Ice Cream Men and Other Perverts

Ice Cream Men and Other Perverts

You can thank IOwntheWorld.com for publicizing this local story out of Memphis.

It relates to that iconic summer noise and treat, those ice cream trucks that meander through America’s streets and byways during the warm months with their mind-numbing, repetitive cacophonies blaring from their speakers luring kids with their seductive music like the rat catcher, the Pied Piper of Hamelin.

In the Memphis instance, the pied piper was a guy named Onuoha Agba who operated an ice cream truck in Shelby County and who may have sold some banana nut crunchy cones or chocolate peanut surprise cups but whose business plan was far less wholesome. Agba, it is alleged, would also engage in barter, offering ice cream to little girls in exchange for their flashing him, lifting up their shirts for his perverted entertainment.

Some months ago, WSHN television had confronted Agba and accused him of employing “sex offenders and murderers” to peddle his wares. See the video of that confrontation here–and be mindful that Mr. Agba was not pleased with being confronted and the video includes some very unsavory language: http://tiny.cc/iyrsb

That report led to a new Tennessee law barring sex offenders from selling ice cream from trucks although the statute doesn’t require background checks, a measure which bona fide drivers support.

Agba’s employment practices became more transparent recently when he was arrested practicing his pedo-scam, as described in the above WSHN video. . .

More Smoke and Mirrors on the Border

More Smoke and Mirrors on the Border

California’s Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced on Friday that he would be sending the California National Guard to the Mexican border, thereby fulfilling his pledge to President Obama.

Hip, hip, hooray!

Well, the announcement is not quite hooray-able since the role of the 224 troops will be only supportive and the forces, while armed, “will not be deployed in a direct law enforcement role.”

In other words and following the president’s lead in May, the California Guard will constitute figurative teats on a bull, not protecting the state’s Mexican border, not apprehending illegals, not inhibiting the influx of illegal drugs, not guarding California, not defending the southern California populace from marauding invaders, murderers, thieves, and rapists.

Why the National Guardsmen even have weapons and ammunition is a bewilderment.

Schwarzenegger is just fulfilling a pledge to Obama, which is not to be confused with fulfilling his oath of office to support and defend Californians. ”The governor has largely refused to embrace aggressive measures cracking down on illegal immigrants, such as the new Arizona law that gives local law enforcement the ability to check immigration status if they reasonably believe the person may have crossed the border without documents:” http://tiny.cc/o5ogj

In other words, illegally.

Arnold, himself an immigrant, has a certain empathy for immigrants legal or not, especially those from Mexico, . . .
