Ohio State Football Recruit Wears T-Shirt: ‘I Hope I Don’t Get Killed for Being Black Today’
Breitbart ^ | 6-22-2017 | Dylan Gwinn

Posted on 06/23/2017 5:59:10 AM PDT by brucedickinson

Tyreke Smith, a player attending Ohio State’s football camp, made quite the impression when he showed up on the Buckeye’s campus. However, it wasn’t for anything he did on the football field. Instead, it was for what he wore.

Smith reported to camp wearing a T-shirt that said, “I hope I don’t get killed for being black today.”

Smith explained his decision to wear the shirt to ElevenWarriors, a site which covers Ohio State football. Smith said, “I decided to wear the shirt because I wanted to bring attention to the epidemic of blacks being killed at an alarming rate. What we would like to do is have people talk about these issues to reduce the murder rate of African-Americans.”

I wonder how he’d feel about a T-shirt that says “I Hope I Don’t Get Raped for Being a White Woman Today”?

Well “whitey police” don’t make it easy to fight for them when they are idiots like that one guy who was found not guilty this week. Good grief that was the easiest murder case in history and the jury still found the cop not guilty. Yikes.

Stay out of inner city Chicago, Baltimore, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Memphis, Atlanta, St. Louis and Los Angeles and he stands a good chance of not being killed.

Kapernic in training. If he is a potential NFL player he may have cost himself millions. Let’s

No point in talking about race in this country if we can’t have an honest conversation about culture, crime stats by demographic, and illegitimacy rates.

That’s right. Fans too.
As long as college and pro coaches allow this stuff, I’ll watch BBC bonnet movies instead and earn points with the missus.

“If Tyreke gets killed, statistically there’s probably about a 94% chance it’ll be by a Democrat voter or supporter. 90% are by blacks, who are monolithically Democrats, and about half of the non-blacks are Democrats (the nation is sadly about evenly split).”

More precise calculation duly noted and agreed with. Thanks.

...I wanted to bring attention to the epidemic of blacks being killed at an alarming rate.

Over 1,400 more black Americans murdered other blacks in two years than were lynched from 1882 to 1968. According to FBI data, 4,906 black people murdered other blacks in 2010 and 2011. That is 1,460 more black Americans killed by other blacks in two years than were lynched from 1882 to 1968, according to the Tuskegee Institute.- Breitbart

Dated, but pertinent.

Why is he doing this? It cannot end good for him.
Be interesting to see where he is in 5 years.

Blacks killed by police - even in the circumstances you describe - are very small in number compared to the number killed by other blacks.

I hope I don't get killed for being black today

breaking the law and refusing to cooperate then threatening the police

getting into a fight at a house party

being involved in a driveby

getting into a fight over drug money
