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.

DMX'S SUICIDE BY DRUG OVERDOSE: NOT COOL, GETS NO SYMPATHY FROM ICHEOKU.

ICHEOKU says after what happened to Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston and Prince as well as so many other black celebrities in America, that another black celebrity, a hiphop guru, should just end his life in this manner, by reason of another drug overdose, is simply not acceptable. Earl Simmons aka DMX took his own life and as with suicides, does not deserve much sympathy; such is simply a too little too late post incident pretensions. A serious intervention to wean him off his addiction would have been a far better approach than the present wailing because he killed himself and at just 50 years of age. He is now gone and no longer with us; that is sad and it is particularly more painful because it was a death that was otherwise avoidable. 

The worst part of his death, as well as all those who have died in similar circumstance before him is that they were victims of their supposedly inner circle who helped them engage in their drug habit. These celebrities usually surround themselves with only the people who hopelessly cheer them on, who allow and encourage them to indulge in whatever they like including drugs. These hangers-on are fully aware of the eventual deathly destination of these druggie celebrities but being too compromised because of the lucre of their close association, they just egg them on. They see them as cash cows to be milked, without really loving them or caring about what becomes of them as a result of their drug habit. For them it is business and as long as they make money out of them, they could jump off the cliff for all they care.

We have lost enough of them already and all effort going forward should be to prevent further loss of these people. Such action demands tough love and everything possibly within human powers should always be deployed first, proactively, before the camping outside their hospital room windows and praying for the miracle of their recovery from drug overdose ever begins. Such is a solution based grieve and not the after the fact cry me a river superfluousness, as many are not indeed sincerely sad that he died but they have to join the bandwagon of the Jones of the grieving just to participate and be seen as mourning the loss of DMX. 

If DMX had been shot like Tupac and Biggie Small, the world of his fans, including ICHEOKU, would have mourned uncontrollably. If DMX had died in a plane crash or a helicopter crash like Kobe Bryant, he would have received a Kobe like general outpouring of grief. Even if he had died in a car crash or in his sleep, it would have been far much better and easier to absorb. But to die from a voluntarily ingested drug overdose is neither understandable nor acceptable and should be condemned. It is sad.  Now that his enablers have killed him, unto their next victim they will migrate with their fake praise singing and hollering and the cycle goes on. 

Prince Phillip of England, the Duke of Edinburgh and husband of the Queen Eliza of England  just died at 99 years and 10 months old. That is almost 50 years of life more than DMX who died at 50; and you ask yourself what is wrong if DMX had lived for that long and was in a position to have seen his children's children and their children. What is wrong in being a great great grandfather. But no, they got him hooked up on drugs and he got addicted to it; and instead of fiercely intervening by whatever means possible, including shipping him off to some distance desolate land for rehabilitation, where he cannot have any access to his demon choice of drug, they treated them as a big boy who knew what he wanted and what he was doing and a fully grown up man who can make his own decision. 

But these enablers forgot that even an old man can be mentally sick and in some case, too sick to even have the full command of their faculty. Britany Spear is one person ICHEOKU always gives an example of, who beat her own monkey and is still alive, well and enjoying the world. Luckily for her, people who truly love her were present to intervene at whatever cost and they are the only reason Brittany Spear is still alive today and not gone with the wind of drugs since. Whitney Houston told the world on Oprah Winfrey's show that crack is whack, DMX did not listen nor did he hearken to her admonition and crack whacked him. Such a willful suicide, whether accidental or not, does not deserve any sympathy, at least not ICHEOKU's. It is like playing with fire, aware that fire may burn you and then your body catches fire and you are burnt. 

When you willingly start putting stuff right into your nostrils or injecting them intravenously or popping them as pills, fully aware of the associated risks including heart-attack triggering sudden death, who do you blame when you eventually succumbs to its induced death. Sympathy is good when there is no fault or responsibility on the part of the departed, but in this case it is not deserving because it was a self inflicted harm. For a man who populated this world with fifteen human beings, more was expected of him including not to go out of this world in such a  disgraceful manner. He contributed so much to hiphop culture and there were many people he made happy with his music and in other ways but he diminished himself and tarnished his image by overdosing on drugs. 

To some people, his drug addiction was a sickness and to them ICHEOKU says many sickness are curable including drug addiction. It was a habit which he willingly picked up and it is a habit which he could equally have willingly dropped in the same manner he willingly picked it. It was either he refused to part with it or it refused to part with him; but in any case, it was still a doable choice but he succumbed to it rather than kicking it off. His demon won over his spirit. Anyway, may his troubled soul now rest; and to those who loved him as well as the many children he left behind, may God comfort them in this period of their great loss.  Nobody is proud that DMX died from drug overdose, especially his younger children who may be taunted in school as children of a drug addict who died from drug overdose. It is a shame.

THE DUKE IS GONE: REST ON PRINCE PHILLIP.

ICHEOKU says The Duke is finally dead as he was struggling to stay alive for a long time and would have since been gone if not for the miracle of British medical sciences which kept him alive for this long. Even when he was discharged from the hospital recently, ICHEOKU had referred to him as a ghostly apparition who would have been better off if allowed to crossover, instead of expending everything just to sustain his life. Eventually, nature took its course and he can now go and rest. 

He had a wonderful life and passing away at 99 years old, lived a very long live too. He died of natural causes infirmities of old age. He luckily married really up and to a woman who loved him dearly and she is the Queen of England.  Having spent such a long number of years together, she will feel so empty without him. Love is a great thing indeed as the Duke will now go on to live in Her Majesty's heart until such time when she will go to be with him in the world beyond.

But who knows whether his renegade, prodigal grandson Prince Harry will have the temerity to shamelessly attend his funeral after the smear which he caused the royal family. He also did not visit with him when he was in the hospital nor was his present to say his final goodbye to his grandpa before he departed. Anyway, may the soul of Prince Edward, the Duke of Edinburgh, now rest. Our condolence to the Queen and her royal household on the departure of their patriarch. Adieu Duke.

IF ONLY CONSERVATIVES UNDERSTAND THE POWER OF BOYCOTT.

ICHEOKU says does conservatives republicans not know that there is power in boycott or uneducated on how to wield it or even how to mount an effective threat of it. Something which has been perfected into an art by their liberal democrats counterpart. it will definitely give them much more bargaining power and a formidable voice in corporate America and they should seriously consider harnessing it. 

But unfortunately, it seems that only liberal democrats understand the awesome power of products boycott as an effective bargaining tool and they use it to their maximum advantage. The reason corporate America are always at their beck and call and usually bend over backwards to accommodate whatever demand they make in America and/or of and from them; and frequently ignores conservative republicans concerns in matters of national issues. 

Whether the numerically strength go the liberal democrats is more than their conservative republicans, to have given them the edge is somewhat debatable as there is no serious data in support. But if it is not or better still, that the two polar opposites of our political spectrum are equally matched in numbers or that the gap between them is not so wide, why then do companies and corporations defer to them more than they defer to conservative republicans. Why are these companies and corporations so beholden to them and always afraid of losing their patronage such that they react and respond quickly to meet whatever their demand each time they threaten to boycott their products. But these companies and corporations are not similarly afraid of losing conservative republicans' patronage, hence do not react or respond to their own concerns. 

Is it because they know that conservative republicans are too busy with their lives to think about boycotting any company's products? Could it be that these companies know that conservative republicans are incapable of mobilizing and organizing themselves into collectively boycotting a product? Is it because conservative republicans do not have a commanding purchasing power such that these companies can afford to lose their money and still remain viable with only liberal democrats money? Or better still, may be it is the republicanism in these conservative republicans which permits everybody to freely conduct themselves and express their opinions as they see fit. Possibly, these corporations and companies are taking advantage of it, aware that it is not in the nature of conservative republicans to start dictating to people how they should behave or conduct their lives, including what they are allowed to say or do or what products to buy or boycott. 

The companies and corporations have figured out that conservative republicans are not a threat to their bottomline hence they no longer carter to their needs or worry about what they think  anymore. They see liberal democrats as the only threat to their bottomline, hence the need to always pamper them and do whatever they demand in order to please them and prevent losing their portion of their overall profitability. This is a taking of advantage gone too far, that what conservative republicans want no longer matters to America corporate world and the reason they see them as the docile segment of the American society which they should not be afraid of. Why should Major League Baseball move their event out of Atlanta just because liberal democrats complained about Georgia's government effort to fix election fraud. But they ignored the fact that majority of their fans are conservative republicans. 

Imagine if conservative republicans were as active as their liberal democrats in boycotting products and threatening companies and corporations, will these businesses so readily threaten Republican State governments and forcing them to conform or be boycotted? Will they readily bankroll and support such liberal causes that are bent on remaking America in their own liberal utopia image. Will they always fall behind liberal policies and without a care in the world about what the conservative republicans want or desire to see in the America which they inherited from their forebears and which they will like to someday hand off to their children and children's children. But no, conservatives are a conquered or timid group and they cannot do anything to rock their bottomline.

Coca Cola is threatening Georgia and you wonder who consumes majority of their diabetes and heart trouble inducing chemical products if not conservative republicans poor rural Americans mostly in the flyover States. These people are not as health conscious as their city dwelling liberal democrats, who are into healthy living lifestyle, yoga, fitness, running and exercise, weight watching, watching what they eat, calculating how many calories they consume and how many calories they burnt from their Apple smart tech watches and other health.o.meters. Yet Coca Cola panders to them more than the conservatives who binge on junk foods and their diabetes inducing sugary drinks. 

Something is definitely wrong with the picture being painted by corporate America; so conservative republicans must find a way to force a change in their treatment. They must organize themselves into a formidable force to reckon with by learning the art of product boycott in order to gain much eluded respect from corporate America. Imagine the impact which 74 million MAGA strong boycott could make. Enough of tolerating the dismissive shabby treatment and disregard of conservative republicans by corporate America. It is about time they did something about it to awaken corporate America to the fact that they too can bite and that they are not toothless bulldog, admitted they have been sleeping for so long. Boycott is power, learn to use it conservative republicans as you too can do it.

911 CALLS TOO MANY FROM MEGHAN MARKLE AND PRINCE HARRY.

ICHEOKU says all the pretenses notwithstanding, the dam of their facade will very soon bust and the cascading flood will wash up all the past many years of a make belief tale of a happy commoner who married a real life prince. Nine emergency 911 calls for police help all within a few short period of nine months, is not a testament to a happy family life. 

Although the police is not telling whether any of the calls was domestic violence related or only purely security concerns as stated, but is sure do give the tax payers of America who are footing the bill a reason to raise some eyebrow. Just one family putting that many calls to the emergency department is simply calls too many as they are ordinary citizens and should not over burden a public service that so much. If they have issue with their security arrangement, they should fix it by themselves instead of burdening the emergency department paid and maintained by the general public. It is like they have privatized the emergency service and it is now working for them instead of just benefitting them like any other members of the public. 

Whatever may be their issue, thats a lot of 911 calls coming from just one family as they are definitely bleeding the system and overtasking our first responders and law enforcement agents. May be they should start charging them each time they make such a call, especially when nothing was found to be the emergency requiring dispatching first responders to their home. American taxpayers should not be made to foot the bills for their personal security or be forced, albeit by default, to be subsidizing their home and overall general security. Enough of the drain on the system by a drama Queen Meghan Markle and her hostage, the renegade British Prince Harry who she abducted away from his family and now bothering everyone for his and her security. Their security should be the British taxpayers bill to foot and not America's taxpayers burden. No more 911 calls Meghan.

ANOTHER NORTHERN IGP: A TOTAL SNUB OF NDIGBO SOUTHEAST BY MUHAMMADU BUHARI.

ICHEOKU says now that Muhammadu Buhari has made it categorically clear that Ndigbo Southeast has no inheritance in the house of Buhari administration; having incontrovertibly proved himself as an Igbo hating Fulani irredentist, it is time Ndigbo paid him back in his own coin by denouncing him completely as a leprous outcast himself. Ndigbo Southeast should end further cooperation with his administration and maintain that coldness towards him until he serves out his term or dies, which ever one comes first. Muhammadu Buhari has a cold heart of steel and his hatred of Ndigbo Southeast is irredeemably beyond repair, so Ndigbo should stop even trying to make him love them because he is incapable of showing affection for people who are not of his Fulani stork and worse still, Ndigbo Southeast. 

His hatred for Ndigbo did not start today but began in 1966 when some Nigerian army officers carried out a military coup which was later branded an Igbo coup just to wipe out Igbo officers in the military. He was involved in the Nigerian war of attrition against Biafrans which claimed over 3 million Biafran lives principally orchestrated through starvation and attendant diseases. He followed it up with a military coup in December 1983 when he locked up an Igbo Vice President but put the Fulani president in a cozy house arrest. He also refused to support an Igbo man who was vying for Secretary of the then Organization of African Unity and instead saw to the successful election of his fellow contestant, a member of Buhari's Fulani stork from neighboring Niger Republic. And then he became president in 2015 and his hatred for Ndigbo went to stratospherically heights. 

Now, he has completely dashed any hope of making amends for all his past storied anti Ndigbo disposition with his appointment of yet another Northern Inspector General of Police, a position which was expected to go to an Igbo person due to the lopsidedness of his previous appointments which completely marginalized and kept Ndigbo out. He appointed five security chiefs without even one Igbo person among them and in a country where Ndigbo is more than one third of the population. But Ndigbo remained ever optimistic that he will redress the imbalance when he appoints a new Inspector General of Police, which he has now done but still chose another Northerner instead. So, by his latest action he has confirmed beyond every shadow of doubt that he detests Ndigbo and does not want to have anything to do with them or maintain any relationship with them whatsoever. 

He has proved once again that he will take his hatred for Ndigbo to hell when he eventually succumbs to the vagaries of old age. Ndigbo should let him know in unmistakable terms that they have accepted his gauntlet and acknowledge that they now fully understand that there is no love lost between him and Ndigbo. Ndigbo should endeavor to return his hatred back to him in kind as hate cancels hate just like fire quenches fire. He is not useful to Ndigbo and should not be treated with any more respect going forward. He should be completely ignored and scorned throughout the remainder of his term in office and waited out with much derision. There is no more use of respecting or cajoling him as nothing ever productive and beneficial to Ndigbo have come from all the past respects. Even some of his orders should be ignored where possible and welcoming him or any of his agents in the Southeast should be completely tabooed going forward. 

In short, a strong message should be sent to Aso Rock denouncing Muhammadu Buhari's asinine hatred of Ndigbo, a major component part of Nigeria. If he could afford to not recognize Ndigbo as bona fide Nigerians, then Ndigbo should return the favor by also not recognizing him as a bona fide president of Nigeria. He is busy building railway lines to Niger Republic but none for Igbo land; ditto road constructions, refineries and other industries. He has neglected Southeast since he came into office and has completely ostracized Ndigbo from his government; so Ndigbo should ostracize him too from their lives in return favor. Enough of all the love shown to Muhammadu Buhari by Ndigbo which he normally pays back with vile and hatred. He has only two more years to go and Ndigbo have survived him for nearly six years now and will easily survive him for the remaining next two years.

This new Northern IGP appointment is another reason for the hopelessly optimistic Ndigbo who are wishing for a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction in 2023 to be really worried as their expectation might be similarly dashed. It is apparent that Muhammadu Buhari will not in this life hand over power to an Igbo person, having shown the much he hates Ndigbo with such venom. No previous Nigerian president have ever marginalized any group of Nigerians as Ndigbo are are currently being marginalized under Muhammadu Buhari's presidency. A clear testament that nobody wants Ndigbo in Nigeria yet they will not allow them to secede and form their own country, Biafra.  All the marginalization is going on but there is no outcry from other tribes in in Nigeria in condemnation of Ndigbo's fate under Muhammdu Buhari, being so singled out in this manner. 

They see Ndigbo as useful idiots only good for carrying the thankless workload of Nigeria's unity but not good for governance or the headship of any Nigerian security agency. Ndigbo do all the heavy lifting which sustains Nigeria, including carrying the economy, stocking and resupplying various chains of needs, paying largest import duties, VAT and taxes; and also hugely involved in real estate development of Nigeria. But all they get in return for all their contributions to Nigeria sustainability is such maltreatment of marginalization and that they are not good enough to hold real power. ICHEOKU says it is about time the Ndigbo's rejection by Muhammadu Buhari and other Nigerians is reciprocated in kind and let the particles collide of it must. It does not necessarily have to be a shooting hot war, a Cold War will suffice. But enough of the fruitless effort to remain good Nigerians by Ndigbo. #EnoughWIthBuhari

THE WORLD IS UNRAVELLING UNDER JOE BIDEN'S WATCH.


ICHEOKU says under Joe Biden's watch, the world is going to hell in a hand basket and either he does not know what to do about the situation or he has simply surrendered in defeat even before trying. The Tigray region of Ethiopia is being pulverized under ethnic genocide; Iran is back at carrying out its disruptive activities in the Middle East; Nigerian government is cuddling Northern Islamists terrorists while massacring Southern freedom agitators; the Southern border with Mexico is under a barrage of illegal immigrants flooding of America; Northern Ireland is gradually sliding back to its old ways of sectarian violence; Myanmar has been erupting for nearly six weeks now with over 500 people killed so far; North Korea is back to shooting off missiles; China is seriously threatening to invade Taiwan and now Russia is amassing forces along its border with Ukraine preparatory to rolling their tanks into Ukraine and right through to Kiev. But what is Joe Biden's answer to any of these, nothing; not even a strong forceful statement in condemnation to deter these actors. ICHEOKU says this is the new world order which America's anomaly of November 3rd 2020 foist on everyone. It is sad.

TIGER WOODS WALKS AWAY FREE: NOT EVEN A SPEEDING TICKET.

ICHEOKU says accident investigation report has it that Tiger Woods was speeding when he had the accident in California. He was running late to a meeting, but why he failed to see the curvature of the road and/or did not mitigate the situation by slowing down may never be known since his phone was not checked to see if he was distracted by texting to the party he was going to meet to say that he was on his way. 

There was no breath analyzer and his blood was not drawn to see if there were some substances that could have altered his reason. It was also a lone accident and no other vehicle was involved for property damage claim and nobody else was injured as a result. Luckily for TW he committed no crime for which he could be arrested; not even for speeding because no police officer witnessed him speeding and he did not even get a speeding ticket. Interesting development.

DEREK CHAUVIN: ARE PEOPLE EVEN WATCHING THE TRIAL?

ICHEOKU says are people actually watching the trial of Derek Chauvin going on in Minneapolis Minnesota. Just wondering why the liberal television stations are covering it wall to wall and what is the newsworthiness of reliving the nightmare which unfolded before our eyes last summer. Who wants to be reminded once again of the public execution of a black man George Floyd by then police officer Derek Chauvin. We already know the outcome, a conviction, and only the verdict would have been sufficient instead of the barrage coverage.

ASTRAZENECA: A SHAME OF BRITAIN.

ICHEOKU says the failure of AstraZeneca vaccine to excel is indeed a shame to British scientists. A people that used to be a signature of quality and competency but are currently floundering in nearly every aspect of their life due to needless political correctness which has affected nearly everything British. Hopefully, they will be able to fix whatever is jinxing their version of the coronavirus vaccine, but it is a bad new when Britain can no longer be trusted to make good medicine. It is sad. 

PRINCE HARRY CHOSE FAME TO FAMILY - PRINCE WILLIAM.

ICHEOKU says a case where a young man allowed fame and fortune promise of Hollywood to get the better part of him and to the extent of walking away from his family which gave him so much. According to Prince William, Prince Harry has gotten too big for his boots since moving to California and the success have gone to his head. Harry has put fame over family and it is bad.


NEW YORK DOORMEN FIRED FOR NOT AIDING ASIAN WOMAN: IT WAS WRONG.

ICHEOKU says the two doormen do not owe the 65 year old Asian woman, victim of the vicious attack by a deranged man in New York, the duty to come to her aid or to rescue her from her attacker because they did not put her in the jeopardy. They are also not law enforcement agents whose duty is to "protect and serve" the public which would have imposed on them the duty to aid a member of the public in peril and rescue her. 

Therefore, it is wrong for The Brodsky Organization, the owners of building at 360 West 43rd Street, Manhattan, New York City, to fire the doormen who were on duty during the attack for not rushing to the aid and rescue of the victim. The attack took place outside their building, on a public sidewalk, where their duty to open and close doors at 360 West 43rd Street did not extend to. Further, the victim is not a child, whose child status would have otherwise imposed a mandatory duty to rescue a child in danger on the doormen. Lastly, there was no special relationship between the doormen and the victim.

It is in the same New York City Long Island that a doorman, Ralph Body, was fired from his job for being too nice and too accommodating; and was upbraided for going far and beyond his duties in being too kind to tenants and passersby in building 27 at 27th Street. So what if the two doormen were aware of what happened to Ralph Body, afterall they all belong to the same Trade Union and decided to mind their business as they did not want to be similarly fired for being "too nice and too accommodating", this time to a total stranger. What crime did they commit and what wrong did they do in performing their duty, which was to open and close doors at building 360 West 43rd Manhattan New York City, that should warrant their dismissal from their job. Even the police warn the public against self help and not to resist criminals when they strike but to call the police. They also tell bankers that in case of bank robbers to always give them all the money they want and try to stay alive. 

But here in New York City, the owners of a building are now telling us that they expected their employees to become vigilantes and to engage in violent self help being guardians of the surrounding streets and sidewalks near their building; and to physically intervene whenever they see someone in peril around their building. ICHEOKU is emphatic that had the two doormen intervened in the attack, the building management would have still fired them for veering off their duty post to intervene in matters outside their primary responsibility. Had they intervened and the attacker later sued them, would the owners of the building have accepted responsibility that the two doormen were their agents, acting within their authorized duty or quickly denied their action as a frolic and therefore not vicariously liable for it. 

What if the accused attacker had a concealed weapon, afterall he murdered his own biological mother, went to prison for 12 years before being paroled, and then visited the vicious attack on the victim. What if in the course of their intervention the attacker had killed the two doormen or injured them or the doormen had even killed or injured the attacker, whose responsibility will that be? Would the management not have blamed them for courting their fate by going outside their prescribed duty to intervene in a matter which does not concern them nor their job as doormen. 

The doormen did exactly what was reasonably expected of them to do in the circumstance: they immediately called 911, rushed out to help the victim and flagged down a passing police patrol vehicle to report the attack and also waited to give statements while the emergency vehicle arrived and took the victim to the hospital. This is exactly what doing something by the book which was expected of them really looks like and they should not have been fired for doing right by the woman and their employers as it was not their responsibility to fight off the attacker. 

Even in carjacking situation, the police advise against resisting or fighting the car jacker, so why should this case be any different or was it because the victim is Asian and belongs to the class of protected endangered species of America who everybody must aid in situations as this. What other thing could possibly justify the unreasonable expectations placed on the doormen that led to their firing if not some peculiar consideration due to the current political atmosphere in America where Asians are being accorded some special protection. 

In fact it is the two doormen that are actually being victimized in this matter and their Trade Union must not put up with it. They should proceed to the court immediately and have the management company reinstate the their two members back to their duty post. They did nothing wrong and there is nothing in what they did to warrant or justify their firing. They should not be singled out and punished for what a mad man did on the street side walk outside their area of authority. No rational person watching how viciously that huge beastly man attacked the woman would voluntarily put themselves in harms way by intervening in the attack. The attacker is massive and his history, although not known at the time of the attack, adds impetus to why no rational person would have intervened. If he had the heart to do that to a woman, after killing his own mother, imagine what he could possibly do to others including two intervening doormen. 

There was no other emergency protocol in the circumstance which they failed to observe, short of what they did and they also locked their building to protect their tenants from possible harm. The Brodsky Organization was wrong in firing the two doormen and they should get their jobs back and in any other event, be paid handsomely for wrongful termination of employment. Where there is no duty owed to an individual there is no expectation of help or intervention to save the individual from danger or harm. Therefore the two doormen were not wrong in failing to fight off the attacker of the Asian woman in front of their building. It may be morally wrong or somewhat viewed as a breach of Good Samaritan aiding a victim, but that only applies when an aiding bystander puts the victim in more harm. Also, it was not as if the victim sought shelter in their building and they pushed her away and into her peril. They were innocent observers of a crime and that should not cost them their jobs. 

ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FROM THE SOUTHERN BORDER: WHY THEY COME.

ICHEOKU says they come become America wants them here and Joe Biden gave them the incentive of being welcomed and never sent back. Meanwhile American fathers are having their wages garnished for child support and those who refused to pay are sometimes sent to prison. But in Mexico and other Latin American countries, their men are busy making babies and shipping them across the southern border into America, where they are taken care of with American tax payers money, including a lot from American men. So it is ok to be a debit dad in Mexico and other Latin American countries but not ok in America. 

What a warped sense of duty to country this is. Just in case you are still wondering why the dam of illegal immigration has burst at the southern border, note that it is because it is good to be free of obligations. It is cheaper to pay a coyote $5,000 bucks to take their child to America than to train them for 18 long years. As a result, those men in the Southern hemisphere are well incentivized to continue the flooding of their children into America. It is simple mathematics and economics, they are exact science and science don't lie. Until the government starts sending everyone back to their originating countries or their fathers traced and made to pay for their upkeep in America, the crisis at the southern border will only get worse. Now you know why they come.

BEAUTIFUL THINGS BY HUNTER BIDEN: A MEMOIR OF A CRACKHEAD.

ICHEOKU says the book should have been titled "Hunter Biden: the diary of a crackhead", but ironically it was titled "Beautiful Things: a memory of Hunter Biden". ICHEOKU says what could possibly be beautiful about the life of a crackhead who was sleeping with his dead brother's wife while married to his now divorced wife; and who binged on the white stuff to the point of stupor. ICHEOKU says will not waste either time or money on the book and so should every person who strongly believed that Hunter Biden got away with so many things simply because of who his father is. Please do not aid his reckless behavior as your money used in paying for the book might aid his drug addiction. 

SOUTHERN BORDER CRISIS: AMERICA'S CHILDREN NEW ENDANGERED SPECIES.

ICHEOKU says it is a racket and not a crisis, admitted the later is a much better sounding word to help mask the underlying scheme and give it a semblance of a work in progress. America's own children are daily being slaughtered in abortion mills throughout the country and many teenagers are equally being killed on the streets of America through gun violence. Every year about 300,000 fetuses are aborted in America and more than twenty thousand youths are killed through gun violence. Then add the fact that many American women are no longer interested in having children as dogs are now the new children as real children are too much work. All these are taking serious toll on America's socio-political equilibrium and if the population is not constantly resupplied through some other channels, it will eventually result in a devastating crisis of instability, inability to support the aging population as well as the maintenance of economic activities. 

To help solve this problem, America has looked at its southern border and have decided to use Latin American youths as a boost for its internally depleting population. This is the reason the Southern border illegal immigration will never be solved as it is beneficial to America in so many ways. It helps support the army of immigration lawyers who depend on illegal immigration largely to sustain their practice and survive. It helps with industries and agricultural industry in particular as they provide cheap labor, both farm hands and meat processing and packaging hands which must be paid low wages in order for their produce to stay competitively priced. It also helps in the aged care throughout nursing homes and care facilities in America. It also helps with the military recruiting as some illegal immigrants seek to legalize their stay through serving in the military. And of course, Uncle Sam has to be sustained, which many more people paying taxes help to do. Seventeen and eighteen year olds are considered children for this purposes, catch them young, reorientate and Americanize them and then exploit their youthfulness. What a racket.

So, it is not for lack of solution that the Southern border still remains porous; no, it is intentionally designed that way as a tributary which supplies the river. Whenever American people complain, politicians and all those benefiting from the way things are will rush to the microphones to pretend to be doing something about it until the media attention goes away and it is back to business as usual. This is why children from Mexico and other Latin American countries are constantly flowing in through the southern border, to fill up the vacuum created by the unavailability of American children. It is not because the problem is intractable or unsolvable or that the border cannot be completely shutdown if they want. It is a racket which must be kept open in order to help keep a lid on so many aspects of America in order to prevent them from unraveling by boiling over into a catastrophic crisis of immense magnitude. 

The irony of the whole nonsense is that it is the same pro abortion activists who are against American women having children and preventing American babies from being born alive in America that are spearheading the charge to allow "innocent little children" to come in through the southern border. What an irony, being fro killing American babies and also being advocates for Mexican and South American children's lives and wellbeing at the same time. They complain that it is inhumane to keep the illegal immigrants' children out of America, but it seems that the killing of American children does not meet their very constricted definition of "inhumane". They want to let all those "foreign" children from the southern border into America, but they will not even allow American children to be born alive and let into the world. America's children have become an endangered species and needs to be protected from this two killer viruses decimating their population.

It is sickening and only a warped, ideological mindset could sustain such controverted position. It is irreconcilable, incredible and incredulous that these lunatics love other people's children more than they love their own children.. What a psychotic disorder. The same people would readily prosecute American fathers for child support, garnish their wages to enforce compliance and when such fathers become too recalcitrant and refuse to pay, they may end up being jailed. Meanwhile all those Latin American and Mexican fathers of those illegal immigrant children are busy just making babies and shifting the responsibilities for their general upkeep including education and medical care to American tax payers, majority of who are American male. The same American male that will be forced at the penalty of loss wages and jail time not to shirk responsibility for their children. Something needs to be done about the scandal at the Southern border as the compassionate narrative is but mere hot air meant to beguile people, both in America and the supplier Latin America countries.

PARADE OF ANCIENT MUMMIES: WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE EGYPTIANS?

ICHEOKU says just wondering if disturbing of ancient burial grounds and digging up mummified pharaohs, princes, princesses as well accomplished men and women of ancient Egypt is the best way the Egyptian government can spend their resources, the yawning needs of their society considered. For a country which heavily depends on the United States for financial aid and which have so many impoverished people living in their society who are suffering from acute and chronic poverty, it is a misplaced priority, spending so much digging up and parading ancient mummies. The tourism and historical dimension argument in support for such, notwithstanding, such ancient burial grounds should be respected as sacred hallowed places and those entombed therein should be left to enjoy their old world in peace. 
They had lived their lives and in their time and it should have been better to let them be where they belong, in the historical past. There is no need for the unwarranted mixing of civilizations by forcibly unearthing thousands of years old buried mummies and putting them up for display just to satiate the cravings of an ogling new world. Simply put, it is not the best practice and Egyptians should have improvised whatever they desired to display in their museums and left the originals where they were. Even Mona Lisa has thousands of its duplicates floating around the world while the original Mona Lisa is hidden somewhere, although some people wants the world to believe that it is at The Louvres. Why disturb ancient people from their resting places otherwise why were they placed there in the first place if not to be left alone and in peace.
The living has their own life to live and should focus on it and leave the past, which once lived, where they are and exactly where they belong, in the ancient world. But this desecration of things which should otherwise be left holy appears to be the curse of Africa where ancestors are not allowed to rest in peace such as what Egypt is doing with the complete devastation of their storied historical past. What use is it anyway digging up these ancient people who were long entombed. It is cheapening what once loomed large and thus demystifying them. What else do they want to prove by the continuing violation of the sanctity of these ancient burials or have they seen any other culture including the Incas, the Mayans, the Aztecs, Europeans, Japanese, Chinese and the British people doing the same havoc to their own ancestors. 
Unfortunately, it is only Egypt that engages in this macabre practice which does not show any respect for its sacred burial places and ancestors. Rome has never dug up any of its emperors;  the British people never dug up their Kings nor their poet of renown William Shakespeare; American Indians will go to war if anybody disturbs their ancient burial grounds or their buried ancestors; Hawaiians constantly demand for the reburial of any of their excavated ancestors. All these cultures could similarly attract ogling tourists to feast on the remains of their ancestors if excavated, but they still do not engage in such practices, so why the Egyptians?  It is also bad clinging so much to the past as it makes it impossible for Egypt to grab the future firmly with both hands and it translates to the stagnation of a culture that gave the world so many firsts, including paper, irrigation and writing. 
ICHEOKU says it is about time Egypt ended the violence which they are doing to their ancient civilizationt and  avoid the curse which customarily comes with disrespecting the dead. It is sad to trivialize such historical figures, rulers and royals who held sway in ancient Egypt, in the manner Egypt is doing. They are not objects nor do they have monetary value to warrant parading them or putting them up as exhibits. These were African royals and what could not be done when they walked the earth should not be tolerated now, no matter the guise or form. They were respected then and their awe should continue to be a guard against such disturbing of their resting burial tombs. How can they rest in peace when they are being dug up in this manner and paraded like common objects. Everything should not have a dollar sign or amount affixed to it. Where is African's dignity or is Africa forever cursed? Put an end to the damn thing oh Egyptians.
