Is he tired of the knock out game, too?
“Tired of worrying about my 17-year-old being gunned down by some random white guy who thinks his music is too loud. Tired of knowing the same could happen to me.”
Sorry Bub, but that’s the way it is if I’m trying to have a relaxing night. Keep your music down, and there won’t be a problem.
Don’t let Obama see this person....he will be hired immediately.
Senior writer for ESPN. Figures.
Well if he is tried of hearing he should just remind himself in the scheme of things the numbers are low for the type of white on black shootings or white police shooting poor black men. On the other hand if this upsets him he should try to avoid the Chicago statistics of black on black shootings he would really be pissed.
I am sick of all the black pundits coming out of the wood work stirring the pot.
“How many unarmed people have to die”
The answer, my FRiend,
Is blowin’ in the wind.
The answer is blowin’ in the wind.
i’m not being funny, I kept looking for semi news tag.
I am tired of whiny black racialist lecturing me about how hard life is. F him.
He’s guilty of being marginally correct and devastatingly wrong, all in the same paragraph. While it’s criminal that some kid got shot for being a thug and nothing more, it’s even more insane to ignore the obvious. The real enemy of young black men is other young black men. Until that changes, empathy will be hard to come by. Is he just as sick of the hundreds of young black kids being slaughtered in Chicago...I must have missed the headline.
I guess he’s not tired enough to write a poem for the hundreds of unarmed Black children gunned down in Chicago - by other Blacks.
Tired of hearing about black people shooting other people. Tired of hearing blacks complain about whites. Tired of hearing about blacks looting stores. Tired of reading stupid articles by black ESPN reporters.
The single largest group of violent crime vitims in the US are blacks. And the single largest group of violent crime perps are blacks. This fellow ought to quit worrying about white killing blacks and look to and fear his own. Even jessie Jackson is smart enough to fear other blacks after dark on a dark street.
The body count doesn’t bother them-what the left gets excited about is the color of the finger on the trigger.
“Tired of worrying about my 17-year-old being gunned down by some random white guy who thinks his music is too loud.”
He should be worried more about his son getting shot by some random gang banger.
why isn’t he tired that 93% of black killings are committed by other blacks? they’re murdering each other at a rate 14 times more than all other races combined.
but he’s tired. i am too. i am tired of the oh poor me i’m black the world’s’against me crap. i am tired of the black community failing to see they are hurting themselves far, far more than any other group could hope’to. through abortion and through black on black violence. jesse jackaon is more afraid of bumping into a black on the stairs in a building than a white person.
I am tired of blacks playing the race card, the victim card, and the whitey framed me/he’s a good boy card.
I’m tired of black racists.
Sorry Bub, but that’s the way it is if I’m trying to have a relaxing night. Keep your music down, and there won’t be a problem.
He is talking about the guy who shot a kid in the van at a convenience store. the shooter didn’t like the music was louder then desired while the dead man’s friend went in to the store for a slurpy. The gunman was coming back from a wedding and didn’t think the music should be so loud in the parking spot. Do you really think that was appropriate to kill someone of music???? Really??????
