The President Of Brazil Has Some Harsh Words For White People With Blue Eyes!


The president of Brazil is fighting mad over the economic woes that the world is experiencing right now!And he's using fighting words to get other people just as fired up!He sounds more than ridiculous when he blames "white people with blue eyes" for the economic crisis! I mean,did he do a survey? I'm not sure anyone really knows exactly what & who caused this worldwide financial meltdown!

Here's more on what President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said from CNBC:

"Brazil's president blamed "white people with blue eyes" for the world economic crisis and said it was wrong that developing countries should pay for mistakes made in richer countries, sparking accusations of racism.

President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who has criticized the European Union and the US for tariffs on products from developing countries and has advocated a bigger say for developing countries in decisions on the world economy, pointed a finger to Western bankers."

"This crisis was caused by the irrational behavior of white people with blue eyes, who thought they knew everything and now show they know nothing," Lula da Silva said after a meeting with the UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown in the country's capital of Brasilia.

Lula da Silva's comments were widely reported in the press and drew charges of racism from message boards and CNBC viewers."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

Why Was That Cop So Insensitive To The Fact That Ryan Moat's Mother-In-Law Was Dying?


I think that this cop's attitude was absolutely horrific & inexplicable! He treated Ryan Moat like an enemy!This is how a lot of police treat black people.Why was this cop pulling a gun out? For what,please?!! And once he found out why the traffic violation occurred,how come his demeanor didn't change one bit? I think it's because he could have cared less about their situation. Why he was so insensitive to the fact that Ryan Moat's mother-in-law was dying is something that this cop only knows!We can all draw our own conclusions!

At least the Dallas police chief showed some sensitivity & apologized for this heartless cop's actions! Here's more on that from the Dallas News:

"As a storm of outrage gathered over his department, Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle called a news conference Thursday to apologize for the behavior of an officer who detained a distressed family outside a hospital emergency room.

Kunkle said Officer Robert Powell had been placed on paid administrative leave in connection with the incident last week, in which he stopped a family rushing to visit a dying mother, keeping them for 13 minutes to write a traffic ticket. The woman died before two of the family members were able to see her.

"I am embarrassed and disappointed by the behavior of one of our police officers," the chief told a packed audience of media outlets that included Inside Edition. "His behavior, in my opinion, did not exhibit the common sense, discretion, the compassion that we expect our officers to exhibit."

During the traffic stop, caught on the officer's in-car camera, Powell berated the driver, 26-year-old NFL running back Ryan Moats, and threatened him with arrest for running a traffic light.

After seeing the video earlier this week, several senior police commanders knew they had a public relations crisis on their hands. A Plano police officer who was present at the March 17 incident had reported it to a superior, who had reported it to a Dallas police supervisor."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.

Paternity Issue: Alfie Patten Is Actually Not A 13-yr. Old Dad!


Alfie Patten claimed that he was the father of a baby at the age of 13! Of course,that sparked a lot of controversy & media frenzy!I personally found his father to be a reprehensible parent who seemed to be only interested in generating as much money from his son as possible.Now,it turns out that the Alfie Patten was not the father of that baby.That makes me wonder if it was all just a ruse!Here's more from news.com.au:

"A DNA test showed a 13-year-old boy in Britain is not the father of a baby born to a 15-year-old he had unprotected sex with once.

Chantelle Stedman told Alfie Patten, who was 12 when he slept with her, he was her newborn daughter Maisie's father.

The story caused a worldwide media frenzy after it was first reported by Britain's Sun newspaper, while politicians criticised what they called Britain's declining morals.

At first Stedman said Patten was the only boy she had ever slept with, but soon after other teens came forward saying they too could be the baby's father, because they claimed to have had sex with the girl.

It is still not clear who the baby's father is.

Last month a friend of the Stedman family claimed Patten was scammed by the girl's parents who wanted to cash in on the sensational story."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
