SHOCKING NEWS: Will Smith Dead

This is terrible news:

Former NFL defensive lineman Will Smith was shot and killed in an apparent road rage incident in New Orleans late Saturday, authorities said.

New Orleans Coroner Jeffrey C. Rouse confirmed early Sunday the male victim in the double shooting was Smith, 34, according to WVUE-TV. Police said the shooting occurred around 11:30 p.m. in the Lower Garden District at the intersection of Sophie Wright Place and Felicity Streets.

The alleged gunman, Cardell Hayes, 29, was charged with second-degree murder on Sunday.

Investigators said Smith and his wife were driving a Mercedes Benz SUV eastbound on Sophie Wright Place when he was rear-ended by an individual driving a Hummer H2. The collision caused the Mercedes to hit a Chevrolet Impala traveling along the same street, The New Orleans Times-Picayune reported.

New Orleans Police Department spokesman Juan Barnes said Smith and the driver of the Hummer got into a confrontation over the accident when the driver of the Hummer pulled out a handgun and “shot (Smith) multiple times and his wife twice in the right leg.”

This is an unspeakable tragedy. Smith spent his entire career with the Saints and was part of their 2010 Super Bowl Championship squad. He is survived by his wife and three children.

How Well Do You Know About Ted Cruz's History or Policies?

By Thornton Crowe

Everyone sees on the news the bickering going back and forth between Cruz and Donald Trump now days. It's no secret that Trump believes Cruz is a liar. Lyin' Ted. But have you ever asked yourselves why this moniker has taken on a life of it's own?

Let's forget about the sex scandal articles in the National Enquirer, the DC Madam scandal and the bashing about his nefarious allegiance to a minister who wants to execute gays. There's more to this situation than most would like to admit. And it's time, if you really wanted to be an informed, responsible voter, you investigated as I did why Ted Cruz shouldn't become our President in any way.

Gunman in robbery of pizza driver, Tyran Drummond, killed in crash into tree

SALISBURY, MD. – Wicomico Sheriff Mike Lewis reports the death of convicted armed robber and ex-con Tyran Deangelo Drummond, who crashed into a tree on Johnson Road in Salisbury, Md. On April 4, 2016.

Sheriff Lewis reports that deputies responded to a call for a wreck at about 10:45 pm and found the driver dead at the scene. There were no other occupants of the vehicle. Any witness to the crash is asked to call 410-548-4891.

Toxicology reports generally take several weeks to reveal any blood alcohol content in the deceased’s system, as he had a record of driving while impaired.

On June 6, 2015, Drummond was arrested for DUI and negligent driving in a careless and imprudent manner while endangering life, property, and person, by Maryland State Trooper M. Johnson as he traveled on Civic Ave., at Rt. 50 in Salisbury. Wicomico County States Attorney Matthew Maciarello agreed to a plea deal on Feb. 22, 2016, to Probation Before Judgment with a fine of $342.50 and no time in jail.

MURDER INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY IN WICOMICO COUNTY

(SALISBURY, MD) — State, county and city police in Wicomico County are searching this morning for the person or persons responsible for an overnight shooting that left one man dead.

The victim is identified as Irvonte C. Jones, 24, of Salisbury, Md. Jones was pronounced dead after being transported to Peninsula Regional Medical Center. His body was transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore for an autopsy.

Shortly before 10:00 p.m. yesterday, troopers from the Salisbury Barrack were dispatched to the 1000-block of Pierce Avenue, Salisbury, for a reported shooting. Troopers met the owner of the single family home, who said she had just arrived at the residence and found her boyfriend, Jones, lying unresponsive in a bedroom. Jones had sustained what appeared to be multiple gunshot wounds and was transported by EMS personnel to the hospital.

Maryland State Police Homicide Unit investigators responded to conduct the investigation. State Police crime scene technicians spent the night processing the scene for evidence, after a search warrant was obtained. Investigators continue to interview neighbors and family members. A member of the Wicomico County State’s Attorney’s Office responded to the scene and continues to work with investigators. Additional assistance is being provided by the Wicomico County Bureau of Investigation and the State Police Gang Enforcement Unit.

The preliminary investigation indicates Jones was alone in the home when he was shot. A suspect description has not been developed at this time. A motive has not been identified. It is unclear yet if the person or persons responsible forced their way into the home, or were let in by the victim.

State Police investigators urge anyone with information about this victim or the person(s) responsible for his death to contact Lower Eastern Shore Crime Solvers at 410-548-1776, or the Salisbury Barrack at 410-749-3101. Callers may remain anonymous.

Publishers Notes: When we learned of this incident last night the call came in saying "SFD going to Pierce Ave (off of East Lincoln Ave) for a self inflicted shooting". When they were transporting him to the hospital they said he had been shot 3 times.......since the press release is calling it a murder, (above) it wasn't self inflicted after all.

This was also put out there -

Exonerated Teacher Exits Education

Having proven my innocence in a court of law, I have formally tendered my resignation to Worcester County Public Schools. I have decided that it is now time for me to move on to another career outside the field of public education.

On Friday, March 18, 2016 a Worcester County Circuit Court judge threw out 2 cases, accounting for 12 of the 24 charges against me. After about ninety minutes of deliberation, I was found not guilty of the other 2 cases and those 12 counts by a unanimous jury.

I have lost so much that is irreplaceable. I can not begin to convey the extent of those losses or the magnitude of devastation that being branded by these falsehoods has wrought. It will be a life long struggle to repair the damage and rebuild my reputation and my life.

My wife and I are extremely grateful to the parents, students, friends, family, churches, and other community members who stood by us and showed their support. Times like these reveal who your true friends are and they mean the world to us, forever having a place in our hearts.

I implore WCPS and all school districts to install cameras in all classrooms, for the protection of both teachers and students, and to prevent potential future incidents of false allegations.

Sincerely,

William A. Cathell, Jr

Don't You Ever Wonder What Other Countries Now Think Of America?

I could really blast the heck out of this article but between the title and the images, I think all of you know where I'm headed.

Hillary Clinton should also be a topic here with her history in politics, being investigated and yet a front runner in the Presidential race.

I think you Liberals should take a good hard look at some of the images above. When the Kardashian's are more recognized than our current President, we have a problem. 

We're no longer respected, we're a JOKE! And you Liberals wonder why we support a man like Donald Trump. We do need to "Make America Great Again."

No Matter What Anyone Says, This Is Cool And Great For Salisbury

When it comes to economic development, Salisbury University is proving they are committed to Salisbury.

This incredible facility is a massive investment and quite frankly, very cool.

With only a hand full of major players/businesses in the Salisbury area, allowing expansions like this is vital to Salisbury's future. It encourages interest in the growth of several sports, (many of which SU is very good at) and recruiting top ranked players.

So what does that mean, bigger crowds. Bigger sales. Hotel rooms. Food/Restaurant sales. Tips. 

So before people knock it, respect what SU brings to the local economy. Remember that PRMC had taxpayers pay for the demolition of the old Daily Times building. 

Subject: Black Lives Matter organizer: Black-on-black crime is a ‘myth’

An organizer for the Black Lives Matter movement suggested Thursday on CNN that the problem of black-on-black crime is a “myth,” saying the activist movement is focusing on resolving broader issues of systemic violence.

During a discussion about a Facebook video posted by former NFL great Ray Lewis that questions the focus of the Black Lives Matter movement, Aaron Goggans dismissed the notion of black-on-black crime.

“It’s important to talk about the myth of black-on-black crime. It’s just that — a myth,” Mr. Goggans, a Black Lives Matter organizer in Washington, D.C., told CNN’s Carol Costello.

When pressed on his statement, Mr. Goggans backtracked and admitted that black-on-black crime does exist, and insisted that the movement is focused on resolving that issue.

“I’m saying that inter-community crime happens in all communities across the country and it is a problem that the movement of Black Lives Matter is focusing on,” he said.

“The movement is also focusing on state-sanctioned violence, which is a different thing,” Mr. Goggans continued. “It’s not just a few white cops killing a few unarmed black men. It’s actually the state systematically creating systems that are killing black people, both black women, black children, black men, black queer, black trans and black gender-nonconforming folks, and that’s the issue that I think Ray Lewis didn’t talk about in his video.”

Megyn Kelly on Potentially Leaving Fox: 'Never Say Never'

Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly said in an interview published this week she would not rule out leaving the network when her contract expires at the end of next year.

Kelly sat down with Variety and spent some time talking about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and the personal attacks he's directed at her.

When asked about her contract with Fox, Kelly said she has not decided what she'll do.

"Never say never. I don't know what's going to happen. I've had a great 12 years here, and I really like working for Roger Ailes. I really like my show, and I love my team. But you know, there's a lot of brain damage that comes from the job," she said.
