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

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.

IT AIN'T A CASE OF 'BLOOD LIBEL', SARAH PALIN LOVES AND NURTURES VIOLENCE?

Icheoku says this woman, admitted she is beautiful and attractive, is practically a beauty and no brains blood-hound. She loves blood so much that if not for her beauty, a  female-Dracula would have been an appropriate gnome genre for her? But regrettably, Sarah Palin is so naive or appears to suffer from so much willful indifference to appreciate why people often link her to violence. 

Alaskan Sarah Palin in defense of her traducers' latest allegation that she somewhat contributed to the Tucson mayhem, categorically denied that she did. She went further to deny that she is a violent person; emphasising that she abhors violence of every form and shape and called the mass-murder the act of one deranged man who should be individually held responsible for his acts.  Icheoku has no contrary evidence to suggest that Sarah Palin caused Jared Loughner to unhinge, but says that words matters. The author of words, whether written or spoken, do not have control on the reach and outcome of such words and must have this in mind while uttering those words. In the classical works 'Julius Caesar', William Shakespeare brought to the world an orator Mark Anthony, whose words swayed a previously well behaved group of mourners into a raging vengeful mob; who killed Cicero the poet in a case of mistaken identity of Cicero the conspirator. Yet Sarah Palin is completely shirking away from any collateral responsibility for what happened in Tucson Arizona, which could have otherwise inhered from her spoken words?  

With Sarah Palin, there is a pattern of violence or rather indifference to them that Icheoku will here now take us through the journey of Sarah Palin on the road of violence? There abound several instances of Sarah Palin's words and actions which could have easily triggered any deranged fanatic down the same road as was traveled by Jared Lee Loughner, the white mass-murderer of Tucson-Arizona. Some of them are also poignant enough as to be conclusive evidence of Sarah Palin's love for blood. 

Without a doubt Alaskan Sarah Palin loves guns and ammunition and prides herself as a hunter extra-ordinary and an NRA great enthusiast numero-uno. Her infatuation and exploits with guns is 'maniacal'; and she personally confessed to her infectious love for guns when she scribbled "I'm the NRA" on her palm as she spoke at the National Rifle Association's Leadership Forum in Charlotte, North Carolina on May 14, 2010. Icheoku is aware that many Americans wondered aloud what it was that Sarah Palin wrote on her palm that she was glancing at during that nationally televised mysterious writing on her palm? It is only a person wowed by an event or thing that will declare in such unabashed fashion, claiming that she is that thing like "I am the NRA?"

Sarah Palin calls her unwed teenage daughter and baby-mama to Levi Johnston, Bristol,  "Bristol the Pistol?" Icheoku asks what kind of non-violent mother would brand her wayward daughter in this way and manner, identifying her with an instrument of violence and blood-letting, yet Sarah Palin hates violence? Calling somebody a 'Pistol' is no joke and if Sarah Palin was not so much in love with guns and ammunition, Icheoku does not think she would have ever given her DWTS daughter a pistol for a name? 


Further America watched as Sarah Palin fired and reloaded rifles in her soon to be rested television reality show "Sarah Palin's Alaska"; and how she also bludgeoned fishes to death, mercilessly hitting them repeatedly on their heads until they lay still just to prepare them for dinner? There were other blood-letting scenes of Alaskan rural living in that her television show; yet the woman who prides herself with "fire and reload" suddenly abhors violence? Sarah, please tell that to the marines as Icheoku and many Americans are not buying this your sanctified definition of self. 


Icheoku says that the numerous wildlife in Alaska have nightmares whenever the name Sarah Palin is mentioned within their ear-shot is incontrovertible. In her living room are taxidermy of bears, giant king crabs as well as Moose etc; and story has it that she killed most if not all of these animals when she visited them in their habitat with her hunting rifles. Icheoku asks how else can an animal be brought down if not through violence? Stories abound of Sarah Palin hunting down foxes, using helicopters and in some cases, directing the wildlife officials to do same; and you wonder if a person who abhors violence would find relish in having animals life violated in this bloody fashion? 


Shoot, "fire and reload" has almost become Sarah Palin's call letters and Icheoku wonders what pleasure a person who abhors violence finds in shooting, firing and reloading? Such fighting words which connotes shoot until you drop and cannot shot no more is by no means evidence of abhorrence of violence but glorifies it as a worthy venture. Guns are made to kill, whether animals or human-beings, and many would agree that anyone who loves guns the way and manner the Alaskan wildlife killer loves them must live and thrive in violence. 


It is also important to call into perspective the bloody turkey gauntlet scene which formed the background as Sarah Palin rattled off on some issues while still governor of Alaska and emphasis that it tells a lot about a woman who have no qualms with blood; yet Sarah Palin claims to hate violence but finds nothing ironical in using as a background scenes featuring turkeys necks being broken? 


Now, instead of taking some 'in-context collateral responsibility' for the tragedy of Tucson, mindful that the lunatic white terrorist Jared Loughner might have taken a page from her book, Sarah Palin was instead busy, cursing everybody that "accused" her or suggested that she may be somehow responsible, even for some scintilla, for the massacre. Sarah Palin also made disparaging racial slur on the Jews, using the term "blood-libel," which still reminds the Jews of their past history when they were accused of allegedly killing babies to exploit their blood for some medicinal research? Admitted Sarah Palin might have used the phrase without comprehending its full ramifications, but hey she now owns it and Icheoku prays that the powerful Jewish lobby groups will remind her of that whenever she decides to run for any future office in the country. It is ironical that a woman this beautiful and attractive have no qualms with goriness; and this is where Icheoku is lost, trying to decode Sarah Palin. Women generally are known to get squeamish at the sight of blood, talk-less of being the ones opening the fountain; but the case is different with Sarah Palin that one wonders if she is differently formulated than other women. But hey, she is Alaskan; and people of that clime are known to be very close to nature and Sarah Palin likes to see red.
