Watch Out Kingfish! Tony Pemberton is Right Behind You!

Image
Tony "The Fixer" Pemberton, Jackie "The Man from Comanche" Massey, Nick "Kingfish" Gradisar, & Janet "Pueblo's Canadian Godmother" Wilson were all there. Charlotte Perez, Larry Atencio, Gary Lee Clark, Nick Ayers, Thomas Croshal, & Ted Lopez Jr were there too. 10 of the total 18 candidates I know about showed up. It was mentioned that there's now 19 candidates... 19 mfn candidates!?! & some fkn morons want to whittle all 19 down to only "Top 2". This is simple math folks. Will you get a better, more thoroughly discussed outcome, w/ 10 Instant Runoffs, or just 1 "Top 2" Runoff election, months later? We would get a better Mayor w/ deeper, broader, & wider base of support w/ IRV. We the People would be able to sift through 19 candidates w/ a ranking system better than eliminating 17 of the 19 candidates down to only 2 non-majority winners. IRV would dwindle 19 candidates down to 10 in the first round, AND...

On The 1804 Haitian Declaration of Independence

Image
"Despots and tyrants curse the day that I was born." ~Jean-Jacques Dessalines Dessalines says that the Haitian people fought for 14 years for Freedom. "In the end, we must live independent or die. Independence or death . . . let these sacred words unite us and be the signal of battle and of our reunion." Free or Die. Independence or Death. That's just like Patrick Henry's "Liberty or Death!" Jean-Jacques Dessalines verbally dictated what he wanted written down in the Haitian Declaration of Independence to his secretary Boisrond-Tonnerre (1804). Dessalines was illiterate, so he wasn't able to write anything down. Tonnerre is the actual author of the 1804 Haitian Declaration of Independence. It's rumored that Boisrond-Tonnerre got the job of writing the Haitian Declaration of Independence from Dessalines for suggesting that "we should have the skin of a white man for parchment, his skull for an inkwell, his blood for ink...

Legally Executed In & Around Pueblo Colorado (2018)

2018 January 29, 2018. Joe Delire-Alires. According to police, a woman called authorities just after 6 p.m. and said her former partner was loitering outside her home firing shots in the air. She and her children had barricaded themselves inside their home. When police got to the scene on the 2600 block of East 9th Street, they heard several rapid-fire shots going off in quick succession. The suspect then hopped in his SUV and sped away. He led pursuing officers across the city's east side and onto the opposite side of the interstate to the area of Craig Street and West 13th Street, where an officer used a PIT maneuver to forcibly stop the suspect's vehicle. Police say the suspect wasn't deterred and tried to make a run for it, gun in hand. As he ran from officers, he reportedly fired several rounds at them. Police say the chase went on for nearly a block before several officers shot and mortally wounded the suspect. The suspect, Delira-Alires, was given medical treatmen...

Culture Day is November 3 (Japan), so get out there, and celebrate some culture! What is culture you ask? Culture is when you make something. So take the woods. There's many sticks in the woods, and those are meaningless, but when you take a stick, and make something out of it, now it has meaning. That's culture. Including food.

November 14

Nov. 14. 1960. As a six-year-old, Ruby Bridges famously became the first African American child to desegregate an all-white elementary school in the South. When the 1st grader walked to William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans on November 14, 1960 surrounded by a team of U.S. Marshals, she was met by a vicious mob shouting and throwing objects at her. One of the federal marshals, Charles Bu rks, who served on her escort team, recalls Bridges' courage in the face of such hatred: "For a little girl six years old going into a strange school with four strange deputy marshals, a place she had never been before, she showed a lot of courage. She never cried. She didn't whimper. She just marched along like a little soldier. We were all very proud of her." Once Ruby entered the school, she discovered that it was devoid of children because they had all been removed by their parents due to her presence. The only teacher willing to have Ruby as a student was Barbara Henry,...
