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.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.

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

DO YOU?.

“What you believe in can only be defined by what you’re willing to risk for it." - Stuart Scheller.

HEDGE YOUR CRISIS.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.

PROBLEM SOLVED.

'The best way to keep peace is to be ready to destroy evil. If you Pearl Harbor me, I Nagasaki you.' - Ted Nugent.

OUR SHARED HUMANITY.

Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.

WORDS ON MARBLE.

"Birth is agony. Life is hard. Death is cruel." - Japanese pithy.

REPENT OR PERISH - POPE.

Homosexuality is a sin. It is not ordained by God, therefore same sex marriage cannot be blessed by the church - Pope Francis.

CANCEL CULTURE IS CORROSIVE.


FOR SAKE OF COUNTRY.


MAGA LIVES ON: NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER!

TWITTER IS BORING WITHOUT HIS TWEETS. #RestorePresidentTrump'sTwitterHandle.


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.

MIKE TYSON STILL PACKS A PUNCH: BEING IRON MIKE IN A JET BLUE PLANE.

ICHEOKU says he was provoked but it appears that he overreacted and the punches thrown were overly excessive, especially coming from a former world heavyweight boxing champion. He could have easily killed the poor little rascal who taunted him into losing his cool and would have been defending himself now from a possible manslaughter charge. Luckily enough the provocateur lived to see another day, admitted he learnt a bitter ugly lesson on how not to mess with a tiger, particularly a human tiger named Mike Tyson with a clearly marked facial tattoo implicitly warning irritants to stay the heck out of his way. 

One dirty slap on the face or even a punch in the mouth would have been sufficient and enough to register his disapproval of the guy's nuisance. He was minding his own business, sitting quietly on his seat in a Florida Miami bound Jet Blue airplane at San Francisco's SFO airport waiting for takeoff when the lunatic launched into tirades or unwanted disturbances at Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson was therefore right to defend himself but whether his reaction went beyond the initial provocation is a matter to be decided later by the court should the guy bring an action for personal injury against Mike Tyson as he has already declined prosecution for the crime of assault. 

The foolish fella who ventured into a tiger's cage and poked the tiger was either too inebriated to appreciate the danger he walked himself into or he was too young to know the history of Mike Tyson's feats of fury and fists full of thunderous punches. He was too stupid to know that those fists have dropped so many heavy weight boxers within seconds. He also was too stupefied to realize that he was poking the bear and that as Evander Holyfield would attest, that Mike Tyson chopping his ear off inside the plane was also a possibility as well. The guy was completely at fault and it shows that his act was bereft of his mind otherwise which sane fella would have ventured to mess with Iron Mike.

Anyway, his bloodied face now bears testimony to what stupidity can cause a person. Hopefully, he did not suffer any broken facial bones or at least, he has not disclosed that information just yet. The next time the fella wants to mess with someone in an airplane or any other place else, he would pause to think what the repercussions might be, especially if it is someone he does not know their background and whether they are black-belters in karate or other martial arts sports or in the case of Iron Mike Tyson, a former badass world heavyweight boxer whose opponents barely lasted beyond seconds from the opening bell's first round. 

Mike Tyson has delivered a very strong message to all those irascible fellas who often act out on airplanes, especially after drinking more than their liver could comfortably handle. Frequent fights by passengers on airplanes are a very common occurrence flying around in America's airspace. Unlike Samuel Jackson's 'Snakes on Airplane', our airplanes are filled with angry irritable passengers who regularly blow their gaskets, putting everyone on board at risk of harm; and sometimes leading to unplanned delay caused by diversion of such airplanes to get rid of them by handing them over to law enforcement officials. 

Such irritable nuisance should stop. It should be discouraged and stopped, if need be, through self help just as Mike Tyson has shown an example of. His fists flew at the guy's face with such a velocity that only a speed camera would have done justice in capturing them as they rained thunder and brimstone on the poor fella's face. They are still the same fists of fury that once mesmerized boxing fans throughout the world and the nasty fella must have felt their full force as they landed. No sane person messes with a tiger or plays with fire and the fella got burnt. There  will not be a next time for Melvin Townsend III repeat of such idiocy as he now knows never to venture where angels fear to tread.
