked to the junk food media, LePage shrugged it off and said, I don't give a fuck about what he said.
“When a snot-nosed little guy from Westbrook calls me a racist, now I’d like him to come up here because, tell you right now, I wish it were 1825,” LePage said. “And we would have a duel, that’s how angry I am, and I would not put my gun in the air, I guarantee you, I would not be (Alexander) Hamilton. I would point it right between his eyes, because he is a snot-nosed little runt and he has not done a damn thing since he’s been in this Legislature to help move the state forward.”
LePage is total asshole. He should be called out for his bullshit.
NBA's Dwyane Wade got thrusted into the political campaign. His cousin was murdered and Donald Trump tweets an offensive response to it.
Donald Trump had to walk back a social media posting that came off as condescending and heartless.
His pathetic attempt at courting the Black vote fell at the feet of Chicago Bulls forward Dwyane Wade.
The basketball star's cousin was a victim of senseless violence. Nykea Aldridge, a mother of four was killed when a gunman fired at everyone including his intended target. She was walking with her child in a stroller when the incident occurred.
Trump used social media to pat himself on the back. His tweet which was captured by social media shows the Republican nominee say that he believes Blacks will support him in huge numbers.
Dwyane Wade had criticized the law for being inept. Many in the Chicago P.D. have this angst against the mayor Rahm Emanuel and his new police commissioner Eddie Johnson. Somehow they're doing a "slow down" of services.
Trump tweets condescending message about NBA player's family member being killed.
Since the Laquan McDonald shooting, the Chicago P.D. is under federal watch. The recent shooting of an alleged car thief. The death of Paul O'Neal came into the spotlight. Even with Chicago officers wearing body cameras, it didn't show the moment when they used deadly force against O'Neal.
The rap community isn't spared from the violence. Rhymefest was mugged by a gunman and he tells the junk food media that the Chicago Police aren't willing to do their jobs. They disrespected him.
King Yella was lucky. He was doing a protest video about violence in Chicago. He was shot while filming a music video. Yella was lucky. He said that this nonsense gotta stop.
As Chicago is well on its way to surpass over 500 homicides by gun violence, the Trump campaign will not support gun control. Trump and many concern trolls believe that gun control measures will not solve the problem of gun violence. They seriously believe that the Black community isn't concern about Black on whatever violence.
Victim of an unfortunate death.
Now they've taking up this narrative that violence in the Black community is the fault of President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. After all, many urban centers are ran by Democrats and the feet of terrorism (international or domestic) falls on the feet of the party.
Nearly 3,000 people were shot by firearms in the city of Chicago. The third largest city in the United States has domestic terrorism. Gang violence is equivalent to terrorism.
