This it the climate we live in.
Many, many people share Brian's sentiments. Yet such is the fear in our climate at being called the "R" word, that people and groups are compelled to immediately criticize and distance themselves from such statements.
There is no freedom of speech in our country, even speech that is not based on any racist or hateful thoughts but simply pointing out facts.

A pair of Instagram posts — one posted by Brian Urlacher, the other merely “Liked” — on the shooting of Jacob Blake caused the Chicago Bears to distance themselves from their Hall of Famer on Thursday.
In one post, Urlacher posted a plain statement to his Instagram story unfavorably comparing the NBA walkouts in protest against Blake’s shooting to a performance from his old rival Brett Favre after the death of his father.
