A Community of Hope

Cancer Victims Fighting Back on Popular Website

Jacksonville, Florida - An online support community has been created for families and friends that have been directly or indirectly affected by cancer. Laughatcancer.com, which was developed by the not-for-profit entity Laugh at Cancer Organization, Inc. (LACO), is a safe and rapidly expanding forum where people can share stories of triumph, offer remembrances of loved ones lost or openly discuss their daily struggle with the disease.

“I started out by creating a local chapter here in Jacksonville nearly four years ago, but I was unable to find a place to hold our meetings on a regular basis,” said Founder and President Crystal Kauffman, who is also waging a relentless battle with the disease. "In addition, many of the members were disabled and unable to attend the meetings. After partnering with Ning.com in Feb. 2008, I created the Laugh at Cancer (LAC) Support Community online."

According to Kauffman, the online community has grown significantly since it was launched, and its members, ranging from children and teens to the elderly, hail from many different parts of the world. Kauffman and Ning.com eventually teamed up to create the LAC Youth Support Community and the Pet Cancer Support Community to help cancer victims with specific needs. “Once someone is diagnosed with cancer, they are often filled with anxiety, fear and uncertainty about the future. Our mission is to help each member focus on living beyond cancer’s reach,” stated Kauffman.

In order to expand outreach efforts, Kauffman would like members of the medical and corporate community to list her organization in their databases for patients, families and employees. “I would like to extend an invitation to partner with these entities so that the best resources, for all types of cancers, can be provided to every LACO member. Our goal is to raise awareness and plant seeds of hope. Therefore, we encourage people to join us in our effort to help make a difference,” Kauffman concluded.

Congress Must Investigate Dating Sites

Global Scam Could Be Funding Terrorists or Sex-Slave Trade!

Members of the House of Representatives and the Senate have held numerous hearings over the years to discuss what poses the greatest threat to national security. Officials from both the Central Intelligence Agency (C.I.A.) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (F.B.I.) have testified that nuclear, chemical and biological weapons should be given top priority when assessing the threat. However, The G-Man believes there is one more "weapon" that the C.I.A., F.B.I., Congress and the Senate need to include as a topic of discussion during these hearings because they may pose a serious threat to national and global security: Internet dating sites!

I came to this conclusion after investigating an email I received from a dating site called "2Busy2Date.com." As hard as this may be for some of you to believe, I became a member for the sole purpose of gathering information for another article I was working on involving people in their 50's and 60's re-entering the dating scene. Most of the other sites I looked at charged a fee. This one was absolutely free, so I said what the hell. At any rate, the email was from a 25-year old black woman named "Cindy", who listed herself as a resident of New York City. Having just turned 46, I informed her that I was old enough to be her father and could only offer her friendship. She included her email address, cindy4one007@yahoo.com, and requested that I contact her to chat. I sent an email through her Yahoo address to say hello. The following is the actual letter I received 24 hours later.

"Good day to you, and how are you doing at the moment? I hope that you are fine indeed. As far me, I am cool and came over here from Kampala, Uganda, except for the mess which ups and downs of the earth has put me into. I have just read your email back, and I like your person in general. I would like to be with you in the nearest future, if God permits. Like I told you earlier, my name is Miss Cindy Mbaye from Kenya, in East Africa. I am currently residing here in refugee camp in Kampala as a result of the death of my parents. My late father, Dr. Colonel Patrick Mbaye, during my family's good-old days, was a well-known coffee farmer and vibrant politician before the rebels attacked our house one morning and killed my mother and father. It is only me that is alive now, and I manage to make my way to the nearby country, Uganda, where I am living now as a refugee through the help of the United Nations. My dear, if it will please your majesty, I would like to know more about you, such as your likes and dislikes and what your are doing presently. I will tell you more about myself in the next email. I am sending you here as an attachment with this email, my picture for you to see and know better, though I am not that photogenic. I hope you wouldn't mind? Hope to hear from you soon. Have a nice day! Yours in mind, Cindy."

Now, as you folks know, The G-Man is nobody's fool. This letter completely reeked of bullshit, and my initial reaction was to simply hit the delete button. Something told me not to, and I decided to follow up. I punched the father's name into the Google search box just to see what would come up. It came as no surprise to find several websites listing the alleged doctor's name and warnings of a major scam. What did come as a total surprise was what I found on one website, which was extremely disturbing, to say the least. This particular website not only warned of the scam, it posted the photos other women, with many different names, that were apparently from all over the world! Excerpts from emails sent by these "women", in English, African and Russian, just to name a few, were also posted. Many of the sites also displayed comments from men who were actually corresponding with the women for extended periods, and they noted the communication ended after they refused to send the women money to come to the United States to visit, live with or marry them. In an example of one of the more elaborate scams that was perpetrated, a bogus copy of the allegedly murdered father's/mother's death certificate was sent to unsuspecting victims to gain sympathy and trust.

An alleged copy of the slain parent's death certificate that was sent to unsuspecting victims.

It didn't take me long to realize that for every guy smart enough to steer clear of this setup, there is probably another who fell prey and relinquished his life savings in pursuit of what he believed to be true love or someone that really cared. If you don't think someone is capable of being that dumb, naive or gullible, don't forget that a large percentage of Americans voted to give George W. Bush a second term. There are millions of desperate and lovelorn people out there, especially men, and I'm willing to bet they'll never come forward and admit to being scammed because of anger and embarrassment. Globally speaking, there is no way of knowing just how many have been scammed or how much money has been or is being taken in on a daily basis. This is scary, but here's an even more frightening scenario. Given that this appears to be happening all over the world, it is more than possible that the money being obtained could be used to fund terrorists groups, human trafficking, the sex-slave trade or nuclear arsenals!

Human trafficking is a consideration because of the women being showcased in these photos. Who are they? Are they among the millions of women reported missing from all over the world? Are they being held against their will by the people or organization behind the scam and forced to take the photos? If they are common citizens, do they know their photos are circulating on the Internet and being used for criminal purposes? This is a serious global problem, but in order to reassure and protect Americans, the national media and federal authorities need to launch an official investigation. In addition, The Congress and Senate need to conduct hearings with top-level executives from the leading Internet dating websites in the country to find out what safeguards are in place to protect their customers and how these criminals might be stopped.

Some person or organization has set this up too intricately for me to believe it's just a small, backroom operation run by three guys in dark glasses and leather jackets. Someone has managed to infiltrate security systems of popular dating websites and create profiles with the intention of stealing private information, finances and identities. If they bypassed the security safeguards of the site I was registered with, it's pretty likely that eHarmony, Match.com and others are just as vulnerable and will be targeted at some point. For all we know, they already have and just aren't saying anything about it.

Note: The photos displayed in this article were all obtained during email correspondence with the alleged love interests. The mysterious woman known as "Cindy" is pictured in the first photo. The true identity of these women, how the photos were obtained and whether or not they know their photos have been posted on the Internet is a complete mystery.

Where's the Compassion, America?

Pirate Killings Expose Somalia's Plight

ABC News, CBS News, CNN, FOX News, MSNBC and a host of other networks have been providing non-stop coverage of the “dramatic” rescue of Captain Richard Phillips by U.S. Navy Seals. Phillips has publicly expressed gratitude to the U.S. Navy and throngs of supporters who offered prayers during the ordeal. Commanding officers in the U.S. Navy have come forward to give media interviews about the drama at sea, and the people of Underhill, Vermont, the captain’s hometown, anxiously await the return of their hero. It’s a beautiful story and everyone in the country is rejoicing, right? Wrong!

I know I may become the most hated man in America after posting this commentary on my blog, but “The G-Man” could care less! I have a different position on the action taken by the U.S Navy and the order given by President Obama. While I am pleased that the boat captain was rescued and will be reunited with loved ones, I am deeply saddened to learn that the slain "pirates" were between the ages of 17 and 19. In my view, and anyone with an intense love for their teen(s) will agree, the victims were still babies and probably had no clue what they were getting themselves into. You want proof? Just look at the fact that the 16-year-old pirate surrendered peacefully to the U.S. Navy. More than likely, all four pirates knew they were in over their heads. They were probably scared shitless, but only the youngest had the courage to seek a way out.

I would offer that the only reason they hijacked the ship and took Phillips hostage was because they wanted ransom money to get food for themselves and their loved ones. Somalia is one of the poorest sections of the world, so it's no wonder that children and young men would be driven to such acts of desperation. When you couple this with the fact that rebel forces are either kidnapping or recruiting these kids, placing them into “pirate camps” and brainwashing them, it all begins to make sense as to why hijackings are steadily increasing and the pirates have become emboldened. In an attempt to survive and feed their families, they probably feel they have nothing to lose! America should understand this better than any nation on the planet because the same situation exists here.

The young pirates that were killed are no different from the "pirates" here in America, namely 'The Bloods', 'The Crips' and other lethal gangs whose members are as young as 12. They, too, are often driven to acts of desperation and crime as a means of survival after feeling all else has failed. Elders recruit them, too. They also take hostages when they sell drugs and force young girls into prostitution. They are also armed to the teeth and will not hesitate to use their weapons. Many of them also take the position that it's a matter of kill or be killed. The funny thing is, federal law enforcement agencies and cops across the country aren't taking out gangbangers with one shot. They simply help put as many as they can behind bars…. for as long as possible. As is the case with their African counterpart, gang members engage in tribal warfare in America by killing rival gang members. The social ills that have given rise to the pirates and U.S gangs are amazingly and frighteningly similar, and so is the fact that not much is being done to change their situation. This is why you have pirates roaming the seas and gangs roaming U.S. streets.

I understand the soldiers had a mission to fulfill. Once you raise your hand and take an oath, you do what you have to do. If grown-ass men want to act like they have no regard for human life or international law, then U.S. soldiers should do what they have to do. The G-Man totally gets that. What I don't understand is why no one in the American media, at the national or local level, is discussing the horrible and extreme conditions in Somalia, as well as other sections of Africa, that may have been the catalyst for this unfortunate event. What I don’t understand is why no one in America, including you Captain Phillips, has displayed any sympathy over the fact that three kids, who, again, may have been acting out of sheer desperation, or the result of brainwashing by rebels, had to die at the hands of U.S. Special Forces. President Obama has indicated that the pirate issue will be dealt with. Well, I have a question for you, Mr. President. The pirates have vowed revenge for the killing of their members. This being the case, if they start hijacking ships in record numbers, will you give the order for Navy Seals to shoot and kill 12 or 13-year-old pirates holding Americans hostage?

The Turner Diaries: A New War Looms!

Obama Candidacy and Immigration Could Spark Race War

Note: This article was originally published in 2007. At that time, the article became the subject of intense ridicule and was dismissed by many, including the major media. Given the tragic events that took place in Pittsburgh, I don't think anyone will be laughing after reading this. Sadly, "The G-Man's" prediction seems to be unfolding.

I dedicate this commentary to Officer Eric Kelly, Officer Stephen Mayhle and Officer Paul J. Sciullo, all of whom were allegedly murdered by Richard "Pop" Poplawski, an avid supporter and member of the popular white supremacist group "Stormfront". I also dedicate it to all the officers recently killed.....as a result of hate.

After the attack on the World Trade Center, the Justice Department, which was led by John Ashcroft, issued a number of stringent policies to deal with terrorists and the threat of terrorism in the United States. Many of the policies set forth were submitted to the Congress, and they have come to be known as The Patriot Act. As a result, law enforcement agencies on many levels have been granted an enormous sense of power and authority in a never-ending attempt to thwart extremists and radicals from engaging in further acts of destruction on American soil.

While many in the country still fear that these newly imposed statutes will dismantle many of the rights granted to us in the Constitution, others, including myself, are fearful that the government is placing far too much focus on the "foreign" enemy and how they are classified. This is creating an extremely dangerous situation, and we are setting ourselves up to be grossly unprepared to deal with a homeland attack from organizations that harbor an intense hatred for certain racial groups and the United States government.

"Andrew MacDonald", a pseudo-name used by the punk-ass who obviously didn't have the balls to use his real name, William L. Pierce, wrote "The Turner Diaries", which is considered to be the Holy Grail of the Ku Klux Klan, Neo-Nazis and other militia groups here in the good old U.S.A. The book was published in 1978 by the National Alliance, a Nazi faction led by Pierce. Members of these groups interpret the book as a blueprint for the complete elimination of the federal government and every nigger, "wop", "gook", "Jew bastard", and “race-mixer”. It also outlines the methods of extermination, and how the members of these groups were going to infiltrate some of the highest levels of government to launch a national attack.

According to published reports, “The Turner Diaries has been around for more than 20 years. However, what made it famous was the destruction of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City, on April 19, 1995. That date was apparently chosen to commemorate the death of the Branch Davidian sect in Waco, Texas, precisely two years earlier." Although there is no sufficient evidence to support that the attack on the Federal Building was linked to Pierce's work, many within these rogue organizations later noted that McVeigh was obsessed with The Turner Diaries. Representatives of the Ku Klux Klan and other white supremacist groups acknowledged the bombing in Oklahoma City as the spark that would detonate the powder keg of racial hatred and anti-government sentiment in America. Instead, a funny thing happened. These groups made no moves, and I'll tell you why.

The Turner Diaries depicts an Armageddon waged against the races and the government, but it was not expected to take place until the New Millennium. Now, get ready everybody. What I’m about to say is no joke. We are in the seventh year of the new millennium, and given the racial, political, social and economic climate in the country at this time, it is my firm belief that many of these groups are positioning themselves for a strike. The fact that these groups have been eerily silent in recent years alarms me. What is even more disturbing is the fact that recent news reports and government studies indicate a significant increase in these groups all over the country. I just spoke to a friend of mine, and he told me his father said the Ku Klux Klan just started a major chapter in his area, which is Norfolk, Virginia. His father stated, and this is an exact quote, “This is how bad it’s getting. If I don’t have a gun on me, it’s probably because I’m in the shower!”

No specific reason has been cited for the rise in hate group membership, but The G-Man would argue the increase is being driven by three major components: Pierce’s legacy, the fact that a black man, a woman, or possibly a Jew could become the next President of the United States, and the immigration issue. With regard to Pierce, it’s all about loyalty to their leader, his teachings and the “white man’s cause,” which is to rid society of all mongrels and non-whites.

Secondly, “Karl the Klanny” or “Nazi Nancy” simply cannot bear the thought of having the country or their lives controlled by a lesser race, especially a lowly nigger. This was made evident in recent published reports in the New York Times and the Associated Press. Both ran stories about how Senator Barack Obama dramatically increased his security detail after receiving death threats via phone and email. They’d rather kill or be killed, and this would explain the dramatic increase in the rank and file and covert training camps.

Thirdly, many members admitted, in on-camera interviews with news agencies, to joining the group after losing their jobs to what they described as “wetbacks” and “spics” smuggling across the border to work for lower wages. For them, the hatred is based on race and economics, and the more government seems to favor illegal immigration, the angrier and larger these groups are likely become. As it stands now, these groups truly believe the country is in danger of being overrun with mulatto children, controlled by the Jews, and dominated by Hispanics and Indians, whom they refer to as “dot-heads” or “towel-heads” in the labor force. A Klansman noted in a recent CNN interview, “We have to protect the rights of the white man in this country, and we’re willing to do it by any means necessary! We have to save this country for our white kids and for the future of the white race!”

Regardless, these people mean business! Even former Louisiana Congressman David Duke’s white hood will pop out of his ass every now and then while speaking on CNN or MSNBC. We can no longer afford to sit back and laugh or dismiss these people when they gather, march or appear on television. There is too much happening in the country, socially, politically, and especially economically, to do that. The G-Man is dead serious! Did we learn anything from the assassinations of JFK, his brother Robert, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? The year 2008 will mark the 40^th anniversary of the most traumatic and devastating period in American history, and in some strange and eerie way, situations may force us to revisit that point in time as the presidential election draws near.

There is documented evidence and video footage of these organizations in their training camps, allegedly preparing for "The Big Day". They even have their small children dressed in Army fatigues and toting pistols. Where have we seen those images before? Try those live satellite feeds from war-torn sections of Afghanistan, Africa and Iraq. How frightening is that? I mean, we’re talking about something that’s taking place deep in the backwoods of America folks!

There is a real danger that we are not taking these groups seriously enough, and surely they will capitalize, as McVeigh did. A few years ago, everyone slept on the fact that “Prussian Blue”, a racist and twisted version of the Olsen twins, shook the music scene to its very core after selling more than 900,000 copies of their hate-laced follow-up album in just one week! As the segment on ABC’s “Prime Time” illustrated, these little Hitler-clones had a substantial fan base, and it has not diminished. The duo, and their parents, laud The Turner Diaries, and they staunchly support the teachings and ideologies of Pierce. Hate groups have dubbed them the future leaders of “the revolution”. Not bad for two 14-year-olds, huh?

These groups are out there, and they are real. Moreover, the terrorism laws currently being enforced by the Justice Department are primarily focusing on men of Muslim or Middle Eastern decent. This is setting a dangerous precedent. There are plenty of other Timothy McVeighs and Turner Diary loyalists waiting in the wings, and Lord knows McVeigh certainly did not fit the Justice Department profile.

Yes, we are engaged in full-scale warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan, and we are utilizing every available resource to counter the efforts of more terrorist attacks in the United States. Nonetheless, The Turner Diaries, the alarming resurgence of the Klan and other white supremacists organizations, and the late Timothy McVeigh, are irrefutable evidence that the enemy is not only in Afghanistan, Iraq or Iran. The enemy is also…..within.

Photo Caption: The barefoot corpse of lynched Laura Nelson. Nelson and her son were killed on May 25, 1911, in Okemah, Oklahoma when she tried to protect him from a white lynch mob. If a supporter of a white supremacist group was willing to don a bullet-proof vest and murder police officers in cold blood, how long will it be before other members violently express their hatred for "non-whites", the federal government and other authority figures?

Crushing TMZ and the Paparazzi

A Plan Every Celebrity Should Consider

I’ve often wondered how I'd react if independent photographers, or those working for major media organizations like TMZ, had a camera in my face or up my ass 24/7. The paparazzi are quick to say that celebrities give up their private life when they become megastars, but I never subscribed to that bullshit. I strongly believe that everyone is entitled to his or her privacy, especially celebrities and their children. I’d probably lose it if hordes of photographers were camped out in front of my home every night hoping for the “money shot"

Knowing me, I’d hire a look-a-like to put a hood over his head and moon them from the bedroom window. They’re so stupid that they’d snap the picture and email it to their editor in a frantic effort to be the first to get it published; leaving me the opportunity to unleash a team of lawyers on their jackass bosses for falsely stating that I was the person in the photo. That’s one way to take them out, but I believe I’ve come up with a four-step plan that every celebrity should implement to shut these ass clowns down once and for all.

Step One: Noted stars such as George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Tobey McGuire, Will Smith and Spike Lee should come together, pool their money and resources, and form a major agency comprised of young, photojournalism graduate students from across the country.

Step Two: Once clearing a background check with local law enforcement, registering their name with the police department and signing an agreement that all photos taken are exclusively owned by the agency, the department would issue an official certification number linking the students to the celebrity-run agency. The department would strictly enforce the certification rule and exercise the right to check the credentials of all photographers at any given time or event.

Step Three: The students would be paid a handsome salary, which could be covered by donations from various celebrities associated with the agency or the movie/television studio the celebrity is signed to, and they would become the official photographers for all exclusive baby or family photos, casual outings, shopping sprees, movie premieres, awards shows and other special events. The agency would then release the photos to all major media publications and news outlets in and outside of the U.S.

Note: Here are two scenarios where the certification number becomes crucial. Agency affiliates could also be placed in front of celebrity homes to protect the stars’ privacy! If a members of the paparazzi appeared at the home or crashed a private event without having any agency affiliation or authorization, they could immediately be arrested, issued an excessive fine and/or jailed.

Step Four: Once the agency is up and running, the celebrities involved in its creation should request an opportunity to speak before Congress to address invasion of privacy issues in an attempt to have laws passed to protect them and their families from being stalked or pursued by the paparazzi on a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week basis.

If these measures are taken, it could put an end to the hysteria and inherent dangers associated with the paparazzi. It is a fact that photographers were in hot pursuit of the late Princess Diana of Wales when tragedy struck. How many others have to die before someone finally says…. enough is enough?

Tammy Bruce: One Dangerous Dyke!

The TRUE symbol for radio commentator Tammy Bruce: a jackass!

‘Trash’ Comment Will Fuel Anger & Resentment Against Gays

Hey…. Bruce! Allow me to introduce myself. I’m “The G-Man”, and when you publicly and unfairly attacked the Obamas, The First Lady in particular, you earn the right to a literary ass kicking. Step up and take your ass whooping like a man! Trust me, this is one “beatdown” that I’m going to thoroughly enjoy. Now, I don’t have millions of followers like you have. I haven’t sold thousands of books like you have. I don’t have the power of a radio network behind me, and I may not have the name recognition that you have. However, as someone with an established track record as a journalist and social/political commentator, I do have an extremely loyal legion of “G-Fans” that love me and would want me to address the vicious and nasty comments your spewed recently on your show. With that said, I’m coming after you cocked, now there’s a word every lesbian loves, and loaded!

Let me be extremely clear. I’m not affiliated with CNN, MSNBC, FOX, CBS or any major news organization. In a way, I thank God for that. I’m NOT Joe Scarborough, David Gregory, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, Chris Matthews, Charlie Gibson, Pat Buchanan or others that wear a network collar. I can’t be controlled or forced to refrain from saying what is in my heart on any given social or political issue. I cower to no one, and the only way to stop me is to kill me. Do you want to know who I am? I’m your worst nightmare: a writer and commentator armed with a total of nine government commendations, an abundance of God-given talent, a fighting spirit and intense rage! The G-Man deals it raw and hard, and I’m about to get so deep in your ass that you’ll think I’m giving you an enema!

First of all, if you made those comments in order to achieve higher ratings, not only are you a demented dyke, you’re a media whore! You’re a person that will do whatever it takes to gain attention, an audience or more revenue for the station you work for. It doesn’t matter who gets hurt in the process. You knew exactly what the fuck you were doing. You were openly saying, “Fuck the Obamas, fuck Malia and Sasha, fuck educated blacks and fuck every person in this country who fiercely supports these “trash” symbols. You didn’t care about the fallout because you were solely focused on your goddamn status and making national headlines. You knew damn well what Michelle Obama was talking about when she stated that some black children accused her of “talking White” during the early part of her life. Surely, you’ve had black friends or lovers that made similar confessions to you, especially if they were exceptionally bright or gifted students. Given the fact that a “Knights vs. Niggers” scenario exists in the black community, which pits educated blacks against “ghetto” blacks, The First Lady’s comments are perfectly justified. Act like you know…. and cut the bullshit!

As far as I’m concerned, you’re the worst type of gay person there is. You didn’t stop to consider the irreparable harm your comments would cause to members of the gay community in American and abroad. Hell, maybe you did and just didn’t give a shit! You made these statements at a time when gays are fiercely fighting to gain equal rights across the board. You made these statements at a time when gay-bashings, murders of gay people and anti-gay sentiment are on the rise. Escalating the level of hatred for them is how you make a positive contribute to the struggle? Viciously assaulting what is arguably the most beloved First Couple in the last 100 years is going to draw millions of blacks, or Americans in general, to support gay rights? All you’ve done is contribute to the hate and given people, especially in the black community, a reason to say, “See? That’s why I’ll never march with fuckin’ faggots. If she’s saying that, how many other faggots are poppin’ shit about Obama and his wife? They don’t support us, so why should we support what they want?” You’ve done more damage than you realize with your asshole comments, and you need to get off your high-horse and clean this shit up before it’s too late. Flex your balls and start steppin’!

Finally, don’t even think about taking to the radio or television airwaves trying to justify the comments because you can’t. Oh! Here’s one more thing you didn’t consider when you shot your fuckin’ mouth off. When you called President Obama and his wife trash, people in America and abroad probably suspected that you were slamming the same label on their young daughters. This must be the case because Malia and Sasha were produced as a result of a union between their parents, right? That makes them trash, too! Given this fact, how the fuck do you defend attacking children that aren’t even old enough to understand the shit-game called politics or the bullshit associated with it? Answer: you can’t and you don’t!

You crossed the fuckin’ line. If this article pisses you off, good! Go ahead and sue my ass. I dare you! All you’ll get is the pot I piss in and the window I throw it out of. If you want to pitch a bitch about the president’s plan for the country, fine! You want to pitch a bitch about The First Lady’s stance on social or political issues, fine! However, as a commentator and a black man, I’ll be damned if I sit by and allow your misguided, media whoring-ass to call two young, beautiful, black children, who are future leaders of my race and this country, trash!

A Dangerous Challenge

Initiative Takes on The Bloods, The Crips & MS-13

This blog touts me as the most fearless writer in America, and I stand behind that declaration. Given the fact that corporations and advertisers control the major media networks in this country, many analysts, anchors, commentators, news directors and talk-show hosts bow to their masters and keep their eyes and mouths shut regarding the issues that matter most in this country. The same can be said for the majority of the “pussified” news publications. Many celebrities, whether in Hollywood or in sports, are hesitant to speak out because they're either too drugged up, too insensitive, too pretentious, too stupid or too worried about how doing so would impact their career. Everyone wants to play it safe and not rock the yacht for fear of losing power, position or the enormous wealth they've acquired. The G-Man doesn't play that bullshit, and he never will. If wealth came knocking at my door one day, you can bet your ass I'd take the money...with a stipulation that I could still issue literary ass-kickings and take names.

I have forsaken “comfort” most of my life, and it's costs me everything from living good to having a loving wife and family. My mission as a journalist and writer has always been to stand up and proclaim, “This is fucked up!” Moreover, leading clergy members, such as Archbishop David I. Hartman, who also happens to be a devoted "G-Fan", have told me God's plan is for me to showcase the ills of this society and challenge those responsible for any role they may play in its demise. In the process, I've managed to piss off everyone from high-ranking elected officials to hip-hop artists. Yes, I'm the most fearless writer in America, and I stand behind that declaration.

With that said, you should know the content of this article could literally get me killed. There are no sacred cows when it comes to pursuing righteousness and attempting to save people's lives, so I've decided to take on every single “Blood”, “Crip” and “MS-13” gang member in America. Now, to be fair, some of them will get the message I'm trying to convey. Others will be angry and itching to put a bullet in me. These gangs do not take kindly to being challenged, especially in public. They're armed with an arsenal of weapons and connections, and they will not hesitate to use them if they feel threatened or dissed. I totally get that. However, what they need to understand is that I'm simply a man armed with a laptop and a pair of balls the size of grapefruits! I'm putting myself out there because too many young and innocent people are being killed or seriously injured during shootings between these rival groups. This is bad enough, but when the victims are barely two months old and have yet to utter the word “Ma-Ma”, people have to be called out: black politicians, black celebrities, the black community and black gang-bangers! This is a crisis that not even a black president can fix. This.... is a black COMMUNITY thing.

I want every gang member across the nation, and those on the verge of joining, to read the next two paragraphs very carefully. There is little I can say that will prevent you from joining these lethal gangs, but there is something I can and will do. I'm going to use the Internet to reach out to you. “The G-Man Challenge Initiative” offers you an opportunity to take part in an extremely unorthodox reading and writing exercise through my catalog of powerful and extremely controversial articles posted on this blog and on my media page at “AssociatedContent.com”. If you're are willing to take the time to read my articles and send me an email to discuss them, even if it means going to the local library to use a computer, The G-Man will find the time to show you some love and respect by directly contacting and encouraging you! My email address is listed at the top of this blog.


Again, I don't care if you roll with Bloods, Crips, Latin Kings or MS-13. If there are others out there that belong to gangs other than those mentioned, and you want some of this, come get some! I don't care if you're male, female or whatever. It doesn’t even matter if you can’t read or write! You can have someone you love and trust read the article to you and help you write a response. I’m not here to judge you on English or your writing style. I just want you to respond, and I hope that will be on a regular basis. For every person that takes part in the initiative, that's one more gang-banger off the street and doing something positive. If I end up getting only 10 emails at first, that is a major accomplishment on your part. I’m challenging all of you to stand up or “man-up” by reading and expressing yourselves through the written word instead of negative behavior and gang violence. Many of you are already doing it every time you sit down and write your own rap lyrics or short stories, so take it a step further by accepting my challenge, putting away the guns and taking yourselves to another level, emotionally and mentally.

The GOP: Grumpy Old Pussies

Desperate Actions by a Desperate Party

Yes, I said it! I said it, and I meant it. The Republican Party is comprised of a bunch of grumpy old pussies trying to do anything possible to save their constituency and future. How else would you explain the appointment of Michael Steele as its national chairman? Yeah, okay. Go ahead and tell me there's no reason to suspect the anointing of Steele was political or calculated. Go ahead! I’ll tell you that it was for two significant reasons: the election of President Barack Obama and the former candidate for the chairmanship, Chip Saltsman.

With the election of Barack Obama as the 44^th President of the United States, the GOP was knocked on its ass and into reality. For so long the party had relied on a certain electorate to thrust them into power and dominance, which primarily consisted of Caucasian, wealthy and upper-middle class, blue-collar voters from a largely Christian community. To be fair, you also had a few people of color scattered throughout the country that helped usher in the era of Bush. However, after eight years of lies and incompetence that has left many American companies, families and individuals on the verge economic ruin, those trusted voters bolted for the booths on Election Day in droves to loudly proclaim, “Payback is a bitch!”

Needless to say, the “Pubbies” were stunned. If they had the courage to speak honestly about the election and race, many of them would probably say they never expected John McCain would lose to a black man, even with the Palin factor working against him. The Republicans never took Obama seriously as a candidate, and the proof was in the fact that they kept saying how much they feared Hillary Clinton. They ended up looking like a bunch of assholes, and they knew they had to do something drastic in the wake of Obama’s historic win in order to keep pace with the Democrats. Hence, the GOP chose Steele to allegedly represent a new tone and direction for the Republican Party. Sorry, but The G-Man isn’t buy it.

Saltsman pretty much killed his chances of getting the nod after thinking it would be a hoot to mail copies of a CD to GOP members that included the song “Barack, the Magic Negro”. It was a spoof based on “Puff, the Magic Dragon”, but when the media and public found out about it, especially in the black community, all hell broke loose. People of every hue had a right to be pissed off about the song and the fact that the ass-clown who put it out there was vying for the Republican National Committee’s top post. I could care less about the bullshit defense Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and others put forth regarding the song and Saltsman’s actions. Saltsman, as well as those in the GOP who refrained from denouncing the act, should've known better.

For many that are familiar with black history, Barack, the Magic Negro cut too close to the “race songs” that were recorded during the heyday of the Ku Klux Klan and Jim Crow. Incidentally, one of the songs, “Nigger Hatin’ Me”, by Johnny Rebel, regained its popularity after Obama’s victory, thanks to the Internet. Saltsman’s timing couldn’t have been worse, and the fact that his colleagues were divided over what Saltsman did only added to the growing contempt among black people for the GOP. It was time to go political, and they couldn’t dig up or clone their savior, Ronald Reagan. Hence, the GOP chose Steele to allegedly represent a new tone and direction for the Republican Party. The G-Man isn’t buy it.

If the GOP really wanted to impress me, other blacks who question the their motives and members of their ranks desperate for real change, they wouldn’t have chosen Steele after the fact! This is group that doesn’t have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of, in relation to setting the tone or calling the shots in Congress or the Senate. They had eight years to do the right thing for this country and keep a significant majority of their voting block, and now they want to flex their balls and tits, play hardball and bitch when someone is actually trying to do something to clean up the mess made by a Republican president? They fucked up royally up by allowing Wall Street and big enterprise to run amok and rob every citizen of their right to the American dream. Sure, you had your share of asshole “Demmies” chiming in and sanctioning what was going on, but you look to the man in charge and that was Bush.

Given the fact that Republicans were divided or saw nothing wrong with what Saltsman did, I believe there are members within the GOP that may subconsciously harbor certain attitudes about race that could hinder President Obama’s ambitious agenda for the country. I hope I'm wrong. Many will think I’m crazy for what I'm about to say, but I have a lot of respect for Rush Limbaugh for one reason. You can see his punches coming. He publicly admitted that he wanted Obama to fail. I appreciate anyone this is willing to say something and stand behind it. If you think he is the only conservative in America who feels that way about Obama, think again. The others are just too pussy to say it.

Rihanna & Chris Brown: Celebrities in Crisis

Brown Wasn’t the Only One That Abused Her

Excuse me! I have something to say to all the people in the recording industry, particularly those in the R&B and hip-hop community. May I have your attention, please? Thank you. I would like to begin this article by reciting a line from the opening of the Johnny Depp film “The Libertine”. “Allow me to be frank, at the commencement. You will not like me. The gentlemen will be envious and the ladies will be repelled. You will not like me, and you will like me a good deal less as we go on.”

There are some very disturbing reports that have surfaced in the media regarding Rihanna and “Fist” Brown that need to be addressed. Comments are also being spewed in the hood that I believe are cause for great concern. Let me give you some examples. According to published reports, this is not the first time Brown went Ike Turner on his gorgeous, young girlfriend. Another indicated that Rihanna and Brown have reunited. Still, another report claimed that Rihanna is refusing to cooperate with law enforcement in the case. As far as word on the street goes, I’ve heard both men and women say things like “She must’ve really pissed him off. So what if he got a text from another ho! What does she expect? He’s Chris Brown!” or “He did the right thing. You can’t let these bitches violate, son!”

Okay, here’s the worst part of it all. I know for a fact that there are many young, top-level executives, managers, publicists and performers that are walking around with the same fucked up mentality. As bad as this is, here’s something else to consider. If a police report stated this is not an isolated incident, it’s obvious that someone was paid a king’s ransom to keep it from becoming public! Sadly, whoever it was is also responsible for allowing it to reach a point where one gifted singer has become the poster child for domestic abuse…and the other may have to give up the stage for a prison cell. Nice work, you dickhead!

Knowing how insidious the music industry can be, I believe decisions are being made that have nothing to do with concern or the safety of Rihanna. It’s all about money, power and protecting your investment at all costs! Moreover, the alleged reunion of the music stars is further evidence of an all-out attempt at damage control by one or both camps. In my honest opinion, it was probably just a statement put out to the press to throw water on what was fast becoming an inferno.

Rihanna has not been cooperating with law enforcement or prosecutors in building a case against her boyfriend. That may be because she does actually love the guy and does not want to see him jailed or his career destroyed. However, I believe, as stated previously, decisions are being made that may not have been in Rihanna’s personal interest, but in the interest business, as well as Brown’s. Her choosing to remain silent is an eerie reminder of the hip-hop community’s “snitch code”, which says you keep your mouth shut. It’s all about money, power and protecting your investment at all costs! This is wrong, and Rihanna and her camp need to separate themselves from the standard bullshit protocol of the hip-hop community and face this incident head on. Treating this like it never happened, keeping silent or ignoring it entirely, won’t keep the press away and will only make things worse.

When all is said and done, everyone involved is setting an extremely bad example for millions of young fans. If Rihanna was forced to remain in an abusive relationship because of business as usual, the message conveyed is that beating women can and will be tolerated and overlooked for the sake of generating revenue. Women’s rights be damned! Furthermore, if she chooses to stay with Brown without a stipulation that he undergoes domestic abuse counseling, with or without serving a prison sentence, it will hurt her career in ways she cannot imagine. The backlash from women’s rights groups will be severe.

In Brown’s case, an apology won’t mean shit unless it’s backed up with action. If he does time in jail, it could serve as the great equalizer in all this and his fans may forgive him. If he manages to escape a prison sentence, he will have to dedicate himself and substantial sums of money to causes aimed at eradicating domestic violence.

All the people who think Rihanna got what she deserved or should simply forgive Brown for being a “true player” are damn fools. I don’t give two shakes of a rat’s ass what she may have done to set him off; he had no justification for putting his hands or mouth on her. Period! I wasn’t in the car that night to know what actually went down, but I do know a young woman was brutally abused and that people other than Brown must be held accountable for everything leading up to the unfortunate event.

Charlie Brown: Uncensored!

How Booze & Jealousy Nearly Destroyed An American Icon

It was more than 40 years ago that Charles Schulz created a lovable group of characters known as the “Peanuts”. Linus, Lucy, Schroder, Sally and Snoopy have become staples of American culture, and millions of adults worldwide have grown up watching many of their classics episodes. Moreover, several members of the gang have gone on to enjoy successful careers in various fields. Case in point, Snoopy, arguably the most talented of the group, inked a long-term contact with Met Life, one of the leading insurance companies in the country. News agencies have reported that the beloved Beagle earned a cool $40 million in the deal, but there is nothing on record to substantiate these claims. Sadly, fate has not been as kind to the unsung leader and soul of the Peanuts group, the beloved Charlie Brown.

On October 16, 2007, Brown, along with Shaggy and Fred from the “Scooby-Doo” series, was arrested for allegedly assaulting a bouncer at the trendy Las Vegas nightclub “Spit”. On September 29, 2007, Brown was arrested by police officers in Los Angeles County for suspected DWI. He was booked, released and later sentenced to 30 hours of community service by Los Angeles Superior Court judge Alan Shore. In August 2007, he became the subject of tabloid cover stories after TMZ reported that he threw his I-Phone at a desk clerk during a heated exchange in a Beverly Hills hotel. The clerk received 12 stitches to close the wound, as well as financial compensation from Brown. Terms of the settlements were not made available to the public.

The Peanuts icon has experienced a great deal of negative publicity in recent months. To his credit, he has finally decided to come forward and address the allegations and offer explanations regarding his questionable behavior. An avid reader of my blog, Brown contacted me and requested this no-holds-barred interview. Given his strained relationship with the media, this is the only interview Brown will grant and allow to be published.

This is the official booking photo that was taken shortly after Brown's arrest at the trendy Las Vegas nightclub "Spit". The black eye and five o'clock shadow are firm indications that the TV icon has become the latest Hollywood casualty.© "The Raven"

G-Man: It is an honor, Mr. Brown.

CB: You can call me “C”, man. No need to be formal.

G-Man: Okay.

CB: Before we get started, I just want to say you kick major ass in your articles. I never miss one. That interview you did with that Dr. Morse guy, about bioterrorism attacks, was some intense shit! Made me go out and get that gas mask the doc was talking about. Those damn terrorists won’t catch old “C” with his guard down. Know what I mean?

G-Man: Yes, I do.

CB: Fire away with the questions, dude! I’m ready.

G-Man: I want to start by asking you about the incident at “Spit”. The hospital record shows that the bouncer sustained some very serious injuries. What happened?

At this point, an attorney representing Brown, who was seated a few feet away from the TV icon, intervened.

Attorney: I’m sorry, but because of the pending investigation my client cannot comment on the specifics of the case at this time.

CB: (Smiling) Sucks, right?

G-Man: I understand. Let’s move on. (Pause) You have a pending court date in November to answer charges involving a DWI incident in Los Angeles. Were you drunk when you got behind the wheel of your Shelby Mustang?

CB: I had one fucking beer…one! I wasn’t "Celebrity Rehab" drunk! It’s not like I was driving over the paparazzi or anything. I had a nice buzz going, but I wasn’t drunk. The officers said I was drunk and didn’t even bother to give me a Breathalyzer test. Doesn’t that seem strange to you? It’s all bullshit, G-Man. The cops rode me as hard as they did because I made a stupid comment about Jews when they put me in the back seat of the patrol car. One of them happened to be Jewish. Who knew? I intend to fight the charges. That’s all I care to say about it.

G-Man: This is one of many controversies you’re embroiled in. You’re also accused of assault during an argument that took place at a Beverly Hills hotel. You threw your I-Phone at the desk clerk simply because he didn’t refer to you by name. What did he call you?

CB: He called me a blockhead! Who the hell is he to call me that? Oh, he though it was real funny…. until I popped him in his fucking head. Do you have any idea how many times that little bitch Lucy called me that over a 40-year period, huh? A person can get a little sick and tired of that! He pissed me off! He doesn’t have any idea who I really am. He doesn’t know C! That pencil-necked punk is lucky I hit him with just my I-Phone!

G-Man: You eventually offered financial compensation to the clerk. How much did you give him?

CB: I can’t say. Let’s just say I won’t have a judge ordering me to give up my watch, as was the case with that dumb ass O.J. Simpson. That guy just doesn’t have a clue.

G-Man: I sense an enormous amount of anger, bitterness and resentment in your responses. Am I wrong?

CB: I’d say you were dead on. Yeah, I’m pretty angry these days.

G-Man: Why?

CB: Where do you want me to start?

G-Man: Wherever you wish.

Brown takes a box of Marlboro cigarettes from his jacket pocket. He taps the box three times, removes the plastic wrapping and begins to open the carton.

CB: G-Man, do you watch the show “Friends”?

G-Man: I have on occasion. Why?

Brown lights his cigarette and exhales the smoke.

CB: You’re a journalist, so I’m sure you know all about the residual deal they got once the show ended. Anniston, Cox, LeBlanc and the rest of them won’t ever have to work another day in their lives, thanks to syndication. They have so much money that it isn’t funny. Now, I’ve been on TV for what…. over 40 years? No checks are coming to my fucking house! It’s not right. The Peanuts are an American institution! Fuck Friends! They put 10 years in on their stupid show. What’s 10 years compared to 40? It’s just not right that my cast members and I have to live paycheck to paycheck these days by making 10-minute guest appearances at K-Mart and Target. Do you have any idea how this makes me feel? If not, let me give you an example. Remember the Halloween episode where we went trick or treating? Lucy, Linus and the others got candy. All I got was a damn rock in my bag! That’s how I feel today. You’re damn right I’m angry!

G-Man: Hold on. Hold on! You’re the only one that seems to be complaining about this. Other Peanuts members are doing quite well nowadays. Schroder has been opening in Vegas for Wayne Newton for the last 15 years. “Pig-Pen” is the co-creator of “Oxy-Clean”. Sally has a recurring role on “Law and Order, SVU” and Snoopy….

CB: Snoopy? Snoopy? Man’s best friend my ass. He’s a damn sellout! He wouldn’t have a Met Life deal if it wasn’t for Charlie Brown! I made him! Now that stupid-ass beagle won’t even take my damn calls! Where’s the loyalty, G-Man? C’mon, tell me! Where’s the love, bro'?

Brown blows smoke and promptly puts the cigarette out in an ashtray.

G-Man: Speaking of cast members, you caused a major uproar in the gay community back in May of 2008 by outing one of your cast members while on the set of “Deal or No Deal, Charlie Brown!” You allegedly called “Peppermint Pattie” a “butch” and confessed to doing so a few weeks later.

CB: I did use the “b” word, G-Man, and I’m sorry I did. It was a stupid thing to say and I deeply regret it. I really don’t know where all that came from. I received counseling, and I’m currently working with gay organizations to promote tolerance and awareness regarding gay issues. I’ve learned from the experience and I’ve moved on.

G-Man: Let’s discuss something of a more personal nature. I want to talk about the little “Red-Haired Girl”. You’ve been in love with her for many years.

Brown’s eyes become fixed and tense.

CB: Yes, I did love her very much. That was until I found out she was a two-bit, trailer park slut. Did you ever notice how high up her dress was? Watch a few of the old episodes and you’ll see what I’m talking about. She’s been with George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Dick Cheney, Jerry Springer, Mike Tyson and God knows whom else. Dude, you know what we called her on the set? We called her the doorknob…. because everybody took a turn!

G-Man: I’d like to ask you about a public comment she made last week.

CB: Okay, go ahead.

G-Man: In a recent appearance on “The View”, she told Barbra Walters that the reason she spurned you’re advances, particularly during your adult years, was because you suffer from erectile dysfunction.

Brown’s eyes remain fixed and tense. He reaches for his Marlboros. He says nothing.

G-Man: Do you care to comment?

Brown lights another cigarette and exhales.

CB: Do I care to comment? (Laughs) Do…. I…. care…. to…comment? (Pause) Let me say this much. You know Halle Berry had a baby, right? Enough said.


G-Man: Are you implying…?

CB: (Blowing smoke) You’re a smart man. Figure it out.

G-Man: (Pause) As you’re well aware, a great deal of controversy was generated after “A Charlie Brown Christmas” aired on network television. There was one scene in particular, which I’m sure you’re familiar with.

Brown’s eyes begin to tear. He takes a long drag from the cigarette and wipes his eyes.

CB: I know where this train is going. Go on, G-Man.

G-Man: (Solemnly) It’s the scene where you and Linus return from your Christmas tree search with this pitiful excuse for a tree. It was terribly thin. You placed a huge bulb on it and the tree slumped over, as though it was dead. You exclaimed, “Oh no, I’ve killed it!” Last week, on “60 Minutes”, the director of that episode revealed that you did kill the tree by placing an actual bulb on it instead of a plastic prop.

CB: (Wiping tears away) Yes, I did.

G-Man: (Solemnly) Take us back to that horrific moment. What were you feeling?

Brown puts the cigarette out in the ashtray.

CB: (Blowing smoke) Oh, man! I was inconsolable. Those environmental groups were all over my ass. Damn tree-huggers. They picketed the studio for weeks. CBS wanted my head on a platter, and the tension with my cast members got worse. I was so distraught I was showing up on set drunk as hell. It was a really bad situation. What saved me was the fact that one of the writers reworked the script. The new script called for Linus to wrap his blanket around the tree in order to give it more support. We did a three-day re-shoot of that scene, which ended up saving the episode and making the brass at CBS very happy.

G-Man: My next question is one that many, many people have begged me, via email, to ask you. The Peanuts characters spoke very clearly, but the adults always spoke in a “Wha-wha-wha” type language. Why?

CB: That question is thrown at me all the time during my K-Mart appearances. Here’s the answer. The dialogue was sent up that way because it illustrated the point that kids often don’t understand adults or what they say. Some suggest, because the episodes premiered in the 60’s, that it made reference to the parents being stoned and were not able to communicate with the kids. While the latter explanation is plausible, I really don’t think that was the point my man “Schultzy” was trying to get across. God rest his soul.

G-Man: What’s next for Charlie Brown?

CB: I’m trying hard to clean myself up. I don’t want to end up like so many of the current Hollywood stars. They are completely out of control, and I almost fell into the trap myself with all the partying, boozing, whoring and jealousy. I admit I still have issues to work out regarding residuals, my dog and not being able to kick that damn football whenever Lucy holds it, but I’m sure I can get back to the person I used to be. Remember, it’s not how you start the race; it’s how you finish.

Brown’s I-Phone rings.

CB: Excuse me a moment, G-Man. Hello? Hey! How are you? Long time no… Uh-huh. Yeah. Great! I’ll see you in a half hour. Okay, bye.

G-Man: Wow! You sure seem happy.

CB: Snoopy and Woodstock just invited me over to have dinner and watch “American Idol”! How cool is that?

Knights vs. Niggers

How an Obama Presidency Could Force Ghetto Blacks to Change

Note: The following commentary was published a year ago. It is being reprinted because the prediction I made came true and the article is still extremely relevant.

Okay, here’s the scenario. It’s January of 2009, and the world is riveted to the media coverage of the swearing in of Barack Obama as the 44^th President of the United States of America. Cable and network news stations showcase an array of all-star commentators and pundits, all of whom are in a virtual state of shock because they never thought they’d live to see a black man obtain the most powerful position on the planet. President Bush and Dick Cheney have been purged from the White House, so the celebration is twofold. “The Term of Hope” has begun, and no sector of the American population is happier, prouder or more optimistic about the future than black people. However, I truly believe that with Obama acquiring the position of “Brother-in-Chief”, it would place greater emphasis on the endless and sometime brutal battle that wages between two very distinct groups within the black community: the knights and the niggers.

It’s no secret to my loyal "G-Fans" that I absolutely loathe the word nigger. I have expressed my sentiments in an article or two on my AC page and during many speaking engagements, but I am using it in this context to describe a group of people, both male and female, that refuse to be recognized as anything but “real niggers from the hood”. The G-Man is about to piss a multitude of people off, both black and white, but it’s not like I haven’t before. I’ll be accused of stereotyping, being “bourgie” and not understanding “the black plight” in this country, but nothing could be further from the truth. Moreover, there isn’t one person out there that will be able to proclaim I don’t know or understand anything about the hood because I was raised in one of the toughest hoods out there: the Redfern Houses of Far Rockaway, New York. An intense love for the black community, as well as black history, is what prompts me to address this topic. If I have to kick a little ass, get ghetto or bruise a few egos to get my point across, then so be it! The truth is a powerful medicine, and no one said medicine is supposed to taste good. So, open wide!

The two classifications are as follows. The real niggers from the hood have no desire to pursue higher education, let alone finish high school. They are perfectly content with “keep it real” by urinating on the steps and elevators of their building or hanging out on street corners, or the courtyards of dilapidated housing projects, playing a dice game called C-Lo. They take great pleasure in walking into a neighborhood bodega and buying a “Philly” and “a 40” for the sole purpose of rolling a blunt and getting high. The word nigger has become part of their everyday language; they are obsessed with wearing their pant down to the middle of their ass; and a good number of them are extremely proud to say they have spent time in jail, beat a fellow nigger’s ass or have “a body” on their record.


The females are just as bad as the men. They curse worse than a drill sergeant in the United States Marine Corps and are very, very quick to start a fight. Sadly, many of these women, who are usually in the age range of 17-27, have very young children that are always in the direct line of fire during their vulgar tirade or physical confrontations. They brazenly display tattoos running from the small of their lower backs to the upper cracks of their ass. By the way, there is nothing cute or sexy about a tatted-up woman, in the area of 300 pounds, calling her girlfriends bitches…while chewing on a Twinkie and showing butt-crack. These men and women just don’t give a damn about anyone or anything but “staying weeded”, getting laid and finding quick ways to get paid.

The knights are the fighters, protectors and stalwarts of the black community. Contrary to popular belief, in the hood and in the mainstream media, they are not just people who decided to get an education, ascend the corporate ladder and now talk white. The knights, in all their honor and glory, are represented by people like high school and college students, ministers, teachers, local librarians, barber shop, gas station and business owners, and last but not least, “Miss Johnson”, the 92-year-old grandmother who sits on a housing project bench and tirelessly shares stories about Dr. King, Malcolm X and Emmett Till with curious, wide-eyed youngsters. These warriors don a coat of armor called pride, lift their swords of righteousness, and attempt to slay the black dragons that seek to tear the fabric of our African tapestry. They are the sole reason why the real niggers from the hood have been kept in check and not viewed as the dominant group in not just public housing areas across the country, but in America as a whole.

With Barack Obama being elected President of the United States, both groups would surely rejoice. The difference is the real niggers from the hood would no longer have an excuse to maintain their dangerous and self-destructive patterns and behaviors. With a black man seated at the highest level of government, no longer could “Whitey” be blamed for holding them back because Whitey, namely the white voters, will have played a pivotal role in helping place the Obamas in the White House. No longer could they claim that they aren’t smart enough to succeed. No longer could they claim that there are just too many racial barriers to prevent them from having a better life for themselves or their children.

The ones with any damn sense left would be forced to look in the mirror and do some real soul searching. Granted, it shouldn’t take a black man being elected president to spurn them to undergo this transformation, but an event of this magnitude could literally restructure their thoughts and attitudes about race, the future and the country. Racism will always be the ugly, three-headed dragon lurking in America, but with a black man as leader of the free world, and the real niggers from the hood promoted to knighthood status, the country would be well on its way to slaying it…once and for all.
