LeBron James’s tweet on Glenn Consor: An eagerness to judge and a reluctance to think https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/01/07/glenn-consor-lebron-james-tweet/ Best part.. “What he said, no matter if he thought that that was his dad or not, was so insensitive and the words that he used — we know the words that he used, I don’t even want to repeat it — it’s not even something that should be ever said,” James said, according to ESPN. James is the same person who on Dec. 15 referred to Los Angeles Lakers teammate Austin Reaves as “AR-15” after he hit the game-winning shot against Dallas. But that never made national headlines because no one with 50 million followers tweeted fake outrage over the assault rifle nickname.
Dude tries so hard to be a role model, but is clueless, lately, on how to actually be a good one. Meanwhile, all his fans/followers will just eat it all up.
An AR-15 is not an assault rifle. Assault Rifles have full auto capability. I know newspaper writers are paid to write at a 5th grade reading level, but it’s a massive pet peeve of mine to see ignorance (or deception) repeated over and over.
