    the thin blue line gang sign is a subculture of forearm tat thug police. It's the ex-jock ex-marine 40 pounds overweight but still wearing a skin tight under armor shirt on your days off douche bag. I think Harden is more of a why can't we all just get along type of personality and will stop wearing the mask. I hope he doesn't get shafted for it.

    it's not blue lives matter. It Thin Blue Line.

    It's an us vs them attitude of policing. Not a "our lives also matter" statement.

    Take this political **** to the D&D!


    Homeboy ☝ over here acting like he knows 80% of Hardens thought process. Glad you will still be rooting for the rockets! After all that’s what this forum is about!

    I actually don't know as it is an assumption which should be self-evident.

    He probably just thought the mask looked cool and bought it without realizing the connotation, not everything HAS to be a statement.

    Biggest non story of the year. Yikes. Desean Jackson, d wade, Stephen Jackson all get a free pass though right? Harden probably thought the mask was cool looking. And even if he didn’t? Who cares. Cancel culture is cancer.

    You can't really separate the two anymore. Thine blue line existed long before blue lives matter, but the blue lives matter movement adopted the thin blue line as their personal logo. It's part of the brand now.

    I hope Harden doesn’t say a word. He loses either way. Tired of social media adding nothing of value to this world.

    Harden can choose whatever he wants, tomorrow he'd could be wearing "I can't breathe" As long as he isn't a dummy like D Wade and Desean.

    At least he is wearing a mask though.

    Maybe Tillman gave it to him? A teammate trolling? Maybe he just likes the skull and black American flag. He is American.

    It’s hilarious that this is a story.

    He wore a cool looking mask... there is no way in hell he knew what is symbolized.

    Not really feeling like having Harden in top of everything else in the world, being politicized unless he chooses to by his choice.
