    HRYK...also the fact he and the others are even talking about it is why I haven’t turned a NBA game on TV for at least a year...

    IIRC, one of the board regulars admitted last month that he had not heard about Taylor's boyfriend instigating the gunfire. I'm guessing it will be news for a lot of folks watching Barkley as well.

    He actually shot a policeman with his initial gunfire. The sad part is that bigger crook lived.

    I’m enjoying seeing white kids on Twitter saying the War on Drugs caused this death. Umm, Walker the drug dealer didn’t sleep with a gun by his side to protect himself from cops, idiots.

    Ah sir Charles... I "met" him in Vegas at the Caesar's palace years ago. I didn't know he was there. Was playing blackjack and there was a guy next to me talking about how Charles was going to run for the governor or Alabama. Well I yelled in shock, now way would Charles ever win, I was shocked he was running... well then I look up and who is starring me down... but sir Charles himself. Yup he was at a table across the way. He gave me the biggest go to hell, I'm going to beat you look and I quietly left that casino(not about to deal with his security lol. Next week he dropped out of the race. I will never know if I had any influence or not, but I am proud of it lol

    I knew a girl in college that ate Barkley’s asshole while in Vegas with a bunch of her friends. That’s all I really got.

    That may be even better than the girl at my HS who wrote “I fucked Rikki Rocket” all over her Trapper Keeper after an aging Poison came through on a tour. OK, hon.

    The common narrative that has been pushed is that cops wrongfully entered her apartment and killed her. It’s been pushed by tons of celebrities too.

    Pushed by the President of Stanford

    Breonna was a peaceful human shield.

    I really can't fault him too much for shooting as the door came off the hinges. If he really didn't hear them say they were the police and only heard someone loudly pounding on the door at 1:00am in the morning what would you have done in that situation? The whole thing was one giant cluster fuck. I don't fault the cops for returning fire once fired upon but I can't really fault him for shooting at someone who he believed was breaking into the apartment.

    I can't believe a guy with no criminal record and a legal firearm is just going to open up on the cops. I have to believe he didn't know that it was the police at his door.

    They announced and knocked even though they had a no knock warrant. I'll bet 5 bucks the cops recorded it but it hasn't been released.
