| Priscilla changed him. Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook announced he will donate his most of his fortune to charity. He and his wife are proud parents. |
The CEO of social media titan Facebook announced that he and his wife are proud parents of a baby daughter. He also announced that he's giving away 99% of his fortune to charity.
Mark Zuckerberg and Dr. Priscilla Chan announced the birth of their first child, they also announced they'd be giving away 99% of their Facebook stock—worth nearly $45 billion, CNN reports. Zuckerberg and Chan posted an extremely lengthy open letter to their daughter Max on Facebook Tuesday.
Read it below....
Dear Max,
Your mother and I don't yet have the words to describe the hope you give us for the future. Your new life is full of promise, and we hope you will be happy and healthy so you can explore it fully. You've already given us a reason to reflect on the world we hope you live in.
Like all parents, we want you to grow up in a world better than ours today.
While headlines often focus on what's wrong, in many ways the world is getting better. Health is improving. Poverty is shrinking. Knowledge is growing. People are connecting. Technological progress in every field means your life should be dramatically better than ours today.
| President Barack Obama holds a townhall with Facebook's CEO Mark Zuckerberg. |
We believe all lives have equal value, and that includes the many more people who will live in future generations than live today. Our society has an obligation to invest now to improve the lives of all those coming into this world, not just those already here.
But right now, we don't always collectively direct our resources at the biggest opportunities and problems your generation will face.
Consider disease. Today we spend about 50 times more as a society treating people who are sick than we invest in research so you won't get sick in the first place.
Medicine has only been a real science for less than 100 years, and we've already seen complete cures for some diseases and good progress for others. As technology accelerates, we have a real shot at preventing, curing or managing all or most of the rest in the next 100 years.
Today, most people die from five things -- heart disease, cancer, stroke, neurodegenerative and infectious diseases -- and we can make faster progress on these and other problems.
Once we recognize that your generation and your children's generation may not have to suffer from disease, we collectively have a responsibility to tilt our investments a bit more towards the future to make this reality. Your mother and I want to do our part.
Curing disease will take time. Over short periods of five or ten years, it may not seem like we're making much of a difference. But over the long term, seeds planted now will grow, and one day, you or your children will see what we can only imagine: a world without suffering from disease.
There are so many opportunities just like this. If society focuses more of its energy on these great challenges, we will leave your generation a much better world.
• • •
Our hopes for your generation focus on two ideas: advancing human potential and promoting equality.
Advancing human potential is about pushing the boundaries on how great a human life can be.
Can you learn and experience 100 times more than we do today?
Can our generation cure disease so you live much longer and healthier lives?
Can we connect the world so you have access to every idea, person and opportunity?
Can we harness more clean energy so you can invent things we can't conceive of today while protecting the environment?
Can we cultivate entrepreneurship so you can build any business and solve any challenge to grow peace and prosperity?
| Oprah Winfrey with New Jersey governor Chris Christie, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Mark Zuckerberg. |
Our society must do this not only for justice or charity, but for the greatness of human progress.
Today we are robbed of the potential so many have to offer. The only way to achieve our full potential is to channel the talents, ideas and contributions of every person in the world.
Can our generation eliminate poverty and hunger?
Can we provide everyone with basic healthcare?
Can we build inclusive and welcoming communities?
Can we nurture peaceful and understanding relationships between people of all nations?
Can we truly empower everyone -- women, children, underrepresented minorities, immigrants and the unconnected?
If our generation makes the right investments, the answer to each of these questions can be yes -- and hopefully within your lifetime.
• • •
This mission -- advancing human potential and promoting equality -- will require a new approach for all working towards these goals.
We must make long term investments over 25, 50 or even 100 years. The greatest challenges require very long time horizons and cannot be solved by short term thinking.
We must engage directly with the people we serve. We can't empower people if we don't understand the needs and desires of their communities.
We must build technology to make change. Many institutions invest money in these challenges, but most progress comes from productivity gains through innovation.
We must participate in policy and advocacy to shape debates. Many institutions are unwilling to do this, but progress must be supported by movements to be sustainable.
We must back the strongest and most independent leaders in each field. Partnering with experts is more effective for the mission than trying to lead efforts ourselves.
We must take risks today to learn lessons for tomorrow. We're early in our learning and many things we try won't work, but we'll listen and learn and keep improving.
• • •
Our experience with personalized learning, internet access, and community education and health has shaped our philosophy.
Our generation grew up in classrooms where we all learned the same things at the same pace regardless of our interests or needs.
Your generation will set goals for what you want to become -- like an engineer, health worker, writer or community leader. You'll have technology that understands how you learn best and where you need to focus. You'll advance quickly in subjects that interest you most, and get as much help as you need in your most challenging areas. You'll explore topics that aren't even offered in schools today.
Your teachers will also have better tools and data to help you achieve your goals.
Even better, students around the world will be able to use personalized learning tools over the internet, even if they don't live near good schools. Of course it will take more than technology to give everyone a fair start in life, but personalized learning can be one scalable way to give all children a better education and more equal opportunity.
We're starting to build this technology now, and the results are already promising. Not only do students perform better on tests, but they gain the skills and confidence to learn anything they want. And this journey is just beginning. The technology and teaching will rapidly improve every year you're in school.
| The Zuckerbergs with their daughter Max. |
But once we understand the world we can create for your generation, we have a responsibility as a society to focus our investments on the future to make this reality.
Together, we can do this. And when we do, personalized learning will not only help students in good schools, it will help provide more equal opportunity to anyone with an internet connection.
• • •
Many of the greatest opportunities for your generation will come from giving everyone access to the internet.
People often think of the internet as just for entertainment or communication. But for the majority of people in the world, the internet can be a lifeline.
It provides education if you don't live near a good school. It provides health information on how to avoid diseases or raise healthy children if you don't live near a doctor. It provides financial services if you don't live near a bank. It provides access to jobs and opportunities if you don't live in a good economy.
The internet is so important that for every 10 people who gain internet access, about one person is lifted out of poverty and about one new job is created.
Yet still more than half of the world's population -- more than 4 billion people -- don't have access to the internet.
If our generation connects them, we can lift hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. We can also help hundreds of millions of children get an education and save millions of lives by helping people avoid disease.
This is another long term effort that can be advanced by technology and partnership. It will take inventing new technology to make the internet more affordable and bring access to unconnected areas. It will take partnering with governments, non-profits and companies. It will take engaging with communities to understand what they need. Good people will have different views on the best path forward, and we will try many efforts before we succeed.
But together we can succeed and create a more equal world.
• • •
Technology can't solve problems by itself. Building a better world starts with building strong and healthy communities.
Children have the best opportunities when they can learn. And they learn best when they're healthy.
Health starts early -- with loving family, good nutrition and a safe, stable environment.
Children who face traumatic experiences early in life often develop less healthy minds and bodies. Studies show physical changes in brain development leading to lower cognitive ability.
Your mother is a doctor and educator, and she has seen this firsthand.
If you have an unhealthy childhood, it's difficult to reach your full potential.
If you have to wonder whether you'll have food or rent, or worry about abuse or crime, then it's difficult to reach your full potential.
If you fear you'll go to prison rather than college because of the color of your skin, or that your family will be deported because of your legal status, or that you may be a victim of violence because of your religion, sexual orientation or gender identity, then it's difficult to reach your full potential.
We need institutions that understand these issues are all connected. That's the philosophy of the new type of school your mother is building.
By partnering with schools, health centers, parent groups and local governments, and by ensuring all children are well fed and cared for starting young, we can start to treat these inequities as connected.
Only then can we collectively start to give everyone an equal opportunity.
It will take many years to fully develop this model. But it's another example of how advancing human potential and promoting equality are tightly linked. If we want either, we must first build inclusive and healthy communities.
• • •
For your generation to live in a better world, there is so much more our generation can do.
Today your mother and I are committing to spend our lives doing our small part to help solve these challenges. I will continue to serve as Facebook's CEO for many, many years to come, but these issues are too important to wait until you or we are older to begin this work. By starting at a young age, we hope to see compounding benefits throughout our lives.
As you begin the next generation of the Chan Zuckerberg family, we also begin the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to join people across the world to advance human potential and promote equality for all
children in the next generation. Our initial areas of focus will be personalized learning, curing disease, connecting people and building strong communities.
We will give 99% of our Facebook shares -- currently about $45 billion -- during our lives to advance this mission. We know this is a small contribution compared to all the resources and talents of those already working on these issues. But we want to do what we can, working alongside many others.
We'll share more details in the coming months once we settle into our new family rhythm and return from our maternity and paternity leaves. We understand you'll have many questions about why and how we're doing this.
As we become parents and enter this next chapter of our lives, we want to share our deep appreciation for everyone who makes this possible.
We can do this work only because we have a strong global community behind us. Building Facebook has created resources to improve the world for the next generation. Every member of the Facebook community is playing a part in this work.
We can make progress towards these opportunities only by standing on the shoulders of experts -- our mentors, partners and many incredible people whose contributions built these fields.
And we can only focus on serving this community and this mission because we are surrounded by loving family, supportive friends and amazing colleagues. We hope you will have such deep and inspiring relationships in your life too.
Max, we love you and feel a great responsibility to leave the world a better place for you and all children. We wish you a life filled with the same love, hope and joy you give us. We can't wait to see what you bring to this world.
Love,
Mom and Dad
Zuckerberg believes that his fortune could help people in need. And I applaud him and his wife for being generous. They feel that they can make a difference to those who are in need.
Of course, many conservatives and selfish rich folks bitch about how liberals want to take money to redistribute wealth.
They want liberal rich folks to shut the fuck up. The conservatives were bitching about Warren Buffet and Bill Gates giving away their fortunes to charity. They believe that liberals are destroying America by asking for the rich to pay a little more in taxes.
Conservatives don't see that the middle class is being wiped away. They too focus on trying to the rich even more richer and the poor even more dependent on the safety net. They will not give a leg up to those who struggled for a piece of the American pie.

| Woman got death threats for putting tape over her dog's mouth. |
You gotta wonder how far is too far when it comes to posting shit on the internet!
When people want to make others laugh, they post funny pictures or jokes. But sometimes, they cross the line between funny and absolutely stupid.
A Florida woman got shook after she posted on social media her dog's mouth being taped shut with duct tape.
Katie Brown is hiding somewhere in the country waiting for the heat to die down. She got a ton of death threats for her Facebook posting.
| Not funny. Just plain stupid. |
Cops in Avon say they were also overwhelmed with calls, while a spokesman for the sheriff's office in Volusia County, which includes South Daytona, tells the Daytona Beach News-Journal that while it is "great that everybody's concerned for the animals and for dogs," the deluge of calls and emails has "literally shut our police department down." Police in South Daytona say they've been told the dog is OK and add they're still trying to locate Brown, whose duct-tape photo had the caption, "This is what happens when you dont [sic] shut up!!!" The original post has now been deleted, but a follow-up one tells people not to "panic" because "it was only for a minute," NBC reports.

| Springfield tire company faces heat for posting on social media a video degrading a homeless Black man. |
What you put on the internet could end up being there forever. Given the situation that three men are facing, they regret posting on Facebook their taunting of a disabled Black homeless man.
She took it to WHIO-TV, Dayton's most watched news agitator.
In Springfield, Ohio, the workers over at Jim's Used Tires are facing some heat. They were recording this encounter with Allan Deonne Dubose, a local man who has special needs and is regarded as homeless in the community.
While on the job, a worker whips out his camera phone and two of his co-workers were taunting him by calling him "boy" and whistling at him like an animal. Then one of the workers grabbed an air compressor and shot a bit of air on Allan.
They posted it on social media and shared it with a few of their friends. Well a friend of friend saw this and was applauded by this.
She took it to WHIO-TV, Dayton's most watched news agitator.
When one of the residents who aids Allan saw that video, she went right into the faces of the workers and owner. She demanded that they apologize to Allan or face a boycott from residents.
| Allan Deonne Dubose thinks that the people who filmed him should grow up. |
Matreka Nache, who said she looks after Allan and lives in the neighborhood, said she approached the workers at the tire shop Thursday after seeing the video for the first time.
“Nobody deserves to be treated like that,” she said.
The shop’s owner, James Payton, calls what happened an ugly prank — the video was posted in May 2014 — and offered his apology to Allan and put his two workers on ice.
“We let him clean the trash out of the office, give him a little bit of change from time to time, coffee. They just got comfortable with him, in my opinion,” Payton said.
The owner said Allan has always been welcome at the shop and always will. He said he addressed the video months ago when he first saw it.
Thursday, he said the backlash has forced him to give the two employees the next two weeks off.
Allan said he thinks the men who pranked him should clean up their act, but he doesn’t want to see them punished.

| The world's largest social media website faces criticism for selective sympathy. |
The social media juggernaut is facing harsh criticism for being selective in how they cover tragedies.
The attacks in Paris attracted global attention. The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the Friday night attacks leaving over 130 dead. Now the law is searching for the ringleaders involved. They zeroed in on Belgium and are targeting sites in Syria which were strongholds for the extremist group.
Facebook showed solidarity to the victims by activating the "I'm Safe" function. The function activates whenever an emergency happens in the world.
What got people pissed at the social media giant, the tragedy in Beirut, Lebanon. There are people active on Facebook in Lebanon.
Earlier this month the Islamic State struck a marketplace in Beirut killing 43 people Thursday. Of course, we ignored that tragedy. The junk food media focused on Paris.
Mark Zuckerberg responds to the controversy. He at first was shocked that people were upset over the function. But he soon realized that Facebook screwed up.
| Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has to backtrack on the "I'm Safe" function. |
"Until yesterday, our policy was only to activate Safety Check for natural disasters. We just changed this and now plan to activate Safety Check for more human disasters going forward as well."
"Thank you to everyone who has reached out with questions and concerns about this. You are right that there are many other important conflicts in the world. We care about all people equally, and we will work hard to help people suffering in as many of these situations as we can."
"We care about all people equally, and we will work hard to help people suffering in as many of these situations as we can," said Zuckerberg.
Paris is a global city and considered an Alpha+ city.
The cities that the junk food media often see as potential targets of terrorism are New York, London, Paris, Washington, DC, Tokyo, Sydney, Berlin, Beijing, Moscow, Madrid, Mumbai, San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Beirut has experienced numerous massacres in the past two years. No mentions by the junk food media here in the United States.
We send our condolences to the victims of Paris, Beirut and Russian Jet tragedies.
We will cover the Paris tragedies as best as we can.

If you're on the social media and post something that could embarrass you or cost you your job, don't do it. Of course, most in law enforcement are aware of their social media policies. Unfortunately, they're not immune from public shaming.
Racists Get Fired is a blog on Tumblr that is extremely effective in outing social dissidents who still have hate in their hearts. Tipsters flag it and ask for the moderators to investigate who the person's employer and have the unceremonious firing of the cannon.
This North Charleston cop got himself fired out the cannon after he posted on Facebook his selfie wearing a pair of Confederate boxers.

| Wondering how many Black motorist were pulled over for a minor infraction that led to unwarranted police searches. |
“Your posting in this manner led to you being publicly identified as a North Charleston Police officer and associated both you and the Department with an image that symbolizes hate and oppression to a significant portion of the citizens we are sworn to serve,” Police Chief Eddie Driggers wrote, as reported by the junk food media.
This incident happened on Thursday.
This controversy appears in wake of that white terrorist killing nine in the Emmanuel AME Church in Charleston. A month ago, former officer Michael Slager was fired out the cannon and also indicted for murder. He opened fire on unarmed motorist Walter Scott after a routine pull over.

| Things you shouldn't do on social media. |
In the wake of a high profile mass shooting in South Carolina, some woman in Texas decided to make some political hay winds.
Thanks to Addicting Info, The Daily Dot and RacistGetFired for the tip.
Ashley Casey Martin claimed that she got jacked up by three assailants of the African decent. She and her daughter were shopping in a Texas Walmart and these disgusting criminals ruined it. Stop the press, here comes that asshat Colin Flaherty.
I bet that clown is running to the junk food media with his "gotcha" movement.
Not so fast, Colin. You've been stopped at the gate.
The junk food media outed your latest victim of "racial violence" and she may have concocted the injuries.
Martin who resides in Texarkana posted on social media that she got jacked up after she got into a confrontation with Black shoppers at a Walmart. According to her, they were cussing up a storm.
She told them to clam up. They got pissed. They gave the woman in a five finger knuckle sandwich.
| This extremist may have inspired Charleston terrorist. |
The Daily Dot was first to break this story. They got in contact with the Texarkana police and Walmart to see if any criminal charges were filed against the assailants.
They spoke with a security worker who said no incidents had been reported there within the past week.
The Daily Dot also showed the photos to Texarkana Police Department public information officer Mike Jones, who responded with an emailed statement.
| Ashley's response to critics who say she faked her injuries. |
So in other words, did this bitch lie about being attacked by Black men?
A defiant Martin said this clearly:
“Here is your police report. Sorry I got jumped by three African American young men. I have 2 black eyes and nose still is bleeding, and somehow I am in the wrong. Enough for people to say it was makeup, how embarassing and very rude quite frankly. I don’t want you pitty (sic) attention anything. I’m just warning there are dangerous people in Texarkana be careful. They did this to me for no reason in front of my 3 year old. At Texas side Walmart.”
She eventually scrubbed every freaking social media site she has her name attached too.
Ashley, look in the mirror, I think you may seen the danger! It's you!
Some interesting facts.
Texarkana is basically two cities that border Texas and Arkansas. The main road State Line Avenue divides the cities. The federal court building and post office sits on the state line. Texarkana is the midpoint towards the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and Little Rock through Interstate 30. Once completed Interstate 49 will continue through rural Arkansas and Texas. Portions of the interstate highway are segmented through Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Missouri. It will eventually connect from Kansas City to New Orleans. Future Interstate 69 will travel south of the cities and connect from Mexico to Canada.
Note: Walmart has pulled all items related to the Confederate flag from all stores in the United States.

| When injustices in America end, I will go home...! |
He gained fame by being an active protester in Ferguson. He's appeared in many high profile events in which law enforcement has used deadly force on unarmed suspects. He has appeared in areas where the not-so-subtle racism exist.
And now, DeRay McKesson has went to Charleston, South Carolina to protest the injustices.
Conservatives are pissed. So they went to the social media to create the #GoHomeDeray hashtag.
This hashtag became one of the most talked about on Twitter. Many conservatives have taken to Twitter to denounce McKesson, Rev. Perm and President Barack Obama. They believe that they "rush to judgement" when it came to the mass shooting at Mother Emmanuel AME Church.
The racist right believes that Dylann Roof's racial hatred towards Blacks wasn't a factor. But it's his mental illness, his drug use and his social ills. They believe that racism wasn't a factor to it. They believe its an attack on Christian beliefs.
Nine lives were lost when a White terrorist shot up a church. His social media unearth a trove of hatred. He shows pride in the Confederate flag and talked about the issues. He believes that Blacks are raping White women, causing havoc and taking over government. Rhetoric you may hear from agitators on talk radio, cable news and the blogs.
McKesson comes to Charleston to show solidarity with the victims. But to the racist right, he's there to start trouble. According to the social media trolls, the people of Charleston doesn't want him or Obama there.
Cue the irony. This is discussed by liberals and conservatives alike. Notice that McKesson did acknowledge this. He brushed off the criticism and told the junk food media that it's a part of a systematic strategy to shut down dissent.
DeRay took to Twitter and responded back to his critics.

| It's about time for me to put an end to my social media fixation. I am taking a long break from Facebook. |
It's time to end my reign on the world's most popular social media website.
I am not canceling my account for now. But I will eventually. I am getting tired of viewing everyone and anyone. I admit that I am jealous. I am jealous of everyone and everything.
I wanted to be with the "IT" crowd. I wanted to be "friends" with anyone and anybody!
My family, friends, ex-girlfriends, co-workers, and even my boss were friends on Facebook. I kept in touch with them through birthdays, anniversaries, new children, deaths and celebrations. I've posted on their walls about my life and how I'm doing! The more friends I've gotten, the better I felt. It's was one of the greatest feelings to be wanted.
Then I realized that I wasn't moving as fast as my friends and family. They're celebrating weddings, births, and new achievements. I haven't experienced any in the past four years. So I seen myself at a peak of jealous and depression.
Longing for the days of success, I seen myself as a failure!

I am angry with myself over this. I put so much into a huge waste of time. I felt that looking at others being happy kind of makes me sad. So I don't want to be sad. I will admit this. This social media can make me jealous.
So therefore, I am on a hiatus.
I want to thank my friends, family, co-workers and formers. I wish them well.
I am taking a long (and I mean long) break from Facebook.
I am too damn nice and willing to accept or take anything. I am not mad at her for lying and deceiving me during our time, I am too embarrassed to the tell someone how I feel about it.
I don't want to share my business with everyone on social media anymore.
Maybe here on this blog. But I have to generate enough people to view it.
Anyway, I have posted some time ago about the Facebook decline. The social media titian has over 1.4 billion subscribers.
The social network was founded by four Harvard students who wanted to keep in touch with classmates at the prestigious university. Who would of thought that this little experiment would become the world's most popular way to connect to people.
Now it's over 10 years and the social media website is still reigning on top. But it's on the downslide. Predicted in less than 5 years, the social media website will lose over 80% of active users.
Are you addicted to Facebook?
Do you get jealous of people when they share their relationships, new achievements and successes?

| You won't believe it! These are two cops with a suspect. The suspect is wearing antlers. |
Spreading racist emails, taking inappropriate pictures, doing unprofessional things on social media all the while wearing the badge is not an coincidence. It's a matter of common practice.
Will that annoying conservative agitator talk about this on his right wing carnival?
Nope. It doesn't fit the narrative to blame President Barack Obama. The president is passionately talking about the case for unity among the police and the communities they serve.
Psst...Obama's Black.
The president can testify to it. He was profiled by the police when he was a nobody. And for him to talk about the disparaging interactions between the Black community and the law, the conservatives claim it's anti-cop and racist.
This picture is of two former Chicago cops posing with a suspect. They decided wanted to share a funny picture with fellow officers. They decided to put antlers on the suspect and pose as two Elmer Fudds.
Real laugh riot.
The Chicago Sun-Times report that ex-cops Jerome Finnigan and Timothy McDermott were fired out the cannon after they were posing with this unidentified drug suspect.
Finnigan had already been fired out the cannon: In 2011, he was sentenced to 12 years in prison for leading a team of cops in robberies and home invasions. This may have inspired Chicago PD on NBC.
McDermott is fighting to wear the badge. He got a 5-4 decision in his cannon firing. The minority believe that it was a funny picture. The majority believe it's time to clean up the force.
This makes Chicago PD look like a bunch of idiots. Terrible.
Even in my community an idiot sheriff's deputy got his online fixation. He was on Twitter and had shared some inappropriate thoughts of the Baltimore riots in the wake of Freddie Gray's death.
Clark County Ohio sheriff Gene Kelly said that this deputy is fired out the cannon.
| Zach Davis got fired out the cannon. |
Davis said that the Baltimore riots were a "real life Planet of the Apes". And to make it worse, he said that rioters are “ignorant young people” who deserve “every stereotype they've ever been labeled.”
When confronted with his post, Davis confessed and was immediately fired out the cannon.
Kelly said that Davis "did not believe he was racist" for publishing such comments.
The letter sent to the sheriff's office expressed concerns over the "insensitivity, hostility, and maliciousness" reflected in the tweets, and stated that such derogatory statements are unacceptable under any circumstances but especially troubling coming from a deputy who "holds the power of the state."
"Davis’s tweets are offensive, inappropriate, and inhumane for the way they treat the black citizens of Baltimore, striping them of their humanity and rendering them 'apes' who should be 'slayed' to be taught a lesson," the letter reads.
Davis joined the force in April. Kelly said he has met with the local NAACP president, who supports his decision.
"I’ve done everything I can do to try and correct this problem," Kelly said. "It hurts us and this community and there’s no place for it."
Now all deputies in Clark County will have to go through sensitivity training. They will now be forced to limit their social media connections and associations.
The power of Facebook and Twitter. Whenever you post something online, it's there forever.
Understand no one is safe from being fired out the cannon. But if you take steps to prevent your business from being out there, make it private and don't jeopardize your job by talking about it.

| If you Google, Obama, what would you find? I can tell you many offensive themes. |
Google, Apple, Facebook and Twitter are disputing with the White House over its internet policies. I guess someone over at Google, the sponsor of this blog got pissed and GOOGLE bombed the Maps.
If you Google, NIGGER and HOUSE on the Maps, it directs you to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, DC.
The first Black president lives there.
If you Google, NIGGER and KING on the Maps, it directs you to President Barack Obama's residence in Chicago or Washington, DC.
| The Guardian screenshot the map. |
Google apologized for it. This isn't the first or the last. Last time, the images of the Obamas were tagged to primates. The other time was a website using a photo shopped image of a gorilla having sex with First Lady Michelle Obama. And recently, the Android mascot was urinating on an Apple logo.
Hey, Google!
Do something about Chrome too! I am tired of getting them Shockwave Flash "not responding" error messages. Matter of fact, I am tired of YouTube videos with too many god damn ads on them. And I am not a fan of the new Maps.
I am kind of bitter because Google suspended my ad venue account because of racist agitators messing with my YouTube account.
Stupidity on the tech front coming your way out of Mountain View.

| @POTUS |
It seems like the curtain is pulled over again. President Barack Obama jumps onto Twitter. So all that coming from the official Barack Obama Twitter and Facebook accounts were done by his staffers.
Even the signed by "B.O." It was done by staffers.
So who thought he had the time to jump onto Twitter?
The Secret Service clears the way for the president to create an account. Of course, he introduces himself to the Twitter world.
Hello, Twitter! It's Barack. Really! Six years in, they're finally giving me my own account.— President Obama (@POTUS) May 18, 2015I mean when he has he ever been able to promoting himself?
Who was sending those mailers, email shouts and videos? I thought it was done by him.
Do you actually believe that?
Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States is a very busy guy. I mean he running a country of 322 million people. He controls the nation's military. He is the leader of the free world. He had to be a father 24/7, a husband, a man who has to promote a vision for the country.
Despite his critics attacking him constantly over the most trivial things, Barack manages to brush off the noise and keep it moving forward.
He signs legislation into law. Why would I believe that he jumps onto Twitter and post "I am eating cereal and watching Sportscenter" on the social media?
He doesn't get enough time to jump onto the social media. With all the things going on. I mean the president works 24/7 and doesn't really get a break.
So what did the president do when he was on Twitter?
He tells the public that he made an executive order on police requesting military style weaponry.
The president believes that the police using military arsenal gives communities a sense of distrust towards them.
He traveled to Camden, NJ to talk about the need for police reform, transportation reform (in wake of neighboring Philadelphia and the tragic train crash) and empowerment.
Soon we will address the racist and threaten messages sent to the president.
