[QUOTE=Norcaliblunt;14778654]Mordant is just expressing his second amendment right.
Gun control is racist.
Real NRA peeps need to have JA’s back.[/QUOTE]
He can own a million guns if he wants.
But the NBA has an image and a reputation to uphold. 17 pages worth in this thread and it really just boils down to this.

This America, we have the second amendment. Ja Morant should be a “right to bear arms” hero. Put on a pedestal. Morant is freedom personified.
White boy gun slingers like Doc Holiday and Wyatt Earp get to twirl their guns around and be recognized as legends.
The swinging your gun around bravado is some Wild West white boy shit. Facts.
Elvis, Ted Nugget, Charleston Heston, etc etc.
White boys not sticking up for black gun toters is the problem. Whites and blacks need to unite under the second amendment.

[QUOTE=The Hick;14778634]What does Lucy have to do with this? She wasn't human or even in the homo genus. You might as well say we all come from Asia since that's where all primates evolved from. And who mentioned anything about the Piltdown Man?[/QUOTE]
Piltdown Man was referenced because there have been several instances of scientist falsifying the fossil record because they did not want to acknowledge Africa as the cradle of civilization.
I meant Mitochondrial Eve not Lucy. Eve is the homo sapien African woman who everyone on earth are decendants of.

Even if that were true what does it matter? If anything that's a negative... that means 'black people's' are slightly less evolved if thats the origin. We all descend from ape-like creatures, are we supposed to hold those creatures in high regard?
I honestly think this is extreme over compensation for him actually being gay

Being handy with a pistol was a legitimate survival necessity if you were gonna carve out a living in the wild west in [I]1880[/I].
For multimillionaire suburban athletes in 2023… little bit different.
Personally I dont care what Ja does, he doesnt live in my neighborhood so his lifestyle isnt any concern of mine.
But it’s not a great comparison.
[QUOTE=FultzNationRISE;14776959]Ja reminds me of Rodman. Depressed and acting out due to frustration. Wants to tell the world who he REALLY is behind closet doors, but the backlash would be too much, so hes substituting that message with antics and edginess to try and get peoples attention hoping someone will reach out.
Manic depressive people are in a constant, desperate state of needing attention and reassurance. Highwhey for instance. The more nobody cares about him, the more he tries to provoke them to pay attention, which only compounds how little anyone wants anything to do with him.
Ja will probably post himself with a bazooka next time once the attention from this controversy fades.[/QUOTE]
Oh you think he’s gay too?

Doc Holiday had a prestigious degree in dentistry. He was almost a doctor. :lol
He liked gambling and shooting and gangbanging though apparently. Those guys lived really interesting lives.

Yeah thats skill and sophistication. Putting a pistol to your dome while bumping violent ghetto rap music is just embarrassing. Those dudes in the wild west weren't pretending.

Negative, You really don't understand or even comprehend what it means. Skin color is a mutation caused by the enviroment it has nothing to do with mental ability or how evolved you are as a human. There is plenty of evidence that indicates there were several advanced civilizations that existed much earlier than western science wants to acknowlege or reveal. That's why you don't know about the Moors, the Africans who CIVILIZED Europe, when Europeans were living like savages.

Black boys doing it are little bois, like Ja here. He isn’t doing shit with that gun. And the black boys that do are indiscriminately shooting up their neighborhoods on the daily, with their cowardly drive byes and inaccurate aim holding the gun sideways :roll: :roll: :roll:

You are a fake as bitch that can suck my dick.
Would any of you have a problem with a white athlete dancng around with a shotgun listening to a country song? Having fun?
With Kid Rock even, blasting bud lights with an ar15.

most likely not. problem is white america is uncomfortable with black culture, not just hood culture...but black culture.

And what is Black culture, Mr. Mexican??
You wanna be a Black man or something? You're the Mexican Al Sharpton of the board.

It's a disingenuous question because the majority of gang members and thugs in this country are Black and Hispanic. So when the Crips are calling out Ja and Ja is flashing Crip signs on the court, then it's definitely different than some White boy flashing a gun listening to country music. There isn't a gang connection or thug imagery behind it.
I mean, let's start speaking in realities. What are some prominent White gangs in this country that are on par with the Bloods, the Crips, MS-13, La Eme, etc?? There aren't any.
So yes, when a superstar like Ja displays that kind of imagery, it should be condemned and it should be punished because that kind of culture should not be celebrated.

take a breather big guy. we're just having a discussion, no need for personal attacks.
Why are you racists still discussing race?
-this is a thread about a young nba player portraying an image his employer deemed harmful to its image. Therefore he has been suspended from work.
I’m a teacher, if I did the same thing as Ja, it would be a problem, I’d be suspended. Even though it’s not against the law in my state to open carry.
No need to be racist, especially coming from people who complain about racism, it’s ironic.

So you are a teacher? Are you teaching your students that when they become business owners they should fire future employees if they are proud of their 2nd amendment right?

You’re obviously r3 because no one else is this dumb. Everyone else with a job in the real world understands you can be fired for hurting the companies image or breaking certain specific rules to said company.
It has nothing to do with race and all to do with stupidity.

Ew
Do you eat glue for lunch or breakfast? Or do you sniff it for both?
Has nothing to do with advocating for 2A rights and everything to do with unprofessionalism and pissing on the hand that feeds you.
Just because it's legal doesn't mean the folks writing your paycheck have to support it.
[QUOTE=ZionDunks;14782925]He’s another thug.

He's not a thug though. This dude isn't about it.
He's trying to portray an image that just doesn't fit the bill which makes it all the more sad. Because those that actually live that existence would give their left arm to sniff a day in the life of Ja Morant... Straight identity complex.
As a gun owner, one who at least thinks of himself as a responsible one, I wouldn't have had an issue with this if it weren't for what I've heard his past behavior is like
3 things that make this concerning to me
1. Pacers laser incident
2. The incident with the minor
3. He throws up gang signs like its fun and games. (So I hear)
If Ja was white acting like that I'd say the same thing. I've been under a rock for quite some time, and haven't really looked into these incidents so if it's not what I think it is please fill me in.
How do you factor in those things? Whether you think he should be in trouble or not
I would not want to be Adam Silver right now, this is a tough balancing act that hes bound to get wrong in someone's eyes.
