i can't believe the police shot an innocent woman like that........

Let’s talk about experiences. Every time there’s a situation like this we see the rioting and looting. I’ve read about the Watts riots, Chicago riots, etc... I was a young man when the riots over Rodney King broke out. The riots in Baltimore over Freddie Gray, the unrest in New York over Michael Gardiner, it happens over and over again. BUT it also happens whenever there’s a natural disaster, a Republican gets elected President, etc.... So spare me righteous indignation as the cause for looting businesses. Buy on serious note, one thing that I’ve never seen. I know that we whites are the horrible racists that are the sole reason for every discomfort suffered by Black America. But why have I never seen a mob of White people dragging a black person from their car and beating them? We see the images over and over. Reginald Denny. That truck driver on the bridge in Minneapolis. The man with his family and their horses in the trailer in Oklahoma. “Get her!! She white!!” in Baltimore. Can somebody please explain why you never see the horrible white racists attacking black citizens in the street, but you can find as many clips as you’d care to find of black mobs attacking white people. Buy yet black people aren’t safe in America because of white racism. Can somebody help me understand? Just find me a single video clip of a black person being drug from a vehicle by a white mob. Please. Anybody?

At SETXsports.com, we have been working hard on getting ready for the 2020 football season! As always, we will be starting our annual team previews on July 1st with the preview schedule to come on June 15th! We have also been solidifying our broadcast schedule with our usuals Silsbee, Newton, East Chamber and Lumberton. But our board owner Jordan Wilson has been busy lining up things. Early last week, he scored an agreement to broadcast Vidor Pirate football this season! And just today, Jordan reached an agreement with Beaumont ISD Athletic Director Ron Jackson to broadcast Beaumont ISD games this season! That will guarantee coverage of the two biggest local schools in our coverage area and a district that has been ignored for far too long. As always, Your Source for Sports in Southeast Texas will make sure you have the best in local sports right at your fingertips! Let this season begin!

The thought of Soros being brought to justice reminds of a bad guy in a movie having to live in a plane and never be able to land. I'm sure his ticket to the ISS has already been paid for.

Huge difference in protesting and acts of outright lawlessness the black community has been a part of. Nice way to get your point across, destroy your neighborhood and city, that’s smart. Now let me say this, the cops in Minnesota are lowlife murderers, imo.

I understand what you’re saying. But don’t you think that if the black community placed more value on black lives by killing less of each other then it would have an even greater impact than any other action? Is it the justice system or is it the black community that is doing the most harm to themselves? Should we all quit pointing a finger and begin looking in the mirror? Black lives DO matter. So how do we convince black individuals of that?

I think people committing the hate crimes don't have time to pull out their phone and live stream it. We have a well documented history of oppression that you could look at for proof. The other thing is that people are afraid to say what they really feel. In the the closet undercover racism. A smart criminal (oxymoron) isn't going to post a video of himself robbing a bank. Big brother will catch that for us. Which leads us to the media that will hammer down our throats exactly what they want us to believe. Free thinking isn't as common as common sense anymore. In a world where celebs, sports stars, and the rich and powerful are all major influencers. They lead the weak minded down a path to do their dirty work. All while keeping their hands clean and sanitized.

I think the cops showed marvelous restraint. How long would you let someone say “F” you in your face? The guy shook his butt at the dog. The dog reacted and the cop pulled him off. Yes, that was cool. I guess I should feel sorry for him if he sticks his hand in a cage full of rattlesnakes. There are those who would and they are dumb as a box of rocks.

I was just on my soapbox. Sorry, I should have spoken more clearly. My rant wasn't pointed directly at you. More so to the ones that can't see, or don't want to see the racism that they convey. I am man enough to admit that I have some preconceived opinions based on my experience. We all must breakdown these barriers and create unity. My apologies again.

The other defense attorneys never pursued the race angle. When Cochran came aboard, that was where he was at. That, and his cute little rhyme like”if it don’t fit, you have to acquit”. I’m sure I have forgotten some aspects of it, and never deemed myself an expert, but any evidence the prosecution had was immediately thrown out by Ito. You are right, the victims were never mentioned much. It was all about OJ beating the rap. Clark was a terrible prosecutor, intimidated by a well oiled defense team. Remember, with OJ, it was about what you could prove, not innocence or guilt. I think it’s called due process. We sure don’t have that in this case, now do we. Keep it up. People’s true colors show when they about-face and scream justice. This crime was captured on video. That is something that always bothered me in the OJ case. In that rich neighborhood, not one security camera caught the murders on video. Even if they did have video of the crime, Ito would have deemed it inadmissible. Cardinalbacker, I agree OJ had some money to afford great lawyers, but the “Trial of the Century” attracted attorneys who would charge less just to get their names in the news. Oh, I forgot, please supply the lists you say you have PamFam.

I’ll say this. I generally don’t get my motivation about life or make political decisions from the advice of a pro-athlete, a Hollywood actor or from a pop singer. But when I saw what Drew Brees said about not kneeling during the national anthem, man I was really proud of him. But now, what a cowardly punk. He lost respect from my point of view. What a little freakin be-otch.

I thought OJ being found “not guilty” was more a reflection of his wealth (or “privilege” as we call it today) and being able to afford a fantastic legal defense. Too bad he was broke by the time he got in trouble again. True story.... the first time I ever heard “the n-word” was when that poodle-headed DA was talking to the cop. I was like “n-word? I know the a-word, a couple of b-words, the c-word that women HATE.... but the n-word? I’m confused.” I remember being amused by them trying to act like it was a big deal. I mean, just say it... everybody says it. This was long before anybody cared about “er” and “a” pronunciations. That’s how I know we’ve made a lot of progress. Minds like mine have been changed for the better. That’s not a word that I’ll utter anymore.

I was just asking a question. I, like you, don’t know if it was racially motivated. I’m trying to sort out the details, so I can have a feeling about it one way or another. I respected the fact that you admitted that you’re not sure either. Then you began to attack me for being in the sticks too long. You don’t know me. I’ve not said anything about saying this was any less than murder. I’ve never said anything about race. Then you try to paint me as a backwoods hillbilly from the sticks. Both my parents were in the USMC. My dad for 30 years. We lived all over the place. In San Diego, my two best friends were Japanese and Samoan. At another station my two best friends were Black and White. My mom’s first husband and father of my older sister was Hispanic. So my sister is Hispanic. When I was 8, we had a “little brother” who was 3 months old, a black child. We lived in Tyrrell Park In Beaumont. It wasn’t real popular with either side of the races in the mid 70’s, but it never phased us one bit. So don’t tell me about seeing the forest for the trees. If we are going to use cliche’ phrases, then get your head out of your a $$. It’s people like you who admit you have no idea if it was racially motivated, but you’re willing to paint this as an injustice to black men only. You, my blind friend, are the racist! And if black men would quit killing other black men, then you would decrease homicide to black men by 90%!!! “According to 2014 FBI data, 90% of African-American homicides were committed by African Americans.” - USA Today So get off turning “whitey” into the reason black men are being killed. Look in the damn mirror!

Nope He signed with ETBU. 🤕

I love it.
