The radical trans community continued its assault on women this weekend.
Trans activists say Aretha Franklin’s “(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman” is very offensive to trans women.
Natural Woman
– The 1967 single was released by American soul singer Aretha Franklin
on the Atlantic label. The words were written by Gerry Goffin from an
idea by Atlantic producer Jerry Wexler, and the music was composed by
Carole King.
Standing for Women Founder Kellie-Jay Keen says it’s “really hard” to
ignore the “misogyny” of the trans-rights movement as Aretha Franklin’s
song ‘Natural Woman’ was recently slammed as offensive to trans-women.
“Being a mum, that is also being attacked, we’re now called birthing
persons or pregnant persons,” Ms Keen told Sky News Australia.
“I don’t think many women really know how much we’re hated – I hate
to say it … I don’t have a victim mentality, but it’s really hard to
ignore the misogyny of this particular movement.
“It means a man who says he’s frightened to go in a man’s toilet –
his words are more credible than a woman who says she doesn’t want that
man in her space.”

School principal Kandi Darnell was with him minutes before he collapsed, as reported by KSAT.
“He seemed fine and everything seemed fine,” she said.
“We lost a friend, colleague, and just a good man today,” Darnell wrote.
“Jacob was the kind of person who would do anything to help out
others. He was a kids’ teacher. He worked hard to connect with all of
our kids not just our athletes. Our kids are going to have a tough time,
but our DMS family will be there to help our kids as well as each
other. On a personal level I feel as if I’ve lost a son. I’ve known
Jacob since he was little. He and my son were in the same class. I
taught Jacob. As a principal I counted on Jacob to help with some of our
tougher customers. I would get him to talk to them. He was always
willing to help. He was one of the first ones to volunteer to chaperone
dances, field trips etc… He would do anything for the kids. There will
be a big void in our hearts. Pray for his family, our kids, and our
community. RIP Jacob,” she concluded.
Sanchez’s wife, Rebecca Powe, issued a statement following the passing of his husband.
“My honey was the light of our lives. He kept our family on our toes,
constantly going, and always laughing. We shared a beautiful life
together He loved us with his whole heart and loved his life. He was
dedicated to the community of Devine and the kids were his motivation
every day.”
Devine Intermediate School issued this statement, “Devine
Intermediate School would like to extend our thoughts and prayers to the
Sanchez family. Our hearts are with all of the Devine community.”
According to Sanchez’s obituary,
he landed teaching and coaching at Devine ISD in 2016. He taught sixth
and eighth-grade Science, and coached football, basketball and track,
for the last seven years.
Vaccination Status: Fully Vaccinated
According to his social media account, Jacob Sanchez received his
first dose of Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine on December 2020 and second dose
on January 2021.
EPD says the female victim was life-flighted and was a former co-worker of Mosley’s–her condition is still unknown at this time.
Evansville Central Dispatch has confirmed that emergency
personnel responded to a situation involving an active shooter on
Thursday night.
According to Dispatch, the incident took place at the Walmart in Evansville that is located on South Red Bank Road.
The call came in at approximately 9:59 o’clock in the evening.
The suspect has reportedly been named as Ronald Mosley II, according to the police.
According to the authorities, Mosley previously held a position at the retail establishment.
According to EPD, the female victim who was shot currently works at
Walmart. The woman was flown to a hospital to be treated. Her condition
is currently unknown.
According to Sgt. Anna Gray of the Evansville Police Department,
who spoke with FOX3 about the incident, when officers got at the scene,
they went straight into the building.
Officers arrived at the site fairly quickly and went straight
into the Walmart, according to Sgt. Gray. “We were provided with a
description of the person of interest. After that, the officers started
looking for the suspect.
The Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office was also dispatched to the
scene of the shooting, and both deputies and police officers entered the
building to search for the perpetrator of the shooting.
Vanderburgh County Sheriff Noah Robinson said, “Right away, we
put together a team with the Evansville Police Department and started
looking for the threat.” “You may remember that the Columbine model came
up a few decades ago. This is when you secure a scene and wait for help
to keep a situation under control. We no longer use that as a model. If
there is active gunfire, we go right to the threat and stop it so that
as few people as possible die.”
Police say Mosley opened fire on officers when they went into the building. Several police officers fired back.
Gray says that Mosley would shoot and then run away, showing the police officers the way around the store.
The assailant was taken out by gunfire and killed.
The EPD asserts that the danger has been eliminated completely.
According to Sergeant Gray, at least one person was shot and sent to
the hospital; however, it’s possible that there are additional victims.
According to the officials, anyone who was present at the store
or who was hurt as a result of the incident is required to get in touch
with the police.
The following statement was issued by Walmart executives in response to the shooting that occurred on Thursday:
The entire Walmart family is shocked by the senseless violence
that occurred at our Evansville store, and our hearts are with our
associate at this time. As we learn more, we’ll do everything we can to
support our associates as they cope with this tragedy.
We’re thankful for the local first responders and will
continue working with law enforcement through the course of their
investigation.
"Ma" actress Octavia Spencer claimed that Los Angeles, California struck her as much more racist than her hometown of Montgomery, Alabama.
During
a recent podcast interview, Spencer explained that though she had
anticipated the city in the blue state to be a "free and liberal
thinking place," once she got there, she experienced "more racism" than
she ever had in Alabama.
Spencer, who starred in big Hollywood
pictures "The Help" and "Hidden Figures," made her revealing comments on
the podcast "WTF with Marc Maron."

The topic came about when the actress spoke fondly of her upbringing in Montgomery, Alabama, which seemingly caught Maron off-guard because of stereotypes of Black people living in the deep South.
Spencer
claimed, ""It’s a beautiful place and beautiful people. You know, I
love being from there." Maron asked, "But it’s like, it’s heavy, man.
Right?"
Breaking down the stereotype, the actress stated, "I think
everywhere is heavy. Everywhere has its history. You know what I mean?
It’s — I think everywhere has problems."
Though she did acknowledge, "You can’t deny that Southern history is intense."
Still,
Spencer explained how she grew up after the more racist period of
Alabama’s history, telling Maron, "Well, what’s beautiful for me is,
that stuff preceded me. You know, I was a child of the '70s… You know,
as you grow older and the things that you can remember. That wasn’t a
part of my history. I learned about it. It’s not everything — anything
that I experienced."
Maron asked if racism affected her family in any way, to which she replied, "No."

Spencer
said, "My mother definitely, you know, taught us about the world and
the realities, the harsh realities of the world and history."
"But
growing up in Alabama, I’m going to be honest, I felt more racism when I
first moved here than I ever, ever had in Alabama," she added,
mentioning relocating to Los Angeles.
Maron found the comment
compelling, commenting it made sense because people of different races
have been living together in the South "since the beginning" of the
United States – longer than in California.
Spencer agreed, noting
her initial perceptions of L.A. were broken when she got there. She said
she remembers thinking, "Oh, California is gonna be this free and
liberal thinking place," but ended up feeling judged upon entering a
store.
"It is so funny. It’s right out of ‘Pretty Woman,’"
she said, referencing a scene where high-end store clerks judge Julia
Roberts’ call-girl character for daring to enter their establishment.Spencer
elaborated, saying, "I remember going into a shop and being followed,
like, at first, I didn’t even — I was just like so excited, like just
walking around, and then I realized that I was being followed."
"It
was kind of strange in that way," she added, saying that the incident
was "glaringly obvious," but that she hadn't experienced much
discrimination since.
