You can get with this or...Following the question asked with that classic line the crew circles back to the "entanglement" of 2020 as well as the conspiracies and conflict that surrounds wearing a mask and sending young scholars back to the classroom in the middle of this pandemic. It's been far too long since the untimely MURDER of the Young Queen Breonna Taylor and her killers are still roaming free, plus another young gentle soul was taken at the hands of the people aimed to "protect and serv...

Comedians and celebrities using their platform to spark discussion and thought. Another Black life ended recklessly at the hands of those who are supposed to "protect and serve". This one comes with more layers to trigger the closet (or not so much) racists who feel past indiscretions justify these murders. Why does the "All Lives Matter" crowd, not understand that All does not equal Most? Can't scream "All Lives Matter" but be silent or against on "Black Lives Matter", claiming ignorance will n...
