Teenage Shooter kills 15 people in Germany

Breaking News from CNN: This morning at 9:30, located in the town of Winnenden, close Stuttgart. The 17 year-old broke into his previously attended school and shot and killed 3 teachers and 9 students. On his way out of the school, the gunman killed a person who was working in a hospital nearby, then hijacked a car, taking an occupant hostage. He drove to a nearby town and killed two more people before being killed himself in a shootout with police.

Ludacris. What is our world comming to or a better question what are we comming to?

At this time, authorities haven't an idea of the motivations of the 17 year-old student. Obviously there must be mental health issue that should have been attended to early on.

So do we blame the adolescent of 17 years old or do we blame the socialization agents that made him this way...parents, school, peers, and mass media....Hmmm...I wonder.

Tyler Perry Continues to Empower the Black Community

Thematically, Tyler Perry exploits social issues such as domestic violence, fidelity, poverty, classism, institutionalization, corruption of legal system and many others within his new hit movie Madea Goes to Jail, released Feb. 20, 2009. Filled with laughter and seriousness this movie can be relate to large masses of its audience. Very Funny...Content was solid, it could of have been better in terms of story line and development.

First Biggie now, Tupac...Live 2 Tell, tentatively due to release 2010 is a screenplay written by yours truly in 1995, while incarcerated. Its about “A charismatic young man at the dawn of adulthood,” who “spirals down the wrong path in life and is brought into the underworld by his once trusted mentor, only to become one of the most powerful and feared kingpins in the city. Eventually his conscience gets the better of him and he is driven to self redemption in life… and love,” according to the official synopsis. Tupac’s mother, Afeni Shakur, is also working on bringing a biopic of her late son to the big screen. The biopic, which will most definitely supersede any work on Live 2 Tell, makes the 2010 release date very tentative.

Do you have to die to have a movie about your life story? I think if you're alive and are able to have a movie about your life, the story must be more worthy of telling..Example...The Jackson Five, Fantasia, Cadillac Records (Eta James), and many more.

YES on 2: Decriminalizing Marijuana

A new legislative trend that is flooding the states has alot of people walking around in Massachusetts with less than an ounce thinking everything is fine. Its decriminalized, not legalized...you fools. Its a federal law so it can't be made legal but, it can be decriminalized.



The maximum punishment under the new Massachusetts law is forfeiture of the marijuana plus a civil penalty of $100, oppose to possible jail time and misdemeanor charges. This means you lose your eight of Kush that you paid $65 and you have to pay $100 fee...so in essence you paid $165 for a bag...Crazy, I know...just keep the stuff at home. It's not worth the trouble.

Other states that have decriminalized it include:

Alaska | Arkansas | California | Colorado | Kansas | Illinois | Maine | Montana | Michigan | Minnesota | Missouri | Mississippi | Nebraska | Nevada | New York | North Carolina | Ohio | Oregon | Washington | Wisconsin

If the government just legalized the damn drug then they could manufacture it and put agricultural regulations on it, allowing for taxation and economic influence. But cultural standards and politics are interfering...Not surprising for the world we live in today.

Spring 09 and 80's Fashion

I know alot of you want to keep the 80's trend up. Personally, it doesn't bother me, I think it's a little snazzy..but is it getting late or can you still do it for spring. Well, if you keep it classic but slightly trendy...i think it could work. Lightweight Cardigan, Classic V-Neck Polo T-shirt, Levi's skinnys, not super....sag em' a little..and wear a flashy belt but be easy on all the other accessories, that's what makes it play'd. And finally Shoes...hmmm..i will leave that up to you to express individuality..but remember they could make or break the entire presentation so choose wisely, don't ask your friend's opinion, and go with your instinct because at they end of the day its YOUR swag...

One of my newly found favorites...DRAKE born Aubrey Drake Graham in Canada on October 24, 1986 is signed to Interscope Records and managed by Hip Hop Since 1978. The dude is hott....he can sing his ass off and spit some fire shit that makes sense. SO where is his album and why hasn't it dropped yet. Predicted to be his first single, Brand New, Drake is taking off and needs to hurry up and feed these music fiends.
