For every Antoine Dodson telling folks to “hide yo kids, hide yo wife…” and Sweet Brown saying “oh lord Jesus there a fire” on the local news somewhere down south, there are dozens of these that never get autotune remixes.
Why not make a nice country tune from this incident?
And why isn’t her car riddled with bullet holes?
Hmmmmmmmm
“Yo ass gon’ t-jail!”
I read about this yesterday. I saw the entire video too.
I had basic training with people like this 8 years ago. I won’t ever let this kind of rubbish ever happen to me again. I have cut people out of my life who were close to me without a care for things like this. I’m much more cold than I ever thought I could be. Yeah…cold blooded. I wouldn’t think twice about cutting someone off who was acting like this. Especially if I didn’t even know them.
I would have handled this situation like the driver, but would have stopped trying to be rational with the passenger. I would have gotten out and called the cops as soon as the screaming started.
I see this kind of madness coming from a million miles away. It’s really easy to spot for me. I avoid it now.
Nah bruh… ain’t nobody got time for this.
No me at least.
Good riddance. Hey lady, get a subway token and visit your boyfriend on our wonderful clean, subway that can get you everywhere you need to go.
The young Bronx woman who threatened to call police and falsely accuse an Uber driver of rape has been banned from the app for life, a spokesperson says.
Dash-cam footage, which was posted online this week, showed the female passenger furiously accosting the male driver for nearly 9 minutes — even going so far as to say “Donald Trump going to send you and your family back [to your country].”
“The behavior in this video is abusive and completely unacceptable,” an Uber spokesperson said in a statement.

Even Tucker Carlson doesn’t buy your GOP bullsh*t….and I can’t STAND Tucker.
All of these guys are frauds…total frauds:
Watch this. Just watch this and let me know if your blood doesn’t start to boil.
Their job is to “enforce the law” – better known as “arrest as many people as they can so they look good.”
You job is to say as little as possible.
Theirs is to get you to say as much as possible.
By the way, watch how they surround him like they are about to wrestle him to the ground and put him in a choke hold like Eric Garner.
And you wonder why we feel the way we do about law enforcement.

Yeah….
There are plenty of videos showing how stupid liberal college kids are. Well, it’s your turn to look just as dumb.
Congrats to you fools. These are the people who voted in that idiot who is now president.
Good luck when the GOP gets rid of that Obamacare thing (and your beloved Affordable Care Act) at the same time!
You suckers!
Waking up at the crack of dawn sucks. It just does. Well, it does for me.
I’ve never been a morning person. I never will be. I like to get up at about 9 or 10AM. Well, that’s just not the life I’ve chosen to live.
You see, I get up so early for a reason.
I usually arrive home from work at 11PM. I’m totally wired and wide awake. I eventually wind down so I can get to sleep at around 1AM. My alarm goes off in the morning, but I snooze for a few more minutes before I jump out of bed. I try to shake the cobwebs out of my brain and think of where I parked my car so I can go pick up my kids.
I drive over to my ex-wife’s house and get my kids at 7:15AM. We spend about 45 minutes to an hour getting to school. There are mornings where we just listen to the radio. We sometimes laugh about stories from the previous day or if we see something silly on the way. When a serious event happens in our country, we might have a brief thought provoking discussion. When I see the opportunity, I let my kids know about some cold hard truths about growing up in America. They soak it all up like sponges. In the end, I have that special time with just me and my kids. It’s time well spent.
I get the balance of my sleep some time during the day by taking naps if I’m not working. I ain’t afraid to admit, I LOVE naps. Later in the day, I pick them up from school and we spend the afternoon together at my place until I bring them to their mom’s house after I cook them dinner.
It’s exhausting, but totally worth every hour I miss of sleep during the night.
Why do I do this to myself? Well, I asked this question this morning when I got out of bed. As soon as I thought of that question, I got my answer.
It’s because I love them. I really do.
After 14 years of fatherhood, nothing has changed. I’ve been there since the beginning. I’m glad I saw every little step my kids have taken over the years and witnessed every little development along the way. Our time is very limited on this planet and I am making sure I spend as much of it as I possibly can with my kids before they are adults and off on their own.
I wasn’t going to allow any silly “family court” system to keep me away from this. I’ll lose all kinds of sleep but I won’t lose out on being a father. That’s just not going to happen. I made sure of that.
Fathers….
We love our kids as much as mothers. We care too. We want to be there as much as we can even though we may be tired, working long hours, traveling, busting our ass to get a promotion or more money or any other thing that might keep us temporarily separate.
Dads…
We are not the babysitter. We are the guidance the protection, the focus, the spiritual uplift, the support system, the provider, the backbone, the rock, the stability, the L-O-V-E.
I heard about this artist and song today after chatting with a colleague of mine named Felton Offard on Facebook. (he’s an amazing guitarists by the way). He hipped me to this guy Sho Baraka. Sho has a great new album out called ” The Narrative.”
I think this is right on point:
I learned that love ain’t based on performance
Make a mistake and I will love you in the morning
I see life in my children’s eyes
And when I’m wrong I’ll be the first to apologize
Peace to all my fathers who are working through their flaws
Fulfilling their duties and they don’t do it for applause
It’s true, any fool with a tool can reproduce
But a father is that dude that’ll see it through
Forget the stereotypes lets be clear
There are good men out there we are here……………..
How do you spell dad?
It goes L-O-V-E
How do you spell dad?
It goes L-O-V-E
How do you spell dad?
Ummm yeah but…..
Joy is also passed down from father to son too. My father had a lot of joy and I certainly pass it on to my son (and daughter). My father was/is a MAN. He was there for me and my sisters and still is.
Some of you may know, my horrific divorce from my ex-wife, who still seems hell bent on trying to damage my relationship with our kids, couldn’t stop me from being the father I wanted to be. That whole process of “family” court made me into the man I am today. It made me stronger, more committed to my kids and more passionate for life in general.
There are times where I get sooooo angry with the commands to “be a man.”
Well dammit, maybe if the mother bias in the family court system could finally be destroyed forever, the archaic child support model could be updated to reflect 21st-century America, our prison system could stop making a profit from locking up so many low income/low resource men, the ability for men to provide proudly for our families could return, issues like men’s issue like suicide/depression/drug addiction and mental health issues could be properly supported….maybe then, we can be the men that son many of you want badly.
I love me some Denzel but I get tired of having so many things being ignored

Around the county college students are silencing speakers in the name of safe spaces. Filmmaker Rob Montz visits his alma mater of Brown University to find out what happened to free speech and debate on campus in We the Internet’s first mini documentary. Do you think free speech will survive the modern college campus?
Why not have a Martin Luther KING SIZE mattress sale next January instead? You must be a black male and lay down on a mattress – then be photographed as if you are in a coffin first to qualify for a discount (of 1%).
How about full size women get double stuffed, pillow top mattresses? More cushion for the pushin’! They will measure your waist with a measuring tape and put you on a scale to see if you qualify.
Hmmm, I have an Idea…if you show up in drag, then dance around the store, we will give you a QUEEN sized mattress!!
Some ideas just need to stay inside of your head and not on a promotional youtube video. What is WONG with people? #badtaste #poorjudgement

What would happen if Based Mom sat down with Based Goddess for an hour to discuss modern-day feminism? No need to speculate—here’s the full one-hour interview (with bonus content!) featuring Christina Hoff Sommers and Camille Paglia where they break down #Gamergate, intersectional feminism, the “male gaze”, and much, much more.
Is what happened here worth $1,400,000?
DETROIT — A white, former Detroit-area police officer was found guilty Thursday of assault and misconduct in the bloody beating of a black driver during a traffic stop that was captured on video.
Wayne County jurors handed down the verdict in the case against William Melendez, who was charged in the January beating of Floyd Dent. Police stopped Dent, 58, in the Detroit suburb of Inkster for disregarding a stop sign, and dashcam video from a police vehicle shows Melendez punching him 16 times in the head.
It wasn’t until after WDIV-TV aired the footage in March that Melendez was fired. Inkster later agreed to pay $1.4 million to Dent, who suffered broken ribs, blood on his brain and other injuries.
The jurors found Melendez guilty of assault with intent to do great bodily harm and of misconduct in office. They cleared him of a charge of assault by strangulation.
Well, I don’t think it was worth it. As long as it doesn’t come out of YOUR pocket, you probably don’t care. Well, you would care if you were getting the beat down!
I’m glad that this happened:
Wow, this guy sounds like me, except I don’t use the word “nigga” at all…and would NEVER wear a man bun if I could grow my hair out again.
But yeah, he has a similar mindset as me when it comes to independent thought.
I think it’s fascinating when people have called me a misogynist. I literally laugh out loud when that happens. People really have NO IDEA what they are saying most of the time.
Being called names certainly won’t change how I feel about certain ideologies. I’m brave enough and adult enough to not get my feelings hurt by people I barely know calling me names online. In fact, I’ve been known to have the ability to push back in person and online.
It’s refreshing to see a young person challenge his peers and let them see that people aren’t necessarily always in one box or another. We might be tribal, but we all don’t think alike. We all don’t have views that are consistently liberal or conservative. We tend to straddle the fence more than we think.
Check out this video and tell me what you think:
What? Don’t wow me? What kind of nonsense does this woman think she is trying to pull?
It is amazing to see an exchange between someone who isn’t afraid to speak their mind and challenge everything that is assumed. It’s refreshing to see someone not back down to someone on this network.
D.L stood his ground and made her look silly, especially when she tried to get belligerent and raise her voice and tried to shout him down. That is the moment in the video where he said, under his breath, “wow.’ I guess Megyn thought he committed a little micro-aggression and made her feel threatened. Well, that is too bad. This is the big leagues. If she wanted to raise the intensity level, she chose the wrong person to challenge. D.L. showed that he was able to go toe-to-toe with someone who thought could make her opponent look bad on national TV.
You were wrong Megyn. Dead wrong.
I get sick of the media sticking a microphone into the face of the first random black person they see after a tragedy. Ain’t nobody got time for that. I urge the media to begin putting microphones in front of the following people and see how the conversation changes:
DL. Hughley
Eddie Glaude
Henry Louis Gates
Cornel West
Bell Hooks
Thomas Sowell
Shelby Steele
Walter Williams
Neil DeGrasse Tyson
Ta-Nehisi Coates
Keli Goff
Dr. Julianne Malveaux
Jamelle Bouie
Nikole Hanna-Jones
Joy Reid
Jamil Smith
Marc Lamont Hill
James Braxton Peterson
Brittney Cooper
Melissa Harris-Perry
Tavis Smiley
Nelson George
Greg Tate
BARAK HUSSEIN OBAMA
and dozens of others….
I don’t agree with all of these thinkers and I am not aligned with their political views, but I would be more than happy to have them speak to the issues of our times. There are few people on this list who I would love to speak, with and I’m pretty sure we will never see eye to eye. I am quite sure we will find a way to have a productive conversation and find common ground in the end.
We come from a history of black intelligentsia.
Have we forgotten brilliant minds like W.E.B. DuBois, Richard Wright, James Weldon Johnson, Ralph Bunche, Zora Neale Hurston, Martin Luther King and Malcolm X? There are dozens more, but I want to expose my readers to the people that are around right now with the list above. Intelligent black men and women exist. We are here, we are writing, speaking, organizing, and unafraid of speaking up and not backing down from some intellectual jiu-jitsu.
The time has come for people to stand up and not be shouted down but those who feel they are superior simply because they were born with less melanin.
Check out this video. I loved every second where D.L. refused to go along with the script and showed Megyn that she couldn’t “out-FOX” him. Good job D.L!
