So when you’re arguably the greatest football player who ever lived, you get to pretty much say what you want and people will at least listen. Which is awesome because the great former player in question, James Brown, happened to say some really great things on the radio. Appearing on FS1, with Jason Whitlock, Brown discussed the Tamir Rice situation and the general problem of violence in the black community. Brown held nothing back and highlighted the black community itself as the main source of the problem.

“I could talk for 10 hours on police brutality through the years historically against African-American people, but then there are other people that have had problems with the police. The problem that I’m looking at, Jason, is young, black men terrorizing their own community. My thought of all of this, how it should be cleared up is to have the community take pride in itself, clean it up, be the cleanest community in the world. Fathers do the right things with their kids and their wives, and I think we’ll see a tremendous change.”

FATHERLESS young black men, a gift of LBJ and Uncle Sam's Plantation.

I know, it's true algernon, but it's so much easier to switch the subject over to talk about guns.
