BLM and the NBA

Posted on by That Old Guy

This week I watched as several NBA teams boycotted their games. The story is that these players are protesting the recent shooting of Jacob Blake – that pillar of his community, the model citizen, the guy who had a complaint in May of 2020 charging him with Criminal Trespass, Domestic Abuse, Third Degree Sexual Assault, and disorderly conduct. You know the Jacob Blake on whom the police were called because he was in a home where he was not supposed to be, by police order, on the night of his shooting.

Nope, like our ANTIFA, rioters, looters, and Black Lives Matter folks the NBA believes we should hang now and investigate later. They all believe that you are guilty until proven innocent and you should be hung first. That is racial justice and opportunity in their minds.

We all know the NBA. These are the guys that kneel during the National Anthem while standing for the Chinese Communist Party. They turn their backs on fallen American Servicemembers and veterans while saluting the CCP. Man, one NBA person says something in support of the people of Hong Kong and the CCP threatens to end NBA games and souvenir and apparel shopping in China and the NBA backpedals faster than a rabbit can run. Is the money that important?

So now I see team photos with whole NBA teams decked out in Black Lives Matter shirts. I can only assume that the NBA now stands with their Black Lives Matter brethren for and in support of:

  1. Dribbling for Communism/Marxism/Socialism while cashing those huge checks and making big bucks hocking apparel and souvenirs in a capitalist way.
  2. Passing on nuclear family and religion. BLM believes these must be destroyed.
  3. And shooting for the CCP to keep those Chinese contracts while advocating for the destruction of the USA in accordance with the agendas voiced by the rioters, ANTIFA, BLM, and looters.

Look, I am NOT supporting the police in these shootings. I am NOT supporting any group. And I am NOT trying to disparage Mr. Blake. I believe in the rule of law and I support investigating and when warranted bringing people to justice. In our system you are assumed innocent until proven guilty. I just hate hypocrisy. And these grown men playing a little boy’s game are full of it.

And this goes for all professional sports.

I’m an old guy and I don’t get it
