..the family of Botham Jean can express their humanity however misguided in whatever fashion they so choose. But those two aunts Jeminas saw in her conviction, not a murderer, but as mammies... a frail, vulnerable, white maiden needing comfort and solace from those mean black people... Let's be honest... The bailiff using the moment to touch the long silky blond hair (wearing the cheap flea-bitten wig she had on that she should've been embarrassed to leave the house with...) she secretly craves; and, the Judge, using the moment to naively cast aside her office to ostensibly proselytize to a racist murder (but wanted to comfort like a mammy of old losing the victim in this an outrageous display of affection) shows that some of us are walking around "deaf, dumb, and blind..." Ain't no future in cooning and buffooning, though... And rest assured the Judge Tammy Kemp’s career came to a screeching halt and abrupt stop... as it well ought to...

Al Sharpton was winding down. “On the Count” was doing its outro and something the current host said alarmed me. He referenced producer and host Eddie Ellis in the pa...

Flagrantly carrying water for an influential opposing party - e.g., characterizing the answering party’s brief as “commendably thorough” while casting the moving party's colorfully pleaded brief as "piecemeal" – brazenly breaches the boundaries of ethics, fair play and impartiality. Adding insult to injury by taking the aggrieved party to task with thinly veiled threats for exercising his constitutionally (a right obviously lost on a jurist who presides tenuously over an Article III court or Court of “Equity” whose raison d' etre is supposed to rest solidly on this premise) protected right of redress for grievance pursuant to the first amendment is inexcusable in an adversarial system of justice, though. And this “Judge” (with his unmerited lifetime appointment) can best spend the waning years of ignominy oppressing impecunious litigants by studying exceptional examples of the federal judiciary like Judge Leon Sullivan on the District of Columbia bench - instead of...
