You thought Former NFL Running Back Travis Henry was a Dead Beat Dad; Check this Guy Out! Share your thoughts on the blog

written by Jouran Crosby

Read the article I pasted below about this Tennessee man who admitted in child support court to having 21 kids and he is only 29 years old. The crazy thing is the State of Tennessee is considering taking the max child support amount which is 50%, but that would only give each kid about $2 a month.

The guy says he is not trying to set a record, but I mean dude you work a minimum wage job and it seems like he is purposely sleeping with these women unprotected and having kids by them. Does he think he is going to get a reality show so he can pay for them? I think in situations like this he should be subject to a court ordered vasectomy, so he can't have any more of them.

Here is the biggest punchline ever, he says he is not a deadbeat because he knows every kids name, birthday and ages of all his children. Wow are you freaking kidding me? How about instead of laying down with chicks, he go get a second job and some education so that his irresponsible attitude is not a continued burden on taxpayers for the next 20 years. Now we all know that this dude is going to have more kids, so why he playing by saying he doesn't plan to have anymore?

Man o Man you gotta love ignorance at times. Let me pose this question, if many of the women knew about this man and his kids; why did they sleep with him unprotected? Or sleep with him period? I think a lot of them knew what they were getting into, thus the blame should fall on them as well. First you have Octomom who already had like 6 or 7 kids before she gave birth to 8 more; and now this guy.

- Tennessee man tells child support court he has 21 children

As if Octomom wasn't bad enough, a Tennessee man, 29 year old Desmond Hatchett has now fathered at least 21 children he can't support. Hatchett was in child support court again last week. His name appeared on the dockett 11 times in one day, representing 15 of his children.
Hatchett says he wasn't out to set a record. He says he never intended to have this many children, "It just happened." He fathered the children by at least 11 different women and he claims all of the mothers knew about his large family. The children range in age from newborn to 11 years old.
The question Knox County officials now face is how to support all these children. Hatchett works a minimum wage job and by law the state can only take 50% of his paycheck for child support. By the time that money is split 21 ways, some of the mothers get less than $2 per month. That leaves the taxpayers footing a large portion of the bill for these children.

Even though Hatchett can't support the children he has, there is nothing the state can do to prevent him from having more. Hatchett reports that he had 4 children in one year, twice. He says he's done having children now, but only time will tell. He does say that he's a good father and knows the names, ages, and birthdates of all of his children.

All of the blame can't be placed on Hatchett in this case. One has to wonder about the women who chose to have his children. In the end, the children and the taxpayers of Tennessee will pay for their choices for years to come.

TI when are you going to learn?

T.I. was to report to jail today at 1:00pm in Arkansas and he didn't; hopefully there is a real good excuse for him being late. One day man...one day.. I know he has done a lot but one may wonder did he do it because he got caught or did he do it because he wanted to really change? We can only speculate what his thoughts are, but either way arriving late doesn't look good at all.

(reported by AP)
FORREST CITY, Ark. — A deadline passed and Atlanta rapper T.I. had not gone through the gate to the federal prison in Forrest City, where he was to begin serving time for a weapons conviction.

T.I., whose real name is Clifford J. Harris Jr., was to report to the minimum security prison on the complex by noon CDT to start his sentence of a year and a day. He performed Sunday night in Atlanta, where he told his audience he’d return in “366 days.”

A black Ford van arrived at the prison at 12:29 p.m. CDT and was allowed inside, though no indication was given whether T.I was inside.

A federal prisons spokesman said after the deadline that Harris was not listed in custody.
Harris could face more than eight years in prison if he does not meet terms of his plea deal.

Man Arrested for Tattooing His Infant...WTF!!!!

A Floyd County man has been charged with child cruelty after authorities say he tattooed his 3-year-old son.

Floyd County Police Sgt. Teri Davis said Eugene Ashley, 24, tattooed his son’s back right shoulder with “DB,” which stands for “Daddy’s Boy,” sometime this spring. The child’s mother, Amy Ashley, was not present during the incident.

The tattoo was discovered after an unidentified person complained to the Department of Family and Child Services about the conditions at the Ashley home. The Ashleys have several children, Davis said.

The children remain with their mother. Eugene Ashley was arrested May 21 and faces charges of child cruelty and tattooing a person younger than 18 years old, the latter being a misdemeanor, Davis said.
Ashley has been released from jail. Information on his bond amount was not immediately available.

What the heck was this dude thinking? All you can say is this is what happens when individuals who are not playing with a full deck have kids. The sad thing is when he gets out he'll get his kids back, why though?

Does President Obama Owe the State of Nevada an Apology?

A few months ago when making a speech about the way companies that accepted bailout funds are spending their money, President Obama made this comment "...business leaders receiving money from the government  can’t get corporate jets. You can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayer’s dime...”  According to the governor of Nevada, he stated that after those comments were made Las Vegas suffered numerous convention cancellations thus resulting in over $100 million of lost revenue. Now here we are today; the President invited the Governor to meet him when he is in Nevada and the Governor gracefully declined. In addition, he asked the President to apologize to him for the comments and make statements supporting Nevada tourism by businesses and business leaders. 

Now back to the title, does President Obama owe the State of Nevada a apology? I can see why most people say No, but I can also see why most people will say Yes. Here is my opinion...I would have to say Yes he does and this is why. President Obama has to understand that he can not just use any coined statement; when the President speaks, regardless if people or businesses agree with him, they will listen. Now we can't say that his words cost the state that money, however, we can't say it didn't either. What we can say is that he could of chose his words more wisely and made a general connotation to lavish trips such as vacations and expensive sporting events, however to single out specific places to get a point across not only hurts him, but hurts possible or potential constituents in those communities that supported him. See with those cancellations came a reduction in jobs or staffing hours thus resulting in decrease subordinate work. 

I understand that many of you will not agree with this blog, but if you take a second to look at it not as a Democrat and Republican, but say someone in the service industry and the President made these statements about your state. How would you feel? Do you think you would be upset? If you were a political official would you want a apology and/or some time of retraction made? Many things one can ponder, but the end result is he should apologize for pointing the finger and not speaking in general context terms.
