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.

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.

KYLE RITTENHOUSE WILL WALK: SELF DEFENSE WILL COME TO HIS AID.

ICHEOKU says that video of him sitting on the pavement and looking up helplessly as those mob rushed at him, coupled with his innocent, cherub-like, baby face, as well as his overall cool demeanor will influence many jurors into voting for his acquittal. He is young, smart and most likely sincerely and honestly believed that his country was under attack by the BLM and ANTIFA anarchists and decided to do something about it, in defense of people, his fatherland and beloved country. 

He was a selfless volunteer for the good of Americans in Kenosha as there was nobody who saw the destructions going on in summer 2019 on American televisions who did not wish that something was done about it. He therefore deserves our show of gratitude and should be thanked for at least standing up and doing something about the situation when many stood helpless akimbo and merely wishing that something could be done by somebody to put an end to the unfolding madness. Kyle Rittenhouse decided to become that somebody and did something about the situation; and his action helped put out the BLM and ANTIFA fire which was consuming the nation during the ugly summer of 2019. 

Why punish such a people's hero, a Captain America, when OJ Simpson walked? Kyle deserves our understanding not condemnation as he did not set out to kill anyone that night. He was holding his rifle the right way, pointed down; which showed that he was not on a head-hunt when he left his place, but was merely, defensively, walking around to help protect the neighborhood. Although, it is the police who keeps the peace of the public, but they were overwhelmed and outnumbered and completely outstretched that night in Kenosha that they could use any help which they could find; and Kyle Rittenhouse volunteered to help them secure the neighborhood. He answered the call and voluntarily went to help Americans protect their dwelling abodes and businesses from a ravaging BLM and ANTIFA anarchists. 

He is also very matured for his young age of 18, very confident, self assured and well behaved. That he took the stand is also a measure of his character. He looks trustworthy and believable; and there is every likelihood that he will be acquitted of all the charges. Hopefully his defense team will ask the jurors in his closing statement a simple rhetoric question: if there is any one of them who witnessed what happened in that ill fated summer 2019 who did not wish that it did not happen; and wished that something was done about it. Also, if there is any of them who saw Kyle Rittenhouse forced down on the pavement by his pursuing attackers and seeing his life in imminent danger, who wouldn't react as he reacted in order to starve off the threat? 

He had no intent to kill anyone but only acted in an exigent situation to protect himself and save himself from imminent bodily harm and danger to his life. It was in self defense and he should therefore be found not guilty, completely acquitted of all charges. LeBron James was wrong as different people emote differently and white people often internalize their emotions. They are not given to outward expression of their hurt feelings by publicly shedding of tears. Kyle couldn't hold it back any longer and tried to still suppress it, regardless. But his emotions is not the key, admitted it will help humanize him as not a monster. The key is the overwhelming evidence of his acting in self defense faced with imminent danger to his life and bodily harm; that is where the not guilty verdict will be anchored by the jury. #AcquitKyle.
