On the fourth anniversary of his death, Muhammad Ali’s only biological son says that his father would be against Black Lives Matter, calling the movement “racist” and the protesters “devils.”

The legendary boxer and activist stood up against racism throughout his life, but Muhammad Ali Jr. says his dad would have been sickened by how the protests have turned to violence and looting after the death of George Floyd.

I have quoted Ali when he called Joe Frazwier “a gorilla.” Now this. I would imagine Ali statues — if any exist — will be removed now and if not defaced by Antifa/BLM/liberals/democrats.

Say what you want about Ali, he always stood up for his beliefs, and never compromised on them for *anyone*.

God bless MAJ.

It is so hard to speak out like that given the inevitable backlash (or blacklash), but so important.

I was born in Louavul and never saw him as anybody other than Cassius. That said, I remember when he went to Africa and came back and said how thankful he was his ancestors were brought here as slaves.

Nuff said. If they don't like it, please, please, please. Somehow, let's ship them all back.

Ali came to my town when I was a child and I waved at him in a parking lot. He had a beautiful smile.

Ali had no ‘beliefs.

He was a puppet of Elijah Muhsmmed’s Nation of Islam.

His manager was Herbert Muhammed, son of Elijah Muhammed.

“These [Democrat politicians] saying Black Lives Matter, who the hell are you to say that? You’re not even black.

“Democrats don’t give a s–t about anybody. Hillary Clinton doesn’t give a s–t; she’s trying not to get locked up.

“Trump is much better than Clinton and Obama. … The only one to do what he said he would do is Donald Trump.”

Wow! Trump should fly this guy around, get him up on stage!!!

Baffles me why any black would support BLM when it has absolutely nothing to do with black lives and is financed by a white Hungarian who doesn’t give one rats ass about blacks as well. BLM is a terror organization that exists solely to destroy the USA and one way to do that is to introduce anarchy by step 1 getting rid of the police.

Re: search still works

I did a title search for Ali’s before posting and nothing came up. Just tried it again. Still nothing.

Maybe the search cannot handle the apostrophe.

Because the post only comes up in search under Ali, but not Ali’s.

Anyway, sorry for the double post.

Trump should retweet some posts or videos from this guy.

Traveling around would put his remarks at the whim of the Democrat newsroom editors.

But on twitter, “there it is”.

Then again people can watch Trump’s full remarks on Charlottesville where he denounces white supremacists and neonazis and still claim that was who he was referring to as “good people”. They totally dismiss his remarks about people wanting to preserve statues and he even warns that it won’t stop with civil war monuments, that the same violent leftists would come tearing down statues of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and now they have in 2020.
