It's time for donkey of the day donkey's of the day i'm a democrat so being donkey of the day is a little bit of a mixed place so like a donkey keyhole okay the breakfast club bitches now i've been called a lot in my 23 years but donkey of the day is a new one that's right we got the ace of spades in the Starbucks cups, baby, because N-O-I-E is hell. That's right. Donkey of the day for Thursday, January 23rd goes to an Annapolis, Maryland man named Michael

Gibson and a 31-year-old man named Thomas Smith. I'm using the word man loosely. Okay, this young brother is 23 years old. Michael Gibson is, but we all know the full development of the prefrontal cortex isn't fully accomplished until the age of 25, but the law don't give a damn and the reality is they shouldn't especially when it comes to what this uh young man did now michael gibson is 23 and he was sentenced to life in

prison with all but 80 years suspended for first degree murder and 20 years concurrent for using a firearm i don't know what any of that means it just sounds like forever okay in fact when i hear sentences like that prison sentences like that, I think to myself, what does the judicial system, the judicial, my envision line got in my way. What does the justice system know about the afterlife that we don't? Okay. When they give out those kinds of sentences, are they talking about this lifetime and the next?

Because they can't possibly expect me to do all this time in this dimension. No way Michael was given eternal time. Okay. can't possibly expect me to do all this time in this dimension no way Michael was given eternal time okay what did Michael do for a judge to sentence him to prison forever well he was promised $3,200 to kill a man and he did it yes $3,200 to kill a man not just any man it was his mom's longtime boyfriend and because his mom and his boyfriend had an argument that he didn't like he decided to hire someone uh to kill them the guy thomas smith did thomas smith hired michael gibson to kill his mom's longtime boyfriend for 3200 as much as jody hated melvin and baby boy he didn't even attempt to do nothing like that

in fact jody stepped to melvin got his ass knocked out fell through a glass table got his ass choked a little bit from the back hell jody even cocked the gun on melvin but didn't raise it and melvin ended up taking it away the point is mama gotta have a life too and if mama is arguing with her boyfriend of course you know you don't let anybody disrespect your mom but hire somebody to kill him you're going to erase two lives yours and his because of 3200 i know 3200 seems like a lot of money and it is but not incarcerated forever money okay 3200 is barely rent money for some people 3200 you can't even get a bbl the average bbl price is 6200 you got to kill two people at 3200 a piece to be able to afford one bbl and you're only going to have 200

left now i've heard you know i've never killed anybody or shot anybody, but I heard that after you do it, you are extremely hungry for days. Nori, is that true? Yes. I don't know what you're talking about. I'm going to be honest. I'm so intrigued by you doing Ducky the Day in front of me. Talk to the mic, man.

You got the mic on the table. Ducky the Day in front of me. I was just sitting there. Nori said yes. And then he said, I don't know what you're talking about. My bad. All I'm saying is $200 will not be enough to eat for the rest of the week if you have to kill two people and pay for a BBL.

Listen, my fellow Americans, I really don't know what we have gone wrong, but generations are failing generations. Thomas Smith is 31. Michael Gibson is 23 so that's an eight-year age difference do we realize the difference that is think about an 18 year old schooling a 10 year old how much more life that 18 year old has lived in that 10 year old that 18 year old has already learned to drive he's graduated high school about to start college eight years that's two presidential terms all right a 31 year old

should be schooling a 23 year old to the game of life right a 32 year old can have a major influence and impact on a 23 year old same way you can give him 3200 and encourage him to kill somebody you could have said hey man i'm gonna put this money towards you learning the trade you know i'm gonna put this money towards sending you to barber school now don't get me wrong trade school and barber school costs more than 3200 but you understand what i'm saying you have the ability to point this young man in the right direction but instead you decided to turn this young man into a crash test dummy and now his life is finished and did you know this young man was prohibited from possessing a firearm due to a previous conviction so this lets me know this young man is one of them ones you know the

ones i'm talking about the young shooter okay think old dog and menace bishop and juice poppy from left rack he's that young man folks in the community know is one black and mild short of a five pack but instead of someone putting their arm around the brother showing them love and getting them on the right path they decided to aid and abet his dysfunction okay the scripture teaches uh old men and women for counsel young men and women for war. But it should be war against the system, okay? A war against oppression and perpetual exploitation. A war against ignorance.

A war against piss-poor morals and values. Not war against each other. Please let Remy Ma give Michael Gibson and Thomas Smith the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother******, are you dumb? All right. Whole world, y'all. All right. Well, thank y'all. All right.

Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Better bundle up. Donkey of the day is brought to you by the law office of Michael S. Laminsoff. Don't be a donkey. Dial pound 250 on your cell and say the bull if you've been hurt in a construction accident. That's pound 250 from your cell and say the bull. Hello, my undeadly darlings.
