Hi Hater: Right Wing Politician Calls Robin Roberts’ Coming Out The Closet “A Sad Satanic Tragedy”

Hi gay haters!

Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans For Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH), has described Robin Roberts’ coming out as a “tragedy.”

Peter LaBarbera Calls Robin Roberts’ Coming Out The Closet A Tragedy

Via Chicago Go Pride reports:

On Sunday, the 53-year-old Roberts, a co-host of ABC’s Good Morning America, publicly acknowledged for the first time that she is in a relationship with girlfriend Amber Laign.

“I am grateful for my entire family, my long time girlfriend, Amber, and friends as we prepare to celebrate a glorious new year together,” Roberts wrote in a Facebook post.

First Lady Michelle Obama was among those who congratulated Roberts.

(Related: Ellen DeGeneres, Michelle Obama, Thomas Roberts congratulate Robin Roberts on coming out.)

“I think every coming out is a tragedy,” LaBarbera said during an interview with Vic Eliason of VCY America. “Every time a person comes out openly as a homosexual, it’s an extra step of defiance, of advocacy. And how sad that our First Lady and the White House in general and President Obama as well all celebrate homosexuality.”

LaBarbera called the marriage equality movement “evil,” saying that “the homosexual so-called marriage movement has become a huge platform to corrupt children.”

Later in the program, LaBarbera described the transgender community as Satanic.

“Transgender advocacy are people who believe that their biological sex, male or female, doesn’t match what they feel. I’ll tell you what Vic, Satan really works through feelings, doesn’t he?” LaBarbera said.

“You know, Peter, years and years ago the old fashioned circus used to have a display in some kind of a cage or a display factor that had a ‘bearded lady’ as a freak,” Eliason said. “Today we don’t even have to worry about that, it will be happening in your department stores, it will be happening in the public school, the issue of cross-dresses and transvestites and all of this type of thing certainly is what you’re talking about.”

Drake was just partying with all the ladies on South Beach this past weekend. Your favorite Canadian rapper co-hosted Eye Candy Saturdays at Club Dream on South Beach with west coast songbird Jhené Aiko, just a few days after being spotted with his new rumored boo-thang Zoe Kravitz at Diddy’s Miami NYE bash. No sign of Drake’s latest love at this party, though.

SNL has finally added some color to the cast…

Sasheer Zamata Joins SNL As New Cast Member!

Via The Hollywood Gossip reports:

Saturday Night Live will soon have a new Oprah Winfrey. And Michelle Obama. And Condoleezza Rice.

The iconic NBC sketch comedy series has responded to its lack-of-diversity criticism by hiring Sasheer Zamata. The comedian will debut on the January 18 episode of the program, which will be hosted by Drake.

Zamata trained at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in New York and will become SNL’s first African-American female since Maya Rudolph left five years ago.

After hiring six new cast members prior to this season, none of whom were black, Lorne Michaels held auditions across the country last month for someone to fill this role.

And Zamata – a graduate of the University of Virginia and someone who has appeared on Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell on FX, and Inside Amy Schumer – beat out stiff competition to land the part.

Lawsuits: Family Plans To Sue Dentist After 3-Year-Old Dies Following Root Canal Procedure

ANOTHER one??? This is ridiculous!

Family Suing Dentists After 3-Year-Old Dies Following Root Canal

Yet another family has lost a child after they went in for a routine procedure and ended up going into cardiac arrest.

via Fox News

A Hawaii family has said it will file a wrongful death lawsuit against a Honolulu dentist after a 3-year-old girl went into cardiac arrest, lapsed into a coma and died following a root canal appointment.

According to court documents, Ashley Boyle took her 3-year-old daughter, Finley, to Dr. Lilly Geyer to get four root canals done. The lawsuit claims a technician gave Finley five different drugs, including Demarol and other sedatives. When Finley began to go into cardiac arrest, the lawsuit claims that the girl was not given CPR for 26 minutes, leading to extensive brain damage.

Finley died on Friday evening at a hospice center, where she had been for almost a week. Family attorney Rick Fried called the girl’s death “tragic” in an interview with KHON-TV.

“I think the parents felt that Finley wouldn’t want to live. I don’t think anyone of us would. She didn’t know she was alive basically,” Fried said.

Fried alleged that Geyer was not a certified pediatric dentist and had to find another doctor to perform CPR when she realized that something was wrong.

This is so sad. No amount of money can even begin to dull the pain this family must be feeling but, hopefully justice is served nonetheless.

Mo Money Mo Problems: $27 Million Dollar Powerball Winner Passes Away Dead Broke In Hospice

So sad…

$27 Million Dollar Powerball Winner Passes Away Dead Broke

David Lee Edwards, the ex-felon from Kentucky who won the $27 million Powerball in 2001, has died broke, and in hospice.

Via Broward Palm Beach reports:

As reported by New Times in 2007, Edwards had managed to blow his entire fortune within just five years. He and his wife Shawna went from living in a lavish Florida mansion decorated with medieval armor, to a Kentucky storage unit container filled with human feces.

See also: Powerfall: For David Lee Edwards, winning the lottery was a wild rocket ride

And now, just 12 years after striking it rich, Edwards has died penniless, and alone, at age 58.

Edwards was a convicted felon who had spent a third of his life behind bars when he walked into a Kentucky convenient store and bought $7 worth of lottery tickets.

When he won, he opted for the one-time payout, rather than the annual payments.

And within a year of being an instant millionaire, Edwards went on a spending spree. He threw down $12 million in that first year alone, buying himself and Shawna a 6,000-square-foot mansion in Palm Beach with a private tennis court for $1.6 million, dozens of expensive cars, and a LearJet with a personal pilot worth $600,000.

His Palm Beach neighbors complained that Edwards had so many cars in his driveway, that it looked like a car dealership.

He also spent on three losing racehorses, a limo business, and a fiber optics installation company. He also spent lavishly on medieval armor and swords to decorate his mansion — most of it cheap knock offs of originals.

But Edwards also had a drug problem. He and Shawna contracted hepatitis from sharing tainted needles, while she had an Oxycontin addiction. The two had multiple run-ins with authorities.

Within five years, he was broke. And once the money dried up, Shawna left him and remarried.

Edwards tried to do right by his winnings. Shortly after falling into his fortune, he had vowed to spend it right, to make it last for Shawna and his daughter.

He even hired a financial adviser, James Gibbs. Gibbs invested some of the winnings in stocks and bonds. But Edwards sold them all off.

“If he followed my advice,” Gibbs told New Times in 2007, “he’d be pulling in about $85,000 a month for the rest of his life.”

On Tuesday, Edwards’ daughter, Tiffani Lee Edwards, said that her father had died penniless and alone. And that he had left her nothing, not even a life insurance policy.

“There is NO MONEY anywhere!!!!” she wrote on Facebook.

A very sad story. The poor guy had a very troubled life before winning the Lottery but it seemed the money only slowed and lengthened the tragic inevitable. Do you feel bad for the man?

Convicted Steubenville Black Teen Rapist Ma’lik Richmond Released After Only Serving 9-Months In Jail

Free at last?

Ma’lik Richmond Released After Only Serving 9-Months In Jail

Via RadarOnline reports:

Ma’lik Richmond, one of the two Steubenville High School jocks convicted in the rape of a 16-year-old girl at an Aug. 2012 party, is a free man.

Richmond’s lawyer Walter Madison said his client, 16-years-old at the time of the crime, saw the error of his ways during the nine months he spent in a juvenile facility.

“While away, Ma’Lik has reflected, learned, matured, and grown in many ways,” Madison said in a statement. “He is a better, stronger person and looks forward to school, life, and spending time with family.”

Bob Fitzsimmons, a lawyer for the victim, criticized Richmond for not alluding to the victim in his statement upon release.

“One would expect to see the defendant publicly apologize for all the pain he caused rather than make statements about himself — rape is about victims, not defendants,” the attorney said. “Although everyone hopes convicted criminals are rehabilitated, it is disheartening that this convicted rapist’s press release does not make a single reference to the victim and her family – whom he and his co-defendant scarred for life.”

The other teen convicted last March in the incident, Trent Mays, received a longer sentence due to a conviction he received for taking a naked pic of the underage victim.

It’s appalling and sad someone gets 9 months for RAPE while others get years for traffic violations and lesser crimes.

WTF?! 11-Year-Old Texas Girl Stabs Her Mother 9 Times In Her Sleep For Threatening To Give Her To An Orphanage!

Texas Girl Stabs Mother 9 Times

Via DailyMail

An 11-year-old Texas girl was arrested over the weekend for stabbing her own mother nine times in the head, neck and shoulder as the woman slept.

While the unnamed minor is currently in a juvenile center, 41-year-old Toshia Edmonson, a single mother of two, is in a serious but stable condition in a Dallas hospital.

The girl told police she that she attacked her mother as she was ‘so, so angry and frustrated with her.’ Officers say she was upset that she had to be home at 11.45pm on Friday.

According to a police report, the girl said that Edmonson pushed her into a sofa and told her that she was going to ‘give her away.’

The girl then waited for her mother to go to sleep, got a knife from the kitchen, went to her bedroom and stabbed her nine times, as reported by CBS 11.

The report stated that Edmonson’s other child, a younger boy, told police that his mother woke up screaming and shouting her daughter’s name.

Edmonson was eventually able to get the knife out of the 11-year-old’s hand and fall on top of her to stop the attack, according to reports…

…The girl has been charged with family violence aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

If this little girl didn’t want to end up living with a bunch of strangers then she has clearly gone about preventing that the wrong way.

Honey Boo Boo Family Involved In Car Crash

Via TMZ reports:

Honey Boo Boo and her family were in a bad car crash Monday night … TMZ has learned.

Honey Boo Boo, Mama June, Pumpkin and Jessica were all passengers in the car driven by Sugar Bear.

Sources tell us … they were at a red light, waiting to turn left. The light turned green and Sugar Bear began the turn. A guy driving a truck was allegedly speeding in the opposite direction with his lights off and crashed into them.

Members of the family were taken to a local hospital … an ambulance showed up, but Mama June tells TMZ … the EMTs were going to take them to a hospital they didn’t like so they went to another hospital in an SUV driven by their bodyguard.

Pumpkin says Sugar Bear has a contusion on his back, Mama June has a back and neck sprain, Honey Boo Boo hit her head against a passenger window and has a headache, and Pumpkin herself has severe chest bruises and is having panic attacks.

And June tells TMZ … “We’ve only had that suburban for 6 months and it’s not even paid off yet.”

Probably a hunger headache. We doubt lil honey boo boo has ever gone an hour without food.

$6 Million Worth Of Drugs Found In Berlin Supermarket

Grocery store employees in Berlin got an unexpected surprise when they opened up containers that were supposed to be filled with bananas only to find them filled with drugs instead.

via CNews

Boxes filled with bananas and cocaine were delivered to five Berlin supermarkets in what police on Tuesday called a “logistical error” by drug smugglers.

Supermarket staff discovered the containers with a total of 140 kg of cocaine on Monday shortly before the fruit went on sale to the public, police and customs investigators said.

It was the largest discovery of cocaine in Germany’s capital in about 15 years and has an estimated black market value of 6 million euros, according to police.

“We were of course surprised,” senior police officer Olaf Schremm, who heads the local drug investigation department, told reporters. “I don’t know where the mistake was in the perpetrators’ delivery chain.”

The banana cartons, part of a consignment of 1,134 boxes, were brought by ship from Colombia to Hamburg and delivered to a fruit wholesaler in Berlin. Cocaine was found in seven of them, Schremm said.

The boxes were eventually delivered to five supermarkets in the Berlin area, but investigators said the intended destination of the cocaine was unclear.

Love & Hip Hop: Tara Tells Peter’s Sidewife Amina There’s No Way In Hell She’ll Play Stepmom To Her Kids

Tara Wallace Tells Amina She Can’t Be Stepmother To Her Kids

Amina Buddafly has made it clear that she wants all the privileges that should come with being Peter Gunz’s wife, including having a relationship with his children, but Tara Wallace hasn’t cosigned on that idea.

Via S2S Magazine reports:

“I tell Peter all the time: just because you want someone in your life, you’re not going to force them in mine,” Tara told 4umf.com. “You chose her; I didn’t choose her.”

Tara, mother of two of Peter’s children, said if Peter wanted Amina to play the step-mom role, he went about it all the wrong way.

“If you wanted to collectively choose, then you should have sat down and said, ‘Hey, I’m moving on; we need to break up,’ and then say, ‘You know what, I’m thinking about dating…’ That’s the right way you would do that if you really want a woman to respect that person,” Tara said.

Instead, Peter was sneaking around with Amina, who he married, while playing the man of the house with Tara.

“Before the show, we were functioning as a family. We definitely had our issues,” Tara said. “I kinda thought he was going through something, and that I needed to back off sometimes, or maybe I was being too hard on him. So, we weren’t in the best of places, but I had no idea the severity of where we were.”

Once Tara realized that Peter was “cheating” with his wife, the two called things off; although, it ended gradually.

Now Amina is rumored to be pregnant with Peter’s baby and if she does become a mother soon, Tara thinks it will clarify things for her.

“The one thing you don’t do is mess around with a woman’s children, and she doesn’t understand that because she doesn’t have children,” said Tara. “One day perhaps she will, and when she does, then she can say, ‘Oh, now I get it.’”

Peter has seemingly moved on from his broken relationship with Tara and committed to Amina. So, has Tara moved on to the next man?

“I’m not dating, but I’m looking forward to it,” said Tara who isn’t in a rush to start anything new. “I do want to detox from this and I do want to take the appropriate time it takes to heal and sometimes, it takes longer than others.”

Though her last relationship ended with a lot of drama, Tara isn’t shying away from love and she’s optimistic about her romantic future.

“I’m excited about the person that I’m going to meet and be with because I’m in a different place. I know what I want. There’s no more questioning and guessing,” said Tara.

Do you think Tara should give Amina a chance with her kids with dirty dog Peter Gunz??

Karrueche Seen With Chris Brown At Court In D.C.

According to TMZ reports:

Chris Brown just REJECTED a plea deal in his Washington D.C. assault case.

Brown was in court facing an assault charge in connection with his run-in with a guy outside his D.C. hotel in October.

The prosecutor revealed in court they had offered Brown a deal — reducing the charge to simple assault (he currently faces misdemeanor assault which carries a more severe penalty), but Brown’s lawyer, Mark Geragos — who was also in court — rejected it … and we think we know why.

Law enforcement sources tell us … they had combed the area looking for surveillance video capturing the run-in. For a long, long time they said they had nothing. Now they seem to be singing a different tune, but haven’t turned the video over to Geragos.

Geragos — who believes his client did nothing wrong — is eager to see the video before cutting any kind of deal.

Press play on the video below to see Karrueche and her crew walking into court with Chris.

It’s nice that K is there to pick up the pieces that Robyn would rather walk around…
