LOL! I really want it to be something more serious than jealousy and bad blood during their playing days.. Pierce is second only to Skip Bayless for their hatred of Lebron.

Jay - I would really like for you to dig into why Paul Pierce has such a bug up his butt about Lebron. I know there was tension during their playing days and the Ray Allen fiasco, but this is beyond that; especially, since Pierce hasn’t been in the NBA in years. His hate for Lebron is not a good look on a allegedly…

Two recent indictments; one of a District Attorney, the other of cops, hopefully is a positive trend toward cleaning up the judicial system. The two indictments are:

“The department’s “Operation Safe Street and Rodeo Drive Task Force,” run by Police Captain Scott Dowling, has arrested 106 people, with 105 of those being African American and one Latino, according to recent department stats.

Kevin is just not growing as an entertainer for me. He is doing the “same” role in different contexts. Learn from other comedians that evolved such as Tom Hanks and Jamie Foxx. I think Kevin has the talent to take on more challenging, mature roles. Does he have the courage?

Sage? Now we know where you are coming from. Go back there. Now. Don’t complain. Don’t comment. Just go.

Here’s hoping the Lakers stay healthy. I want to watch Lebron mow down the Warriors, Suns, Clippers, Jazz and beat the Sixers for the Championship. After that, watch the haters (like skip) find something to criticize. GOAT James.

The people who rely on the Root for its take on world events do not consider the opinions “fallen journalism”. In fact, the opinions expressed in many cases mirror our own. The Root never advertised itself as being the go to, objective source. Its motto is the “The Blacker the Content the Sweeter the Truth”, a play on…

You know beetlejuice. No one is forcing you to read the “fallen journalism”. There are other sites you can visit. 

The police have the right to “effect the arrest” as you say. We, as a society, also have the right to expect police officers (especially a 26-year veteran) to be trained well enough to tell the difference between a taser and a gun. A taser weighs half as much as a gun and is brightly colored.

Ronna is from Austin Tx. The Texas Rangers is the closest baseball team. They sold out their home opener yesterday. So much for her boycott. 

Oregon Population by Race & Groups:

No one seems to be arguing on this site (but you) that Middle Easterns (specifically this guy who was Syrian born - being a Muslim is a religious choice; not a race) isn’t white. In your “fucking socially constructed system of race”, he is not white. So I guess we are debating legal vs socially constructed. Legally,…

I never said it was racist. I just stated that according to American Law, middle easterners are considered white. For some reason, YOU seem to have a problem accepting that. Not me. You. Everything else you seem to be suggesting are what ifs, generalizations, assumptions and opinions held by you and maybe some others.…

I don’t know what the “perception” of so-called regular people are. And since you didn’t take a poll, neither do you. I just know that middle Easterns are considered white. Deal with it.

Technically, according to American law - Arabs are considered white.

It was in 7th grade geography class when “white laws” became a thing to me. My teacher “explained” what a continent was (A continent is commonly defined as a large land mass separated from other land masses by oceans.) Yet while looking at the map, it became painfully obvious Europe shouldn’t be a continent (Africa is…
