Mother Of Tamir Rice: ‘It’s Quite Sad’ LeBron Hasn’t Addressed Son's Death

[The_Jackal]

He is an athlete not a politician.

 

[Shizlansky]

She went a little too far

 

[numbaz...80's baby]

Those shirts and shit doesn't do anything though. They're still killing niggaz.

 

[babelipsss]

I'm missing something. Why is LeBron at fault?

I'm missing something. Why is LeBron at fault?

Exactly. They forcing his hand to get involved in the shit like if he woulda spoke out the outcome woulda been different.

I honestly was about to stop and see if it was a Onion joint

'Nigga wear a tee shirt or somethin'

I dont judge people who have lost family, but she was misguided here. MAYBE if the story lacked a spotlight and before it went to court

But the case has a spotlight, thats all athletes do. And it is helpful to increase awareness when they do it, but awareness aint the problem no more. A t shirt is pointless at this point, sadly

I don't understand why he needs to speak on this. It's the right thing to do not to comment on an issue you're not informed on.

I feel kinda bad tripping off this but the fuck she expect....White supremacy bullet proof Tees?

Slogans, catch phrases, hashtags, and tweets don't stop no bullets or intervene the judicial process on your behalf. Shits only good for a minute and you forget about them.

Crab/bucket.

 

[mrrealone]

Never understand why ppl keep looking to Lebron for anything.....

RIP to her son...

 

[twizza 77]

They asked him about it a year ago tho, now LeBron knows nothing. seems like he scared to speak on it.

 

[Billy_Poncho]

He's not obligated to do anything but him saying he's unaware like it didn't happen in his city seemed disingenuous.

 

[700]

Lebron bounces a fuckin basketball

 

[Billy_Poncho]

Now I am disappointed in Ja Rules lack of take on the matter

 

[7figz]

She went a little too far

How ?

Seems light to me. She just seems to wish he acknowledges her son's death, not requiring it from him.

I understand he's not a politician but I can see how underserved people can feel their only hope is another person of color in a powerful position imagining they might have some influence to make something happen, especially when our politicians never really serve us.

 

[VulcanRaven]

People are hypocrites though.If this said "Kobe" there would be tons of agreement.I see all sides but most only disagree because it is LeBron even if she was right.

Yall are some clueless negros
