ESPN host Max Kellerman said during the sports network's morning program "First Take" that "extremist right-wing agitators" are the ones responsible for the violent riots that have taken place in American cities since the death of George Floyd.

Speaking to co-host Stephen A. Smith, Kellerman said that "93% of the protests are peaceful," though the origin of Kellerman's precise number is unknown. The remaining 7%, he said, were either people blocking traffic, innocents retaliating against police aggression, or radical conservatives posing as protesters.

"The vast, overwhelming majority are peaceful, and by the way, the seven percent that are not, they have a very broad definition of what's not ‘peaceful,' for example if you block traffic or something like that or if you respond to police provocation," Kellerman said. "And even then, a big percentage of that, that wasn't peaceful, is actually outside agitators, extremist right-wing agitators posing as protestors in order to make the protests look bad."

Kellerman's comments come just days after the U.S. Justice Department identified a handful of cities and municipalities that could lose federal funding due to their unwillingness to put an end to "anarchy, violence, and destruction in American cities."

Anyone left watching ESPN should be kicked out of the country after turning in their testicles.

ESPN should change their program name to MSNBC#2.

The Maoists learned well from Goebbels.

“That’s why the left keeps bailing them out of jail and the democrat mayors and and governors are protecting them.”

That’s the part I don’t get. How is it a DA that is elected to uphold the law; doesn’t yet is not held accountable due to breaking the law.

Sounds to me like arrest and disbarment should apply to these POS DA’s.

Remember when sports was a refuge from politics?

... and talkin' about the weather. Both now heavily politicized.

Fascinating. Butler appears to be a human mad dog. Just the person to invite in:

James Butler Jr. turned to Sam Kellerman when he needed help, and Kellerman gave it, opening up his Hollywood apartment when Butler, a disgraced former boxer, needed a place to stay while training for a comeback.

But on Monday, Butler admitted bludgeoning Kellerman to death in 2004 with a hammer, then setting a fire in the apartment. Prosecutors presented no motive for the slaying and declined to comment before Butler’s sentencing. Butler pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and arson, and is to be sentenced April 5 to 29 years and four months in state prison.
