(Note: Early Wednesday afternoon CNN changed the headline of the article mentioned below, which now excludes that there were peaceful protests Tuesday evening. In fact, no headline on CNN's homepage mentions the majority of protests turning peaceful. CNN does talk about the peaceful protests in the article.) Who knew that showing strength as a leader, who also doesn’t put a dictatorial thumb on…

There's a reason the best and brightest of Americans who live in the real world - and don't live in soundbites - never become politicians. They're not completely inept. These politicians say some of the dumbest things you've ever heard, while only being in the position that they are because they were the "lesser of two evils." Seattle City Councilwoman Tammy Morales took part in a city council…

It's just sad at this point. The rioters and looters around the country have set back what protests should look like decades, if not centuries by their thoughtless and careless actions in the wake of the death of George Floyd. Case in point is the Ferguson Police Department in Missouri. It's bad enough that the town of Ferguson experienced the effects of looting and rioting following the highly…

Who would've thought that one of the voices of reason during such a divisive time would be 5-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman? If you know anything about "The Worm," while he is a polarizing figure, Rodman always left his physicality on the court. No matter what you think of Rodman, he made some sense in an Instagram video he posted on Sunday. Rodman posted a video to the social media platform to…

Activist David Hogg seems to be throwing darts at a dartboard and saying pretty much anything that will get him attention on social media. It's to the point that Hogg seems intent on fanning the flames of hatred and division. Just one day after Hogg lead a campaign to get #F**kDonaldTrump trending on Twitter, Hogg switched his focus to World War II veterans, of which he claims his "grandpa" was…

Antifa has been a boil on the backside of the U.S. for a few years now. Whenever they show up, whether it be at a protest or an organized event, nothing productive ever comes from their presence. Amid reports that different groups associated with the far-left Antifa have played a large role in the level of destruction during country-wide riots following the death of George Floyd, President…

(Writer's Note: The number for this past weekend's shootings have been updated to reflect developments in some of the incidents.) It doesn’t matter what ANY member of the media, ANY politician, ANY celebrity or ANY athlete says about the riots that have ravaged the country following the tragic death of George Floyd last week. I don’t hear ANY of them crying over the record number of people who…

"Outrage culture," "cancel culture," call it what you will. It's authoritarianism for people that think they have real power because they have social media accounts. In reality, all they really have are social media accounts. But in groups they wield enough power to make established celebrities, like Jimmy Fallon, apologize for things that people used to find funny that might've happened over a…

On the same day that Twitter labeled one of President Donald Trump's tweets as violating their terms of service because - according to Twitter - it was "glorifying violence, Trump attempted to clarify the tweet in question with an explanation tweet. Looting leads to shooting, and that’s why a man was shot and killed in Minneapolis on Wednesday night - or look at what just happened in…

It's an unfortunate aspect to our society, but whenever a crisis occurs bad actors come out of the woodwork to make situations - sometimes intentionally - worse. That seems to be the case concerning the rioting and looting that have happened in Minneapolis, Minnesota following the death of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer. Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo spoke to the press…
