You can’t detain a 5 year old child.
If a masked man grabs a kid off the street and puts him in an unmarked car… that’s kidnapping.
If that child is then sent to another state? That’s trafficking.
Language matters here.
What happened to Liam Ramos should outrage us all.
She was not wrong.
She was afraid people would rewrite history so she saved over 30 years of TV history on 71,000 VHS Tapes. She at one time maintained nine apartments to store her tapes.
Marion Stokes recorded television nonstop for over 30 years, documenting news, local programs, commercials, sitcoms, and late-night shows.
She began in the 1970s and continued until her death in 2012, using up to eight machines to capture multiple channels like CNN, Fox News, and C-SPAN.
Her goal was to save history and help people find the truth in media. She believed TV networks were throwing away their own archives, but she wanted to save everything as a resource so anyone could look back and check the facts.
She used her own money to fund the project. She became wealthy because she invested in Apple early on.
After she died, her son donated her recordings to the Internet Archive, so one day the public will be able to search and watch this whole record of television history.
The Internet archive claims the exact number tapes are 71,716.
Distressed father appears emotional after revealing the General Manager of Cumberland Mall in Atlanta told him his wheelchair bound son with cerebral palsy had to leave the mall.
“You had the general manager of the mall tell us that my son cannot be in the mall with us this weekend. He’s a part of our company. He’s my son and my family. I find that to be very discriminatory.”
The father, who is the CEO of sanitary company Reign Pads, appeared on the verge of tears as he revealed his son who was working as an employee at his vendor stall inside the mall was told to leave by the malls manager.
“If my son cannot stay. Then we cannot stay. We leaving the mall.”
Emily Ratajkowski says she’s ‘disgusted’ by the Blue Origin space trip:
“Look at the state of the world and think about how many resources went into putting these women in space… for what?”
This really is heartbreaking. Like I legit am so upset for him. ☹️☹️ i hope this pops up in Beyoncé’s camp somehow and even the smallest gesture could make his day. #RenaissanceWorldTour
NEW: The Clay County prosecutor has charged 84-year-old Andrew Lester in the shooting of Ralph Yarl, a 16-year-old Black boy in Kansas City who went to the wrong address to pick up his siblings last week.
The prosecutor announced that Lester has been charged with first-degree assault and armed criminal action. A warrant has been issued for the man’s arrest; his bond has been set at $200,000.
GREAT NEWS: Ralph Yarl, who was shot TWICE (once in the head) for ringing the wrong doorbell, has been released from the hospital and should recover fully.
GET WELL SOON, RALPH!🙏💙
BONUS NEWS: Andrew Lester, the racist fucker who shot him, is being hit with 2 felony charges of assault in the first degree and armed criminal action.
Ralph Yarl, age 16, knocked on the wrong door in Missouri and was shot.
He went to the door at the wrong home to pick up his younger twin brother and that’s when he was shot, according to police.
CBS affiliate KCTV reports: “The correct address Yarl was attempting to go to was a block away. According to the victim’s Aunt, Faith Spoonmore, the homeowner opened his door and then opened fire on Yarl. The man, whose identity has not been released yet, allegedly took a second shot at Yarl, hitting him in the head again.”
According to KSHB TV: “Yarl was shot by a homeowner after mistakenly arriving at the wrong address — 1100 block of Northeast 115th Street instead of 1100 block of Northeast 115th Terrace.”
The shooting happened April 13th.
The shooter was held by police for 24 hours, pending investigation, but then released.
“I want everyone to know that I am listening,” Kansas City police chief Stacy Graves said at a news conference at Kansas City police headquarters downtown, “and I understand the concern we are receiving from the community.”
“Yarl is the utmost example of how you want a young man to carry himself in this world,” said one of the teen’s longtime teachers to the Kansas City Star. Meara Mitchell, a teacher of Yarl’s for several years, called his shooting “incomprehensible.” She described him Sunday as a “stellar human-being” with a “quiet fortitude.”
KCTV 5 adds: “Yarl is a section leader in his school’s marching band and is said to be a top-base clarinet player in the state of Missouri.”
