From the moment I heard they were making the movie 42, I knew I had to go see it. It was about subject matters very near and dear to my heart; Civil rights, politics, Jackie Robinson, the Brooklyn Dodgers and my hometown Brooklyn. I had grand plans to wear my number 42 Brooklyn Dodgers jersey to the theater. Well suffice it to say that when it came and went, I was severely disappointed in myself that I had missed it. It just seemed that there was always something or the other preventing me from supporting this movie at the box office.

The Gun Myth
I fully support the 2nd Amendment... But if angels descended from the heavens and offered to destroy all guns and all gun manufacturing capabilities forever, no matter how well they were hidden... I would be all for it. Not positive about that... But I'm pretty sure I would. However, being that will never happen, I'm forced to contend with the idea that a ban on guns is not only a bad idea, but it also will not stop firearm atrocities.

Terrorist???
3 weeks ago a 75 year old PAKISTANI MAN WAS BRUTALLY MURDERED in BIRMINGHAM by a WHITE MAN with a machete while he was walking home one evening from the Mosque, the press reported this as an "UNPROVOKED ATTACK" & there were no headlines about the man having a "CHRISTIAN APPEARANCE or it being a terrorist attack, why is it then when BROWN PEOPLE HAVE KILLED A WHITE PERSON IT IS CALLED A "TERRORIST" attack by a Muslim APPEARANCE??
THIS HAS NOTHING GOT TO DO WITH RELIGION - NOTHING - RELIGIONS SHOULD NEVER BE INVOLVED - NOT ALL MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS, HINDUS, SIKHS are the same or of any other religion!

An Open Letter to Michelle Obama: Beyonce is Not a Role Model.
By Rakhi Kumar
Dear Michelle Obama,
I'm addressing this to you because I admire you. Because you're smart and a mum to two young girls. And you're the First Lady of the USA. And because you were recently quoted as saying that Beyonce is a great 'role model' to your two daughters, and because you recently tweeted, after the Superbowl, that you were 'so proud' of her.

LL Fool J
My disdain for LL started decades ago. I think he was the first TRUE sellout hip hop (minstrel) artist. I respect his legacy and I respect his accomplishments but I have close to zero respect for him as a (black) man.After reading this and watching the video... What little shreds of respect I had, are out the window. This is one of the worst examples of Tomming it up for the white folks I have ever seen. As if this fool had my permission to speak for my (the black) community... A community he has not REALLY even been a part of or an active participant in for decades, to excuse anything FOR US??? I actually tolerate where the WHITE guy is coming from more than him (not that I really truly feel or get his point either) and that is some sad ass shit yo!!!
Robert E Lee R-I-P my fucking ass!!!
Zero respect for LL Fool J

The Spirit of the Law
I often wonder where things went wrong in this country. How
things got THIS screwy? I count myself among the minority that realizes that
while America might be 237 years old... We have only been a superpower for 70,
maybe 80 years. And being a student of history, I realize how uncivilized we
were not so long ago. Conversely I also know that no matter how savage and
dysfunctional our nation has been in the past (see slavery, woman’s suffrage, Native
Americans, Jim Crow, etc…), there has always been a constant steady state of progress.
Conditions have ALWAYS improved, for EVERYONE, each generation. No matter how
totally fucked up society was at that moment, you were still better off than you
were 20 years earlier, better off than your parents and they better than theirs, etc...

Guns Don't Kill, People Kill
Guns don’t kill people… Names do. A few weeks ago Hurricane
Sandy killed 110+ people… Now Sandy Hook Elementary School has 20+ dead. We
can’t blame the guns, because there is no way to link guns to murder, but
clearly anyone can see that the name Sandy connects all these deaths. I
move to create a petition to ban the name Sandy henceforth.

Question EVERYTHING!!!
I love George Carlin… He is the funniest comic that ever
made me think. I mean really, really think. And this quote is no exception. No
other comic has ever made me look inside myself and examine, re-evaluate and
take inventory of my mental stock. Carlin made me look at the world through
different eyes.

The "War On Drugs"
I am of the belief that we should have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness even if that pursuit is of self destruction. That leaves me to naturally lean toward legalization of all drugs.
