Shot in the Back Seven Times
UPDATE: 4.4.18: I've listened to a number of Black protestors who talked about the "great guy" and "decent family man" Stephon Clark was. Nobody has explained why he was running through backyards. Was he breaking in homes? Faith Linthicum, a California nurse, was fired from her job after suggesting Stephon Clark deserved to be killed by … Continue reading Shot in the Back Seven Times
The War Against Boys
Yesterday, I pointed out the gender bias in reports about teen suicide. These are tragic occurrences and represent collective failures of our society. No child, boy or girl, should suffer conditions that lead them to take their own life. Adults and leaders have an obligation to create a better world for all our children. I … Continue reading The War Against Boys
Girls Commit Suicide. Who Cares About Boys?
Each day I read another article about the growing challenges for girls, teen females and women in America. In the August 4, 2017 edition of TIME Health, Rachel Lewis wrote, "The suicide rate among teen girls reached a 40-year high in 2015, according to new analysis from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention." Researchers … Continue reading Girls Commit Suicide. Who Cares About Boys?
Free-Range Kids Rule the School
President Roosevelt famously said, "There's nothing to fear but fear itself." To me, it seems fear is rampant in America. Parents are afraid to let their kids play outside. They lock them indoors, feed them a diet of video games and sugary snacks, and America's children are now fat and incapable of dealing with life. … Continue reading Free-Range Kids Rule the School
Understanding Facebook and Psychographics
UPDATE 4.5.18: I originally reported Facebook provided Russian American professor Aleksandr Kogan with data on 57 million friendships between 2013 and 2015. Facebook now claims Kogan and Cambridge Analytica gained access to data from as many as 87 million Facebook users. Most people are aware something bad happened with Facebook last week. Today, Sunday, March 25th, Facebook took … Continue reading Understanding Facebook and Psychographics
March For Our Lives
Today is a landmark day in American politics, as students #MarchForTheirLives. In the aftermath of the February 14th mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school, Parkland, Florida students raised more than $5.4 million for this event, including $2 million donated by Hollywood personalities like George and Amal Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg. I pointed … Continue reading March For Our Lives
Why are White Men Angry?
If one asks who are the Most Dangerous People in America, likely you will be told, "Angry White Men." My Facebook friend, Jim Alston, writes, "Truth. Terrorists target people unlike themselves and their beliefs, that includes Caucasians above all in the U.S. I see the enemy and he is us." "Truth. Terrorists target people unlike … Continue reading Why are White Men Angry?
Confessions of Liberal Economic Terrorists
I was proudly raised by liberals and spent my life waging The Good Fight. Recently, I reported I accept losing that battle. In addition, I had been a strong supporter of unions — until I became a union vice president. This allowed me the opportunity to see behind the curtain and into the local's financial records. … Continue reading Confessions of Liberal Economic Terrorists
