“His voice was like a Stradivarius violin: one of the greatest instruments ever made. He could interpret any given set of words better than anybody I've ever heard-You'd have to go back to Hank Williams or Ernest Tubb to compare, & he may have outdone them both."
-Hag, on Jones
Whoever thought that almost 250 years to the day we would be more sure than ever that the Declaration of Independence from England was the smartest move in the history of modern civilization?

The child wasn't breathing, and Simmonds began life-saving CPR at the scene until the boy regained consciousness.

Thank you for the advice, sir . I am humbly aware that offensive language is the real issue in politics today. Who cares about fixed elections, crime, or child trafficking, when offensive syntax should clearly be seen as our real enemy?
Just kidding. Eat shit.

I have truly awful news...
A 17-year-old Black male allegedly m*rdered an elderly White couple in their own home in rural Mississippi...
...and then opened fire on 4 sheriff's deputies AND AN INFANT!!!!
He shot at a BABY!!!
Their names were Billy and Virginia Blair. He was 74. She was 71.
They were high-school sweethearts and owned a tire shop together, their pastor called them "the sweetest couple," people who "loved the Lord."
In broad daylight, a 17-year-old broke into their home and m*rdered them both.
Police say the suspect opened fire on FOUR officers... and an INFANT at the scene.
All of them were hit.
By the grace of God, all miraculously survived.
The 17-year-old now faces 13 felonies, including TWO counts of capital m*rder.
A judge denied him bond.
Billy and Virginia Blair survived everything life threw at them for over 70 years...
...only to be murdered in the one place they should have been safest.
Their own home.
Say their names.
Billy and Virginia Blair.
I have the worst news...
A North Carolina father, Lester Jones, has been k*lled after he heard his 16-year-old daughter being beaten by her boyfriend with a pistol.
The father stepped between her and the gun, shielding his daughter from the bullets, ultimately giving his life to save her as the boyfriend opened fire, k*lling him.
His daughter survived due to her father's intervention, but is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.
Police say Lester's daughter's 17-year-old boyfriend punched her in the face and pistol-whipped her with a 9mm handgun in Concord, NC.
The father stepped in between them to protect her, taking multiple rounds himself, ultimately giving his life to save her.
The 17 year old, Keshaun Tirrell Degraffenreid, ran from police, but was eventually caught and has been charged with m*rder.
Due to Iryna's Law, he is being held in prison and will not get out. Please pray for the family and for the recovery of Lester's daughter who is in the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.

@martinamcbride I know one song of yours, that’s it one. I will never listen to it again, you’ve made your money off of Americans now you don’t care. You should be ashamed.
Her name was Dominique Moody.
She was 6 years old.
She was locked in a dog crate and starved for over a year in Charlotte NC.
She was bound in duct tape.
Wrapped in plastic.
She was bitten by rats in a home with no heat and feces in every room.
She weighed just 27 pounds when she passed away.
Her "caretakers" forced little Dominique to watch them eat, while starving her.
They made her sit in her own urine and feces until she had open wounds.
When police found her, she had multiple broken bones. Burns. Open wounds and scars across most of her body.
She lived like that for OVER A YEAR.
Police were called to the house 50 TIMES before she died.
Nothing happened.
The women who were her "caretakers" were arrested 10 PREVIOUS TIMES.
