Shaquille O’Neal’s Politics Have Always Been Confusing, but Now He Sounds Like a Giant Mouthpiece for the NRA
Shaquille O’Neal is a great big black man. He was a phenomenal basketball player and a horrible rapper. He likes to bill himself as a big ol’ cuddly teddy bear, but Shaquille O’Neal’s politics are dangerous. He’s a great big black man with a podium and a microphone and a whole lot of “pull your…

Congratulations, Georgia Has Practically Elected the 1st Black Woman as Governor in America!
I never thought it would happen, but Georgia has virtually become the first state to elect a black woman as governor. It was one thing for Barack Obama to get elected president.

Georgia Lawmakers Prove They Work for the NRA and Not the People in Their State
Delta Airlines is one of the biggest employers in the state of Georgia. It has a hub at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. You’d think that state legislators would want to protect and nurture that relationship, but you’d be wrong.

Trump Claims Republicans Are Afraid of the NRA; Too Bad He Will Forget This Ever Happened in 3, 2 …
President Donald Trump is batshit crazy, and one of the good things about being batshit crazy is that you don’t have any loyalty to anyone—therefore, anybody can get it. On Wednesday during a televised meeting with lawmakers at the White House, Trump came out swinging against his own “party” (I use the word loosely because…

Dear White Teen Gun Control Activists: Could You Ask for a Few Things for Black America?
Dear Teen Activists: First, I want to say that I admire your work and everything you’re doing to stop America’s idiotic deification of killing machines.

NRA Spokeswoman Dana Loesch Continues Her Crusade to Become the Worst Woman in the World

Deranged NRA Spokeswoman: The Media Loves Mass Shootings, and Crying White Mothers Are Ratings Gold
National Rifle Association spokeswoman Dana Loesch knows exactly what she is doing. Her job as a mouthpiece for the NRA is to shift the focus from looking at gun laws to looking at anything but gun laws. Seriously, she doesn’t care if the focus goes from the Parkland, Fla., mass school shooting to the county…

Trump Can’t Seem to Get His NRA Objectives Together, Now Backtracking on Teachers Carrying Guns
News coming out of Lex Luthor’s secret cave, aka the Trump White House, continues after the president threw a Twitter hissy fit because news folks supposedly misunderstood his call to arm some teachers as a call to arm all teachers. As we’ve learned with this administration, what Donald Trump says on Wednesday has nothing to…

The NRA Is a Terrorist Organization
Media outlets and politicians in mourning have all offered thoughts, prayers and not much else for the most recent mass shooting in Columbine, Colo.; Las Vegas; Sutherland Springs, Texas; Parkland, Fla. (insert next city here). Very few have called it a terrorism-related incident. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, a terrorist activity is defined,…
