Would you call having 22 kids by 14 women ambition?

What is ambition?

To me, ambition is aspiring to be the best person you can be, and then improve on it so that you disprove all rational thoughts that people had about you.

Take for instance Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash. Almost everyone said that these young men would be bums and would never make a name for themselves. Yet they aspired to greatness and look where it got them.

AMBITION.

Mahatma Gandhi was another example of this. When he said he was going to change the world through NON VIOLENCE. People seriously doubted his mental capabilities. Yet look what he achieved.

AMBITION.

Finally, dictionary.com defines ambition as: an earnest desire for some type of achievement or distinction, as power, honor, fame, or wealth, and the willingness to strive for its attainment.

Why am I saying this? Well, because for most rational people, being ambitious means striving to make more money or to get a job/social prestige which would make people proud of you. Not so?

I cant pay support for 22 kids. these people know that!

This, my friends is not the case with a certain Mr Orlando Shaw who is a resident of Nashville Tennessee.

I came across the sad case of Shaw when I was cruising the headlines of the Huffington Post this morning. This man….this utter BASTION of human ambition has fathered 22 kids with 14 women!

Outside of the courthouse he was doing an interview with the Huffington Post and when the reporter asked him: “why did you do it? Did the thoughts of contraceptives ever cross your mind?” he simply said: “I was young…AMBITIOUS…and loved women. Nobody can fault me for loving women!”

 Can you actually come to terms with that number? That’s being a father to two soccer teams with almost a full rugby team of women! When that’s your main ambition in life, I’ve got some bad news for you.

Let’s take a closer look at this. Common sense says that if you are a father’s ass you will take care of the kids emotionally and financially.

He is currently at court “fighting for his life” because he can’t afford maintenance payments on 22 kids. Now I don’t care how rich your ass is…even Donald Trump and Richard Branson will struggle paying this type of child support.

And then there is the emotional part. Let’s say all his kids are a year apart. This means that he would have had to make a girl pregnant every year for 22 straight years. Even porn stars don’t get that lucky. So the likelihood that at least four or even five of these kids are the same age is good. I don’t care how much BULLSHIT you talk or want to even believe. Any father will struggle to be there emotionally for two kids who are the same age.

What type of a role model is he? You know, my father and I never had the best relationship. In fact we OFTEN had arguments and battles which would have made Itchy and Scratchy very proud. But the best piece of advice he ever gave me was “Never create a life for yourself that’s unsustainable.” Supporting 22 kids is not sustainable by any stretch of the imagination.

Now when his kids become adults, what role model do they have? Go and have 22 kids. Don’t worry, you won’t have to pay child support. Just tell the judge you can’t pay this.

The person I feel the most for in this situation is in fact the judge. Because once you have moved beyond the fact that this man standing before you is a father to two soccer teams with almost a full rugby team of women, and once you have moved beyond the fact that you want to call this man and his ladies the dumbest people on earth, you have to deal with the fact that you now have to make a ruling in this case.

Clearly this man cant pay child support for 22 kids. So the rational thing to do is find out how many kids he can pay for. Let’s say for example its 10. Which ten get the support and which 12 don’t? According to the law he may be compelled to pay for those under the age of 16 because they can’t legally find work. Ok fine…what if this number is 13? Which 3 lose out then?

Booker T. Can You Dig It Sukka!

This is just another sad case of what I refer to as Ghetto Syndrome. These kids will never feel properly loved and will never have the security of a stable income generating environment. What happens to these people. They belong to gangs in order to compensate for the love that they never felt and they turn to crime to pay the bills. And again they don’t have a great role model because Shaw has a criminal record.

There are many sad things about this story. First we have Orlando Shaw himself who’s main ambition in life is to have as many kids as he can. Second we have the women who are dumb enough to fall for his trickery and lastly we have the fact that this man does not exactly have the looks of a Denzel Washington. He is a hybrid of Busta Rhymes and Booker T.

Now CAN YOU DIGG THAT?

SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKAAAAAAAAAAA!
