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.

PETER KING, ISLAMIC FUNDAMENTALISM IS NOT THE ONLY FUNDAMENTALISM IN AMERICA?

Icheoku makes bold to state that Islamic fundamentalism or radicalization within the American society is not the only extremism sprouting up in America and for which there should be concern. It is therefore an absurdity, propelled by a seething disdain for those who knock their foreheads on the ground in worship, for Long Island Republican Congressman of New York, Peter King, to so selectively pigeonhole Muslims communities in America as the sole incubator and harbinger of radicalization as well as fundamentalism in America.

Please do not get Icheoku wrong on this matter by interpreting our remarks as a felicitation with Muslims or the figurative sleeping with the enemy; no if Icheoku was in a position of authority during the infamous 9/11, Icheoku would have nuked some place in the Middle East for supplying those airplane bombers. Icheoku knows these guys and what they are capable of doing in the name of their religion and in order to spread it such as the violence they can visit on infidels; so anything they are accused of by Representative Peter King is understandable. However, our position on the ongoing congressional hearing by Peter King is somewhat at odds because it is not all inclusive of all known radicalized groups. Icheoku is of the opinion that such congressional hearing should not be exclusive Muslims, but should encompass other radical elements of the American society that is intolerable of other Americans including such groups as produced the Oklahoma City bomber, Timothy McVeigh; abortion-doctor killers and the Rush Limbaughs of this country whose stock-in-trade is to continuously spread hate-messages against people with different skin-pigmentation. Icheoku says nothing is more radicalized than the daily dosage of asinine messages oozing out of the mouth of Rush Limbaugh and his cohorts, disparaging not only the "Nigger President" occupying "their" White House, but also every other person who seem not to fit the template of their "great American?"

Representative Peter King's hatred for 'THAT ONES' is palpable and Icheoku still remembers his comment concerning Michael Jackson while the rest of the world was mourning his loss. Calling a dead Michael Jackson a pervert is the height of disrespect from a hypocrite who did not see anything wrong with the Irish Republican Army terrorist bombings of yester-years in Northern Ireland. According to this extremist, yes Peter King is an extremist, Michael Jackson "was a pervert, a child molester; and a pedophile. I just think we're too politically correct. No one wants to stand up and say we don't need Michael Jackson. He died, he had some talent, fine. He may have been a good singer, he did some dancing. Bottom line is, would you let your child or grandchild be in the same room with Michael Jackson? What are we glorifying him for?" Icheoku asks what a hate-filled soul would say such uncomplimentary things about an entertainer, whom the world acknowledged as the King of Pop music and this Representative Peter King failed to admit that the allegations of child molestation was not proved by a jury of his peers and that MJ was acquitted of the trumped up charges. A case of willful misinformation and selective dementia by Peter King who settled for lashing out at a dead man. Once again this Long Island Irishman in New York is using the same "not being constrained by political correctness of majority Americans" to attack another disparate group - the American Muslim Community.  A man who would not respect the dead and so brutishly made such uncomplimentary remarks of a world reknowned mega superstar is capable of anything, but Icheoku blames the people of Long Island who continuously send him to Washington as their congressman.

Icheoku says Peter King's house hearing on "The Extent of Radicalization in the American Muslim Community and that Community's Response" is disproportionately skewered against Muslim groups in America who have been singled out as poster-child of extremist behavior in America. It failed to include other radicalized groups such as White Racist Groups who are known trouble makers-in-chief of America as well as some arm of the Black Panters Group who have since become radicalized. The Pat Robertson Group and so many other "Men and Women of God from hell" who preach intolerance were also excluded from the House hearing and one wonders who Peter King is deceiving with his purported house hearing on radicalization. Also Rush Limbaugh and co groups were not included for investigation and Icheoku wonders who else if not them? Fairness demands that equity be observed in such house investigation and being against radicalization, should have been against all manners and forms of radicalization and not just restricted to Islamic radicalization. Or could it be that America is witnessing the rise of another Senator Joe McCarthy of our time; but Icheoku prays that Peter King shall not have his way and that the morality in many of us shall triumph over the warped, ideological-driven antics of a bigoted fellow who happened to be a US congressman called Peter King.

Icheoku says what Representative Peter King is attempting to do with his House hearing is nothing other than the conduct of an Islamophobic hearing and eventual persecution of Muslims in America, based on unfounded allegations and innuendos of Muslims hatred of America? What Peter King is subjecting American Muslim minority to is akin to an inquisition and near perfect copy of the time worn rites of passage which every American minorities of the past were subjected to. Icheoku prays the latest Muslim minority to be discriminated against shall survive Peter King's onslaught and come out of it whole, intact and more audacious. God bless America and God bless American Muslim community so long as they are being Americans and without secret agenda to cause it any harm.
