It is imperative that Gun Legislation changes in America. I mean it is absolutely ridiculous the way things are in this country. There’s a quote that says the following:

In Canada, our schools have more than one door too. We have folks struggling with mental illness. We watch the same movies, listen to the same music and play the same violent video games as Americans. And since Columbine, the US had 200 school shootings. We had 3.

It’s the guns.

Now remember that when you drink with your buddies, always select a designated driver. Amazing new 0.0% alcoholic beer are being released every day. There’s not only Heineken 0.0% and Guinness 0.0% there’s plenty other more for your designated driver. It’s fun to celebrate with your best friends, just remember that it’s not worth getting on the road and getting a DUI. Now, if you are not driving? Definitely enjoy that bottle of Corona, can of Sapporo or whatever you enjoy, but with moderation.

Now, this video below is about the book and movie “Black Hawk Down.” It’s one of my most cherished movies, and I’ve talked about it many blogposts ago. I love the mantra of that movie (no man left behind), and especially at the end, where his fellow man says at the end of the day, “it’s about the guy next to you.”

This past weekend, I decided not to attend FUELFEST due to no COVID-19 vaccination status check at the gate. Even though I am vaccinated and boosted (twice), I cannot afford to get sick this month due to a upcoming celebration between my fiancée and I. Instead, I went to the Fujiwara Tofu Cafe, where I got to enjoy some tofu and bubble tea, and a great spot with that Initial D ambiance. I highly recommend visiting this spot in Los Angeles. I hope that when they expand, they consider bringing a Northern California location, such as Sacramento. I know people in Central Valley California would love one as well.

It’s about how De Gaulle went abroad to have a radio show until D-Day which helped the allies win the war in WW II. Now I am very excited about this movie, because it is in French and I have yet to see it. You can watch it for free with ads on YouTube. Another great movie to watch this week is The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society which has been mentioned on my blog many years ago.

It is of the highest importance that President Biden passes new legislation that brings us back to Bill Clinton policies regarding gun control in America. Americans do NOT need assault weapons on the streets. No normal citizen needs high-capacity magazines. Australia had a bad incident with a shooting, and ever since that event, they no longer have a concern with that topic. Please bring back policies that President Bill Clinton utilized. Ever since America removed those policies, shootings around the U.S. kept increasing. There’s even U.S. Senators in Congress who went to beg in front of Republicans to do what is right for our country. Please do the right thing. Children, teenagers and young adults do not feel safe in our schools. We must bring back the Assault Weapon ban. President Biden must stand up against these Republicans and Klansmen who stood in front of Beto. On another topic, Beto MUST become the next Texas Governor.

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 532 & BENKYO RADIO 532.

I watched the new Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, and it was quite peculiar! It’s a must-watch.

I am extremely excited about the NBA Finals. It’s between the Boston Celtics and the Golden State Warriors. Now this is very exciting because both teams support the Palestinian people. While I love and respect both teams, I hope it goes all the way to Game 7. I love Boston because of all things Irish including Guinness (now even available in 0.0% alcoholic beer) and San Francisco because we all love going to the Bay from time to time. If Boston wins, I hope Amazon Prime Video rewards us by releasing Jack Ryan Season 3 a little faster, since it’s been delayed for months now.

Until Next Time!
