Jonathan Majors attended Yale University. I wonder how much that factored into his ego and comfortability with the dominant society. Oh well, Majors did very well acting in The Harder They Fall and Creed III. Maybe he'll work his way back up the ladder after getting knocked down a few rungs.😎

Absolutely. Black folks above the radar (celebrities, athletes and entertainers) are getting it differently...pockets and/or prison.😎

Unlike Tiger Woods, Majors wasn't making a lot of money for white folks. They don't really need him. These domestic violence cases and child support payments are the modern day equivalent of lynching. Ties back to powerlessness. There was no reason for Majors to be found guilty of that BS. UFC president Dana White slapped the sh8t out of his wife on video. No charges. No backlash. No different today. They just don't hang from trees. Those pockets get turned inside out.🤣😎

Jonathan Majors has been sentenced to probation. He has to attend a 52-week domestic violence course. He also has to continue mental healthy therapy sessions. Of course, he's already lost millions of dollars in potential income. This another cautionary situation that should be heavily promoted to young Black men. Especially those who are intellectually and/or physically gifted and/or talented. Opportunists can see money and sense weakness from miles away. A wise man said, you'll never make a lot of money chasing women but you'll have access to a lot of women once you've made money. Ties directly to a fool and his money shall soon be parted. Unfortunately, Majors isn't the first nor will he be the last brotha to crash and burn for messing around with that forbidden fruit. 😁😎

Great news and wishing you continued healing. I'm sure you already know that a cane can be a cool accessory. Especially when the cane complements the outfit and keeps you standing upright.😁 Unselfish fans will realize da Bears did Justin a huge favor especially if they weren't going to build an offense around him. I was rooting for Head Coach Dawn Staley and the lady Gsmecocks to win it all. They completed an undefeated season.👏🏿 Of course, Caitlin Clark will end up making more money than any other female playing basketball. I hope not. I'm betting the solar eclipse will come and go like Y2K.😁 We'll be here when you come back on Tuesday.😁😎

I need an update on how that knee is coming along especially with the meds and fermented fruit juice cocktail.😁😎

That is the very definition of unconditional love. The world would be a much better place if adult human beings practiced unconditional love on a regular basis.😎

As NF Jr. stated, white folks love being in charge and telling non-white folks what to do...rules and regulations.😁 No real recourse or reason to complain. It's their sh8t. Need more Black-owned businesses if we want different.😎

No shortage of posts in my time here. Shy has never been my testimony.😁😎

Of course, I don't have anything constructive to add but here's a suggestion.... Brush your teeth and tongue really well before bedtime. Do not let halitosis come between a lucid dream and a funky nightmare.🤣 I just really want to say...hey sista @Mel Hopkins.🤗 Glad you decided to pop in and check on the fam.😁😎

Yep. When the house belongs to adults there are fewer rules. Once the kids show up all types of boundaries have to be set to keep them in check.🤣😎

I wrote there is latitude in the 1st amendment. They broke a law. That's against the law. Laws are created within parameters of the Constitution. It's still the common guide for how laws are written. Those codes were written based on laws and statutes originated from that outdated document. There's no shortage of folks who either feel the laws don't apply to them and/or they just don't give a f8ck and gonna *do them* and suffer the consequences.😎

True. Collectively, it almost seems limitless. Throw a limited amount of food or none at all in a cage full of rats and they will kill and eat each other. N8gglets are In a similar position. Too powerless to overthrow the system of racism white supremacy they instead turn on themselves. It works out for white supremacy because that's fewer Black folks to deal with or worry about.😎

White folks have been colonizing and killing others for hundreds of years and counting in order to secure power. That police officer has to follow rules which means limited power. When the boss instructs him to do so. The paycheck has a lot to do with their motivation. Black folks aren't willing to make the ultimate sacrifice in order to assume or exercise. White folks have proven over and over again that they're willing to kill and die to maintain their power. The power you believe Black folks have is similar to parents putting the oldest child in charge of their siblings. 🤣😎

The 1st amendment of the US Constitution provides much latitude in what we can say and do as citizens. Otherwise, a whole lot of folks would be arrested for the words that come out of their mouths and consequent actions. Communist countries aren't as forgiving when it comes to freedom of speech and other human rights. That's why the Russian president can shut down opposition and eliminate adversaries. Gotta watch yo mouf over there.🤣😎

Powerless.🤣 Real facts though. Cosby put up a ton of bread on education. I totally agree that Cosby should have had the best legal representation to fight those charges against him. Black folks in the judiciary should have closed ranks and buried that sh8t. No real power.😎

Running his mouth as a citizen would be protected under freedom of speech. Any crimes other folks committed as a result of something he said would not be prosecuted by the federal government. H8ll, look no further than January 6th where as outgoing POTUS he really did incite a riot and 3 years later, the federal gov't had a whole commission and still never brought charges against him. Former POJ has been in and out of court for various reasons over 50 years. He wins more than loses. Teflon Don. Personification of white supremacy.😎

Bro, I'll be lounging in this easy chair until the lights are turned out and/or I'm evicted.🤣 Despite the limited participation, there is good discussion here from all of the contributors. I find this forum to be a good mix of opinion, information, knowledge and humor too. Some music like Jazz is an acquired taste and therefore appeals to a smaller audience. McDonald's isn't the the most nutritious food but it sells because it's cheap. Same thing applies to most forms of social interaction and entertainment. Anything that requires a deeper level of thought, comprehension or expression is a heavier lift. OTOH, gossip and trash talk is usually where the goats can get it. Cheaper entertainment.😎

I believe that love for each other is being on code to the highest degree.😎

I believe all Black regardless of tribe need to be religiously taught and codified to the point of thoroughly understanding 1) the system of racism white supremacy and 2) how it works and impacts all of us and 3) what we need to do in order to eliminate and replace it with a system of justice. Black people have access to enough platforms to broadcast the message in everything we do.😎

Gotd8mn. I totally concur with how you changed my last sentence.👏🏿 @richardmurray, you crushed it right there mayne. ✊🏿😎

After the 2016 election, POTUS Obama and his whole administration were gone. DOJ still tried to implicate Teflon Don in collusion and it went nowhere. They tried to impeach him twice. Nothing. Political rallies in 2015 or later? Either way, considering how charges aren't sticking to POJ now and cases dragging for years, I doubt former AG Eric Holder would have been able to do much in a matter of months while cleaning out his office for the incoming administration. I don't see how POTUS Obama could have gone after POJ when he hadn't accumulated those allegations until after he won the office. 😎

Folks have moved away from UFO/UFA sightings and being abducted and probed to believing aliens are manipulating the solar system.😁 The Supreme Being really did a number on humans in giving the ability to imagine, think, reason and rationalize.🤣😎

What crimes would POTUS Obama's administration have been investigating Trump for between 2008-2016? POTUS Orange Julius (POJ) didn't throw his hat into the political ring until 2015. He may have donated to POTUS Obama's campaign in the beginning. POJ's legal problems didn't fully ramp up until he left office.😎

He was a much older cousin. I'm guessing he passed away in his early 60s. That was almost 30 years ago.😎
