Missouri Man Charged With Felony After Racist Comment To Black Waitress A racist Missouri restaurant customer is getting exactly what he deserves after making outwardly prejudice comments towards an African-American waitress before physically assaulting her. via Fox 2 Now St. Louis A white northwest Missouri man is charged with felony assault after he allegedly confronted a black waitress as she served him breakfast. Nodaway County Prosecuting Attorney Robert Rice announced Wednesday that he charged 65-year-old Tommy Dean Gaa, of Maryville, with felony assault motivated by discrimination. The Maryville Daily Forum reports Gaa is accused of confronting the waitress on Sunday and grabbing her arm, causing bruising. A probable cause statement says Gaa said “I have a place I would like to take you where I hung your grandpa” and used racial slurs. Gaa was released from the Nodaway County Jail on $4,900 bond. Online records don’t indicate if he has an attorney. Rice says the comments were bad enough but Gaa crossed the line when he grabbed the waitress. This bum sounds like a real jerk. Good to know that his racist foolery won’t go unpunished.

See more of the “gross” photos and her apology for her rant on the flip.
Damon Dash Explains Missing Tooth Damon Dash turned heads at BET Honors last weekend. Not just because his presence was a surprise at the ceremony honoring Kanye West as a visionary after their famed falling out — but because one of his most prominent front teeth was noticeably absent from the black tie affair. Naturally, as the photo made the rounds, everyone wanted to know what happened to his grill. Dame’s explanation? He’s been getting heavy into acting and filmmaking , and the tooth was just a casualty of his craft. Check the video (tooth explanation around 2:30 mark): Sooo…he was so dedicated to his role that he pulled out a perfectly good tooth for it? Hmmm, we would think make-up, prosthetics, etc. could make him look “ugly” for a film… but if you say so Dame! ANYWAY, good of him to reconnect with Kanye for his big night! We can’t wait to see what he said at BET Honors… YouTube
Twitter will burn! Michelle Obama Gives American Sniper High Praise Via USAToday Michelle Obama had high praise for American Sniper on Friday morning. Not from a critical standpoint, per se, but for the film’s complex portrayal of veteran Chris Kyle. The first lady was unveiling a program designed to recognize film and TV content that accurately portrays veterans and military families called 6 Certified, part of a national veteran campaign, Got Your 6, which is a military term meaning, “I’ve got your back.” She spoke following a panel discussion with American Sniper star Bradley Cooper and producers Bruce Cohen, Sarah Schechter, Lori McCreary and Stephanie Drachkovitz. Mrs. O., wearing an uncluttered black dress, called on content creators to “change the conversation about our veterans and military families” by giving “the full story.” She cited American Sniper as an example of a successful film that has done just that. “Look at the latest box office numbers. The No. 1 movie in America right now is a complex emotional depiction of a veteran and his family,” she said.” “I had a chance to see American Sniper this week, on that long flight.” This caused the crowd at the National Geographic Society auditorium to chuckle at her reference to traveling to Saudi Arabia. “I know there have been critics,” said Mrs. Obama of Sniper. “But more often than not, this film touches on many of the emotions and experiences I have heard first-hand from military families over these past few years. This movie reflects those wrenching stories I’ve heard, the complex journeys that our men and women in uniform endure, the complicated world, the decisions they are tasked with every day, the stresses of balancing love of family with love of country, and the challenges of transitioning back home.” She went on to say, “Here’s why a movie like this is important: The vast majority of Americans will have never seen these stories or grasp these issues, without portrayals like this.” Films and TV are often the “best way we have” to share them, she said.

Middle School Students Have A Sex Party Families in Brown Deer, Wisconsin are reeling after four middle schoolers were busted for having a secret “sex party” after school. Four Brown Deer Middle School students could face serious charges. Police say they were involved in a sex party — and they’re accused of recording it on their cell phones. Word of this alleged party over winter break has been spreading quickly — not just on social media. FOX6 News has seen hundreds of comments on our Facebook page. FOX6 News was able to talk with some residents. They used words like this in reacting to what allegedly took place: “appalling,” “sad,” and “disgusting.” “The party annotation really came from the way it was dispatched to us. Because in reality it was just a few kids, four, that got together and had sexual activity,” said Brown Deer Police Chief Michael Kass. Chief Kass says the ages of those involved, coupled with the fact that they recorded it on their cell phones are things being taken into consideration when determining potential criminal charges. “While the appearance is that it was all consensual, we just don’t know that as a fact — because legally they can’t consent,” said Chief Kass. School officials say nothing happened at the middle school, but that’s where they found out about it. They say other students approached them, concerned for the safety of those allegedly involved. Those administrators immediately brought that information to the Brown Deer Police Department. A statement was issued by the Brown Deer School District, saying school officials are “deeply troubled” to hear of this incident and that the district is “actively working with authorities” as the investigation continues. “When you leave kids unsupervised, sometimes odd things happen, so it’s important you not only supervise your children but you also know what they’re doing with their cell phones. You need to know what’s going on,” said Chief Kass. Police say all four of the teens involved were arrested and then released to their parents. Brown Deer police are recommending the students be charged with first and second degree sexual assault of a child. SMH…watch your kids people.

Dear Bossip , So, I met this guy when I was on a short weekend gateway. We both happened to stay in the same hostel and clicked really quickly. He’s from Africa and was travelling around Asia countries, expecting to return home some time four months later. For sake of completion I will just mention that I’m Asian myself and live in Asia too. To cut long stories short, neither of us is denying that we have feelings for each other. We can spend hours talking in the hostel common area til the receptionist thinks we have dated for some time; that’s how good the chemistry was. But, of course, at that time, he was on his tour with two other guy friends, but even before he returns home, he has made some effort to visit me where I live, three times within four months. During that period, we were consistently in touch with each other. We exchanged so much about each other – jobs, careers, past relationships, travel experiences, life goals, etc. I find him very inspiring to me and it’s because I learned so much from the way he lives life that I have decided to quit my job as a lawyer in order to be a happy person. I do think he has made me the best version of myself, if not then at least the happiest version. Whenever we have the chance to be together, it all feels like I found where I belong – it’s homely, it’s comfortable, and I know it’s not just the sex (although yes, that too). Sadly, reality will always be harsh. He’s home been bound some two and half months ago. We’re still keeping in touch – sometimes we talk like friends, sometimes we flirt and sext each other and sometimes we get depressed because we could not share a future together (well, at least not given the current situation). Everything falls apart when I start inquiring as to whether we should make this a relationship, or should we just break the deal. This happened a month ago. We tried no contact, which really broke me within three days; we tried chatting plainly as friends, which eventually he came to admit it’s hard for him (for me too); we tried keeping minimal contact, which made me felt like he’s just purposely ignoring me. But, in the back of our minds, we know that we could not meet in the next two years as he’s going to start his training contract in order to qualify as a lawyer at home, and I know it is hard because I’ve been through the same procedure at home. Due to this, it all became a mess, because he’s made up his mind that he does not want to be in a relationship with someone that he could not see for two years. And, it’s made worse by the fact that he does not know if he wants to continue practicing as a lawyer at home (in order to live up to people’s expectations), or return to Asia for teaching (it’s his passion). I know it’s not fair and I know most guys won’t do a long distance relationship, which is a stretch of two years. As it stands now, we’ve reached the point that we don’t contact each other anymore as it causes too much emotional stir up on both of us. But, I think he deserves a place in my life. I really would like to try again after two years or whenever we have the chance to meet again. It’s just now, I’m not sure why he’s not saying anything about it. I can understand why he doesn’t want a long distance relationship, but at the same time I would very much rather be fighting together for this than to not know what he’s thinking. Do you think it’s worth it for me to keep a special place for him in my heart? I know for a fact that he will shut himself down from any relationship for about a year or so (I know this when we talked about our exes). Every time he takes it for real, so I do have some kind of advantage to roll it back in my hands. Am I just being silly, or truly fighting for something that’s worth it? – From Asia With Love Dear Ms. From Asia With Love , What are you fighting for? You and he were never in a relationship. You and he were not boyfriend and girlfriend, or long term partners. It was a hot fling that lasted a very short period of time. So, please explain to me what you are truly fighting for? (Sips tea) Let’s be clear, you’re in Asia. He is in Africa. That is not even remotely close in proximity. What type of long distance relationship do you really think will happen or occur? Chile, these women get some African d**k and go crazy! I’m sure your short weekend tourist fling with your African lover was amazing, wonderful, and he opened your eyes to some things by sharing his life with you. But, the reality is that he lives in Africa. You are in Asia. He is about to begin a two year program to become a lawyer. He will not have the time, finances, nor the energy to dedicate to you in a long distance relationship. Why fool yourself? Why even think you and he can have any type of intimate relationship for the next two years? It’s not a reality. And, you shouldn’t put your life on hold waiting on him to complete his program. What if he decides to stay in Africa, then what? He can meet another woman during that time, and you can meet another man. Why shut yourself off from the possibility of meeting someone new? Sweetie, it was a weekend filled and packed with a world wind of romance, passionate sex, and blissful lust speaking. He hooked you on that African penis and now you’re talking about you want to spend the rest of your life with him. Honey, you don’t know that much about him. You only know what he told you, and what he shared with you. I’m sure there is much more to his life than what he revealed in a weekend. And, let’s be clear, he’s only visited you three times in four months, and that is while he was in Asia. So, if he came to see you only three times in four months, then what do you think he was doing the other times he was not with you? (Sips tea) If he was really wrapped up in you and really wanted to make it work and he was madly in love with you as you are with him, then don’t you think he would have spent more time with you in those four months? Girl, he only saw you once a month, and one month he didn’t see you at all! D**k is a dangerous drug. And, he got you with that ole’ African d**k. I’m sure he inspired you, and gave you some great wisdom about life, but to up and quit your career as a lawyer is a bit rash. Don’t you find it ironic that, although he was in Asia to teach, but he is back in Africa to become a lawyer. If he was so unhappy and didn’t want to pursue a career as a lawyer, then why go through with the program? Why not stay and teach in Asia, or why not teach in Africa? So, don’t be fooled or too quick to stop your career and pursue your passions, well, not until you have well thought out and devised plan. Why quit your career and you have not fully thought it through, nor have you saved enough money to last you a few months while you pursue your passion? Long story, short: Don’t put your life on hold, or disrupt your life for a man. If he is not willing to disrupt his life or put his life on hold for you, then don’t you bend over backwards, or stop what you’re doing to follow him. Don’t wait on a man if he is not willing to wait on you. And, he’s told you that he is not willing to commit to a long distance relationship, and he is not willing to hold out for two years for you. He’s not making any promises or guarantees that you and he will be together. He is going on with his life, and so should you. And, notice that it’s you who is pursuing him. I bet you are the one doing all the calling, texting, and everything else. He is not chasing after you. Never, ever chase after a man. It was a great time, with great sex, and great conversation. Keep that memory, but soon it will fade. Soon he will be a faded memory of a hot and steamy romance which you had for a short while. Get back into the dating pool and I’m sure you’ll meet another wonderful, smart, inspiring, loving, and caring man who will sweep you off your feet. Just make sure he is local and not from another country or continent. – Terrance Dean Photo source: Shuttershock Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think? Share your opinions and thoughts below!
