I used to be a Cleveland Cavaliers fan. He is the reason that came to an end.
The deification of this piece of garbage in Northeastern Ohio is vomit inducing.
The local lefties LOVE to tell the tale of how he 'built a school' for disadvantaged youths in Akron. In reality, he donated what amounts to chump change in his bank account for the good publicity which has left the already cash strapped city of Akron holding the bag on ALL the other expenses which are significant.
LeBum wrong again. He should stick to basketball instead of police shootings. Grand jury declines to charge officer in the Columbus shooting. If you remember this is the shooting where one girl tried to stab the other girl. Great job by the police. That cop saved the other girl's life. Typical of LeBum and other celebrities sticking their foot in their mouths without knowing the facts!!

Most black people don’t kill and savage each other.
Most black people don’t riot in the streets.
And I am going to go out on a limb here and speculate most black people don't witness violent crime.
There is no question that when it comes to gangs , people tend to remain silent to protect family members who affiliate with gangs or out of fear of retaliation, no different than what used to occur during the peak of organized crime family activity.
What has changed is that unlike the mafia and legacy gangs where there was central leadership, gangs today, of every stripe, are splintered into thousands, often down to the block.
There is no “ godfather” calling the shots.
Agreed. I don't doubt there is a high homicide rate in the Black population. I even have a thread about it. However, most Black people aren't killing each other. The segment of the Black population responsible for the carnage is the underclass portion, those living in the ghettos. I've brought this up alot.
Personally, I've witnessed crime. I've been the victim of crime a few times. Stolen bicycles, I've been robbed. Someone shot me with a paintball gun.
When it comes to street gangs, there is no real loyalty and there is indeed hardly any shot callers. This is why there is so much violence among the gangs. There is no one to answer to.

No one has said most black people are killing each other so why bring it up except to mislead? The segment responsible for the carnage are children raised in a single parent environment.

That's what happens much more so when there are not 2 parents to offer guidance. 85% of the males in prison grew up without a father.
