The selective outrage of LeBron James

Was LeBron able to enjoy the Lakers win over the Nuggets on August 10, a day after 5 year old Cannon Hinnant was killed execution style by his neighbor in North Carolina?

Was he able to enjoy his 4th of July weekend considering that 6 children were shot and killed nation-wide? Did he express any outrage at the shooting death of the 8-year-old black girl Secoriea Turner in Atlanta that weekend?

LeBron has said or tweeted nothing about Zykier Young, the 1 year old black boy killed by a stray bullet in his bed Monday Night in Pittsburgh. There are no protests, no riots, no tweets to LeBron’s 40 million followers about Zykier’s tragedy. It is as if Zykier’s life didn’t matter.

These types of killings happen much more often in this country than the killings that LeBron and other professional athletes are protesting about.
