I guess I’m just confused why the majority of people ITT seem to be more upset with Lebron than the two white guys...


Welcome to TD!

They’re just upset because there are other social issues like gang violence that they think he should be focusing on. Totally has nothing to do with any racist feelings they harbor

Y'all need to lay off Lebron. He is LITERALLY hunted EVERY DAY/ EVERY TIME he steps out the comfort of his mansion compound in a gated community or a security chauffeured convoy. Not to mention, when he's not on a private jet. He has a lynch mob after him constantly that even spray paints racist graffiti targeting him. He should be commended for his bravery and social awareness.

This isn’t even about race. Lebron is just a phony dumbass who has an extremely high opinion of himself. I feel the same way about other Hollywood liberals lecturing me.

This thread is about Lebron’s comments on the MSB. I have and other’s probably have also made comments about this issue on other boards that are discussing the actual issue itself.

Hopefully they do not have any guns out there in LA county

O wait

The privileged people that bitch on Twitter about injustice get those licenses. Nevermind.

I guess that’s fair. And I think Lebron’s comments are obviously over exaggerated, but I don’t get that some people are more upset about Lebron’s reaction than the actual shooting.

Same with Shaun King’s statement... and I say that as someone who loathes Shaun King.

Next, you said it could apply to thousands. Yeah, I don't think it's strange or wrong to think there are a couple thousands of white people in a country of 330 million who might call 911 on a black guy running in their neighborhood, as someone did in this case.


So it's easier for you to find and quote one of my posts than it is to find the post of your own where you allegedly offered proof LeBron directed this at all white people.

Just admit you never posted proof and that you don't have it.

The post of mine you quoted, I was making a simple point. You said LeBron was blaming thousands of white people as racists. I responded that in a country with about 160 million white people, there were definitely a few thousand racists.

I stand by that. For 5,000 white people to be racist, that would mean 0.00003% of white people in America are racist. I don't think that's a weird claim one bit.

That would mean 3 of every 100,000 white people is racist. If LeBron meant that (which you claimed with no proof) thousands of white racists is a pretty small proportion.

Also, I'll still ban myself if you give me the previous post you've promised has the proof LeBron meant all white people. Offer still stands.

Its not a weird claim at all

In fact it would be an amazing stat anywhere else in the world.

A couple thousand KKK members at the absolute most is the end of the world in a country of 350 million people.

It is literally a joke.

There are street gangs with no territory in Chicago with more members than that.

It is pathetic for anyone to even bring it up. Its irrelevant.

That man should have never been killed like that, but LeBron isn’t helping. He may think he is, but he is only making it worse, IMO.

Obviously LeBron heard Jay Williams assessment that he is the GOAT because of his social activism, so he felt the need to give validity to Jay Williams statement by speaking on the matter. Unfortunately for LeBron he just looks like a hypocritical dumb arse because he fails to understand his tweet is devisive and racist. He is embarrassingly tone deaf. I can hear all the idiots at ESPN praising his bravery right now.

If you are more upset by LeBron's comments than by the death of Ahmaud Arbery, you are the problem.

You doubt there are 5,000 white racists in the US?

There are 3,000 KKK members as of 2017's last count, so that's over halfway there with one organization. Add in the National Front, which is an explicitly Neo-Nazi group and you're already at 5k.
