Realest Op Ed On Fisher v VY

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/jeff-fisher-vince-young-tennessee-titans-cruel-game-112910

Highlights:
Titans could be in their division hunt
VY was in the wrong, however he snapped because Fisher pushed him too far
Young said he could have gutted the season out
Young was having his best season (98.6 Rating)
The Titans quit on Fisher because of how he has treated Young
Fisher has 5 playoff appearances in 16 years (I've heard 6)
Fisher works the media, ESPN in particular
He signed Chris Mortensen's son as a free agent (couldn't start at Samford)
This isn't a race issue

My thoughts:
The fact that Chris Mortensen has been the main ESPN reporter regarding this issue is egregious. ESPN has too much influence on public opinion. Fisher gets way too much credit considering his coaching record.

I don't agree with apologies through text messages however how do you apologize face to face to someone who banishes you from the facility?

Crazy Man Shot By LAPD

Manuel Jaminez a 37 year old construction worker from Guatemala was brandishing a knife and threatening people. He then threatened police.

Apparently he wouldn't put the knife down so the police shot him. I don't see the problem. At a town hall meeting one person asked why they couldn't disarm him? Another asked why the officer hasn't been suspended? An officer responded that the LAPD doesn't teach officers to take knives from people.

I think the LAPD was in the right, I haven't said that too many times. Officers already risk their lives, why should they try and take a knife from a threatening individual? People have unrealistic expectations. And no the officer shouldn't be suspended.

My Thoughts on Mexico & Drug Cartel's

Is Mexico a failed state? No, but it's not a sovereign nation. President Felipe Calderon is not in charge.

What should be done?

Legalize marijuana, it provides a lot of money to the cartels. Consider how many people smoke weed compared to users of cocaine, crack, heroin or meth. Not only would legalizing marijuana weaken the cartels, it would raise tax revenue, employ Americans and reduce the trade deficit. I know our first Black president shouldn't be the one to legalize marijuana, but it might be for the greater good. California is an interesting test case.

Let the military and CIA loose. The Bush Doctrine is almost a decade old, according to it we, The United States of America, have the right to invade a country which harbors terrorists and/or intend to do us harm. Mexico may not harbor terrorists the way Saudi Arabia and Iran do, (yes the Saudi's harbor and support terrorists) however because the level of corruption has not been reduced to an "acceptable" level, say that of the United States government, Mexico is allowing this to happen. Obviously getting Mexico's permission would be a better approach, but what are they really going to do? I would turn northern Mexico into a war zone, who am I kidding, it is a war zone. I would authorized drones to carry weapons and kill drug smugglers. The heads of cartels would come up missing or dead. They may disappear or there house may be flattened while they are sleeping. Do these people have families? Yes. Unfortunately sometimes one must pay for the sins of their father. No one wants to see a child killed because of their parent, but what's worse the child of a cartel member killed or a drug addict's child killed or better yet a random child killed due to drug violence?

Shut the border down. All the way. I want a demilitarized zone just like N Korea and S Korea have. 10 miles, no one is allowed in or out. Enter at your own risk, troops have orders to shoot first. This would be expensive, but cheaper than fighting the "War on Drugs" which clearly isn't working. I understand a legal system in which you are innocent until proven guilty, but when it comes to drug dealers I say screw em, don't waste time trying to build a case and let them buy judges and juries. Just get rid of them, the world would be a better place. Who should be allowed to make that decision? Not the President, he can't directly have blood on his hands. The head of the CIA or a military commander will do.

What happens after you shut down the border? Smugglers go to air and sea. Fine, any boat not registered in the US must be searched before it can come within 20 miles of the US. We have the largest navy and the 2 largest air forces in the world. 1 US Air Force, 2 US Navy. Forget putting ships off N Korea, they can operate on both sides of Mexico, in the Pacific and in the Gulf.

It's time to stop treating Mexico as if they are a sovereign nation or our ally. They're neither. Let's be real Mexico is the next Israel. They annually receive large amounts of aid and bitch and moan when we do something they don't like. The reason "Pres" Calderon criticized SB 1070 is because he wants to make sure the billions of dollars illegal immigrants pump into Mexico's economy keep coming. He can go to hell for all I care. Next thing you know Mexico will have a PAC telling the President what to do if he wants any shot at reelection.

After the flow of drugs is reduced we can focus on our own drug dealers. Give those fools 10K sq miles in Montana and let them kill each other. I really don't care whether they are street dealers or kingpins, life in Hard Knocks Federal Pen, location middle of nowhere Montana. No more controlling your drug territory from inside or ordering hits on people. You go for life, no contact with the outside world. Don't worry about the cost, all I need is a gun line and some rednecks, you know they'll shoot anybody trying to escape, I guess we need someone to shoot the incarcerated Rednecks too. I don't really care if they shoot people just thinking about escaping. Don't provide anything, drop em off and leave.

Ok I digress the last paragraph is unconstitutional. But I would like to turn the CIA on American drug dealers and take them out. Now that the President must sign off on. Drug dealers and gang members need to methodically disappear. Who will ask questions, their family members? They go to the news, "we've noticed that a lot of our family members have disappeared with no explanation." News, "what did they all have in common?" Fam, "we don't know." News, "well we've discovered they are all drug dealers." Fam, "what difference does that make." News, "the American public doesn't care." Drug dealers are American Terrorists making this constitutional.

This is Crazy!

AZ Gov's: Most Illegals Are Drug Mules

Okay obviously Gov Jan Brewer could have articulated her point better, but I don't see what the big deal was. The point that she is making is that even though most illegal immigrants that come through Arizona are looking for "non-criminal" work, they are smuggled by drug cartels. Those drug cartels force them to carry drugs. People need to stop trippin like she insulted the honor of people who are already breaking the law.

Border Patrol Agent Kills Mexican Teen Throwing Rocks

http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/06/08/texas.border.patrol.shooting/index.html?hpt=T1

So a group of illegal immigrants were being smuggled into the US and they were discovered and 2 of them were detained while the rest ran back to Mexico. Those that ran back to Mexico started throwing rocks at the border agent. The border agent told them to stop but they didn't. The article says the agent was surrounded, not sure how they surrounded the agent from Mexico. Anyway the agent fired his/her weapon and 1 of the teens ended up dead.

1. A human life was lost, that is sad
2. I judge these things based on how I was raised

Person throwing a rock at person with gun = person asking to get shot. If this had been me and I survived my parents would have beat my ass for doing something that stupid. I was told not to even talk back to the police just because you never know when they want to trip. Yeah police are wrong when they use excessive force, but is that what you want on your grave? And I'm a legal citizen. I'm sure Ruben Naverrette will have an editorial by tomorrow about how egregious this is.

I don't understand how the border agent was on a bike... That's a dangerous job and he has a bicycle? Nah that's not okay. The messed up part is the agent probably has a bullet proof vest but no way to get away if he/she is in trouble.

Helen Thomas Retiring/Got Fired

Helen Thomas, the longest serving White House reporter (since the 60s), is being widely condemned for her comments regarding Israel. She was asked to give her thoughts on what Israel should do after their clusterf*** last week in stopping the flotilla headed to Gaza. Not saying stopping the flotilla was a bad idea, but how they went about it was clearly dumb. Anyway Thomas' response was "get the hell out of Palestine" and that the Jewish people should go home to "Poland, Germany ... and America and everywhere else."

Now I understand where people are coming from to a certain extent. Hitler tried to eradicate all of the Jewish people in Europe so after WWII the world powers decided to create Israel. In the world of US politics saying anything not 80% in favor of Israel is like being a Black politician, people thinking you are dating a White woman and trying to become a Senator in Tennessee (Harold Ford Jr). But it's not like Israel was purchased, it was jacked. So the fact that Helen Thomas said they need to get the hell out isn't the despicable comment everyone is making it out to be.

The issue that I have is that Israel has a blank check from the United States. We go along with whatever they do and we give them more foreign aid than any other country. Think about that, Israel is a fully developed country yet we give them more aid than anyone else. People getting pushed out for speaking their mind... It would be different if she actually said something that was crazy and offensive.

Hooters Girl Weighs Too Much?

You all should be able to guess where I stand on this. Girl you work at Hooters! The food is nasty, why do people go? To look at the girls, it's not TGI Friday's or Denny's or someplace like that. I don't like Hooters but I understand why some people do.

She is 5'8" and 132 lbs, and she isn't wearing it well enough to wear a Hooters uniform. They offered her a free gym membership and 30 days to improve which is nice if you ask me. Ironically the assistant manager is an overweight man, but no one is looking at him at Hooters.

Bias in Children

They didn't say where they are from, but it sounds like the South from her accent. I like studies like this because it's eye opening, it's a 5 year old child whose mother has no idea where the biases are coming from.



Interesting that this child, who is Black, states teachers don't care what students look like.

The Racial Divide in South Africa Is Getting Uglier.....

Since the slaying of a white supremacist in South Africa, the verbal threats, physical tension between the blacks & whites are surmounting every passing minute and second. I saw this clip and thought it best depicts the pseudo mayhem that is about to erupt if these apartheid-torn threats keep up. It's gone beyond the point of a civil sit down to discuss the issues the blacks have been feeling for decades from the whites (and I guess the white folks feel the same way too.... go figure). This is where the lines have been drawn and each side is saying to the other, "CROSS THIS B*@$H, AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!!!"
