I be concubining - Tip O the Hat to LaShawn

LaShawn Barber is a regular read of mine in Blogdom.

A primer. Who is LaShawn? She is Conservative, Christian, a Good Writer, Fairly Famous, from Tennesse and she is Black.

She is also the kind of Voice I love to hear that simply because of her skin color has the ability to speak truth to a culture that is not lost and drifting in America.

Her post today is what I wrote about regarding the need for Freisians to Speak UP.
She did.

Synopsis. This rap star wannabe bozo gets 6 (SIX) different women pregnant at one tme. They are all delivering this fall. When the Judge asks him is he going to marry any of these women he says in this Story:

“No, I be concubining,” he said. A concubine is a woman who cohabitates with a man to whom she is not married.

Prosecutors said Lackey is expectant father of six children with six different women. The women all are expected to deliver between August and October.

What makes this really really sick is:
As Lackey left the courtroom Friday, a group of teenage girls there for another case appeared to know Lackey. “Oh, there’s Ricky Lackey!” one swooned.

Lackey shrugged the attention off with one word and a wave of his hand. “Fans,” he said.


Thank You LaShawn for saying what I am not allowed to say. But, if it's ok, I'm gonna turn that volume knob up a tad for you. I hope others will too.
