USA is a joke

[Razard86]

Notice how we have a sports show pointing out the hypocrisy of America when it comes to outrage about Guns and public optics/image. What's even funnier is this entire video...won't spark any change.

I follow the NBA quite extensively, if you looked at my blood under a microscope you'd see hoops and basketballs....

I'm of the opinion the NBA should come down on Ja with the biggest hammer possible. Suspend him without pay for an entire season. They need to make an example of him and ring him out like a dirty dish cloth in front of the world.

There are too many vulnerable black youths in America (and not just black) who are victims and easily impressionable to a toxic culture. They look up to these guys as role models and heroes. Ja seems to have no awareness of the influence he has as a rich, black, popular basketball player.

We don't need people in his position waving Glocks around on social media. It perpetuates a destructive cycle of violence, poverty, etc.

He doesn't look cool doing it either, even if it is "legal". The only people who think it's cool are ? who are stuck in a ? life, and will never accomplish anything meaningful or contribute anything to their communities.

The entire gun obsession and culture is like a massive collective mental impairment and hallucination.

Let's imagine a world where everyone just loved torches and had to have torches with them all the time. It's my right to have a torch! I am a responsible torch owner! Blah blah blah all the usual.

Eventually we start seeing more and more fires everywhere, and it's getting pretty hot. There are just so many damn torches and so many damn people.

Maybe we should do something? Let's put the fires out! Alright makes sense that's a start. Maybe we should make things more fire proof! That's also kinda reasonable. Maybe less torches would be a good idea too...

NOOOO REEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe you just can't handle the heat? Why do you hate my torch?! When is the last time a torch burned something on it's own?! Torches don't start fires! People start fires! We could have a million torches and if people are careful we won't have any fires.....

Sigh.....
