Philly mayor has harsh words for shooter that left 3 children dead

Mayor Michael Nutter had strong words for the individuals that left 3 children dead in Philadelphia on Jan. 11.
I don't blame him these kids were out looking for trouble. I wonder where the parents of these children were?  There were approximately seven young adults roaming the streets unsupervised, on a school night,   looking to get into a fight. The kids were between the ages of 14 an 16 years old.

Wesley Again Bro?

CNN.com writer Lisa Respers France  states that a judge ruled  that "The Defendant, Wesley Trent Snipes, is ordered and directed to surrender himself for execution of sentence upon receipt of notice from the United States Marshal or the Bureau of Prisons as to where, when and to whom he should report for that purpose."

Prosecutors had argued that, for almost a decade, the actor avoided paying income taxes to the tune of millions of dollars and he was convicted of three misdemeanor counts of failing to file tax returns and sentenced in 2008. In July of this year, a federal appeals court denied actor Snipes' claim that his three-year prison sentence for tax evasion was "unreasonable."

 Come on Wesley, you should of just paid the money an get on with your life. Now you gonna be looking like this in Jail

Censure for Rangel

The bipartisan House Ethics Committee recommended Thursday that embattled New York Democrat Charles B. Rangel be censured by the full House of Representatives for ethics violations, the stiffest penalty a member can face short of expulsion.

 I know that Rangel is not the first politician high in government to be caught with his pants down, so now lets clean up the rest of the "white collar," crime going on in on Capital Hill.

Tribute to Brandy on DWTS

Yeah, teabaggers did their thing, but the viewing audience understands that Brandy exited last night with elegance and grace. Now if Kyle goes next. I really am going to stop watching. The show, like American Idol is made up of people who can "trick the system," so really who knows what the actual count is. I don't understand why they don't just leave it up to the judges. You did great Brandy. Onelove

Gang Rape Defendants Trial Begins

Many of you might remember the young lady that was raped outside of the high school in Richmond , California (RAPE). On October 27, 2009 as much  as many as 20 people were involved in or stood and watched the gang rape of a 15-year-old girl outside a California high school homecoming dance. 

Now this young girl has to relive that pain because the 7 defendants are standing trial and hopefully justice will prevail.

The first man arrested in last year's Richmond gang rape was the essence of belligerence, telling police that the 16-year-old victim wanted to have sex and threatening to kill the officers involved in his capture, a police officer testified Tuesday. This according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Richmond high school officer, Gary Lewis testified,

"He said he was going to stab us all, going to kill us all," Lewis said. "He was resisting arrest from the moment I contacted him.

Police who arrived at the rape scene in a courtyard on the north side of the school found the victim, bleeding and vomiting, draped over a bench with her purple dress pulled up above her waist, two officers testified Monday.

One, Officer Gunnar Googins, testified that Ortega said of the victim, "'I just wanted to pimp her out." 

This is a sad testimony of the world today. It is a sign of the times. We have youth who don't have any value for themselves, much less for any other life. You often wonder where did these young men go wrong in their life?  Did they stop once to think suppose this was happening to their sister, mother? Just sad

Ethics trial continues after Rangel Walks Out

Charles Rangel thought by saying, "I have no lawyer," that would postpone the trial. WRONG!!

According to yahoo news, "WASHINGTON – Shortly after veteran Rep. Charles Rangel of New York walked out of his trial  in protest, a House panel began closed-door deliberations Monday, on 13 counts of alleged financial and fundraising misconduct that could bring formal condemnation.

The panel met for several hours before quitting. Deliberations were to resume Tuesday.

Only recently one of the most powerful members of Congress, Rangel was reduced to pleading in vain for colleagues to give him time to raise money for a lawyer before taking up the charges. The 80-year-old congressman left even before they said no, and the rare proceeding — only the second for this type of hearing in two decades — went on without him.

It is white collar crime that is hurting America, not stuff like smoking a stick of weed.
