Well, Joe, mainly because their "pain" is not grounded in reality.

I am sorry that they are suffering under the misapprehension that there is an epidemic of blacks being unjustly killed by police. The numbers reflect no such thing.

Can you show me where Joe limited his statement solely to "blacks being unjustly killed by police"?

Somebody wanted to stir the shite this morning.

What is wrong with you? He literally said he stands with Black people and this was the first thing that came to your mind?

I’m actually ok with the boycotts if they set up a mandate:

1) we boycott until this officer and the cops involved are brought to some action or correction
2) same for their managers
3) if it’s a policy that needs to be changed let’s change it
4) moving forward what will the consequences be for violating new policy.

And if all college athletes want to boycott along w NBA and NFL and MLB I would be for it.

But not playing games without a specific request won’t get very far and will allow the actual uninformed to “not get it”

That is the dominant narrative today. If it makes you feel any better about my objectivity, the data also shows that blacks are statistically more likely to be roughed up during an arrest than whites even in the same situations. That is a problem.

BTW, the data also shows that blacks, specifically black males (7% of the population), commit an absurdly disproportionate amount of all unjust killings in the US. That is also a problem.

Studies actually show that police are more likely to use deadly force against whites than blacks, but you would never suspect that by watching the news. Again, they are more likely to use nonlethal excessive force against blacks, which very likely IS racism.

The one thing that can get Tigerdroppings to turn on Joe is finding out he's anti racism.

These young people can't see through the bullshite.

In fairness it’s Tiger Rant that will turn on Joe because Tiger Rant is not the best of us. It’s the worst of us Redneck wise. And by Redneck I mean Negatigers.

Joe stands with his teammates and friends, a true leader and a True Tiger

99.99999999% of people killed by police are pure fricking scum. So what fricking pain is he talking about? The fake pain Lebron feels?

I'm over this entire stupid argument.
