Oh please!!!!!! A white collar criminal usually only takes money, blue collar criminals assault and murder people. What's more important your money or your life? You really can't see the difference?

This is about police violence. If anybody thinks seven bullets in the back is appropriate for walking away from a police person then frankly they are part of the problem.

(1) A black person in America is more than 60 times more likely to be killed by a black person than a white person! (FBI Crime Report, Homicide Statistics, Table 6).

(2) BLM Cares not a whit about that fact, ONLY the few blacks that are killed by white police officers. Go to their own web site and READ IT!

(3) Every day, in America THOUSANDS of people have to decide how to respond to a police stop. (EVERY RACE) 99.9% of these people understand YOU DO NOT FIGHT PHYSICALLY. If you think you have been wrongfully stopped or harassed, there are countless legal remedies and attorneys that will represent you (pro-bono) in a heartbeat. Look at EVERY case in America that is costing billions of dollars in rioting damages. EVERY CASE INVOLVES A BLACK MAN THAT HAS HAS CHOSEN to physically resist a police officer! When you can cite even ONE EXCEPTION I will change my opinion.

4. Police in this country rightfully fear for their lives, daily! Police ambushes and outright unprovoked murders FAR OUTNUMBER all the blacks killed by police officers! If you have a modicum of common sense you DO NOT PHYSICALLY CHALLENGE someone that fears for their life!

(5) The racist BLM movement is CREATING more racists, in America, than any organization has done before.

My friend, if you think that any police office will go through an entire career without being face to face with someone twice his size, then your are sadly mistaken. During my 28 years in law enforcement I've dealt with many that fit that description, and yes, I've had to tiussle with some of them to affect the arrest, but not one time did I need to lean on their neck until they stopped breathing, nor did I have to shoot anyone in the back.

Now regarding your claim that whites criminals are killed in greater numbers than black criminals, I'm sure that you have researched that, so I won't argue the point, except to say, that white population in the U.S. is around 61%, compared to 13% of black. It only goes to figure that white criminals are killed in greater numbers, wouldn't you think?

In profits with ownership These thugs as you call them are mostly family men who invest much time and money in there communities. The laughable idea calling for a boycott of Nike while complaining of a boycott of a game is interesting , yes let’s all deprive people of jobs because you don’t like the idea of men expressing there outrage at injustices But once again in the real world public opinion is on there side and not on the side of people blind or don’t care about the changes that are coming and all for the better . Yes some of the street chaos is troubling, but this will pass and good things will take there place . I also know that when some use the word thug in there thread I know what you really mean and it makes me sad . Oh and just broke the Nike boycott, just received yesterday my new Nike vapor max sneakers $230 and 2 pair of yoga pants at 81 the best sneaker I ever had , try them you’ll like them lol

Thanks for putting this out there. Pretty pathetic how many uninformed (and what appears to be racist) people there are. Professional sports franchises and athletes do so much for their communities, aside from the hundreds of millions they contribute. Do some research before making these racial comments. Start with Magic Johnson, Serena Williams, Drew Brees, JJ Watt, Tiger Woods, Russell Wilson, Roger Federer and hundreds more.......and see what they are doing. Just because this doesn't make headlines doesn't mean these generous contributors don't exist. If you still feel this way after doing some research, simply turn off the tv. If your perspective has changed, I challenge you to repost what you've learned.

Excellent point and many black athletes do more than their share. Marcus Stroman work's with and outfits little league teams in need of gear and unis. Mookie Betts helps feed the homeless. LeBron James built a damned school in Akron for under privileged youth. Mo Vaughn who is retired helps kids get an education and built affordable low cost apartments. Lawrence Guy of the Patriots recently donated a week's worth of food to 1300 families with children who would have gone hungry.

These "hood rats" and "thugs" put their money where their mouth is.

What do some of you do?

The racist comments in here about "hood rats" just show your true colors. I'm sad you're my neighbors. Just so I know who you are in public would you please where either a "if it's white it's right" tee shirt/hat or your hood and robe.

For you torch carriers beware today is "Jackie Robinson Day" in baseball. You may want to look away there will be lots of colored folk.
