Tragedy Repeating itself But 10x worse? "Travon Martin vs Mike Brown "

I'm no fan of the system myself but I can't help but feel like the war isn't only in Iraq. Our enemies aren't only foreign and presented as the worst kind. Our biggest threat are those in uniform with a badge that tell us they protect and serve right here at home. Our enemies are becoming our suppose to be American heroes but how can we call them heroes when they don't have super powers. Growing up you watch all the cartoon super heroes and the bad guys start off winning but in the end the hero comes along and save a life and save the day. Well today in the year 2014 our days are embedded with distasteful murder and unjustified results. African Americans don't want to keep marching and protesting but how can we not when we constantly get the short end of the stick even when we do good.
  We all know the story of Travon Martin which shook the nation with its back and forth trial. With all the evidence given the case still had hope for Zimmerman leaving a family to mourn and fight for justice at the same time.Can you imagine how much strength and courage it takes to hold it together through something like that? Now we have another young man by the name of Mike Brown visiting his grandmother when he was gun downed in broad daylight around 2pm Saturday August 9,2014 in Ferguson Missouri,  Whats the reason ? No one really knows and the news is reporting there's talk of brown  stealing  $1.00 cigar but this information isn't thrown into reasoning just yet. Even if so ,is that a good enough reason for 8 to 10 shots to be let off into this young man?
Brown was not from the area and was set to start his first day of college this coming Monday but will unfortunately not see the day. People don't understand how hard it is to raise African American males in this rough day and age.The courage they have to have in their own neighborhoods is a challenge within itself. Even though in most cases theres black on black crime this case will always break mothers all across the world ,who understand the struggle heart. It will touch any individual who has a compassionate heart because someone life has been taken from them and the reason doesn't hold a good enough purpose. Brown laid in the street for 4 hours while a crowd began to form wondering why this incident has happened.His father holding a sign and looking at his son lifeless body lay on concrete picture has been circling the net . He cannot hold his son because he would mess up the crime scene that the police seem to be taking there sweet time with. Yes we all know time plays a role with an investigation but I couldn't imagine being a witness in this situation let alone be a family member . What do you do? what do you say ?How would you feel?
We seem to loose our young unarmed Black male teens to  police officers who we find out later are Caucasian . Yes times have changed since back in the day , we have all different types of ethnicity wearing the uniform and badge to protect and serve now.  But do we really feel protected ? Has much really changed?  We the people don't want to make it a black vs white thing all the time but lets do the research of how many Black officers killed another race and got fired WITH NO PAY and thrown into jail. As oppose to the white officer who killed another minority race meaning Hispanics and Blacks and got SUSPENDED with PAID time off until the investigation is complete.Then go through a little therapy then BOOM their back on the streets. Even with all the evidence showing Caucasian officers  at fault they still gets off MORE OFTEN then they should. So what are we suppose to use in our defense if footage evidence ,audio evidence and witnesses hold no weight?
This investigation is very fresh and I'm sure days to come we will hear a bunch of non sense to discredit Brown to make the officer seem like he did the world a favor. But in my eyes this officer  took a young man who could of been a doctor, a lawyer, an officer, an athlete,a scientist ,a father , a man that could of done good if given the chance. I'm hoping the media doesn't use the excuse " he dressed like a gangster" because once upon a time clothes back in the day for Caucasians too went through its stages of appropriate and not appropriate. Back then it was 'bad boy vs prep boy " and I'm sure all the teens wore clothes that fit there mood and they thought were cool. No one murdered them over it they let them live their wild lives and grow up to find themselves .
My prayers go out to the family and friends of Mike Brown may they find courage and strength to get  through this unfortunate event. I know they never imagined the day would come knocking on their door in this day in age but we the people really have to wake up and stop living in the clouds. I'll never understand why they fear us so much and feel they are the only race that can live life and make mistakes and still get a pat on their back "its OK ". I'm not a racist and I have nothing personal against Caucasians. I have something against wrong doings  doesn't matter if your white,Hispanic or black.I'm well aware one bad apple doesn't represent every apple but seriously enough is enough. Some of my viewers will say "if your not a racist then why not talk about the black guy who murdered the white cop"?
My honest response to that would be because blacks WILL  get big  news coverage when they're the ones at fault and being thrown in jail .But cases of a white man murdering a black man only  get simple blog coverage like mines and online shine for a short amount of time then boom its swept under the rug like dirt, never making it to the BIG news .  But if enough of us read up on and share and care enough , this story and many quiet kept stories WILL REACH THE BIG NEWS ONE DAY . I honestly wish we all could get along but from what I see that's not a long lived dream.

Natural women V.S Dating

So the topic that came across today was "why does it seem like the only dudes who date naturalista women are dread head men or men who look extra hairy themselves with the long beard and scarfs on their heads?" Its very rare you see a clean cut brother with waves or braids dating a natural woman. hes always with the long wavy /straight weaved hair chick. OR IF the young woman hair is naturally long and if she decides to cut it the guy acts a little weird towards her and eventually she starts wearing weave until her hair grows back? Are the men brainwashed into the silky European look so much that there pressuring their lady to look the part? what do you think ?

Letter2 Lee Thompson Young R.i.p My hollywood crush since I was Little

I guess the honest reason why I cant believe this whole event is reality because watching you then and now there is so much growth .But I also know how it feels too be happy for a short time and depression to come knocking at your door no longer being a guest but apart of you. I been battling depression since the age of 9 and no I haven't got help because I cant afford it. But even then getting help and breaking through is a 50/50 chance. I have more days I dislike who I am, where I am and what i look like instead of liking who I am, where I am in life and what I look like. Its like no matter the pictures I post, the laughter's I have during the day a sad lonely feeling creeps up. Even being in a room full of friends don't help get my mind straight at times. Its hard waking up every morning working and putting on your love cap to share with others when most of the time you don't get it back.

Your passing has hit me in such away because I didn't have the courage after my few attempts to do what you have done . I promised myself I wouldn't go to the extreme to feel the need to take my own life and I haven't made an attempt since my nana passing away. I'm so sorry that you didn't or couldn't find another way to deal with the many things in your life that made you feel like giving up. I'm not saved but I do pray and wish that a humble soul like yourself go to the pearly gates and not down below .The spotlight blinded me and I would of never thought I see your name across the screen with r.i.p next too it, at least not for yrs too come. Things like this happen all the time but because of all the great things you've accomplished your situation has been all over the news. I do pray that the family finds strength in this sudden mishap and find away to forgive themselves if guilt is eating away at them.

I'm really heartbroken and knots are in my throat when saying your name now because I know if not completly ,a lil how you feel. Now I sort of see how others will react if I decided to cut my own path short. Those thoughts are no longer in my mind but the constant badgering to myself is. I am my worst critic and I know I need too change that. rest in heaven Lee for I hope you truly are at rest. I'm gonna miss you , I was so happy to see you back on the screen doing your thing. gone too soon but only god knows why. Peace

e and luv LEE PEACE AND LUV

Too hot to Eat ?

         This 2013 summer 5 day heat wave has sent many to not feel hungry, I know this because I too really don't care for a meal as of lately .With temperatures up in the 90 leaving residents across the tri state to deal with hotter weather then Florida and down south areas which are known to be the best hot vacation places, what can you do in this heat and what can you eat and drink in this heat? This time around Donkin donuts and Ritas and places that sell cold drinks businesses are booming ,they are the go to place especially Donkin donuts. 24 hrs service with this 24 hr heat give you the satisfaction to stay inside during the day and when temperature drop just a tad bit by night time you can sneak on out and get your coolata and smoothies. But as the news mentioned we need to stay away from caffeine it leaves you more dehydrated then you think. Water is good but the news has been booming about drinking Gatorade and power drinks to put minerals back into your body which is very important being they you'll be sweating a lot. Just like when athletes play hard and work up a good sweat we normal people lol will be doing the same thing just by standing still.
Now that we got the drinks in order what about foods. Well I personally have become a fan of buying big watermelons and chopping them up and freezing them. Instead of always going out buying ice cream fruit bars with high sugar and other things in it ,why not make your own natural fruit snack. This snack is so good I end up eating 2 big halves of watermelon and I don't feel guilty because it taste good and I feel good. Another snack or breakfast would be 2 slices of toasted bread wheat or regular with butter and jelly. This is light and fulfilling and holds me over from hunger for a good 3 to 4 hrs. Another good one would be toasted bread spread with peanut butter and apple slices on the side. We all know peanuts are a great source of a fat burner so with this food and the heat combined how can you go wrong?
Last but not least I can't forget to mention salads and subs ! These too will cover you when it comes to having an actual meal and itll leave you full and satisfied. With fast food places and quick checks giving you options of different subs and salads your taste buds can enjoy a different dish every day. These are a few things that worked for me and hopefully itll work for you too. We have to beat the heat not let it beat us !

Newton CT Fatal shooting : Reshaping schools while Regaining trust

  The tragedy that happen within coming weeks too Christmas  at Sandy Hook elementary school  struck the nation hard. Along with the town of  newton CT  ,nations around the world mouths were left wide open,eyes in blank mode and hearts so heavy you felt like a ton of bricks fell on you. With Christmas closing in every ones minds were focused on buying there children and loved ones gifts that would light up there faces and belly's full of food and aching from good laughter. But the act of 1 lost young man with disorders took away 20 young children 12 girls, 8 boys and 6 adult women and his own mothers life taken place at her home. Although many will without hesitation like to throw torches at the shooter he too was a victim. Not only too turning the gun on himself but to disorders people pay no mind too.Im not saying what the shooter did should be excused but he was a bright young man with no soul.
  If he took his own life without taking innocent little ones this tragedy would not hurt and affect as many people as it does. yes suicide is always hurtful but MURDER seems so UNFORGIVABLE that theres no coming back from it. These parents will be picking out small coffins instead of watching their children pick out their gifts from under the tree. The women who were teachers and protectors in the children's eyes wont make it home to be with their loved ones and sing carols and enjoy their holiday. The survivors wont see their teachers or classmates and will be scared because their safety net was taken from them. The surviving parents are scared to send their children back and feel guilty to even think about having a Christmas. This town is shattered and before they can even think about reshaping security they have to mourn.
 Radio station got calls called in from across the world talking about gun control as if the shooter went to the store and purchased it. Alot of times in cases like this gun buying would be an issue but these guns were from his family home. Callers want teachers to carry guns and to me that is stupid. The best and easiest way we can start  reshaping the school and regaining the towns trust  is by getting bullet proof classroom doors and windows and making sure each door has a lock. This is  a start in my eyes and idea that sounds much better then having teachers carry guns. Also  as scary as it may seem for young ones maybe all schools should have metal detectors. It'll be the same way if a child was boarding a flight and had to go through the security procedures to get on a plane.
 The world we live in is changing and you can never be too prepared but aware. peoples mental state of minds are getting worse by the day and we can no longer ignore illnesses that can harm others. Now report says that the shooters disorders shouldn't of caused rage but they also don't know what was going on in his mind . This young man killed his own mother,his security blanket . My heart goes out to everyone who was affected and I pray they find strength in this tough time . Even to the shooters family who are in disbelief and want answers as to why this happened as well. I will not bring this  situation up again as I respectfully would like to let these families mourn. I just wanted to throw out a suggestion as to how we can help reshape schools and basically help our Little ones feel secure again. There will always be some sick minded person out there plotting on ways to destroy whatever they can . I just wanted to give a hand and a prays for better days too come.
