When I started my self-syndication business a few years ago, I needed to collect the contact information for every editor in the nation. It was a daunting task made even more difficult with the lack of internet in my home at that time. So, I went to McDonald's nearly every day to use their Wi-Fi.... Continue Reading →
Nazi The Equivalence
At the start of World War II, nearly every Scandinavian country declared neutrality. It only worked out for Sweden. Norway and Denmark were invaded by Germany. Even Iceland didn't escape, and they were invaded by the good guys when England stormed their shores in what should become a comical movie (go read up on it).... Continue Reading →
Haters Storm C’ville
Rational people can disagree and debate whether monuments to the Confederacy should be removed. You may align yourself on the side of keeping the memorials, but do you want to stay at the party when the Klan shows up? Conservatives don't seem to express any discomfort being on the same side as the Ku Klux... Continue Reading →
Hate In Chicago
You should be outraged over four black kids beating up a white kid while yelling "F white people." You should be outraged if they did it without inserting their world viewpoints. But if you make post after post on social media every time a black person does something bad and you ignore Dylan Roof shooting... Continue Reading →
Blood Runs Rouge
I've drawn too many cartoons and written too many columns on the violence sweeping our nation right now. Yesterday I wrote how I was surprised another terrorist attack didn't occur before I could draw a cartoon about Nice, France. Today three policemen, one black, were killed in Baton Rouge, the capital of my home state. Someone... Continue Reading →
Profile Of A Senator
Republicans and conservatives love to shoot down the fact that African-Americans are often profiled by the police. They're oblivious to the fact that every black child has to be given "the talk" on how not to be killed by the police. A Harvard study was recently published saying encounters between police and African-Americans "rarely goes... Continue Reading →
Robocop
Did you ever see Robocop? It's a movie from the 1980's about a cop who becomes part robot. There were sequels. There was a remake. I did see parts of the remake but I never did see the original. I do recall Peter Weller was Robocop, and I don't know how I remember that because... Continue Reading →
Blue Cop, Red Cop, White Cop, Black Cop
I honestly believe the most effective way to end discrimination among our nation's police is to bring more minorities into their forces, especially to represent the population of their communities. Irving, Texas, a suburb of Dallas, is a great example. 70% of the community is non-white but minorities only account for 17% of their police... Continue Reading →
Sheriff Star
I started to draw this Thursday night and then Dallas happened. I thought it might be the wrong time to pick on the police the day after that attack. I still liked the idea and decided to finish it, even if none of my clients publishes the cartoon. What's happening in this nation against the... Continue Reading →
Check Your Privilege
I've heard accusations that some Black Lives Matters protesters are cheering the killing of police in Dallas. If that's true it's revolting. What's equally revolting are people silent, or uncaring when police murder a black citizen. There's this disgusting guy named Joe Walsh. No, not the reformed drug-addicted alcoholic who played guitar for The Eagles.... Continue Reading →
