Once every four years ... the world comes together to celebrate, sing, dance samba and revel around The Beautiful Game. Some computer models predict Tite's Seleção from Brasil (blue) will carry the cup home, which would be the nation's sixth title in 21 appearances. Other predictive models suggest Germany (red) will prevail. This could be an … Continue reading World Cup 2018 Futbol Kicks Off →

Respect me if you want me to respect YOUR protest

A former graduate school classmate posted an article from the Chicago Tribune yesterday, "Why do whites oppose the NFL protests?" He's a successful author, activist and President/CEO at Kairos Moment. He was a "privileged" Black man when we met in college decades ago. He has since used his gifts to help others. I was a … Continue reading Respect me if you want me to respect YOUR protest →

Demi Lovato laughs about Sexually Assaulting male employee

The double standards in America between men and women are disgusting. I pointed out how White female college students are mistreated by Black rappers and how White women are calling police unfairly on males and how reverse discrimination in corporate America is cheating men. On the topic of personal relations, I blogged previously about megastar Katy Perry sexually assaulting … Continue reading Demi Lovato laughs about Sexually Assaulting male employee →

Have no fear, grab a beer, the Future of America is Queer

I wrote yesterday about relative morality in America. It's no longer clear what we can do, should do, would do or ought to do. Everybody is making up their own rules. If an individual or group is popular or has power, they win. If not, they are shamed, humiliated and punished. Mob rule has overtaken … Continue reading Have no fear, grab a beer, the Future of America is Queer →

Church calls on Americans to NEVER call the police

LA Times writer, Jaweed Kaleem, is a thoughtful author who focuses on trends of race and ethnicity that shape our evolving understanding of what it means to be American. Regarding a previous article of his, I pointed out the hypocrisy of the radical Left for calling to remove historical statues from America that possibly offend Native … Continue reading Church calls on Americans to NEVER call the police →

Memorial Day 2018: some serve America while most serve themselves

I come from a long line of heroes. I wrote about my great, great grandfather, Robert A. Lower, who earned the Congressional Medal of Honor at the Siege of Vicksburg. He was one of 18 survivors from a regiment of 120 union solders who fought to end slavery in America. Black Americans are free today … Continue reading Memorial Day 2018: some serve America while most serve themselves →

Ireland legalizes the murder of babies

I have been a life-long supporter of the women's movement. I incorrectly thought they would usher in a kinder, more gentle world. Instead, the crusade has led to intense selfishness and opportunism by females. The Left historically boasted of a "huge political tent" that includes everyone. Shouldn't a developing child be included as well? Aborting … Continue reading Ireland legalizes the murder of babies →

NFL does the Right Thing and bans protests

Let me be clear — Black Americans suffer discrimination in many ways. My family, such as Robert A. Lower, has been fighting for their human rights for generations. Yesterday, NYC Mayor, Bill De Blasio, directed police to stop arresting people for using cannabis in public. The city nabbed 17,880 people last year for "low-level" marijuana … Continue reading NFL does the Right Thing and bans protests →

Another school shooting as America continues to bully boys and men

Dimitrios Pagourtzis, the 17-year-old alleged shooter in the Santa Fe, Texas high school attack, left at least 10 dead and 10 more wounded. He used a shotgun and a .38 caliber handgun in the slaughter. The weapons apparently belonged to his father. I wrote previously how negligently America behaves toward boys. Some 14 boys per 100,000 commit … Continue reading Another school shooting as America continues to bully boys and men →

Take a moment to remember your mother

My mother passed a little over three years ago. Her suffering finally ended. For those of you who have lost a parent, you know the pain. She was the first one to hold me, to nourish me, and to teach me I was loved. In my many years, I've been able to watch thousands of … Continue reading Take a moment to remember your mother →
