Rape

4 teenage boys (ages 14-15) were charged with sexual assault for sodomizing a boy (over a 2mo. period) with a broomstick and hockey stick.

In Laments terms, 4 teenage boys held a boy down and shoved a broomstick or hockey stick in his butt repeatedly for the last 2months. Click HERE to read the article.

Rape comes in so many forms its ridiculous. Like, what were they thinking? What compelled them to hold a boy down and do something like that, more than once, and think it was alright? For those who opted out of reading the entire article, the boys all played football together. The boy being raped didn't speak up about it (for reasons unknown, as of yet) until a fight broke out on the field and he said he was "tired of them getting on" him.

What's even worse is that there were people who overheard this boys screams when this took place or actually were there to bear witness to it. They never spoke up. What were they thinking? I'm just flabbergasted. Like. Really. The world must be ending.

These days I dream too much and don't write enough. And these days I'm trying to find God everywhere.

"Recent photo of a little boy visiting the White House. He wanted to feel Obama's hair because he wanted to know if the President's hair felt just like his. Obama obliged. Priceless."

Thought for the Day 6/4

Truth don't fit your mouth,
but open your mind wider.
Your soul might follow.

Thought for the Day 6/3

If we all made in God's image then that means His face is mine. Wait. Or is that blasphemy? It's logical. It has to be. If I don't look like my father then the way I live is bastardly.
-Talib Kweli

Whoo!

Thought for the Day 6/2

THE WORD IS NIGGER.

"A word used to exclude is now exclusively used by the excluded. And with it, excluding its original excluders who use the slang to now gain inclusion into the group from which their group wanted to be removed from."

Why Couldn't I Think of That?

Thought for the Day 6/1

So, I'm going to make a point to actually post a quote a day. So, at the least, I'll be contributing something in some capacity on the daily. This will also prevent me from having to do another WordsGalore! post... hopefully lol

...and the thought for today is brought to you from a friend of mine named Jeaninne Kayembe. Wanna hear it? Here it goes:

Be that majestic oak tree
who was once a crazy nut
that stood his ground.

Yay or Nay?
I Love It,
B
