Cops shot in Louisiana

MJ has been notably apolitical for his entire career and retirement, to the consternation of many social activist groups. It is unusual for him to come out like this and, as a someone who grew up in Chicago and a lifetime Bulls fan, it is impressive to see him come out on this issue and also to make statements and contributions in balance.

And of course he's being derided by BLM and other SJWs.

"While Jordan was praised in many quarters, a leader with the Chicago chapter of Black Lives Matter described Jordan's comments about fostering trust between cops and civilians as "clueless."

"Unfortunately, these celebrities are rich but they are clueless to the realities on the ground," said Kofi Ademola of Black Lives Matter. "They aren't deconstructing or examining the systems of oppression.

"In short, it's a false narrative that trust needs to be fostered with the police. Policing is inherently violent and as an institution it needs to be abolished along with the 'Prison Industrial Complex,' " Ademola said."

Yet he and 99.99% of the African American Population are still afraid to even mention the REAL problem as Mach noted in another thread:

Sadly, a former Southern Miss Basketball Player was gunned down in broad daylight yesterday on Jordan's former city streets of Chicago...yet that will just be another of the recent thousands of murders of mostly black victims in Chicago...but no one famous...and no group like BLM is speaking for them.

#why?
