Dunkin’ Donuts? No, Stabbin’ Donuts!

Posted on | June 11, 2021 | Comments Off on Dunkin’ Donuts? No, Stabbin’ Donuts!

Say hello to Marquavis “Dae Dae” Goolsby, 28, who is both (a) a popular rapper in the Atlanta area and (b) accused of aggravated assault, also (c) not inclined to take “no” for an answer. Like, if this guy comes through your drive-thru line at Dunkin’ Donuts, you’d better pray you’re not out of his favorite pastry, or he’ll stab you — allegedly, I hasten to add:

An Atlanta rapper wanted in connection to a violent stabbing at a Dunkin’ Donuts last year is behind bars, Georgia authorities say.
Marquavis Goolsby, best known by his stage name Dae Dae, was arrested Wednesday on aggravated assault charges, according to Union City Police. He was booked into the Fulton County Jail, where he remained as of Thursday.
Earlier this month, authorities named the 28-year-old as a suspect in the December attack at the Union City shop that left a teen employee with a gash to her arm, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. The stabbing was allegedly sparked by the rapper “not being able to get what he wanted,” according to an incident report obtained by McClatchy News.
“The crazy thing about the entire exchange is that, I believe that he wanted a certain type of donut, or donuts, and they did not have those donuts, apparently,” Kamau Mason, an attorney for the Dunkin’ worker, told WGCL.
Officers arrived to the restaurant at 6 p.m. on Dec. 5 in response to a call about the fight, according to the incident report. A 17-year-old worker told police a man came through the drive-thru and grew upset when they were out of a particular item.
The man sped off but came back a short time later, and he started arguing with employees inside the store, the worker said. Things took a violent turn when the man pulled out a knife and proceeded to swing it at the girl in uniform.
Part of the attack was captured on cell phone video.

So who is Dae Dae, anyway?

This is not Goolsby’s first brush with the law. In 2018, he was arrested on stolen gun and drug charges, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported.
Goolsby was a passenger in a Chevrolet Tahoe that was pulled over for speeding in Greene County. A representative from the Greene sheriff’s office told the AJC at the time that deputies searched the car and found marijuana and a stolen gun. Goolsby claimed that he didn’t know the gun was stolen, the AJC reported.
Goolsby, who has not released new music since 2019, remains best known for his 2016 song “Wat U Mean (Aye Aye Aye),” which he remixed with Lil Yachty the same year. He also released an album in 2016 with Atlanta producer London Tyler Holmes, aka London on da Track, which featured an appearance by 21 Savage.
“Wat U Mean” has racked up more than 54 million streams on Spotify, where he has a monthly average of more than 230,000 listeners. Although his last YouTube upload is more than a year old, he has 214,000 subscribers on the platform.

Just driving around at high speed with dope and a stolen gun which, of course, he didn’t know was stolen. A real honor student, this guy.

The rapper claims he’s being framed, because police are racist or whatever. Just make sure you got the right donuts when he shows up, because you wouldn’t want to get (allegedly) stabbed.

By the way, “local rapper” seems to be rather a dangerous occupation:

Ilhan Omar Quacks Like a Duck

Posted on | June 11, 2021 | Comments Off on Ilhan Omar Quacks Like a Duck

Some people say Jews are too paranoid about anti-Semitism, but given the history, can you blame them? Should they remain silent while the Democratic Party is taken over by “progressive” Jew-haters?

A dozen Jewish Democrat House members are calling out Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) for her comparison of the United States and Israel to Hamas terrorists.
Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL) led the coalition that includes Reps. Jake Auchincloss (D-MA), Ted Deutch (D-FL), Lois Frankel (D-FL), Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Elaine Luria (D-VA), Kathy Manning (D-NC), Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Dean Phillips (D-MN), Kim Schrier (D-WA), Brad Sherman (D-CA), and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and issued the following statement:

Equating the United States and Israel to Hamas and the Taliban is as offensive as it is misguided. Ignoring the differences between democracies governed by the rule of law and contemptible organizations that engage in terrorism at best discredits one’s intended argument and at worst reflects deep-seated prejudice.
The United States and Israel are imperfect and, like all democracies, at times deserving of critique, but false equivalencies give cover to terrorist groups. We urge Congresswoman Omar to clarify her words placing the U.S. and Israel in the same category as Hamas and the Taliban.

Omar made the remarks while questioning Secretary of State Antony Blinken during a hearing and expanded on them on Twitter Monday . . .

This is a problem caused by our immigration policy. Beginning in the 1990s, America took in many thousands of refugees from Somalia, and guess what they brought with them? The same evil culture of hatred that had turned their country into one of the worst Third World hellholes.

If you had told me 30 years ago that Minnesota would elect to Congress someone like Ilhan Omar, I would have thought you were crazy. Her presence in Congress is not only a stain on the reputation of Minnesota, but also on the Democratic Party in general. How can it be that, in a congressional district of more than 700,000 people, Democrats could not find any decent, intelligent person to nominate to Congress?

But how many congressional districts could we say the same about? Certainly the 14th District of New York comes to mind:

Pretty sick & tired of the constant vilification, intentional mischaracterization, and public targeting of @IlhanMN coming from our caucus.

They have no concept for the danger they put her in by skipping private conversations & leaping to fueling targeted news cycles around her.

— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) June 10, 2021

Wait a minute, you dimwit: Who is vilifying whom here?

Who is putting whom in danger?

Oh, that would be Ilhan Omar, vilifying Israel and putting Israeli lives in danger from her Jew-hating Hama terrorist allies. Democrats are on the wrong side of Genesis 12:3, and ought to fear God’s wrath.

Hit My Mother-in-Law’s Tip Jar?

Posted on | June 10, 2021 | Comments Off on Hit My Mother-in-Law’s Tip Jar?

Of all the tip-jar rattles I’ve ever done, this is the most special: My wife’s mother, now 80 and having recently undergone knee replacement surgery, will be doing a 5K Saturday — the Walk for Life to benefit Richland Pregnancy Services, a pro-life ministry in Mansfield, Ohio.

CLICK HERE TO DONATE

My mother-in-law is a very special woman, the mother of six children, she also adopted one of her nieces, and now has 24 grandchildren, as well as a growing number of great-grandchildren.

CLICK HERE TO DONATE

In addition to being the honored matron of her own family, my mother-in-law is also the bulwark of the Galion Seventh-Day Adventist Church, in whose behalf she will be undertaking Saturday’s 5K. Let me inform you a bit about the cause she’s raising money for:

The Walk for Life is a family-friendly event that supports Richland Pregnancy Services in offering free pregnancy testing, limited ultrasound, STD testing, abstinence education, parenting classes, mentoring, material support and more. . . .
Richland Pregnancy Services aims to raise $20,000 at this year’s Walk for Life.
Richland Pregnancy Services is a faith based 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

As of midnight, my mother-in-law had nearly reached her original goal of raising $400, but is $400 really enough for such a worthy cause? No, we can exceed that many times over because I know our readers are pro-life and what better way than to do something that will directly benefit young mothers in the heartland state of Ohio? Richland Pregnancy Services really does a lot to help these families — when they say “material support,” they mean it — which is why my mother-in-law with her surgically-rehabbed knees is going to be walking more than three miles to raise money for them. And I think you all know that the Five Most Important Words in the English Language apply.

CLICK HERE TO DONATE

Thanks in advance, on behalf of the babies whose lives you can save.

Whose ‘Democracy’ Is This?

Posted on | June 9, 2021 | Comments Off on Whose ‘Democracy’ Is This?

Since January 6, every liberal on cable TV news has been declaring that “our democracy” is endangered by Trump voters who don’t believe Joe Biden won the election fairly. The latest outburst, by New York Times columnist Mara Gay, depicted the American flag as a racist symbol of this alleged threat to “our democracy.” Having spent some time studying this problem, I finally located the root of the error:

Our liberty as Americans did not begin with the Declaration to which John Hancock and others affixed their signatures in July 1776. Rather, our rights can be traced to England as far back as the reign of King John, whom the barons compelled to sign the Magna Carta at Runnymede in 1215. Over the course of the ensuing four centuries, before the first permanent English colony in the present-day United States was established, the limitations of royal power and the rights of His Majesty’s subjects had been developed in English law. It is this history that explains why, when the American colonists began to assert their right to self-government in the 1760s, their rallying cry was “No taxation without representation.”
Have our schools stopped teaching this history? When I was a schoolboy, our teachers made this point clear to us: the Stamp Act of 1765 was the spark that lit the flame of American liberty because it was understood by the colonists as a violation of their rights as Englishmen. . . .

Read the rest of my latest column at The American Spectator.
