Killer Company, Part One
Killer Company, Part One Andrei Chikatilo Ukranian cannibal, Andrei Chikatilo. Andrei Chikatilo was born in 1936 in the village of Yablochnoye in Ukraine to an absent father and a brutal, domineering mother. His mother claimed he had an older brother that was stolen and subsequently eaten by neighbors, a tale that wasn't hard to believe as Andrei was born during the agricultural recession to farmer parents. His young life was brutal, with his mother often reminding him of what happened to his brother. School was not easy for Andrei either. He was a small child and much weaker than his peers. After his father committed the unforgivable sin of being taken hostage as a prisoner of war during World War II, the schoolchildren found Andrei's father to be a traitor instead of a victim, and they punished Andrei for it every chance they got. Even through all the bullying at school and horrendous conditions, he lived inside his parents ramshackle shanty, and Chikatilo was an exceptional student and maintained high grades.

Talking Star: 'The Star Report: Chris Brown Allegedly Sniffing Coke in Club'
With a short description of a rainy, cloudy day with no sun, Star says that he had a beautiful day. Earlier, he journeyed to Lake Lenier for some R&R. He sums up by saying he enjoyed his life that Sunday. Soon, the tone becomes more serious. The story of the shooting of the unarmed woman by police in Fort Worth, Texas enlivens Mr. Torain. Star reverts to the old adage, that there’s something in the water down there in Texas. Of course, he doesn’t mean this literally, but it stirs the pot. In another story, a Dayton, Ohio man was shot down in his attempt to rob a store.

"Talking Star: 'The Star Report': Can You Defend Yourself Against Transgenders?"
Star is Chucky, “the friend you don’t need.” He’s “very bothered.” By being a little annoyed and flustered, he might flip on white people, he says. The prevailing fallacy is that Star only dumps on blacks. He hates everyone, objectively. Mr. Torain wants to give these young black women out here a pass. Star doesn’t allow paragraphs on his phone from other males. Any emojis will mean a block, an ‘LOL’ or ‘K’ will mean that you will be digitally disowned by the Hater. Star then talks about the Triniatarios throwing up gang signs during their sentencing in the murder of Junior Guzman-Feliz.

Cruel and Unusual Punishments
Dear Readers. I know this is way overdue, but it still bothers me. So I am still talking about it. On October 2nd, 2019, former Dallas police officer Amber Guyger was sentenced to 10 years in prison for murdering a neighbor in his own home. She walked into the wrong apartment and shot the victim, Botham Jean, dead on the spot. The strangest part, in my opinion, was that the defense could use what we call The Castle Doctrine in America. It states that a person can in fact use deadly force to protect one’s home and its inhabitants from invaders. Which is uncanny, considering that it was not her home. Nevertheless, it was futile as she was indeed found guilty by the jury. She will be eligible for parole in five years. However, what took occurrence after the verdict has become a story on its own.

Rashida holds that Cardi B is a “baby Evelyn Lozada.” She criticizes the fact that Cardi is free in the world because of her complexion. Star asks Rashida if she still remained an item with a light-skinned man. Mr. Torain jokes saying that Rashida nabbed an albino. Quickly, he asks if it is high time to cancel Evelyn.

"Talking Star: 'The Star Report: Do Snitches Really Get Stitches?'"

Stevie Wonder, according to Mr. Torain, could have provided intelligence on how someone gunned down Brown. A caller says that people from the sheriff to the judge acted “unprofessionally.”

Talking Star: 'Are Black People Really on Code?'
Mr. Torain is an informant. He tells. He’s a snitch. And this is meant in the best way. Star testifies that he got caught lacking and that a young lady may be on Instagram with a photo of her and Star in the bed. Mr. Torain then switches lanes and talks about the judge hugging Guyger and giving her a Bible. Next, Star breaks down how there’s a difference between bleach blonde and natural. White women who have naturally blonde hair want the “goddess look.” Bleach blondes are just reaching. Then, Star delineates the question of the show concerning blacks being on code or within a collective, advancing in society. He ponders whether as a group, blacks can better themselves in the context of the “greater good.”
