San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who is a long-time critic of Donald Trump and an advocate for civil rights in the US, has given his thoughts on the civil unrest of the last few weeks.
Popovich, who has won five NBA titles with the Spurs, said he believes the “country is in trouble” as he discussed the death of George Floyd.
“In a strange, counterintuitive sort of way, the best teaching moment of this most-recent tragedy, I think, was the look on the officer’s face [during Floyd’s death],” Popovich said in a video published by the Spurs. “For white people to see how nonchalant, how casual, just how everyday going about his job, so much so that he could just put his left hand in his pocket, wriggle his knee around a little bit to teach this person some sort of a lesson – and that it was his right and his duty to do it, in his mind.

Throwing black treatment into a pot of all people diffuses it. It waters it down and suggests it is not a big thing. It shrugs it off. That shows a complete lack of understanding or a lack of caring about the true level of abuse that blacks go through. We know what you are saying.

Police are being shot and ran over across America, many wounded. Radical factions are searching for the homes of police to fire bomb them.
Poor Trumpet. Still desperately trying to be somewhat significant. Still failing.
Remember Dr King dreamed of being judged by the quality of ones character ?
He had to go so minorities could be deemed inferior and in need of forced advantage.
Now blacks want to matter.
Wouldnt it have been great if King had not been taken out and we stayed on his path ?
