I'll admit it. I do tend to pontificate on numerous and varied things from time to time. Often I'm asked for my opinion, many times I have one. (Other times I really don't) Sometimes I get asked the same thing over and over again. Here are the things that after this post, you need not ask me about again...
1) The Trayvon Martin trail - I posted about the horrific tragedy that is Trayvon Martin's murder before it became front page news. My opinion has not and will not change. George Zimmerman is a racist asshole killer who gunned down a defenseless child for being the wrong color in the wrong place at the wrong time. Unless we are considering Skittles a weapon of mass destruction. :-/ To add injury to insult, Zimmerman has hired equally morally-deficient counsel who intend to murder Trayvon all over again through victim-blaming, playing to racist stereotypes and anything they can come up with to muddy the jury pool. I hate this type of character lynching like Rush Limbaugh hates the truth (and a salad) and no, I'm not here for it. At all. So you can put that one to bed. At no time will I suddenly believe that Zimmerman was justified in killing that boy. At. No. Time.
Any questions? Next...
2) Angelina Jolie's ta-tas: Listen here, BougieMom survived breast cancer twice. I wouldn't wish what she went through upon anybody. Not any living being. Her blessings were multiple but the largest two came in early detection, aggressive treatment and the fact that she had the "less lethal" (yes, someone actually referred to it as such) form of breast cancer. If I was told that I had a 85% chance of getting what she had, they could have the girls tomorrow. Just take them. Before they kill me. Cancer runs in my mother's family and it's something all of us stay vigilant about. Angelina's mother dies of ovarian cancer, her aunt just passed of breast cancer. Her decision to have a double mastectomy now and an oophorectomy (ovarian removal, yes I had to look it up) this summer could not have been easy but she deemed it necessary to prolong her life expectancy. How do people have a problem with that? She has a gajillion kids who need a mom. Moving beyond the medical realities of the situation - who in the hell feels it's their right to scold or judge Angelina for what she chooses to do with her body? Her boobs are not our business, celebrity or not. And for the uninformed about BRCA mutations, please read before you speak up on it.
3) Tyler Freaking Perry's new shows on OWN - Ya'll, really? If you like his work and wish to support it, do you. I think I've been clear on his writing style and my opinion of said skill set. And that's I have to say about that. Quit asking.
