Not true at all based on the mass shooting definition used by the media

I thought it was pretty clear if they weren’t going to stick to sports that they should speak out in ACTUAL issues like youth violence amongst American cities

School shootings? Yes.
Mass shootings as defined by the people pushing for gun control? No.

This could actually be a good opportunity for the NBA to be a positive influence for young black fans who are at risk of falling into this lifestyle.
Of course they aren’t going to do it and people like you don’t want them to, but it’s worth talking about

The NBA should shut up and dribble, but it's pretty clear that they aren't going to do that. So, if they are going to speak on social issues, maybe they should speak on social issues that actually matter, not just issues that get virtue points on reddit/twitter.

I cannot for the life of me understand why having a good upbringing with a loving family is a bad thing
Because America’s culture is completely broken.
Look at the music that is popular. Look at the “hero’s” in the movies/shows Hollywood is producing. Look at the polling data showing values being embraced by average Americans.
We are undoubtedly a culture in decline

You mean the predominately white owned media outlets that don't report the real numbers when it comes to shootings in America?

The predominantly white owned media that says white people are the greatest threat to democracy

Saw a post that stated Zion and Ja epitomized America's biggest problems, obesity and guns. Made me LOL.

I don’t think it’s just Black America that glorifies the the gun life. It’s an American issue. I’ll leave it at that because this is not the Poli Board.

What numbers aren't getting reported?
Are there large amounts of killings that are going unnoticed?
