Alejandro Razo, a 62-year-old from Reseda, California has just been sentenced to two years in jail for having sex with an 82-year-old woman. The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office wasn’t offended by the age difference so much as they were by the difference in Razo being alive and the 82-year-old woman not being alive. Razo is also a nurse, and was preparing his date for the hospital mortuary when another nurse barged in on Razo while his pants were down. Razo was arrested for violating safety regulations and failing to resuscitate the woman with his penis.
This must be what they mean by “American Exceptionalism.” An 11-year-old girl in New Mexico was given a loaded gun by her dad so she could protect herself. From whom? Her father? Watch:
Cassidy and his wife are both doctors, and their new grandchild is due this summer. Congressman Cassidy is a Republican candidate for Senate in Louisiana.
Next time he should say, “I abstain” on any votes before Congress regarding abstinence.
A thorough collection of Anthony Cumia’s tweets leading to his firing.
UPDATE: This is a little confusing. Anthony Cumia claims he’s being censored for his tweets, but then he took his tweets down. If he doesn’t want SiriusXm to censor him, maybe he shouldn’t be censoring himself.
Luckily below we still have the tweets even though Anthony Cumia has deleted six months worth of tweets from his account, including the ones that got him fired.
Sirius has just fired shock jock Anthony Cumia for a string of tweets considered by management to be racist. We are providing you with a thorough collection of Anthony Cumia’s tweets he posted this week leading to his firing. That’s because there has been much discussion in the blogosphere all morning as to whether Sirius made the right decision removing him from “Opie And Anthony.”
The collection of Cumia’s tweets was assembled by Journalist Craig Mansfield. You decide. Are these racist? Are these violent? Are these sexist? Does a corporation have the right to distance itself from these tweets by firing the person responsible for them?
It’s all below, you make the call.
The government can’t censor speech, but can a corporation censor it’s own employees? If you were African American or a woman would you find these tweets dangerous? Mr. Cumia is also a proud member of the NRA. Do these views reflect those of the NRA’s? And should the NRA reserve the right to suspend his membership if he crosses a line into hate speech? What is hate speech? And is it hate speech if you’re making a living off of it?
Finally Anthony Cumia says the woman hitting him was lucky he didn’t shoot her because he was carrying a gun that evening. I asked Mr. Cumia if he had a permit to carry a concealed weapon, but he hasn’t responded. You still need a permit in New York City.
Happy 4th of July. We’re a fascinating nation. And it’s a miracle we have all stayed together as a family.
Apparently, it is fine for comedians to do whatever they want. But if a woman objects to having her picture taken at random on a public street, she is a crazed feminist making unreasonable demands and using sexual harassment as a cover for all sorts of unreasonable behavior. And if black men step up when a black woman is the target of racial and sexual slurs, now that is just too transgressive.
On Tuesday David Diaz, an LA based music producer, captured these images of a CHP officer wrestling a woman to the ground along the side of the 10 Freeway and then punching her about 15 times. No word yet as to whether the officer will be disciplined and or fired.
Listen to today’s program:
First Toronto Mayor Rob Ford knocked America down to second place in the category of World’s Sleaziest Politicians. Now comes Ryutaro Nonomura who is a Japanese assemblyman accused of using public funds last year for 106 day trips to a hot springs spa. This week he held a press conference to address these allegations. As evidenced by this video Ryutaro needs to find another form of relaxation because the hot springs are not doing the trick. As America drops to third place our politicians need to pick up their game.
Luckily the Associated Press could translate:
“To change Japan and society,” he said in a choked voice, stopping mid-sentence, sometimes sobbing so loud he was shouting. “I’m putting my life on the line.”
“What I love about ‘The David Feldman Show’ is I’m listening to a middle-aged guy getting radicalized, but he still can’t stop telling dick jokes with his comic friends from the ’80s.” – Michael Brooks, The Michael Brooks Show
“I love how David gives both sides of a story: profound and anti-found.” – Congressman Alan Grayson
“A podcast for folks who believe that strong political convictions and a sense of humor do not have to be mutually exclusive.” – Nathan Rabin, The AV Club
