Thank you, I frequent your blog daily, and as an American woman, I am happy and sad for a number of reasons. I’m happy that FINALLY an African American blogger such as yourself uses your media/gossip outlet to display and educate my fellow citizens on serious issues that are facing us. The video of the Sudan woman being beaten brought imminent tears and state of awe at the way Muslim women around the globe are being treated due to foolish event we take for granted. And what sicken me is the comments by individual on your blog. Here we have a woman publicly flocked for basically nothing while many laugh, and many see no problem with that.
OUR president files a complain to the United Nations about inhumane treatment by the state of Arizona for securing its boarder, and the very country publicly flocking a woman is the one on the U.N. board judging AMERICA for violating human rights. An many see no issue here, what is going on with my fellow country men, what? Are we so blind by our own freedom, that others seeking the same is throw aside an cast as unimportant…why? You mention Shria Law and President Obama wanting it practice here in the U.S.(which you are So right), and the reaction was disturbing to me.
No one took this matter as inhumane and wrong, many questioned what is the President ties to this event. I’m troubled that many are still walking with blinders on, and thinking this country is being run perfectly, by and known incompetent radical leader. Thank you for being a true patriot, and telling the truth when many are so blind to it. I hope the ones who can’t see severe issues beyond our presidents color, wake up, because our country is slowly being transform and our constitution is being walked on and raped on my the very ones the believe has our best interest at heart.
Thank you Sandra Rose, PLEASE continue to post the issues that affects us a Americans and Global Citizens, because of your blog, (THE ONLY ONE THAT TOUCHES ON REAL IMPORTANT ISSUES THAT AFFECTS US ALL), MANY are aware and awake, BUT EVEN MORE still have their heads in the sand and are unaware that a game is being played here while our freedom, and lives at stake.

Sandra,
Greetings to you and yours this holiday season.
I just want to say that I’ve read your blog for the past several months. I’ve found it entertaining and at times even informative, however I noticed a couple of recurring themes…First, whats the issue that you have with LSLH chicks???
It seems that if a female has a light complexion and long hair, you always find a beef. Sandra, how small and petty. I am very disappointed that you would use your forum to spread ignorance, hate and bigotry, based on the superficiality of looks alone. It reflects very poorly and negatively on YOU. Its immature and a sad example for your younger, more impressionable readers. SHAME on YOU!!!Also, whats up with the O’Bama bashing??? You say that you’re British, well if you are, why are you all up in our African American Presidents business??? You say things that you know are NOT TRUE (he’s NOT a Muslim) and continuously perpetuate the negative stereo-type that Blacks are not as good or capable leaders. SHAME SHAME SHAME.
I lived in Great Britain for a few years and met many wonderful people. Though we had our differences, I’m proud to say that we were never disrespectful or angry towards each other while expressing our views and opinions. It saddens me that someone like you with the ability to spread massive and powerful positive messages would use your platform for Pettiness, Bitterness, Narrow-mindedness, Ignorance and out right LIES.
So, in case your mother never told you, please use this adage in the future “if you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say anything.” There’s enough ignorance, hate and venom in the world without you adding to it, so leave all that negative TRASH talking and DRAMA alone…

Hey Sandra, haven’t emailed you in a while. I am writing to say I missed NB on 106. I caught a little of the twitter buzz, I like Necole a lil bit. My thing is why didn’t she announce she was going to be on 106? I was curious to see the video & what she had on. Every body was ” oh she looked so cute, her hair was nice….” and I knew she was going to post the next day, but at this point in time she hasn’t. Moving on I logged on to your site and I must say I am a little disappointed, that was a hot mess and I am rooting for her ( & you too :)). I’m really writing to say thanks for posting a piece, because it don’t look like she is going to. Dang when you have to get the scoop on one blogger from another!
Hope your day is going swell ! No shade meant by me writing to you about another blogger and i’m sure ( I hope) you don’t mind. I would support you the same way. 2011 i’m trying to be positive, less critical & judgemental & supportive good day!

Once again you are giving people incorrect information. There is nothing in Islam that teaches that you whip anyone woman or male in the street. This is NOT SHARIA this is a cultural thing that has nothing to do with Islam. I think before you continue to criticize a persons religion you should learn it not guess or make up stuff as you go along.I think with you being someone that is in the media that thousands of people read you should get your information correct before you go misinforming the masses.It is apparent that you have a problem with Islam a big problem and it shows in your writings. Try picking a Quran or some books on Islam and learn before you type. Have you ever heard the expression think before you speak or how about if you have nothing good to say than say nothing at all.

Dear Sandra Rose
I am an avid reader of your blog, I absolutely love it, but one this that really makes me cringe is your HATE for President Barack Obama, you always ridicule him, he has obviously stated in the past that he was not MUSLIM and I thought you would respect that, on another note you always make it seem that being MUSLIM is some sort of disease or crime, I thought you were educated enough to respect other people’s religion and I really take offense by that, I love being MUSLIM and it is a peaceful religion, just because we have some extremist groups does not mean the religion is not peaceful, it’s like me saying all CATHOLIC people are sexual predators hence most catholic priests are known for sexually abusing young boys. So please refrain from bad mouth Islam.
