It took him and his entire Public Relations Team two weeks to think up that excuse. LOL

Wrong conversation
Station? What conversation was he trying to fuel?

Does he have any real education? He seems illogical.

going on to thank Vox writer Fabiola Cineas “for educating us about Ma’Khia and her story and why this needs to be about her.”

Pathetic. Ma'Khia was attempting to stab another person and was shot by a cop who deserves praise and commendation for preventing a violent crime. Lebron James singled out and targeted the cop, and now he wants to change the narrative to "this needs to be about the stabby girl, who loved unicorns and helping people when she wasn't trying to stab them".

It’s the default position of the Left when they can’t win the narrative or the debate. Having a “conversation” simply means conservatives should apologize and then the conversation immediately moves to money or gov’t laws that favor the Left.

James, you are politely invited to go have intimate relations with yourself and expire.

Give him a break. He did have to run it by Beijing as well.

It wasn’t a wrong conversation, he tried to fuel racist mob violence against a police officer. He should lose his endorsements and be fired.

Why do unicorns have horns? To stab you with it.

The wrong conversation? Hey LeFraud, why would you think any of us would give a hoot about some girl in Ohio and her life in the first place?

The wrong conversation you sparked was putting an Internet bounty on a cop for just doing his job.
