Is anybody else all in on Golden State after this bullshite?
Lebron is an idiot
tldr version: Lebron James compares the vandalism of the gate to his $21 million mansion (which may very well have been perpetrated by black miscreants) to 14-year old Emmett Till being lynched in '55 for whistling at white women. Yeah, those are exactly the same. Numbnuts.

quote:
“I think back to Emmett Till’s mom, actually. That’s one of the first things I thought of,” he said. “The reason she had an open casket was that she wanted to show the world what her son went through as far as a hate crime, and being black in America. No matter how much money you have, no matter how famous you are, no matter how many people admire you, being black in America is tough. We’ve got a long way to go, for us as a society and for us as African Americans, until we feel equal in America.”
I'm not thinking he's comparing himself to Till. I don't have an issue with it. He's right, racism is still there and always will be and he's not wrong in saying being black in a majority Hispanic and white country isn't without unique challenges.
