Chuck D died? Damn. Someone should tell him. If he knows he’s dead, he’ll definitely cancel his next tour.

What influence does LeBron James have over a prosecutor and a grand jury? Your response makes no sense.

What’s the difference between a “grown ass man” with a gun and a kid with a gun? They’ll both kill you. lol I’m not fully blaming the kid, and I didn’t say anything that you put in quotes there but that’s cute. You sure like creating false narratives huh? Creative writing is fun, another thing we agree on. What I DID…

Do you not see him stand and approach the car as it arises? Did you watch the video? I’m saying this is a tragedy but I would have never acted that way on either part, kid or cop. I had a air soft gun when I was a kid his age (6th grade) and was TERRIFIED that it would be mistaken for a real gun. My dad made sure I…

I can’t get over someone reasonably intelligent thinking that LeBron can actually enact change, when an entire school of children being massacred failed to matter at all.

I did watch it. If you call pulling a gun from your waistband when police approach you “relaxing”, then I don’t know what to tell you. This is a tragedy but there was bad judgement all around.

James is not in any way morally obligated to risk his career participating in a protest that has nothing to do with him. It’s important to remember that even when protesting is the “right thing”, that doesn’t mean that NOT protesting is the “wrong thing”.

I’m pretty sure they couldn’t use the song without his permission, but okay.

Even when I was a small child writing letters to athletes, I knew that they didn’t have all that much time to respond. King is turning a very real, complex, and dangerous issue into an opportunity to hang out with his sports hero.

People who love LeBron and people who hate LeBron seem to have one thing in common: they expect him to be all things, to all people, all the time.

I love how you leave out major points of the story. The cops thought it was a real gun because people called the police and said a boy is playing with a gun and threatening people. The story is tragic enough, you dont need to leave out information for sympathy. Most people know the cops did not act appropriately.

“Shit, I thought the police were justified, but since LeBron is sitting out a late December game, I guess maybe shooting that 12 year old WAS unjustified” is something I’m sure the prosecutor would have thought. Missed opportunity, LeBron.

The worst part of this for the players was probably having to follow a grown man named chip

You don't go cancelling Taco Tuesday without repercussions.

It shouldn’t come as any shock that when evaluating epic fantasy, people might use the creator of the entire modern version of the genre as a yardstick. Look, the fact of the matter is that Tolkien was able to create a rich, detailed, varied world with multiple settings, cultures, races, plot lines, and subplots in…

If you’re taking into account all media (not just books) I’d say Breaking Bad. It had it’s small amount of detractors, but overall everyone was pretty happy as it really couldn’t have ended any other way.

Pretty sure he spent all the time set aside for writing in 2015 writing about the Hugo Awards on his livejournal.

I smell white trash...

Because the police erased security camera footage of the execution from a nearby Burger King, and lied about nearly every aspect of the encounter?

Because it took them 13 months to even bring charges, largely because the department was trying to bury the case, including trying to get this video sealed away from public view.
