Yep. I mean people are free to their opinions and I’m pretty sure Jordan is a democrat but it’s pretty stupid to insult people who don’t agree with you when your salary depends on said people buying tickets.
And I'm pretty sure his father was murdered by "those statistics," or am I mistaken? I think he's a guy fully aware of the failings of the "black community."
That's something that's easy to forget when dealing with those stats. It's a sad thing that people fight for and vote for their own death. Even if voting is a lost cause these days.
Jokes on them, haven't watched a single second of NBA game or bought any merch in over 2 years. I don't even look up scores or know who is in the playoffs. Same with NFL.
These people have no idea what "vigilantism" means. If they did, they're realize that the two scumbags who died met the definition a lot more than Rittenhouse.
I'm fairly certain "looking to commit vandalism/assault/etc" does not fall under the definition of vigilantism. Technically, it is near-accurate to put that label on Kyle. And I'm fine with that. Because law enforcement refuses to do their job, so someone else has to. As I said in the other post I made in this thread- that negative stigma will vanish soon, as we see more police departments stand down during imminent destruction of their communities.
Point. However, in the minds of the left, the people who attacked Rittenhouse were good, noble, peaceful protesters who were trying to put a stop to this evil white supremacist who was carrying a gun and provoking them. Or in other words, they were people who were taking the law into their own hands to put down a crook who absolutely deserved it. So even by their own logic, the animals Rittenhouse killed (and the one he wounded) would still be vigilantes.
On another note, calling Rittenhouse a vigilante is a very self-defeating argument for the left. By doing so, they are functionally admitting that everyone he shot and who attacked him was a criminal.
You made a great point, but I just want to point out that most of noisy leftists whining about this case don't actually think, and they're using "vigilantism" because everyone else is saying it. It's all feelings. There's nothing behind their arguments and nothing going on in their heads.
You know what, I didn't think about it "from their POV." Because you're right, if those guys were as the left likes to think of them, then yes, they would be the "vigilantes."
I think I'm going to start copying and pasting this message all over reddit:
"The US is not safe for black people. We need to start gofundme's and government programs to safely help black people flee to citizenship with safer countries in Africa".
"Vigilante" is going to lose its negative stigma in the coming days. Because more and more its becoming clear that many areas have law enforcement entities that:
Will refuse to police highly volatile situations that will SEVERELY damage communities
Will commit constantly worsening acts of corruption with absolutely no oversight unless it hurts the "wrong crowd."
Armed citizens are going to end up policing their own communities because NO ONE ELSE WILL FUCKING DO IT. If you stand down during a riot, you don't get to complain when someone else does the job with less restraint!
Why is everyone acting like vigilantism is a bad thing?
We live in a society where the police either have their hands tied behind their backs, or are actively out to get innocent civilians while protecting criminals.
Maybe they are going to address the inequity of NBA players being about 75 percent black, which obviously does not reflect the composition of the general population.
At least people were pushing back. Thank goodness I stopped caring about the NBA when Jordan retired.
Jordan never got political because as he acknowledged, Republicans also buy shoes.
That's back when the biggest money you could get was from shilling products to people instead of getting kickbacks from governments.

While blacks commit 50% of violent crimes, they are also the victims of 50% of the violent crimes, so that is a near certainty.

Yea, you couldn't pay me to watch the NBA now, and I love telling diversity obsessed people to call me when the NBA meets the quota.
There was a video about this quota that campus reform did.
Hey students what do you think about quotas for getting into college? "Yeah we love it equality is important!"
Hey students what do you think about quotas for the football team because most people on the team are the same race? "Well this is about talent!"
Hey students isn't this contradictory? "Uhhh I guess so."
I remember seeing that. I think one of them admitted that meritocracy is best. I honestly wish everything was decided the same way as sports.
I think the NBA is slightly worse/gayer.
Jokes on them, haven't watched a single second of NBA game or bought any merch in over 2 years. I don't even look up scores or know who is in the playoffs. Same with NFL.
Don't forget the Let's go Brandon shirt to own the libs!
Will never watch either one again.
Yea jokes on them as millions of normies still watch and buy merch from them. Jokes on us who think our opinions matter, more like
Government monopolies.
Someone has to provide the circuses and bread to keep the revolts from happening.
Same, but I've got a zero to throw in there.

Reality is a meaningless inconvenience to all these subversive scumbags.

They have been told they will rule as kangs "again" if they kill whitey for them.

I'm not really into capeshit but Batman is my favorite superhero for that very reason.
They're missing a few letters in their acronym. NAMBLA seems more accurate.
Oy vey, eat your bread and watch the circus, goyim.
This implies that theres something wrong with vigilantism when it comes to removing rioters and pedophiles from society.
They police have proven they are useless, why shouldnt citizens step up and do their jobs for them?
They deserve worse than lawsuits because the corrupt government is just going to bail them right out again afterwards.
They know they're lying. They're not stupid, they just hope you are (and for most people, they're right).
This is malicious, its planned and they know it. They are not innocent!
NBitchA
Fuck the NBA.
Why should I care what jews think? They've been seething so hard because the gentiles won.
Almost as many felons in the NBA as there are in the NFL. The entire league is full of traitors though.
I'm hoping Kyle can sue them. He was not a vigilante. This is defamation.
Why is everyone acting like vigilantism is a bad thing?

The NBA is a national pedophile association, eh? Sportsball sucks kids, you say?
Good Democrats.
Why does the NBA even have a social justice committee?
Maybe they are going to address the inequity of NBA players being about 75 percent black, which obviously does not reflect the composition of the general population.

That’s cool. I haven’t cared about the NBA since the Spurs won the strike shortened season in ‘99.
I find it odd that "basketball" has an opinion on things like this.
