Lebron James Speaks on Tamir Rice...

  • Thread starter Thread starter New Editor
  • Start date Start date
LeBron is trying to win a ring in Cleveland and become the hero. Meanwhile, there are problems occurring in his hometown that he now has the power to fix. This would be the opportune moment for him to organize black people.

There is no way that he isn't aware of this situation, its Cleveland, how many top-priority news pieces are they running?

But he's all about his image. I'll stick with Melo, may not have a ring, but he's in the streets. Ryker's island, Ferguson, gun violence presentations. Trying to make a change in New York.

Here are mines everyone was back slapping Lebron for throwing on a Hoody and a T-shirt.. and praising him as a leader in social justice in the sports arena.. . Wrongfully... because he never fully articulated like SOME other athletes have. Basically hes is saying ..."thats messed up" .. Its shame tbh especially coming from that area being in that area. He should have never been touted as something he isn't.. its inexcusable for something like this that had national international attention to happen in your backyard yet you have nothing substantive to say..

If you throw on that Hoody to make a statement.. make....a STATEMENT

I wrote about that situation in a paper. I applauded LeBron for making a statement. I get the paper back from the professor (old white guy) and he wrote a comment saying this is just LeBron being LeBron, meaning he's trying get attention.

I tbought to myself, dude just hatin, but reading the bolded just made think twice about my original opinion of the Miami Heat Hoodie pic.

This shit happened in the city he plays for..he has a son close to the age Tamir Rice was...you telling me you're not fully aware of the circumstances surrounding the shooting...Really King?

Smh......great talent, but he's just a glory hog

the thing was, the LEBRON Hoody thing was ALL DWAYNE WADE"S IDEA.

DWAYNE was the one who threw a hoody ON and took PHOTOS with his OWN SONS, and put it up on his OWN TWITTER ACCOUNT, and SPOKE ABOUT THE ISSUE ON HIS OWN .

The team saw it, and a week later had the TEAM PHOTO.

the media made it a LEBRON thing...because he was the face of the NBA. while in reality he was JUST in a TEAM PHOTO.

Lebron just went along with it, cause it was easy light weight credit. But Guess what? LEbron did enough as an ATHLETE..

WE need to pressure lawmakers and politicians . not entertainers. blk ppl put more pressure on LEBRON JAMES THAN BARAK OBAMA.

Show me a sound bite of Tom Brady, Justin Beiber, or Taylor swift discussing social issues in the wht community?

wht ppl aren't stupid. when shit get thick, they seek the ppl who can actually handle, and discuss the issues FOR REAL SOLUTIONS. they don't go to entertainers...

I guess when the community you are a part of is a joke. It make sense to look for court jesters for SOLUTIONS.

At the bolded : there's no such thing as "the white community"

I agree with the post for the most part tho. When there's a fire we don't call gardeners...even if its the best gardeners.

yes the fuck there is.

there's no such thing as a blk community. but the wht community is alive thriving and global...it's a system call white supremacy.

 
Didn't niggas crown him the new Tommie smith a few months back?

How he doesn't know about a case in his own backyard?

His statement was 2 paragraphs of “thats unfortunate"

u want a basketball player to organize a community???

again, i'll use this opportunity to highlight how pathetic the so-called blk community really is.

The same ppl who fix they're face up to state that Barak was "not the president of blk ppl, but america". Are the same ppl, who want lebron james be a leader..
 
Him sitting out NBA games is stupid though.

Cavaliers playoff position has nothing to do with a corrupted prosecutor.

Mitt Romney ain't apart of the same community as barefoot mike from hidden valley mobile homes in kentucky..

through an elaborate multi-generational mind fuck barefoot mike has been tricked into believing that him and mitt romney are on the same team..but no they're not.

They're on the same team, white supremacy.

barefoot Mike from Kentucky, sleeps like a king at night because, he voted against his own interest just to maintain white supremacy...

he'll sleep through the night peacefully, and happy because, he knows in this country he has more power, and privileged than the riches of niggas.

Never said lebron owed anyone.

But he's not meteor man in a jersey like you niggas want him to be...he spoke out in relatively safe issues everyone had an opinion on.

Most black people in the 60s that spoke out wasn't in the nation...stop that shit. The corrupted ass nation ain't needed to be outspoken.

First i dont look to athletes for anything..

There are alot of connecting fibers to..

- He is a son of Cleveland/Akron He has kids Tamirs age

- He actually said something before and said he doesnt allow his kids to have toy guns. So he was aware..

- Hes given back to kids in major and public ways.. kids very much the same age bracket as Tamir Rice who are recipients of his generosity... who too live in the same world Tamir was taken from

- He waded into social justice by throwing on that tshirt and hoody... As a megastar.. dont make bold statements without saying something.. If you cant say it yourself have your people say something

The problem with making 1 statement sometimes is people then expect you to make a statement every time something happens...and it seems like that's what happening to LeBron here along with the other factors you mentioned....

he has the perception of power but he doesn't actually have it..the mitt romneys don't want him at the table either

he has nothing going for him but he's been convinced that his white skin is all he needs..he clings to it for a sense of identity while the people at the top who pull the strings use him as cannon fodder for their agenda..he not part of their community he just THINKS he is..and him thinking that keeps the country turning.

first off, loud mouth niggas are always vocals, it's action they always lacked.

2nd, we're talking about Athletes, not "most blk ppl".

As an athlete, ALI was the most outspoken, during his time, and he SPOKE out CONSISTENTLY...and he was a member of AN ORGANIZATION.

I Like how u ignored the "WHAT Organization?" question in my post. As in, any ORGANIZATION, not jut the NOI.

Most of those ATHLETES and Actors, from the past who spoke out, had blk organizations that they were a part of , helped and backed.

WHAT's out now?

u want a LEBRON JAMES to go against a SYSTEM ON HIS OWN? Dude is not versed in that field... nor does he has anyone to back him.

Alot of u niggas fail to understand that, this is, and always was a community issue, and it will take a collective effort, not just throw one nigga to the wolves, and hope the photo op goes well. cause ,this was a cry for a publicity stunt on behalf of symbolism ,and not actual solutions.
