Far too often, Mo’Kelly gets emails asking for comment on stories both large and small. Without a doubt it’s too time consuming to flesh out editorials on all of the top news issues of the day. But Mo’Kelly can offer quick thoughts…a rundown on the top stories and items. Let Mo’Kelly know if this shorthand works for you. Don’t worry, the full responses to some issues will always be here, but this will allow more topics to be addressed here in The Mo’Kelly Report on a daily basis. And it goes a little something like this.
The Airstrikes in Libya
Mo’Kelly feels like we’re reliving the Bush presidency. Since when did we as a nation sign up to become the world police? There is such a thing as a sovereign nation. Just when you thought that Afghanistan and Iraq were enough, the U.S. is now involved in another military conflict…unnecessarily. This is not the change for which Mo’Kelly voted.

Rape of 11-year old by some 18 boys/men
It does not and will not EVER matter what the victim was wearing, her social habits or even the race of the accused. We as a community must strive to be righteous not merely on the side of race. Where race does matter in our societal indifference. Just imagine if the victim were White…
Now imagine if the accusers were White…
Either way, the reporting of the events by the press varies greatly.
We owe to the victim and the accusers to do what’s right, not what is racially convenient.

Fox Commentator Juan Williams Says “I get nervous walking past young Black men.”
Of course he gets nervous…
All sarcasm aside, there are two discussions to be had on this; the reality and the fantasy. The reality is that Black on Black crime is a tangible problem in our community and must be addressed. The reality also is that Juan Williams is probably never in the same neighborhood as young African-American men and has nothing in common.
Of course he’s nervous around young Black men.
The fantasy is that Juan Williams speaks for, is knowledgeable about or is informed about who young Black men are. The fantasy is that the majority of us look like, act like or embrace thug and criminal life.

Mo I read the link about the guys who raped the 11 year old girl. For me, there is no excuse for rape. It doesn’t matter what a woman had on, where they were, or if they seemed easy. This is not exceptable.
As a mother of 2 sons, I have always told them, if they were ever involved in something like this or any other crime, I would turn them in myself. There is no reason that our young men have to be criminals. To make excuses for bad behavior, especially this type of crime, doesn’t help them, it only enables them.
As an African-American woman, I do know that there are a number of situations when our young black men get a bad rap. However, this is not one of them. And anyone who would stand up to try to defend them are just as sick as they are.
On a side note, Mo’, I just want to let you know how proud I am of you and your success. It’s good to know a good brother, who is always trying to do the right thing. Keep up the good work and continue to keep us informed.
Love ya’.
Forgot to comment about Libya and Juan Williams.
I have mixed feelings about Libya. For Ghadaffi to attack his own people was not right. However, I don’t know if it was the right thing for the US to get involved. There are other Countries in Africa that need the US assistance and haven’t got it. I think they could of sent a small group in there to remove him, instead of bombing. Hopefully, this is only a temporary situation.
About Juan Williams, he sold out a long time ago.
