The NHL has gone full “Black Lives Matter” and they’re 99% white.I’m boycotting them too. Clueless...and depraved...come in all colors in the US of A.

Well then, Pilgrim. Ya wanna race for pink slips?
If that makes me a racist, I’m guilty.
I race cars, trucks, motorcycles and fast women, or slow women. Neither me or Laz are very particular.

I’m sure you are going to walk the walk and leave FR now that you see the post was removed. Otherwise you’ve sort of capitulated to a snowflake which sort of makes you a bigger snowflake.

Can you imagine if after every criminal shooting by a black (not that we know enough right now, per usual, that a particular police shooting is criminal), we said we were going to have to boycott some particular service to the black community until “they” learned better?

Pro tip:
when you start brawling with police officers to continue resisting arrest, you may get shot

I am 70 and have never seen a professional basketball game. Did I miss anything?

The 3-Point shot ruined basketball, anyway.

Those of us who objected to that comment can take care of ourselves just fine. What we can't do is remove overtly racist comments by other posters that make the forum look bad.

Considering that a moderator deleted the post in question, it appears that you're the one who hasn't yet learned the standards.

No - I think that the complaints of “systemic racism” are b.s.. Although I think if you press them enough, the real “system” they believe is racist is capitalism itself.

“Are we not human beings?”

Uhh.. per the videos and screeds posted daily, NO.

Civilized is an unknown word to some. Primal instincts haunt the mob like stink in a swamp.

I don't know what's more embarrassing, these musicians and actors talking about politics in interviews or the media actually giving them credibility about it
