Although I don't think he was saying murder the officer, the fact that he made a judgement call without watching the whole video and doxing a police officer is what concerns me. People will do what they will with the Information given. Trump didn't say storm the capital but he did incite. LeBron didn't say murder the officer but some of his followers will take it that way and by doxing the officer Lebron is inciting. Just my thoughts. People today are freakin lunatics, and this is coming from a guy he's Ted Bundy.

Trump literally told a very specific group of people to go to the capitol and fight after he had being stirring them up for months.

Lebron tweeted you're next to no one in particular right after a cop just stood trial for what he did to floyd.

There is a difference there.

While I generally agree with your statement I think my point that people are crazy and will read into what anyone famous is doing and when you dox the police officer you incite violence. The Trump analogy was a bit off I concede.

Ya so the thing I really disagree with you about is that lebron was calling for the cop to be murdered by saying you're next

The fact that you don't see a problem with what Lebron did is part of the larger problem. LeBron's obvious intent was to inflict this individual pain. Maybe not murder, but pain. He's STILL mad at the guy, mainly because he is white. If the girl had stabbed and killed the other girl, Lebron wouldn't have said a damn thing.

Compare it to Mitchell, who has been tweeting all day, is probably even MORE socially aware, and didn't make an *** of himself over this.

Doxxing people has real world consequences. Someday it might even be you. It was me once. I had people threatening my kids and had to have round the clock police protection for two weeks. Lebron knew what he was doing.
 
People posting about the trial should use the appropriate forum for those discussion and not the game thread. I want to read about the game and not about the trial.

Good idea. The best part of this game is that the Jazz/Rockets records are still perfectly inverse: 44-15 to 15-44. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.

You should make sure to not call the so called "pos" when you have an emergency.

This attitude needs to change and is indicative of what is wrong with law enforcement in America today. many of us have pointed this out. The police are supposed to serve taxpayers. Not taxpayers serve the police and hope they don’t get harassed, abused, or executed.

As an educator, I resent this attitude. I too am publicly employed but I can never forget who I’m supposed to serve. The common good of society should be maintained. Law enforcement have all too often forgotten this.

What a difference a few years make. I remember the rockets offense tearing us to shreds. The tables have turned.
