It’s a Sad Day For the Simpson’s and their FansT

Sam Simon and his family

Okay, I must confess to being a fan of The Simpsons...

Los Angeles, CA—One of the fathers of the Simpson family has left us too soon at age 59. Award winning writer Sam Simon died here from colon cancer.

Simon was a writer and being a writer is a lonely occupation. A writer’s only companion is his computer while he struggles to put significant words on paper.

Sam Simon was an amazing and talented man. He was also legendary philanthropist that enjoyed sharing his substantial wealth.

Simon was a true friend of animals, funding veterinary care for critters in need. Simon also funded a vegetarian food bank for the needy. He constantly donated money to a long line of very deserving causes through his Sam Simon Foundation.

After being diagnosed with cancer in 2012, Simon started buying zoos and circuses just to free their animals.

Simon went public with his cancer fight and battled it as nobly as anyone ever could. I always wonder what additional works we lose when prolific creators like Simon leave us so early.

Simon’s clever writing brought him fortune and fame. He’s a co-creator of The Simpsons and wrote for so many other projects on the small or large screen. Simon left his pen scratches on shows like, Taxi, The Tracy Ullman Show, Anger Management and many others.

We must always remember that the talented actors we seem to enjoy so much exist only because of the words people like Sam Simon put on paper.

Every great film or TV show begins with a book or script written by storytellers. For Sam Simon and his fans, sadly, there are no more stories.

Chicago Cops Slammed with Sudden Ban on the Sig/Sauer P320—And the Officers Will Pay thePrice

In a move that’s rocking the rank and file, the Chicago Police Department has abruptly banned the use of the once-trusted Sig/Sauer P320 pistol as an authorized duty weapon. The order came down swiftly, leaving thousands of officers scrambling. The official reason? Alarming reports that the weapon can fire without the trigger being pulled. For years now the gun-maker has brushed off horror stories about negligent discharges, usually blaming human error. After all, it’s easier to blame the gun than admit to a deadly mistake. Just think back to Alec Baldwin’s tragic shooting on a New Mexico movie set—he insisted he never pulled the trigger, yet a woman lost her life. But experts were quick to point out that the revolver in question simply doesn’t fire on its own. This, however, isn’t Hollywood. The Sig Sauer P320 has a documented pattern of discharges—many occurring while holstered. Lawsuits are piling up, and the manufacturer continues to deny fault, but the incidents are too numerou...

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive. Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning. That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed. It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide. Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community. Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
