GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

WORD!

A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.

NOW, YOU KNOW.

When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.

JUST THE FACT.

In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle

WORD.

"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.


RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)


ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?

“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

SCOTT ROEDER, ANTI-ABORTION DOMESTIC TERRORIST WALKS AT 102?

Yes he will walk again, a free man, but after 50 years at age 102 years? He is 52 years old now and will spend the next 50 years behind bars without the possibility of parole until the term is fully served. Quoting the sentencing judge, Judge Warren Wilbert, "if Roeder lives past 102, then he gets parole; and will also face a lifetime supervision after release? Icheoku says, what a way to send a message that crass intolerance resulting in the death of another, will not be tolerated and will be punished severely!
Scott Roeder, the Wichita Kansas anti-abortion domestic terrorist, who killed abortion provider, Dr George Tiller, for according to him, being 'babies-killer', was given a sentence of life with possibility of parole only after 50 years! This wily-eyed extremist would readily kill an adult human-being to prevent the evacuation/expulsion of unwanted fetuses from the wombs of women? Icheoku asks, what manner of logic on its head drives these anti-abortion lunatics who have no scruples taking the lives of other human-beings, including a medical doctor but have a strange infatuation to the unborn's life that they are prepared to kill to protect it? If really these people are concerned about the preservation and protection of life, why not the life of everyone and not just fetus-specific? Does it mean then, that to this people, the life of an abortion provider as in this case, is not a life worthy of similar preservation? Icheoku does not get it and would like anyone with a better understanding of the churning of the minds of the Scott Roeders of this world to please come to the rescue and throw some additional light on this? It is akin to the thinking in some Muslim sects that killing unbelievers to sanctify the earth of their unworthy earthly presence is an Allah-pleasing work of mercy?
Gladly enough though, the law is not afraid of nor is it intimidated by the Scott Roeders of this world, as it visits them with the toughest sentences allowable, whenever they are brought before it in chains and orange jump-suits or even undeserving two piece suits? In this case, the book was thrown at Scott Roeder as he got life with the 'Hard 50' sentence, in the first-degree murder of abortion provider Dr. George Tiller! Hurray! Most likely murderer Scott Roeder will never walk again a freeman and will come out of prison, dead as a door-nub; unless some miracle of longevity happens to make him see the magical age of 102 years? But this scenario is very unlikely and highly very improbable for a man with his quantum of rage and aversion to another fellow man? Icheoku is convinced that Scott Roeder will die a caged animal behind prison walls of a self-inflicted injury or a heart-attack, but will never live out his term of 50 years?
Extremism of any kind is dangerous and it does not matter who or for what it is being manifested. Moderation is the key and if you do not like another person or what that other does, use all the foul language you can to curse the person out if you must, but surely nothing warrants or is worth the taking of another's life including that of an abortion provider? Dr. George Tiller never forced any woman under gunpoint to procure an abortion; but was merely providing services to women in need of his medical intervention expertise, including those women who were raped and impregnated by their fathers, armed robbers, and other rapists? Could somebody ask Scott Roeder if he will like his daughter, if he has any, to give birth to a child conceived by through a rapist armed robber molestation or by himself, if he were an incestuous father? Sometimes, medical intervention on pregnancy could be for medical reasons including the health of the mother fetus-carrier, that sometimes makes it imperative that such fetus must be expelled in order to save the life of the host? Moreso, what does this Scott Roeder have against a woman's right to choose or decide what to do with her body and what to carry in it? His is a case of a self-serving closed-minded vermin who wanted to play God and decides for everyone what is allowable or what is not; but in this case bit more than he can chew by taking the life of another human-being! Scott Roeder claimed he is a Christian yet ignored the injunction of 'thou shall not kill' encapsulated in the ten commandment that was handed down to Moses? Yet we blame the Taliban for being so close-minded bigots?
The sentencing phase of the case in Wichita Kansas was very interesting and had its camera moments:- To the prosecutor, Scott Roeder yelled "The blood of babies is on your hands!" The prosecutor later described what Scott Roeder did in the following terms:- ''This was an act of terrorism, an act of brutality. It was abundantly clear this was an individual who chose to follow a path of lawlessness.'' And added, "Scott Roeder has no regrets and neither do I." Icheoku gives it up to this district attorney for bringing it down as it is and telling Scott Roeder to his face, to literally, go to hell? It will be recall that a jury of his peers found Scott Roeder guilty of first-degree murder after only 37 minutes of deliberations on January 29 2010 in the May 2009 killing of Dr. George Tiller in the foyer of a Wichita Kansas Lutheran church. The sentencing judge describing the heinous nature of the crime said, "The shooting in the church is heinous. He didn't kill him in the parking lot, he didn't go early enough to get him going into the church. Scott Roeder choose to kill Tiller in the very place that abhors violence." The rest is now history as barring a successful appeal, Scott Roeder will soon be forgotten in the zoo of prison inmates, somewhere in Kansas, where he will certainly spend the rest of his natural life, kept company by a guilty conscience which will keep asking him, WHY?
