There Hate never did anybody any good. Hate is harmful to the hated and the hater alike. Hate is poison in the heart and mind and a horror to all of humankind. That's why hate must stop with us. Right now, our Jewish neighbors are facing an unprecedented wave of hate simply for existing Families are being harassed, people are being attacked, synagogues are vandalized, homes destroyed simply because the people are who they are. People claim the hatred is justified, but no hatred against another ever really is. Why? Because hate against one community spreads to other communities. And if it can happen to them, it can happen to us. It has happened to us, and it has to stop. Black, Jewish, Latino, and Muslim, we must stand together against hate. We must say loud and clear that we will not let hate win. Don't be ignorant and indifference. Educate yourself and rise [e-mail] Today's episode.

He haw bitch key haw. It's time for donkey of the day.

[Angela Yee]

I'm a bitch big boy.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

I could take it if he feel I deserve it. Ain't no big deal. I know Charlemagne funny say out his mouth. Say something you may not agree with.

[Jess Hilarious]

Doesn't mean I'm mean who's getting that donkey?

[Charlamagne Tha God]

That donkey, that donkey. Donkey, donkey, donkey, donkey. Donkey of the day right there. Breakfast club. You can call me the donkey of the day but like I mean no harm. Yeah, Donkey Today for Wednesday, October 15th goes to a 45 year old woman from Toledo, Ohio named Gianita Hoppings. Okay. Gianita has recently turned herself in on charges of felonious assault and aggravated burglary. Who did Gianetta assault and who did she burglarize? Well, let's go to ABC13 for the report, please.

[News Reporter]

Warren is out for the arrest of a Toledo woman accused of breaking into a man's home then cutting one of his testicles. Toledo police looking for Janita Hopings. We're going to show you a picture from 2012 of Hoping's. Police believe the 45 year old woman went to the home of someone she knows yesterday. Kicked down the door, kicked open the door. The guy living there told police he heard someone breaking in. So he ran down the stairs, but he didn't have any clothes on. That's when Hoping's allegedly attacked him, cutting one of his testicles. He had to go to the hospital for treatment. Hoping's is charged with felonious assault and aggravated burglary.

[Charlamagne Tha God]

She tried to hack off his happy sack. Okay, how you break in my house and try to trim my tender twins. Ladies, ladies, ladies. Do I have to be the one to tell you that when you in a relationship with a man or dealing with a man, as soon as you do something like Giannetta did, the man wins. You think you hurt him by cutting his dangly bits, but really you hurt yourself more. Let's just say the man is cheating on you. Okay? I understand you being upset. I understand emotions can override logic, but you can't allow it to because while you in jail, okay, and then, you know, fighting to stay out of prison, having to spend money on a bond and lawyer fees and all types of stuff, that man is still going to be out here living his best life with other women. Okay? Those same jiggly gems you cut will be sucked on by another woman while you trying to figure out how to pay your legal fees. And I'm gonna tell you another part of the story that's nuts to me, okay? According to 13 Action News, you just heard it. The victim told investigators that he heard someone break in, so he ran downstairs to see who it was, and he did not have on clothes at the time. Now, I'm not the highest grade of weed in the dispensary, but this is why I keep some basketball shorts and a T shirt on the floor by the bed. Because God forbid, okay, someone break into my house, first thing I'm grabbing is the clothes. The clothes I'm putting on and the pistol, okay? Are you crazy? Running downstairs butt naked because you thought someone broke into your house? Why the hell would you want to meet your intruders butt ass naked? The only butt naked men that could scare burglars when they break in is Fleece Johnson and Diddy. Okay, Seriously, men, I need y' all to be better prepared. Keep some basketball shorts, sweatpants, a T shirt, a hoodie by the bed, just in case. Not to mention my brothers, if burglars break in your house and you butt naked, you might find out why pirates call treasure booty. But I don't want a victim shame here, okay? Gianetta is the issue. We have to find more rational ways to deal with our emotions. No man is worth you going to jail over. Now, I don't know the extent of her relationship with this man, but I know she has an electric monitor on now, and the judge ordered her to have no contact with the victim, all because she decided to break in a man's house and cut his pillow pebbles. And by the way, I'm not even mad at her for cutting his coin purse because he had his Crown Royal bag exposed for the world to see. If you think you're gonna get in an altercation with someone butt naked and they not going for your chuckle nuggets, then you are insane. Listen, the moral of the story is this. Don't make lifelong choices in moments of short term emotion because those feelings will fade. But those consequences, they don't. Please give Giannetta hoping the sweet sounds of the hammer tones.
