Why would you laugh at that an not that the police are systematically racist? Do you find it odd you laugh at the one that is statistically tue and support the one that verifiably false?

If you don’t understand the deeper rooted issues in black on black crime I can’t really help you.

It doesn’t take but a tad bit of critical thinking

Do you not know what interracial means?

I’m talking about how a white person is much more likely to be killed by a black person than a black person is to be killed by a white person.

I never said anything about black on black crime.

NBA with BLM on the court and jersey names able to be turned into a social justice message instead.

NFL social justice decals on the helmet.

ESPN to run political segments.

Even collegiate universities with all of their "woke" sentiments and mini-videos. (I know, recruiting ... i guess)

Is the leadership at these institutions that boneheaded to not realize that sports is an escape from all the bullshite politics? Am i the only one that's amazed at how stupid these decisions are?

Will i still watch? Sure. (well not ESPN political programming) But it's definitely annoying.

So much for enjoying sports for the escape of it all...

I fail to see how what I posted can be construed as knighting but maybe its my fault to expect intellectual consistency here

Deeper rooted issues? Like the lack of two-parent, structured households? The lack of accountability? Bringing children into the world when you can’t afford it?

I’m sure you mean to say the black-on-black crime is rooted in the evils of whites.

Why bother with sports and get out of the house to what ever is nice to do in the West Coast. There got to be something to do there and not depending on sports!

Where did the term woke come from?

Is it because black folks say "he's woke " instead of" he's awake"?

I don't really think that, just don't know the true reason
