UPDATE: 'Dudus' captured

    Thursday 24th of June, a army of federal officials escorted  Mr. Christopher 'Dudus' Coke, alleged crime boss of the Shower Posse from Micheal Manley International airport to Westchester County airport. He was greeted to many reporters taking pictures of a man that prior to this point limited pictures were available.
     'Dudus' is set to face gun running and narcotics charges in a New York court. Mr. Coke when captured in Jamaica waived his right for an extradition hearing believing his chances for a fair trial would be severely limited.
      Coke, 40 is charged with conspiracy to distribute cocaine and illegal trafficking of guns and ammunition according to online reports. If Mr. Coke is convicted he will serve a maximum of life in prison and minimum of ten years.
      It is baffling to me how the U.S government is dedicated to putting this man behind bars for life when there is a wide variety of domestic treat. Is it a personal vendetta? I'm not sure. Mr. Coke's father was the head of a notorious gang named 'Shower Posse' known the number of bullets they use murders. Mr. Brown never made it to serve U.S prison time. He was burned in a Jamaican jail. 'Dudus' allegedly became the new leader of the Shower Posse and allegedly created a more successful infrastructure that will now know him freedom
     I am glued to this story and will most definitely update.

Caught on Tape - Police Officer Punching Woman Resisting Arrest

Police Bruality!

   We the people are no strangers to news of Police brutality. Recently video of a Seattle cop punching a teen as she defended her cousin/friend, who was resisting arrest, has been circulating around the Internet. In this day and age of video phones and Youtube, one would think people on both sides of the spectrum would limit their actions in public. Well I guess I'm the only one thinking in such a fashion.
   Police officer Ian Walsh, 39 was in the midst of arresting a young lady for jaywalking, is that really a crime, when her friend or cousin interrupted shoved the police office, according to video, and gets punched.
Wow, was my reaction. Should the girl have intervened? No. Should the police officer have punched? No.
My next question is, should the police officer have been able to recognize a real treat and pacified the situation. Yes. Isn't this what they are trained for?
   A public apology was issued to the officer by the girl and accepted by the officer. Really, why?
The law states you shouldn't shove a police officer, but this is the same state that is still issuing citations for jaywalking. The real crime hear is hiring of these incompetent individuals to serve and protect.

Basketball Wives reunion fight!!!

The Basketball Wives

Last night I reveled in the reunion of the VH1's Basketball wives.
After I got past the lackluster host and her facial expressions, the show
was to die for. Two thumbs up to Shaunie O'neal and her crew for entertainment
well done.
Like every reunion show, the host went through the cast of women, who only one is
an actual wife minus the most prolific sounding Gloria, who to me, her answers where always well rehearsed, and quickly revisited their experiences on the show.
The very gangster Shaunie O'Neil, the most poised Jennifer, the lovely Evelyn and our girl Royce responses to the events that unfolded on air compensated for poor editing VH1. Who was the producer?
The highlight was without a doubt 'Plastic Surgery'. The alleged known Miami's groupie who looked a mess, but took advantage of her camera time, promoting herself and endeavours. Her ongoing rivalry with Susie Ketcham escalated to a bucket of water being thrown on her, being pushed which resulting in her falling, which for obvious reasons had to be edited out.
I couldn't contain my laughter. But Karma sufficed when Ms. Ketchum was arrested after the taping.
Where was Gloria? Should I have even asked that question? And did we miss her? No. Her fiance 'Matt Barnes who?' felt the need to show his true colors and vented on twitter today, blasting Mrs. Oneil and calling her out on how she treated poor Gloria. Poor Gloria did this to herself. One of my favorite lines of season 1 was at the finale when Gloria Govan said to Royce "you will never be a wifey with a ring".
What planet is this chick living on, isn't the point to a wife not a wifey. Is this the message of Ms. educated. Girls just get the ring and settle for wifey forget being the wife. Stupid.
My message is girls get your own and don't push out twins and wait for a dude to prove a point and announce his marriage to you on twitter. Fail
Vh1, you have a hit and can't wait for season 2.

Where were the cameras

Where Were The Cameras?

I was not sure this morning whether to laugh, cry or sigh at this news story. An American citizen with several names was detained by Pakistani police on a self-proclaimed mission to hunt down Osama Bin Laden. Our very own missionary was caught with a dagger, a pistol, a sword, Christian texts, and night vision goggles according to news reports. He was caught in Chitral, Pakistan, an area rumored to hide Mr. Bin Laden. How did he know that?
Waking up with my morning coffee in hand and laptop browsing thru the many news worthy stories I came across this one. Is this a joke? This has to be a scene from the new Die Hard series or a reality show gone terribly wrong. Really!!!
The events that lead to his capture are quite amusing. Straight from the script of a sensational Holly weird plot, this construction worker, with failing kidneys checked into an Inn and went missing the next day. He was spotted acting somewhat suspiciously in a security zone, threatening to kill anyone who got close to him. His sister, allegedly, was interviewed by a newspaper, and she spoke about her brother’s health issues and his over-zealous religious nature from youth.
Are you with me or am I the only one with the inability to wrap my mind around this ‘situation’. What do you think would have happened if our very own John McClane would have single handedly caught Mr. Bin Laden? A feat that was made extremely impossible by the most powerful military in the world, the U.S. Army. I’m sorry I don’t know the answer to this question, thus my asking.
Did Mr. Faulkner embark on such a quest for fame or was it a truly genuine mission? Then I will now ask why not something a little more attainable like the alleged Jamaican crime boss, that the U.S. government is so hell bent on extraditing or the Mexican cartel whose U.S., Mexico border debacle has cost thousands of lives. I’m not sure but is America still searching for Bin Laden or should we be concern with Iran’s plan to embellish their nuclear strength.
We are living in a time where it is very hard to differentiate from reality and fiction. In a country as powerful as ours we can’t even contain an oil spill, or subdue domestic terrorism. Another story straight from a movie plot, two men were captured trying to break into U.S Central Command. In the letters of my eleven year old niece OMG. I only wish cameras were rolling so we could have observed Mr. Faulkner’s attempt to apprehend America’s most wanted, Osama Bin Laden. I bet a dollar it would have been more entertaining than Die Hard, Air Force One and Fugitive combined.
