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.

AGAINST SAME SEX MARRIAGE, TRY THIS FOR OPTION!

How about marrying your dog or cat or even a tree, may be an iroko, eucalyptus or oak tree? But in order not to be outdone in the battle of what constitutes an acceptable marriage partner, a Japanese man has gone entirely outside this world of humans to take a wife!
By his action, he has taken the craziness called marriage to another level; having made up his mind that homo-sapiens are troubled species and that he will not fall a prey therein? He journeyed to space and found a wife there, and married her; - he settled for a virtual wife?
Wonders shall never end; but what is marriage after-all if not a union or a yoke which an unhappy society forces down on its membership so that they will have everybody equally yoked in the stress and sadness of trying to live life through the eyes of another! But who have ever seen a comfortable Siamese twins; talk-less of expecting a utopia of a really happily married couple? Anyway, the mental anguish aside, here now is the real deal. Icheoku loves creative minds and this Japanese is a genius as he married without the concomitant bitching and bickering; and the middle of the night wake up lets talk tantrums?
The Japanese gamer known in the virtual world by his e-acronym, 'Sal9000' has tied the knots with a lady he met in cyber-space; - a fantasy wife! He was playing Nintendo DS dating sim 'Love Plus' game when he met and fell in love with a lady-character therein, Nene Anegasaki. He was love-struck by the virtual lady; and decided immediately that his heart has been struck by her proverbial cupid arrow and hence let the marital bliss begin. He proposed to her and bam, a marriage! The wedding ceremony was performed in front of family, friends, relatives and the media who were all very supportive and not judgmental about who their son and friend choose to fall in love and spend the rest of his life with. Icheoku asks, does this e-addict plan to ever consummate such a marriage or did he just want to extend the realm of marriageable partners? Was he deliberately making a statement to those anti same-sex marriage crusaders that everyone should be left to decide who his object of affection should be and permitted to marry same if he/she chooses to? But do you blame him for making such a daring move, somehow meant to raise wow, provoke conversation and possibly give the anti same-sex marriage theocrats a reason to say, "I told you so"; that once the genie is let out of the bottle and same sex people allowed to marry, that no one knows where the stretch of what someone can marry will reach or end.
Call it end times signs, weirdo or whatever you like; but marriage is marriage and anyone can and should be allowed to marry whoever or whatever he chooses is the best and least painful way to be killed! As either way, the stress of being permanently yoked with someone or a thing will quickly facilitate your ultimate exit from this world, like it or not. Crazy thoughts; can call it whatever you like, but Icheoku shoots from the hip. And to the newly wed Sal9000 and Nene Anegasaki, Icheoku says, happy married life of less bickering! Salut.
Now check out the YouTube video of the event, happy viewing:-
