saying "i understand how you feel" to a Lions fan is like a white person saying "i understand how you feel" to a black person about racism

[AlwayzRight]

True

 

[NFLParlazy]

That's a comparison in really poor taste. African Americans are being killed.

Lions fans have a choice of what team to root for and they are lucky that they have a team.

I hear ya. I didn't mean to give you a hard time. I would probably laugh if Chris Rock or Katt Williams said it.

that would be African Americans

seriously, black on black murders is far far far more significant than all other murders combined

now that doesn't make it right, but it speaks to the fact that racism is not the reason people are dying

90%...which isnt much different than white on white or latino on latino killings.

cops have killed over 1000 people this year...over 200 completely unarmed.

simply statistics...not trying to prove any point here. cops have a tough job. most are good people. some are not...no different than the rest of the US.


anyway this is a gambling/sports board, not politics. let us move on please

 

[FearTheRaven]

Here we go.....but in reality if it's a Browns fan saying "I understand how you feel" it makes it legit.

What exactly are you attempting to say with this? White on white murder% is roughly the same as black on black

 

[Bad_Cat]

We just had 14 people murdered in So. Cal. Focus on the real enemy and act like you have a little intelligence.
