Trump should have let them go to Prison first, then got them out. Magnanimity is important, but better served when the offenders feel the heat!

“Don’t tell me nothing.”

Well educated, I see...

Mr. Ball, be glad Donald Trump is President and not me, your kid would have done the whole ten years and I would not have lifted one finger to help.

LaVar is an idiot. His son is a bust with the Lakers.

The mighty, mighty Lakers. How far they have fallen since Kobe and Shaq.

“Should have let them rot over there.”

There are dramatic race differences in crime rates. Asians have the lowest rates, followed by whites, and then Hispanics. Blacks have notably high crime rates. This pattern holds true for virtually all crime categories and for virtually all age groups.

In 2013, a black was six times more likely than a non­black to commit murder, and 12 times more likely to murder someone of another race than to be murdered by someone of another race.

Interracial crime

In 2013, of the approximately 660,000 crimes of interracial violence that involved blacks and whites, blacks were the perpetrators 85 percent of the time. This meant a black person was 27 times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa. A Hispanic was eight times more likely to attack a white person than vice versa.

Urban centers

In 2014 in New York City, a black was 31 times more likely than a white to be arrested for murder, and a Hispanic was 12.4 times more likely. For the crime of “shooting”—defined as firing a bullet that hits someone—a black was 98.4 times more likely than a white to be arrested, and a Hispanic was 23.6 times more likely.
If New York City were all white, the murder rate would drop by 91 percent, the robbery rate by 81 percent, and the shootings rate by 97 percent.
In an all­-white Chicago, murder would decline 90 percent, rape by 81 percent, and robbery by 90 percent.

Police shootings

In 2015, a black person was 2.45 times more likely than a white person to be shot and killed by the police. A Hispanic person was 1.21 times more likely. These figures are well within what would be expected given race differences in crime rates and likelihood to resist arrest.
In 2015, police killings of blacks accounted for approximately 4 percent of homicides of blacks. Police killings of unarmed blacks accounted for approximately 0.6 percent of homicides of blacks. The overwhelming majority of black homicide victims (93 percent from 1980 to 2008) were killed by blacks.

“12 times more likely to murder someone of another race”

Could that be because there are 12 times more whites than blacks?

The other two players , who must still have a few functions brain cells, were pretty profuse in the thanks to President Trump for springing them from a Chinese jail

On the other hand, they are still on suspension

Good chance this Ball moron never gets off suspension

“I’m from L.A. I’ve seen a lot worse things happen than a guy taking some glasses.”

They didn’t “take some glasses.”

They stole the glasses from the owner.

Therefore, they’re not ‘takers’...

They’re what? That’s right, they’re THIEVES.
