Defending Halle!


By now the whole world knows that Halle Berry is knocked up by her boyfriend of two years Gabriel " what ever"! She has been telling the press for YEARS how she wanted a child and she wanted one before she turned 40. So when 40 came and went. She spread those Oscar winning legs and Gabriel was more than happy to provide his service.

Now all of a sudden. People are hating on the fact that she was knocked up by a White guy. But it's not just some Blacks who are leading the charge..................it's also Whites! Last week Halle received a death threat on her unborn baby. The note that was left at her doorstep said that the baby would be "cut into a hundred pieces"! After reading this. A very open and casual Halle is now paying for around the clock security at her home and when she travels.

I have read several Black oriented blogs as well as some White blogs and you should read some of the comments from their readers! Some Black women blaming jealous Black men for sending the note. Some Black men calling Gabriel a "punk" and not man enough to defend her. Whites calling Gabriel a worthless "gold digger" and a "man whore". In fact this photo at the top is from one of those blogs.

Some goes as far as saying that Blacks and Whites shouldn't be mingling in the first place. And some even calling Halle a " dumb and clueless actress" who is just trying to bleach out her " Blackness" by having a White father for her baby. Calling her "wannabe white", "hasn't been Black in years" and that " she thinks she can cater to Whites by having a 3/4 White baby"!

To me. This is the most disgusting and sick thing people can say about a person trying to find some happiness in her life. After two failed marriages and a former boyfriend who hit her so hard that she to this day has trouble hearing out of her left ear. This is how Halle is treated. What is happening to this country?. Race is splitting our society and our neighborhoods to a point that it is starting to feel like it's 1946! And why are some Blacks being so hard on a person who has broken the color barrier by winning an award that in it's 80 plus years of existence. NEVER once gave an Oscar for best actress to a Black actress before her. Yet alone "ANY" actress of color that honor?.

If anything. People should be happy that she has found someone who is treating her well and doesn't want to cheat on her, beat her, verbally abuse her, and try to make money off her. Despite what most people say that she had to fuck a White man in a movie to get an Oscar ( which is insane to even make that a claim). She won it because her role was the best that year! Now since then she has been picking some crap for movies! I ain't gonna let her slide on that one. But none of the other previous actresses who have won that award have fared any better.

Instead of digging in to her life and fucking with her happiness. Why don't we as a nation divert our attention to the 156,000 men and women who are putting their lives at risk for our nation. To focus on hating on Halle's life is like saying to the troops that you are risking your life so that we have the freedom to racially "hate" on another person! And in effect that makes us no better than the terrorist we are supposedly fighting in Iraq.

I know I have said this before. But I wish this country for once would just stand together and make this asshole in the White House bring our folks back from this useless war! And leeeeeeeeeeaveeeeeeee Halle ALONE! PLEEEEEEEEEEASE! That was my Chris Crocker impersonation!

I'm outta here!
