Warriors coach Steve Kerr: China doesn't ask about US 'human rights abuses'
The Hill ^ | 10/11/19 | Rachel Frazin

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr said Thursday that he is not asked about U.S. "human rights abuses" when traveling in China.

Kerr made the comment amid scrutiny over the National Basketball Association's handling of a general manager's support for pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong.

Asked if he'd been questioned about China's history on human rights during trips to the country, Kerr replied, "No, nor has our record of human rights abuses come up either."

"None of us are perfect and we all have different issues that we have to get to and saying that is my right as an American. Doesn't mean I that hate my country, it means I want to address things," Kerr said. "People in China didn't ask me about, you know, people owning AR-15s and mowing each other down in a mall. I wasn't asked that question."

"We can play this game all we want and go all over the map," he continued. "The world is a complex place and there's more gray than black and white."

Keep digging, Kerr. Keep digging. Until the hole is deep enough to reach your beloved China.

Another one to whom this applies:

“The world is a complex place and there’s more gray than black and white.”

In the NFL it is black and white.

Whitey bad and the source of all evil in the world.

Kerr was born and raised in Beirut and then Cairo. He has no clue what our Constitution and country are about.

This is a guy that tried to make a moral equivalency between a country that has the right to keep and bear arms with a country that runs over protesters with tanks and harvests organs from healthy people.

He's either bought and paid for, a complete idiot, or thinks the tanks will always be on his side. There are no other options.

‘he is not asked about U.S. “human rights abuses” when traveling in China.’

Because there are none, and furthermore, commies don’t care unless it helps them.

Unless one counts all the commies here and what THEY’ve wrought.

This is what our America-hating commie infiltration HERE has wrought.

Obfuscation of what is bad/good, never having any feeling of love and loyalty to one’s home (i.e., my family), etc.

IOw, libs (commies) have succeeding in erasing common sense, which would tell anyone that the US is 2nd to none in freedom and prosperity and “goodness”.
