I could NEVER have that much compassion for my fellow man. I salute HER! One in a million! She is a better person than myself or most everybody that I have met in TV Land. She is a Saint. And also, everyone knows that Lebron James is highly respected for his giving back to his community and many causes. He is a future leader and a possible Gov. of Ohio. Doc Rivers was right to cry as he said, "We have Loved America, why does not America LOVE us back?????

Completely agree with this post.
My wife and I recently moved to the "bubble." After reading this thread I'm starting to believe some of the warnings we were given about the attitudes of many in the bubble. There are so many strong (and sometimes) racist comments made here in TOTV that are concerning to me. To add on to the above post, there are many professional athletes that give millions of dollars to their communities. They build homes, schools, community centers and much more. Do a little research before you call these athletes thugs and such. Do you not understand what is (and has been happening in America) forever? I have many friends that are black, hispanic, asian, indian, etc and also friends that are cops. Have you ever spoken to any of these people and tried to understand their lives? If so, you may feel a bit differently.
Thanks for letting me vent for a minute.
