The Laura Ingraham “Racist” Angle? On CNN Tonight Don Lemon on Wednesday, August 9th, spent a whole segment of his weeknights show trashing Fox News Network’s Laura Ingraham, calling her a total racist for saying America ain’t what it used to be in the past thanks to today’s demographics. She was just making a point about how America has changed since my child- hood. That’s not racist, it is just pointing out actual facts. Doesn’t Lemon have any real news to report and dissect on his low-rated cable show? Opioid’s Deadly Sleep Overdosing on Oxycodone is easy because the drug essentially puts your brain to sleep. The brain stops sending messages to your lungs to breathe and you die. The pills can be crushed up and snorted or melted and injected for a quick and deadly high. I can remember back when I was still a police sergeant for the Department of Mental Health P.D. watching folks high on Oxycodone. When they bent over to tie a shoe, they went out like a light and started snoring away. It is sad watching people get hooked on drugs after an injury.

    PELTZ HOPES JULY 30 ENNIS- ROSADO MATCH WILL PAVE THE WAY FOR A RETURN TO THE GLORY DAYS OF PHILADELPHIA BOXING–WATCH FIGHT LIVE ON GOFIGHTLIVE.TV Click for full event info Philadelphia, PA–When Derek “Pooh” Ennis defends his USBA junior middleweight title against fellow-Philadelphian ‘King’ Gabriel Rosado on Friday evening, July 30, at the Arena in South Philadelphia, it will bring back memories of some of the local showdowns that once made Philadelphia one of the boxing capitals of the United States. The list of outstanding fights reads like a page out of Who’s Who in Philadelphia boxing history: Al Ettore vs. Gus Dorazio, Bob Montgomery vs. Wesley Mouzon, Charley Scott vs. Sugar Hart, George Benton vs. Joey Giardello, Gypsy Joe Harris vs. Kitten Hayward, Bennie Briscoe vs. Cyclone Hart…. You could go on and on. “The formula for success in Philadelphia always has been to match two local fighters against each other,” says Nigel Collins, editor of The Ring magazine. “There is nothing like it anywhere else.” Hall-of-Fame promoter J Russell Peltz, who is staging the Ennis-Rosado fight, agrees. “In 1961, when I was 14 years old, my dad took me to the old Arena at 46th & Market Street to see Harold Johnson defend his light-heavyweight title against Von Clay,” Peltz said. “Johnson was from Manayunk and Von Clay was from West Philadelphia. It was an unusually hot night in late April and the Arena was not air-conditioned and you couldn’t move in there it was so packed. It was sweltering.

The three-day celebration News Briefs culminated in a Grand Procession in which the by Sal Giarratani image of the Madonna was carried through the streets, accompanied by society members and marching bands. Thousands Hit Streets Protesting (Photos by Matt Conti Vaccine Passports/Lockdowns MattConti.com) Citizens have taken to the streets in several coun- tries, among them France, Italy, the UK and even Australia to protest vaccine passports and extended lockdowns on the weekend of July 25th. These anti- government protests were strongly denounced by national leaders and police officials. On July 24th, some 160,000 attended public protests in France against president Emmanuel Macron’s vaccine passport requirement, in which those who choose not to accept a COVID vaccine would be excluded from nearly all aspects of public life such as entering restaurants, bars, theatres, public transit, etc. The mandate could also see business owners go to jail for not enforcing the new rules. On July 25th, Macron criticized protesters saying, “This is not free- dom, it is called irresponsibility, egoism,” according to a Google translation of a French report. London also saw massive protests over the same weekend as Boris Johnson announced a similar vaccine passport in the nation. Coverage of the protests showed people holding signs with slogans “Show your papers, comrades,” a reminder to many of the old Soviet Union’s “internal passports.” Democrats Hide Party’s Racist Roots Democrat leaders claim “the GOP wants to white- wash American history” by barring critical race theory from schools, but they refuse to acknowledge their party “did more than any other institution in American life to preserve” slavery and “enforce Jim Crow,” observes RealClearInvestigations’ Mark Hemmingway.

Now Frazier and Yank Durham, his trainer-manager are trying desperately to get a return fight with George Foreman, who stopped Joe in two rounds at Kingston, Jamaica, on January 22. A Foreman-Frazier fight is one of the very few major attractions open for competition among the leading pro­ moters, all of whom are based in the United States. Efforts are being made in England to pull Joe Bugmer and Danny McAlinden into the Big Fight ranks but the impression exists in well informed circles that neither qualifies. Putting together the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle, which were scattered to the winds by the Foreman victory over Frazier and the Ken Norton defeat of Ali, is a task which has eligible promoters stymied. Heavyweight champion George Foreman gets warm welcome from students at E. 0.

    PRESENTS CANCELED!By Don Stradley t’s about time to comment on the cancelation of the Gennady Golvkin - Saul Alvarez rematch, a bout that fell through when Alvarez, having failed two tests for the banned substance clenbuterol, decided to make different plans for Cinco De Mayo. Regrettably for Alvarez, he can pass hair follicle tests until he looks like Bennie Briscoe, but the company line that his initial results came from eat- I ing tainted Mexican beef will probably be questioned for the rest of his career. (left to right) Gerry Cooney’s frequent cancelations created a wall of cynism between him and the press. Vinnie Curto preferred the company of celebri- ties like Don Johnson over fighting Marvelous Marvin Hagler., he suspiciously walked away from his 1977 bout with Hagler. Thomas Heans vs. Marvelous Marvin Hagler was supposed to take place in 1982, until Hearns canceled it with a “sprained his pinky.” A suspicious cancelation has a way of altering our perception of a fighter. It’s not on par with quitting in a fight, but it carries its own unique stench that can take years to air out. Generally, it’s a poor public relations move. eavyweight contender Gerry Cooney turned cident didn’t hurt Hearns’ career, but he spent a few years cancelations into an annual event.
