Death, taxes, and LeBron James talking politics. It seems that has become the new list of guaranteed things in life in today's day and age.
Since the inception of the Trump presidency, we have often heard the NBA superstar share his political opinion.
It usually goes something like 'I disagree with this Trump policy. I don't like him. He's a racist.'
There is no logic to what the Los Angeles Lakers' forward says, but that's on him.
Mr. James seems perfectly content with using the logically-flawed argument of 'white guys who disagree with me are racist.'
But no, Mr. James, most people of a different skin color who disagree with you politically are not racists. They're merely fellow Americans who disagree with you politically.
I disagree with your political views, but it has nothing to do with your skin color. Take a white person with the same political views as LeBron James and I'll disagree with him/her just the same.
Have you noticed that the lefties who scream 'racist' at everything tend to be quite hypocritical?
For example, Mr. James, on his HBO show "The Shop," just admitted that he had no desire to be around white people when he was in high school.
James says he went to St. Vincent-St. Mary Catholic School in Akron, Ohio to play basketball, not to interact with the white students.
The NBA star says he lumped all white people together as bad people...people who didn't want to see African Americans succeed.
But I bet most of those white students didn't wish ill-will on James or any African-Americans because of their race.
For a guy who baselessly goes calling President Trump a racist, even though Trump is not, it seems that LeBron James is quite the racist.
Make no mistake about it, the basketball player that plays the holier-than-thou card on a regular basis is nothing more than a pathetic racist that happens to be great at a sport.
Man, watching that Whitlock link is painful. Dude is paddling upstream on this one. There’s a reason Whitlock is hated by the black community.
But but but....Farrakhan says black people can’t be racists.
I hear tell this genius is an awful good ball dribbler too!
Serving Bill Clinton coffee?
As Lebron might say with his impeccable logic, “If it wasn’t for the game of basketball, I wouldn’t be playing basketball here today”.
more than you will ever care to know.
I can understand his approach to white people. I am white and taught business classes and coached football at an all black inner city school for a few years. I won over all of my students and athletes by just being me - honest and genuine. One my students wrote a note to me as another teachers assignment - I was shocked to know that I was such an influence on their lives. The students trusted me so much that they flat out told me that they we always told not to trust white people. And that I was the first white person that they really came into contact with in their lives and they discovered that white people were not what they were told that they were. I am glad that I was able to have an effect on their lives and that they saw the learning opportunity that was place before them that would end up helping them for the rest of their lives.
Time? Or construction?
Doing?
Probably working at a car wash.
