JG's What-The-Hell Musings

This isn't just some ordinary blog. No way! I write about whatever comes to mind. It could be a short story I composed after a particularly weird dream, a poem about couples who assault us with their random acts of PDA, or an essay on what I think about parents who ride scooters.

What-The-Hell:  Jeronimo Yanez

Take a good look at this face.  This is the face of yet another blue thug.  This cop fired seven shots into Philando Castile with his girlfriend and 4-year old daughter helplessly watching.  The jury in this animal’s trial let him go free.  They didn’t care that he murdered a man who was complying with all of this requests with a child in the vehicle.  They didn’t care that this child could have been hit by this murderer’s bullets and killed as well.  They didn’t care that Philando’s mother, girlfriend, daughter, friends and children he mentored lost someone they loved. They just saw another black man and figured, “hey, who cares?  Let’s get out of here, I’m hungry.”

I have been angry over police killings before, but this one has me at a Category 5.  I look at this smug prick’s face and want to smash it into thousands of pieces.  I want to shove Philando’s daughter’s photo in his murdering face and ask, no demand, to know what he plans to tell this young lady when she cries for her father at night?  Oh wait, he could give a shit.  What’s killing another nigger?  Just another day at the fucking office for this pig and the rest just like him.

I want to ask this murderer’s wife a question:  how the hell do you even stand to look at the man you married knowing he killed someone while a child witnessed her father’s death?  How do you sleep next to a monster?  How do you kiss him?  Wrap your arms around him?  Hold the hands that held the gun that ended a man’s life while his daughter watched?  What are you going to tell your children?  Because you’d better believe they’re going to find out, we’ll make sure of it.  Have you seen the video?  You’re husband took his time calling for an ambulance or backup.  Philando could have been saved or at least attempted to be saved.  But your murdering husband decided it wasn’t a big deal.  Let him die.  Just another nigger, right?

This murderer had the gall to shed tears at the trial.  Fuck your tears, murderer!  You deserve no sympathy for what you’ve done.  You deserve nothing good in this life or the next ever again.  You have joined the ranks of other murderers.  Feel good about that?  You feel like a man now?  Because you are not a man.  You are a coward.  You could have told Philando to put his hands up and you could have taken his gun if you were that afraid.  But you weren’t afraid.  You wanted to kill him.  You wanted to put your bullets in a black man’s body and feel like a god.  You can now say that you are a god.  Gods are petty, ruthless, cowardly, and care about nothing but themselves.  Congratulations, you are now on the same level as Zeus,

Here is what I wish for you, murderer.  I wish you misery.  I wish you sadness.  I wish you heartache.  I wish you a lifetime of nightmares, of depression, of anxiety, of looking over your shoulder every day of your miserable life.  I hope you are always greeted with contempt, hatred, drinks in your face, slashed tires, rocks through your windows, unemployment, and ridicule.  Know that there are MILLIONS of people who hate you, who think you are trash, who wish they could smash your face in.  MILLIONS.  You have left a legacy that will follow you forever.  And we will never let you forget it.  Do not ever ask for forgiveness.  You do not deserve it.

Now look at this face.  This was Philando Castile.  He was a father.  A son.  A mentor.  A black man who deserved much better.  He was slaughtered by a cop.  The justice system did nothing for him or his family.  There was no justice.  Even when he was honest and told that murderer he was carrying a gun he was LEGALLY allowed to carry, the murderer decided to shoot him anyway.  Now he is dead.  And his family has to deal with this for the rest of their lives.  His daughter has to relive the nightmare of seeing her father murdered.  I pray that she is surrounded by love and guidance to get her through what will be difficult times ahead.  I pray she can find joy somehow, even though she lives in a country that hates her.  I pray she succeeds in spite of that hate.  That she becomes the black girl magic she is destined to be.  That she carries her father’s spirit of giving back with her to help her community.  I pray that she knows she is loved very much.

Rest in peace, Philando.  You no longer have to deal with the hatred this country has given you.

What-The-Hell:  Taylor Swift, the Meaning of Celebrity Mediocrity

This is the face I made when I found out Little Miss America was opening the Grammy’s.  And nominated a thousand times for music that is AT BEST, mediocre.  And then went on to complain about Kanye.  Again.  Girl shut up!

To say I’m tired of this chick is an understatement.  I don’t understand the appeal.  She is NOT a great singer (Pink can sing her ass under the table and is a badass), comes up with songs about ex boyfriends that people think are cute (I feel sorry for Calvin Harris because when they break up, she’s going to skewer his ass) and is still milking the whole Kanye-took-my-award thing.  PUH-LEASE!!  Get over it already!!  How much more can she whine about that whole thing?  I mean seriously, STOP!!

The ass-kissing this chick gets over that whole thing is what bothers me about people like her.  She thinks the world owes her because her feelings were hurt.  Yes, Kanye shouldn’t have stormed the stage, but hell he was right about why he did it.  There is NO WAY IN HELL that Taylor Swift should have won that award because she didn’t deserve it.  Period.  Should Kanye have handled it differently?  Sure.  But was it so bad that she has to keep talking about it?  Fuck no!!  It’s tiring and annoying and makes her look like an asshole (I’m sure her exes would agree).

Taylor Swift is on a pedestal she does not deserve.  She is just a person and from what I’m seeing, not a very nice one.  But she’s a cute white girl so the sun shines out of her ass for days.  It’s this hypocrisy that has stupid people complaining about Beyoncé's amazing video and making Swift seem like the Second Coming.  If she were truly a strong woman, she would have moved on from Kanyegate instead of crying a river every time she steps in front of a camera.  But she does it because she knows how America feels about blacks in general and is using her “celebrity” to lift herself up while bashing an outspoken black man in public.  Kanye is definitely not perfect, but white society hates an outspoken black person and will do anything to shut him/her down.  Taylor Swift is just another cog in white society’s wheel and is doing her part to keep that cycle going.  It’s a shame that people don’t see it or just care not to.

What-The-Hell:  Steve Williams, Former Slave

So Steve, were you whipped?  Forced to have sex with Tiger because he could?  Had your children taken from you to be sold as slaves?  Beaten because you tried to read?  Had someone defecate on your mouth?  Given scraps to eat?  Had your foot chopped off because you tried to flee?  No?  Then.  Shut.  The.  Fuck.  Up.

Signed, Every Slave Who Ever Lived (including the ones trying to be free now, because guess what asshole, slavery still exists).

Now take your entitled ass and sit down somewhere.

What-The-Hell:  Asking Smart Women Stupid Questions

I’m sure all of you have heard by now about the unbelievably stupid and sexist questions the media asked of six incredibly brave and badass Russian cosmonauts on Wednesday.  Instead of asking these intelligent women about, you know, fucking science, they were asked about makeup.  Makeup.  MAKE.UP.  What the hell?????

So let me get this straight.  Six women, who worked their asses off to get the chance to travel INTO SPACE were asked about how they would handle being there without makeup or men.  Seriously?  They are going into fucking SPACE!!  The only thing they’ll be worrying about is having enough food, oxygen and fuel to get the fuck back to Earth!  Does the media truly think those brave women give a shit about their makeup routine?  And I’m sure that the LAST thing on their minds will be men (unless they’re married and maybe not even then).  Instead of asking compelling, thought-provoking questions, the women were hit with stupidity.  So forget that they are about to do something most people only dream about, let’s just talk about makeup.

Exactly.

Good luck to those brilliant women on their truly inspiring journey.  And to the reporters who asked those completely irrelevant questions, well, see below.

Can we talk about this for a minute….

I’m soooo surprised that there’s an article out here tearing down Black youth, like, this NEVER happens. **HEAVY SARCASM**

(this article is ass)

[thedarkestlovee]

….. Dassit? So basically they don’t like them because they were born into wealth but act? like? they’re? not? There’s really no real criticism…

[what-the-hellblog]

White America hates when blacks don't fit its idea of what they should be. These kids have never been arrested, never been in any trouble, attend school and are being raised by both parents. Just awful (insert sarcasm and my middle finger).

That moment when a MAN has to tell a group of women what feminism is…

[what-the-hellblog]

People need to understand that feminism is and will always be about white women. They have no desire to include WOC and never will. I love what this man said.

Racism Hidden in Plain View

It's shocking (and not entirely surprising) that as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, voting rights of African-Americans are being taken away by rightwing state governments, using the very techniques that the 1965 Act prohibited -- techniques that were legalized after the fact by a partisan Supreme Court. In the South of the 1980s and 1990s, there were bi-racial voting coalitions that elected economically centrist and racially moderate governors and senators to statewide office, even in the Deep South. Bill Clinton of Arkansas was one such governor. Albert Gore, Jr., of Tennessee, was one such senator. Those days are just about gone. The Republican Party in the Deep South is a mostly white party and the Democrats mostly a black party. The GOP has successfully played the race card, and biracial governing coalitions are getting scarce.

[what-the-hellblog]

Blacks need to show up at the polls in droves. Don't let our rights be stripped away. Fight for them!!!

[1863-project]

OKAY, LET’S TALK ABOUT ROBERT SMALLS (BECAUSE HE HAS A NAME, THANK YOU VERY MUCH).

ANYWAY.

Robert Smalls was born into slavery in 1839 and at the age of 12 his owner leased him out in Charleston, South Carolina. He gravitated towards working at the docks and on boats and eventually became the equivalent of a pilot, and in late 1861 he found himself assigned to a military transport boat named the CSS Planter.

On May 12, 1862, the white officers decided to spend the night on land. Smalls rounded up the enslaved crew and they hatched a plan, and once the officers were long gone they made a run for it, only stopping to pick up their families (who they notified) along the way. Smalls, disguised as the captain, steered the boat past Confederate forts (including Ft. Sumter) and over to the Union blockade, raising a white sheet his wife took from her job as a hotel maid as a flag of truce. The CSS Planter had a highly valuable code book and all manner of explosives on board.

Smalls ended up serving in the Union Navy and rose to the rank of captain there. He was also one of a number of individuals who talked to Abraham Lincoln about the possibility of African-American soldiers fighting for the Union, which became a reality.

After the war, Smalls bought his owner’s old plantation in Beaufort and even allowed the owner’s sickly wife to move back in until her death. He eventually served in the South Carolina House of Representatives (1865-1870), the South Carolina Senate (1871-1874), and the United States House of Representatives (1875-1879) and represented South Carolina’s 5th District from 1882-1883 and the 7th District from 1884-1887. He and other black politicians also fought against an amendment designed to disenfranchise black voters in 1895, but it unfortunately passed.

Smalls ended his public life by serving as U.S. Collector of Customs in Beaufort from 1889-1911. He died in 1915 at the age of 75.

And now you know Robert Smalls.

ROBERT SMALLS!!!

[blackfemmejeanvaljean]

Let me hammer this point down. Slaves running away from plantions fighting for the Union army devastated plantations in terms of labor which weaken the south’s economy and immaculately leaded to the South losing the war. And if it was for Robert Smalls convincing Abraham Lincoln to allow former slaves to fight in the Union army slavery might have not have been abolished. This man Robert Smalls was the man that ended slavery and we never learned his name in school. I heard about him from an article on cracked.com

[disrespectfuljezebel-deactivate]

… Wow.

Can we get a movie made or something? That would be nice.

The theft of the Benin Bronzes.

The Benin Bronzes are a collection of more than 3000 artifacts from the Kingdom of Benin, which is in present day Nigeria.

Many of the Benin Bronze artifacts are currently housed in the British Museum, as well as other museums across Western Europe, and the United States.

Some of the priceless pieces are procured by wealthy art collectors through auctions, like this Bronze Memorial Head sold by Christie’s Auction House in London for 1.2 million pounds in 1989. The British Museum itself sold numerous pieces, as late as 1972. (Source)

Privately (black market), collectors acquire all kinds of Benin art not just limited to bronze/brass. Rare artifacts made from ivory, clay, wood, terracotta, and other materials all command high prices. Many of these are in the hands of German estates. German collectors bought them first when a sizable amount was sold in the late 1890s.

It needs to be stressed that these weren’t an archaeological find. These are looted artifacts. Under the command of Admiral Sir Harry Rawson, the artifacts were stolen by the British Army in the Benin Expedition of 1897. They deliberately destroyed, plundered, and burned Benin down to the ground. To date, no one knows how many Edo people were killed in Benin by the British. The expedition brought an end to the Kingdom of Benin. Click here for a short video on how the looting occurred. 

Only a handful of these artifacts are in Nigeria today. Nigeria had to buy back 50 pieces of their own artifacts from the British Museum. The British Museum refuses to return the rest, despite being fully aware that they were stolen.

Family Assaulted by Cops for “Suspicion of Breast Feeding,” Dad Arrested for No Reason

Juley Harris pulled into a Maryland gas station with his family and pumped some gas before stepping into the station’s convenience store and heating up a pizza.

When he stepped out, a Charles County sheriff’s deputy was demanding his identification, accusing him of driving with an unrestrained baby in the front seat.

Harris, 29, a hip hop artist who goes by DC Prophitt, denied the allegation, pointing to his one-month daughter who was restrained in the back seat.

Charles County sheriff’s deputy Gass insisted that Harris’ girlfriend placed the baby in the seat after they pulled into the station. He also accused Shanita Simms of breastfeeding the baby in the front seat, but that is not illegal in Maryland.

Gass claimed he spotted all this when they pulled into the station where he was parked. Harris told him his girlfriend only had a blanket wrapped around her shoulders.

Nevertheless, Gass began writing a ticket as a female deputy pulled up. Sensing that his rights were being violated, Harris asked the deputies to call a supervisor.

But that just made things worse.

“At first, (the supervisor) acted nice, but when I tried to explain things to him, he jumped in my face”

Harris became upset and began cussing. Simms pulled out her phone to record, capturing deputies arresting Harris after threatening to taser him. Harris’ 3-year-old daughter, who was in the backseat along with the baby, started crying.

Then they confiscated her phone, claiming they needed it as “evidence” – even though it has long been established the police do not have the right to seize cameras.

In fact, the United States Department of Justice made that clear in 2012 when it sent the Baltimore Police Department a detailed statement explaining that police can only seize cameras under “exigent circumstances” – meaning they suspect the evidence may be destroyed – which is exactly what Harris accuses them of doing.

Despite the obvious Constitutional violations against Harris, he was convicted Tuesday of disorderly conduct, failure to obey a lawful order and driving with an unrestrained child in the front seat.

He said the evidence used against him was his girlfriend’s video, which was edited to remove the portion where a deputy climbed into his car and confiscated her phone – which they still have not returned.

Harris also said that all three deputies testified that their dashcams were not working at the time.

Three patrol cars. Three dashcams. Not a single one working.

They also claimed the surveillance from the gas station was not working either, a video Harris tried to obtain the day after his arrest, only to be told he had to go through corporate, who, in turn, told him he needed to get a court order.

The employees at the Dash In also told him Charles County deputies had already obtained the footage, apparently not having to go through such hurdles.

And even though it took ten months for his trial, deputies did not provide his public defender with the footage they planned to use against him until Monday, the day before the trial.

Harris was sentenced to 120 days in jail, but that sentence was suspended, so he ended up with two years probation and community service.

And although his public defender led him to believe deputies would be returning his phone during the trial, they told her they didn’t have it, refusing to provide any further information on how to obtain it.

So apparently they expect him to just forget about it, seeing how they are above the law in that county.

But it must be stressed. They had no right to seize it in the first place. And they should be sued for it.

The only legal way deputies could have seized Simms’ camera without a warrant is if she was using it in during the commission of a crime such as child pornography where the camera becomes a tool of the crime, not just a tool to document whatever alleged crime may have occurred.

After all, the USDOJ points out, a camera could very well include evidence of police misconduct, which thanks to YouTube, we now know is a daily occurrence in this country.

The fact that Harris was arrested for disputing a citation indicates that deputies did have something to hide, which is why the supervisor, Sergeant Smith, felt the need to confiscate her phone after arresting her boyfriend.

“I was still videotaping him and he told me to give him my phone because it was his evidence,” Simms said.

“I sat in the car and started crying and he put all his weight on me. I was leaning over on the drivers seat, trying to keep my phone away from him but he took it.”

And once he seized her phone, a Samsung, he demanded her passcode, but she refused to give it to him.

“He said, ‘we have ways to get into it,’” she said.

Meanwhile, Harris is sitting handcuffed in the back of the patrol car watching the sergeant seize her phone.

Harris said they later tried to retrieve the video through auto backup, which is a cloud service used by Samsung, but by then, everything had been wiped out.

In their complaint, deputies claimed that Harris had become so disorderly, that a crowd gathered around to watch, which is how they were able to convict him of disorderly conduct.

And in their testimony, deputies estimated the crowd to be about 20 people.

But the video shows there was not more than three people in the gas station, all of them tending to their business, pumping gas into their cars.

However, none of that mattered to Judge Cooper who said Harris was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt on all charges.

But the only thing that was proven during his trial was that the system is broken. Beyond a reasonable doubt.

Love how the shithead cop tells him that he needs to argue it in court, and not there. Sweet, so they write all the bullshit tickets they want, and it’s up to us to waste our own personal time to fight a fucking made-up ticket costing hundreds of dollars.

Look at the power trip that tin star goon sergeant is on. Look at all of the false charges he’s willing to pin on this man simply for nothing more than contempt of cop. I’m pretty sure that’s oppression under the color of law, coercion & duress, illegal detainment, kidnapping, false arrest, assault. What was it the driver did?
