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.

#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.

$50 MILLION MEDICAL CARE COST, IS ANY LIFE WORTH THAT TO SAVE?

Icheoku says we do not know about you but sincerely speaking, no life is worth fifty million dollars to save; moreso since the victim is not Bill Gates or Steve Jobs or Warren Buffet whose presence in this world is tremendously very effective and productive as to worth every dime spent to prolong it. Call Icheoku callous, uncaring and/or unfeeling, but reality check speaking, this man's life is not that important to warrant such outrageous amount to save or try to save. 

Icheoku says were the victim a blackman or any other minority classed American, the plugs of life would have since been pulled; but at last, he has the right skin pigmentation and there is a deep pocket to be mined. Even Israeli Ariel Sharon, the longest artificial life sustained hospital patient in the world did a lot for the state of Israel to deserve his continuous artificial sustenance while in coma; but not an EMT staffer. If he is not brain-dead yet and all his motors are functioning, what are the prognosis of a long term full recovery to warrant this amount of hospital care? Icheoku simply does not get it; moreso under this very dire economic climate in the country. If he cannot recover, the family should seriously consider allowing him some dignified exit and discourage this outrageous medical care cost being prospected by his lawyers. 

Further, no one knows if the victim has a medical insurance or is part of the group of millions of uninsured Americans who were advised never to get sick and if, to die quickly? Anyway, Icheoku has no dog in this fight and the medical cost care might as well be one hundred million dollars for all we care; but we state for the record that no life including Bryan Stow's life is worth wasting $50 million on to save or trying to save. As you would recall, Bryan is a San Francisco Giants fan who travelled to Los Angeles to see a game between his team and the LA Dodgers, only to be beaten into coma by some out of control Dodger's fans. However, the pathetic nature of this unfortunate incident notwithstanding, Icheoku reiterates that $50 million medical care cost is not economically a smart decision sure to make just to save a life and it is sure to go into the Guinness Book of Records as the most expensive ever spent on just one person's life.

  1. Do you even know what EMT's do? They save lives. That's their entire function. What makes you say he's done nothing? How does that israeli woman have any particular value? Political or propaganda value does not equal life value.

    As far as being a minority is concerned, you're an idiot shit liar.

    Every state is different with different laws. A black woman in Memphis gave birth to a baby with enancephaly - that means it did not have a BRAIN. Babies born this way are incompatible to life, they cannot breath and have no 'suckling' instinct to feed. They are also blind, deaf, impervious to pain (cannot feel) smell or taste and have no self awareness. They are nothing but a bag of blood. Even their heart will not continue to pump, their lungs will not breath without outside assistance - because there is no brain, not even the animal reptile part that allows us to breath without thinking.
    She insisted the baby be kept alive on life support and feeding tubes, she did not have insurance, it cost millions of dollars and by 2 years of age the baby died anyway from complete organ failure. Even WITH life support their organs will fail because the body does not function, without a brain there are no regulating body hormones like cortisol-regulates blood pressure, and many other chemical hormones the brain creates for life to function.

    Her baby was not 'pulled plug' because she was a minority.

    Stop printing your bullshit.

    By the way - what 'minority' groups life in Nigeria? None? At least America has a variety of different races of people, I find it disgusting that people who live in almost completely single race countries feel like they know anything about what goes on elsewhere or even have a right to say anything, when they themselves don't even have any racial diversity.

  2. P.S. countries have paid more for that in a total of pirate ransom to Somalians, payment ransoms to islamic terrorists and 'blood money' paid by families of murderers in islamic countries to victim families in return for releasing their killer family member from execution order.

    What's the difference?

    As far as that goes, if there is really a 50 million dollar price tag on the medical care of this man, don't say his life isn't worth it, say that the American Medical care of the USA is insane and that the prices they are charging are wrong, corrupt, should be illegal, and they only reason the costs are adding up to so much is because they are lying and overcharging just because they can. There is NO WAY that ANY treatment costs that much. Even organ transplants and bone marrow transplants cost under 1 million dollars. Somebody is making bogus charges just to get money.

    As an EMT, he is guaranteed to have life insurance as part of his job compensation, therefore, as far as I'm concerned they can suck the shit insurance companies DRY. Insurance companies constantly come up with reasons not to pay for treatment and fight people in court until it is too late for them even to be treated. OR they refuse treatment that would extend a life by 10 years, because they say they will only pay for treatment guaranteed, for example, to put cancer into full remission - which is an impossible guarantee. a 28 year old mother of 3 was 'sentenced to death' by an insurance company who refused cancer treatments for that reason. Her cancer was hard to totally cure, but her life could have been greatly extended so that she could raise her kids. Instead, nothing.

    By the way, you know Steve Jobs is dead, right?

    P.S. Fuck Warren Buffet and all the rich bitches on earth. Their lives have no more value than yours or mine. This man has saved more lives and done more for humanity than those shit bastards ever did.
