I call BS on this article and the football player should be shunned from playing!!! don’t like it here LEAVE and take your muslim friends with you!!!
“it literally celebrates the murder of African-Americans”- NO it doesn’t. None of those criminals were “murdered”. Every one of the shootings was justifiable homicide. Police don’t go out on a killing spree, targeting blacks. Quite the opposite, whites are shot by police at a rate twice that of blacks. But lets not let facts get in the way of “Black LIES Matter”.
This player is a mullato abandoned at birth by his black father, adopted by rich white parents, making $19 million this year- and he has the nerve to cry about the oppression of blacks?
