“You always got some sh*t to say.. wtf are you doing, besides coonin?” retired NBA star Matt Barnes tweeted.

Tweet:
I’m going for a jog in a couple of hours, as a POC it doesn’t seem so simple anymore, I want to start the hashtag #runforahmaud because I’ve been that black kid running in a neighborhood where my family was one of two black families on the street. […]

Tweet:
Disgusting. And desperate. So thirsty for engagement that you’re using a cold blooded murder to get off a trash ass Bron vs MJ take. I would ask how do you look in the mirror and like the person that you’ve become but I’ sure you never liked the person you ever were. […]

Tweet:
You. Sir. Are an idiot. You wait to critique Lebrons response to point out he’s just brand building. While you without a doubt are using Lebron to brand build. It’s your only play for clout. And on this topic. You’ve sold your soul. Sad […]

Tweet:
He sold his Black soul a long time ago, so he can’t recognize true Black angst, disappointment, hurt, pain, anguish. Ruckusing is his job. […]

James’ outrage was commented on by Jason Whitlock of FS1, who called the tweet, “twitter trolling.”

“This isn’t helpful. It’s twitter trolling,” Whitock wrote in response to James. “It’s using this man’s tragedy to build a brand as more outspoken than Michael Jordan. There are all kinds of ways to draw attention to this tragedy. Suggesting that we are hunted everyday/every time is just shit-stirring.” – barrettsportsmedia.com, May 7, 2020

An unarmed black man/doing his daily jogging in his neighborhood in Georgia is gun down and killed by two white gun toting men (one of whom is an investigator assigned to the local prosecutor), who claimed that they ‘suspected’ him to be a thief. This happened in Feb. Local police declined to make an arrest.

It was not until the video of this incident was posted on line that the state’s police apparatus claims that they are ‘looking into the matter’. And, people wondered why Black football players were peacefully protesting injustices in the Criminal Justice system. […]

Georgia officials are trying to bring up mental & shop-lifting questions, there are none. An unarmed Black man was accosted & killed by two White armed men. If Georgia & America has stepped away from the civil-war these two need to be arrested, investigated & face a jury. […]
