A LOOK INTO THE TRAGEDY AT THE ROLLING STONES' ALTAMONT CONCERT Wikimedia Commons BY NICHOLAS VRCHOTICKY/NOV. 15, 2020 1:01 AM EST The Rolling Stones are a sight to see, and they were even more during their heyday, which the rockers from England hit during the late '60s. You can still catch a show sometime in the near future to hear Mick Jagger groove and buy up all of your authentic Rolling Stones mouth merch since they have a tour lined up, set to go after the pandemic-related postponement. But, you might think twice about catching a Stones show after you learn the tragic history of the Rolling Stones' Altamont concert. The Rolling Stones' Altamont concert was ...

If you thought comedy was dead because of woke hysteria, fear no longer. Hollywood has come to the rescue. The Academy—a misnomer if there ever was one—has decreed that a movie can no longer be eligible for an Academy Award unless it meets certain criteria. A group of greedy lowlifes will now decide what’s good for us to view, but such are the joys of La La Land nowadays. (Surely you’ve read about it: In order to be considered for prizes, movies have to include blacks, homosexuals, lesbians, transsexuals, queers, and the disabled, the latter preferably of mixed race.) Ticking all the boxes while casting a movie will now also come under Oscar consideration, while the ...

Sidney Poitier, in one of his most-celebrated roles, appears as Virgil Tibbs, a Philadelphia homicide detective who, while visiting a small Mississippi town, will find himself falsely arrested for a murder and then, in a strained collaboration with the town's sheriff (Rod Steiger), stays on to help solve the murder. Steiger's town is a backward "redneck" Southern burg whose population includes an aristocratic racist, the eccentric owner of a fly-infested diner, exceptionally stupid cops, young thugs who beat up "niggers" for the fun of it and a young woman who provocatively cools herself by standing nude at her window. When the murder is finally solved, Poitier ...

(History begins to suffer a bit along about this point.) A U. S. Marine unit, headed by Lieutenant O'Bannon, was sent to attack them from the rear.
