Until they quit being racist and see that everything isn't about skin color, rather 99.9% of the time it's about how you present yourself and your own actions.

I truly do not get this one. George Floyd was understandable.

This one seems to be a completely justified shooting. So perplexing

Lebron won’t let them cancel the season. That window is closing.

yeah for one maybe two days. But will he agree to a full fledged cancellation of the playoff


If they play in two days this means squat and just another hollow jesture. If I’m the owners I just shut it all down for breech of contract, refuse to pay them and see how it plays out....

Since when is shooting a man seven times in the back justifiable? At worst criminal, at best cowardly.

Since the man fought with police, possessed a knife, and then reached into his vehicle. That is a HUGE no-no when dealing with police, even more so when you have a history of gun violence.

The amount of times he was shot is irrelevant, you're taught to shoot until the threat is eliminated. Nobody counts shots.

Well at the time, I can understand. Now that we have the full facts on Floyd, bodycam, tox screen, ME report, not so much.

It was revealed today he had a lethal dose of fentnyal in his system, and his death any other time would have been ruled an overdose.

Uh. He had a knife. Fought police. Resisted arrest. Was tased and still resisted arrest. Police told him to stop. He reached into his vehicle.

Justified in every way.

I think a big part of this is the isolation and loneliness that these guys are feeling right now.

Tons of “sources” saying they believe the season will be cancelled.

I hope so.

Then I hope the owners cancel the CBA.

I mean, obviously the police should have let him grab whatever he was going grab (probably a gun, he does have that history) and enter into a shootout with him in a neighborhood with a dozen or more people all around.

When he is going into his car to get something after wrestling away from your attempted arrest.

Cowardly? this is the police. Not some wild west duel.

Lebron has already gone on record saying he thinks he’s the GOAT just because he won a title in Cleveland.

And he’s a total narcissist who is probably thinking if he leads a cancellation of the season he’ll go down in history as some type of Jackie Robinson. That’s way better in his mind then risking getting his arse kicked by Kawhi, who shunned him to play for another LA team.
