Stand your Ground Law

     I'm admit Criminal Justice system is one of the topic I least like talking about. If I'm pro reform, I'm anti-cop, anti-law but if against reforms I'm racist. However, that being said I AM FOR NOT ONLY FOR POLICE REFORMS BUT REFORMS IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM IN GENERAL. It seems like we hold people in retail stores with more accountable than Police Officers. I am not anti-Police or anti-Law, I'm pro do your job correctly. Also if we're going to have the death penalty, prosecutors should make damn sure they got the right person not prosecute someone then sometime they find out they executed the wrong person. One of the laws that we need changing is Stand Your Ground Law. Honestly I don't hate the law but I don't like it either. I saw the video of Michael Drejka killing Markeis McGlockton (well up until Drejka pulling the trigger). I'm sorry, OK not really but Drejka killed him and honestly Drejka wasn't standing his ground in my opinion. McGlockton was actually backing away from him but Drejka pulled the trigger anyway. It started when McGlockton girlfriend parked in a handicap spot in a convenience store and Drejka confronted her and McGlockton pushed Drejka then Drejka grabbed his gun and shot and killed McGlockton. I believe Pinellas Sheriff Bob Gualtieri was wrong and should have put the cuffs on Drejka, fingerprinted him, mug shot, and locked him up for a bit on day damn one. Honestly I would at least put a person using the Stand your Ground law on an ankle bracelet or whatever they use on people on probation. You can make the case for keeping the person locked up. Also Gualtieri was wrong of telling Rev. Al Sharpton who came to Clearwater to protest for the McGlockton family and to protest the Stand your Ground law to "GO back to New York,". Sharpton like him or not has a right to go and protest wherever he wants without some asshole with a badge and a gun telling him to "go back to New York" even if he's the top cop of the county. Not a surprised that Gualtieri gave an asshole response to Sharpton since Gualtieri endorse fellow Asshole Rick Scott for senate. If you're going to that asshole Scott, I wouldn't be voting for you like Chad Chronister whose the Hillsborough County Sheriff. By the way, Chronister's son tried the Stand your Ground defense as well (didn't work out for the son). Yes, Drejka was finally arrested this week on manslaughter but again he should have been arrest day damn one. Pretty sure that most of us first hear of Stand your Ground when George Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin in 2012. The 911 operator actually told Zimmerman not to do anything but he did anyway, killed Martin, and got away with it. Also Zimmerman was shot by a man who also claimed Stand Your Ground (again didn't work out for the guy who shot Zimmerman as he was convicted). Bill Nelson wrote a letter to his former fellow Senate member and current asshole I mean Attorney General (and Trump punching bag) Jeff Sessions. Honestly Nelson shouldn't have wasted the paper and ink because let's face it Sessions won't do shit like Pam Bondi won't do shit about this. Sessions only cares about discrimination if Christians were discriminate against. Also I'm guessing he's not going to do anything if that Christian is black, Hispanic, and/or basically not white (you know it's true). I think Stand your Ground should be fixed if not removed. Also the shooter should be arrest immediately and at least monitored if not locked up. I'm for people shooting in self-defense but Florida will need a new law or revise Stand Your Ground. Things need to change. Just hope I'm able to go to a Rays game after this post.

I have Questions about Only Murders In the Building in the casting

I should say spoiler alert for those who haven't watch it yet. Also, it got a fifth season. Wanted to share Besides who was the target, Sazz or Charles. Anyway, it starts after the play happened which I hoping becomes an actual play on Broadway. Sadly for Oliver, the play only lasts one night as his producers, the mother and son team are facing Murder/Attempted Murder charges and using that money for attorneys. Well the Murder charge with Cliff could be dropped down to manslaughter possibly. That's a shame, I would have loved to see Oliver continue working on that show. Heck I would like to see the play made for real. Charles maybe though he was the only one relived the show ended and possibly Oliver's girlfriend Loretta played by the legendary Meryl Streep who landed gigs in Hollywood. However, it wasn't the end for our heroes as they got emails from Paramount Studio to do a movie on their podcast. Also, if you remember from the season three finale. Sazz, Charles' ...

More Guns doesn't mean more safety in schools

     After the Stoneman Douglas commission led by Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri suggested that school should armed teachers it's been a divisive topic. Heck, I lost a friend because I said he didn't care for his kids and he said among other things I crossed a line. I did I admit especially 1. I don't have kids myself and 2. How would I like it if someone said the same thing to me on me not wanting to arm teachers with guns? I would be pissed too. I know I have said a number of times of Facebook and here that Republicans don't give a shit about their kids. I think when it came to the election in 2016 (and to some extent 2018) a number of people wanted for most themselves like "sorry about your schools and the environment we're about to leave you with but daddy needs a job" or "Mommy needs a job". I know low of me to say especially since I probably still have Conservatives who have kids and aren't pissed at me yet. However, if you reall...

My dream Challenge season

     Not to be confused in my Gauntlet 2 dream post I did last summer. I wished Danny was still alive to ask him if he would have spared me from the next male elimination if he was team captain. Now back to the present. I'm been trying to figure a number of things really but one of those is what would my dream season of MTV's the Challenge. What if MTV gave me control of a season and who to put in (I know wishful thinking but I'm going there). My choice of format is going to be Bloodlines (I also have another dream format called the Wes vs Bananas but I don't know who I would put in team Wes and team Bananas because I don't know who friendly with either guy so I hold off until I heard from both guys or at least Wes because that bitch Bananas blocked me from Twitter and Instagram and yet I don't regret). Also, would I block that bitch Bananas and Ashley M from the Challenge? Thought about it and decided I won't plus Bananas is the franchise plus I want to see...
