Nothing to explain, I can only confirm your reasoning.
Common got bit by a bug worse than the flu. Liberalitis.
As comedian Katt Willams said..the flu is so bad it can make you throw up and have to schitt at the same time, so how bad must this new-aged liberalization be?

Slavery is too far removed to use it as a crux. Old school black nationalists (1960s) brought it up for the purpose of separation. Today it is a narrative.

End result my brothers and sisters looking past rich blacks (entertainers, athletes) faults & abilities to help their own . I wanna be in the NBA, NFL make millions, do little for my community, then raise hell when words from whites today are supposed to be the equivalent of actions of whites from generations ago.
Nothing to explain, just lament on how liberals, minorities and extremists on both sides force real men like us to choose a side.

Yeah I was thinking, Common is 47 years old he was born 18 years after Brown v. Board of Education, 4 years after the 1968 Civil Rights Act, 7 years after the President's Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity...so I'm not saying there's not other issues facing communities other than my own, but the giant specter of Slavery and Jim Crow shouldn't be looming over any part of today's population.

I agree American Liberalism/Progressivism is a mental disorder, it's a cult of victim worship and in giving higher status to victims (real or perceived) a mindset is created where people are eager to become victims so they can rightfully and justifiably respond to these horrible things that have happened to them. Then of course there's the "soft bigotry of low expectations" where certain groups of people are basically viewed as less than human, they're treated as they are incapable of normal human actions and it robs them of dignity and it teaches them to have an external locus of control (meaning they are only acted upon, their actions never influence their own standing in the world) which can lead to something called 'learned helplessness' where you just get used to life beating the absolute shit out of you and you stay down....it's horrible, but it's what the Progressives/Liberals want.

Once someone sees themselves as having been wrongly acted upon (no matter their race, religion, gender, or lot in life) then whatever their response (be it in word or action) is in their mind justified and THAT is going to lead to a lot more violence in my opinion simply because they'll see it as a justifiable response. All those people in the learned helplessness pile would be an army at the ready of any politician who told them they could have it better if not for the _____ and then next thing you know _____ would be gone/destroyed/attacked/ruined.

BTW, pick up some Tennessee Earnest Ford & drop that Slim Whitman!

Classic


Weeeew Golden State has been hexed...Kevin Durant ruptures his Achilles and the very next game Klay Thompson does his ACL....that has to sting. Got to love it for Leonard though from the Spurs to Toronto and immediately makes it happen for them through a very difficult run the 76ers and Celtics and then GSW?!?! Respect for that, I don't follow basketball much but that's impressive as far as I can tell.

What is the fucking deal with NBA Executives? First you've got the GSW minority shareholder (I guess since Owner is now a verboten word) and now this...

Police pursuing complaint against Raptors president Masai Ujiri for battery of an officer

What the fuck is happening? It's a bunch of nonsense!



If I'm the Owner or President or an Executive for a team I'm up in the fucking skybox with some food and booze and the like. And if I'm feeling in a good mood, I'm buying concessions for large groups of people or pulling a few strings to get kids to meet the players or whatever....but I'm not fucking courtside because I can be courtside at practice every day....how much sport need one man take in? I get that in this most recent case, the gentleman just wanted to celebrate with his team, but come on you're President of the Raptors and you don't have credentials on hand or have a friend with credentials or know closer to the end of the game that you might need those in order to get on the court?


The deputy was just trying to do his job. If he lets some well dressed assassin or other dangerous person on the court then what would we think of the guy for being lenient? It's a thankless job sometimes more than others. I totally understand why there was an altercation...I don't know how it could have been solved other than Mr. Ujiri has his credentials or someone on the court (Coach or Player) vouches for him and then you've got plausible deniability as a deputy, but even that would make you uneasy...those are premier athletes and if anyone was to jump out there and hurt them and it was your own personal fault that would suck.
