I really didn’t like this sketch,, but -
When I saw this video I was totally pissed..
YouTube has some very ignorant stuff, if you look for it. this was easily located while I was doing a search for news on the monkey cartoon; from the new york post. this video was at the top of the list; and never did I go back to look for the news broadcast videos, from the NYC Market. that’s what I was really looking for; before I found this trash.
Yeah I’m a lil pissed, after looking at it. but there is something that needs to be said that I’ve read over and over; but until I saw it in the beginning of this video - didn’t matter at all.
how did the shrub’s folks feel when he was compared by the same website to a monkey? probably not too happy either..
it’s a matter of class, personal taste and preference from what I see.
some folks feel like it’s a national insult, to publicly draw comparisons between a monkey and the president. it is, in my opinion. Even when Bush was president, I compared him to a bush or a shrub; occassionally some discarded fecal matter; but never a living animal. I have much more respect for animals than to do that. besides jackals don’t need any advertising. they are doing quite fine on wallstreet and in DC from what I see on the news each evening.
still I wonder why it appears more vociferous when it’s the monkey being shot by two white cops ? could that added element of seeing the white man with a gun be the real trigger for this anguish ?
President Obama spoke about regreening the neighborhoods of america. our question is how is he planning on doing it ? there is so much despair, and economic disparity that the few residents who may be able and ready to open a business in their own neighborhood; most likely wouldn’t because of the problems involved.
we found this video by Mikkey Halstead called Liquor Store
this video addresses the apathy often felt in the communities that are now vast economic wastelands; for the citizens who inhabit them. when he speaks about the special loans and tax deferments; many Minority businesses have the same gripe. how can a person who is not a citizen of the country or even a tax payer get such a bonanza. when a US National who has lived here his whole life, CAN’T ?
Nola has quite a reputation for being heavy handed in police matters. this is a prime example.
This young man, Adolph Chris Grimes III was a law abiding citizen of Texas. Chris had never been in trouble. he had just driven in to visit his family for New Years; and within One Hour of arriving - he’s murdered; by who - The New Orleans Police.
The sheer craziness of this shooting, takes us back to Oscar Grant in Oakland California.
why are these police officers using such extreme force on people who are not threatening to them ?
in this case, the PCR Says Nine Different Nola Officers pumped more than twelve shots into him - with nine of the twelve hitting him in theBACK.
they shot an unarmed man, inside a car - 12 times. why ?
Their Answer, He was parked in a black carFOURBlocks from where a disturbance involving a black car was reported. oooh gee now it’s sitting in your car while it and you are black. YIKES !
the nine Nola Undercover Officers who were not in Uniform, and Brandishing Weapons; never approached him to say a word; they just opened fire on his car. Instantly killing him sitting behing the wheel, UNARMED and probably Terrified.
on our main blog today, we outline the entire case - and provide the news stories and videos to clearly show that this is a murder. if you’re interested - take a look at it here but we warn you - it is not sugar coated.
