August 9, 2023 Ridley's Believe It Or Not

 

Craig Robertson was dumb enough to post on social media that he had heard Biden was coming to town so he was dusting off his m24 sniper rifle to welcome the Buffoon in chief which prompted the FBI to obtain and try to execute an arrest and search warrant which resulted in a shootout and his being killed. Documents in the case of the Newport News 6 year old student at Richneck Elementary who shot Abigail Zwerner revealed that after shooting her and as Amy Kovac, a reading specialist, burst in to restrain him he was bragging “I shot the B**** dead”. Hurricane Dora which passed 500 miles south of Maui, was strong enough to generate 70 m.p.h.+ winds fanning wildfires that have killed 6 people and destroyed large parts of Lahaina. To the joys of the Green Warriors who despise the use of private jets, Wheels Up, a private jet operator is facing severe financial problems and may not survive. Gracie Allen a self-described Black suprematcist first grade teacher at Thompson Elementary School in Texas infamous for posting Anit-White posts and bragging she could not be fired, has in fact been fired. Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, is becoming a lot more loveless as a xylazinean animal tranquilizer known as tranq or the zombie drug, has infiltrated the city’s illegal drug supply mixed with fentanyl, heroin or other drugs that destroys the flesh and renders users unconscious. In the Atlanta area, 20 year old Jessica Ross had her water break and fully dilate to enter the Southern Regional Medical Center in Riverdale to give birth which became difficult as the baby’s shoulders were too big to go through the birth canal but instead of a caesarean delivery the attending doctor pulled on the head so hard the neck was broken causing the headless torso to be delivered by caesarean and the head vaginally. The doctor and hospital are now being sued by the Ms. Ross. While most countries are struggling to reduce inflation China is curse with deflation in the prices of goods and services in a sign its economy is slowing down.

              August 9 Birthdays: “If You Enjoy Sports, Play 2 of Them”: Deion Sanders, born on this day in 1967 in Fort Myers, Florida who played MLB for 9 seasons and in the NFL for 14 and now an inductee to the Football Hall of Fame, being the only professional athlete to play in the World Series and the Super Bowl and is now the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes which have been for many years the doormat of the PAC 12. Hampered by blood clots that have resulted in the loss of 2 toes and his once phenomenal speed, he is seen on the playing field in a wheel chair.
              August 9, Historical Events In Rhyme
              1.     On this day in 2014 6’4’’ 292 pound Michael Brown was shot and killed by Darren Wilson, a Ferguson cop/When Brown was charging toward him and would not stop/Witnesses falsely claimed Brown had his hands up creating the myth of “hands up don’t shoot”/ Which investigations would later clearly refute/ Within a day black citizens outraged started to burn 2 businesses and 7 others loot/Darren Wilson was never charged but the Black Lives Matter received a great shot in the arm/No longer would blacks and whites stay silent if blacks at the hands of police met unlawful deadly or excessive harm.
               2.     On this day in 2012 another glass ceiling was shattered/To be employed the sexual identity no longer mattered/Zebras no longer had to have experience in the game to breaking the rules have to address/Shannon Eastin became the first woman to officiate a NFL game and easily passed the test.
               3.     On this day in 1969 4 members of the Manson Family ready for Helter Skelter to run wild/Drove to the Benedict Canyon Home  of Sharon Tate to kill her and her 8 ½ month unborn child/ Along with Abigail Folger and 3 more/A beta test site for the coming waver of Helter Skelter society could not ignore/Fortunately for those living in Southern California the terror and fear of Helter Skelter would soon end/After the next night brutal stabbing and disfiguring the Biancas to their death bed would send.
               4.      On this day in 1945 3 days after the bombing in Hiroshima failed to a surrender produce/A second atomic bomb named “Fat Man” was on Nagasaki let loose/35,000 civilians, Japanese and Korean war workers and soldiers were killed outright/Defenseless to stop another bombing the Emperor lost his will to continue a losing fight/ Japan would surrender in a few days/Saving the Allies from the loss of nearly a million soldiers due to invasion and conquering the Japanese would slay.
               5.      On this day in 1936 Jesse Owens running in the 4X4 100 meter relay race his 4th Gold Medal Won/To Hitler and his dream of Aryan superiority stun/The 1936 Olympics held in Berlin/Was supposed to prove Aryan dominance to most of the medals win/The myth arose that Hitler snubbed Owens  his win he did not approve/ By looking at the facts was easily disproved/After the first day he congratulated all those Germans who Gold Medals did win/Along with a few Gold Medal winners who were Finns/But not the black American high jumper which caused a rebuke that he could congratulate all or none/Going forward he ceased congratulating any athlete German or not who won/Sadly the White House was still in the Deep South’s Democrats’ grip/Only white 1936 Olympians were invited to make the congratulatory White House trip.
               Famous Quote by Jesse Owens on Winning His Olympic Gold Medals: “Although I wasn't invited to shake hands with Hitler, I wasn't invited to the White House to shake hands with the President either.”
