LeBron James faces sharp criticism for his reaction to the Jacob Blake shooting, with a speaker accusing him of acting as an "evil big brother" who frightens Black communities. The host counters by highlighting police dangers and exposing Blake's outstanding felony warrants for rape and sexual assault of a minor, noting he fled with his children despite commands. The segment argues that accountability requires following arrest protocols rather than resistance, suggesting responsible citizen behavior could eventually replace police with social workers, before ending with a promotion for officialharshtwins.com using the code "Chinese virus."

LeBron Scaring Black Folks00:08:31
You let's start the show.
LeBron James, King James, aka Queen James.
I know you think you're helping black people, but you're not.
You need to shut up.
You're making shit worse.
People look up to you.
You have a lot of power and influence.
Millions of fans, man.
Black folks look up to you.
So when you say something, they listen.
And you out here scaring them.
You sound like that evil big brother that some kids have that teases them and scares them about everything.
Yeah, the boogeyman going to get you.
Boogie man gonna get you.
Policeman gonna get you.
That's what you sound like.
That evil big brother that's making fun and teasing his little brother.
All right, today we, uh, LeBron, I guess after the most recent game, he had something to say about that, that shooting up in Kenosha.
I still don't get it.
You're trying to win the NBA title.
That's what I'm thinking you're trying to do.
And you're trying to save black people at the same time?
I mean, how are you going to do that?
You especially can't do it when a lot of people can't help themselves.
Yeah, you can't help somebody if they don't want to do good, if they don't want to help themselves.
Yeah.
And that's what I see when I, what happened to this young man up in Kenosha?
Yeah.
This dude can't even help himself.
Yeah, I'm like, man, LeBron, you won three NBA titles.
How did that happen?
Because it seems like you got no brains.
You can't win NBA titles just on physicality alone.
You got to have some brains.
Just a little.
And I know you got a little brains.
But damn, the way you talk, man, about these events that's happening in our country right now, you shouldn't be discussing them.
I mean, they're out of your ballpark.
You're not helping anybody.
That's out of your league.
But anyway, this is what LeBron had to say.
If you're sitting here telling me that there was no way to sedue that gentleman or detain him or to just before the firing of guns, there was multiple, if you watch the video, there was multiple moments where if they wanted to, they could have tackled him.
They could have grabbed him.
You know, they could have done that.
I know people get tired of hearing me say it, but we are scared as black people in America.
Black men, black women, black kids.
We are terrified.
You don't know.
You have no idea how that cop that day left the house.
You don't know if he walked on the good side of the bed.
You don't know if he walked up on the wrong side of the bed.
You don't know if he had an argument at home with a significant other.
You know, if one of his kids said something crazy to him and he left the house steaming, maybe he just left the house saying that today is going to be the end for one of these black people.
Man, LeBron, you crazy as hell.
Black people are scared.
He said black people are scared.
That's what he said.
He said black people are scared.
Hey, guess what, LeBron?
Cops are scared too, you know.
Yeah, they're not robots.
They're people.
They have a dangerous job.
That's why they have a gun on their hip and a bulletproof vest.
It's because by the hundreds, they die every year on the job.
More than black and white people combined, but you don't see anybody protesting for them.
Yeah.
Nothing.
You don't see the NBA with Blue Lives Matter on the court.
No, they got Black Lives Matter claiming that black people being hunted down like animals, which is all a lie.
You're not helping anybody.
You're not helping anybody victimizing black folks the way you are.
And then he rationalizes as a black person.
I'm black.
I ain't scared.
I see a cop.
I'm happy as hell.
Yeah.
They're doing cops around here.
Yeah, they're doing their job.
I feel so safe.
Right?
Look how they're looking over here at me.
He making sure I'm on up and up.
These people are on the job.
Yeah, but then you rationalize like scaring black people.
Like you scaring them about what cops, how that mindset.
Did this cop wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?
Is he going to take it out on some black kid somewhere?
LeBron, that's irrational and it's stupid.
I can say that for anybody.
I can say that for black folks.
It's like me getting up and say, man.
I wonder how these black folks are going to get out of bed today.
Man, I'm scared.
I mean, don't make no sense.
We're not saying there's not bad cops out there.
They're bad cops, but you're making an argument based on a hypothetical.
That's not very smart.
It's not smart at all.
It's actually, I wouldn't call it ignorant.
I would say it's just dumb.
Yeah, some people would even say it's low IQ.
But I know you don't have low IQ, LeBron.
You won three NBA titles.
Somebody's got to be making you say this stuff.
Yeah.
You, okay, he also goes on to say the cops, it shouldn't even got this far.
They should have took him to the ground and arrested him.
LeBron, they tried all that.
There's other camera angles available now.
They tried to take him to the ground and the dudes, strong dudes, shook them off like flies and just walked away.
Yeah, LeBron, arresting somebody, that's not an easy task.
You act like you've done it before.
I mean, easy for you to say you dribble a basketball.
You're six foot nine, 280 pounds.
You shouldn't have a problem arresting anybody.
You know what's crazy?
We used to arrest shoplifters for a living.
Right.
And that's one of the toughest things to do, regardless of how big that gentleman or female is.
They could be six feet or three feet tall.
It is difficult still to handcuff them.
I mean, it's real difficult.
It's like sometimes you got to loosen some ribs up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I mean, one of the toughest persons to arrest is a skinny white female wearing Gucci.
They are the toughest ones.
I remember her.
She like kicking dudes in the night.
LeBron.
No, man.
I would like to see you as a police officer.
You act like you've done this job before.
I can see LeBron James and this thing.
Get on the ground.
I got you.
I'm handcuffed.
Wait, me, come back.
Come back here.
Where are you going?
I'm being nice.
Come back.
You going to the car?
All right.
What you getting?
A lollipop?
Oh, proof of insurance.
Okay.
All right.
You got it?
See, LeBron, look.
Trying to be nice.
Got him shot.
He's dead.
He's never going to see his family again.
You act like these cops are psychics.
They know exactly who they're dealing with.
They don't know who they're dealing with.
Hey, I mean, you sitting back, you making all these excuses for these people with these, with criminal records of violence.
Yeah, felonies.
If this guy's not being nice, why should the cops be nice?
The cops didn't go up to this dude and say, look, there's a black guy.
Let's take him to jail because he's black.
This dude had outstanding warrants.
I mean, felonies.
One of them was for rape, sexual assault of a minor, right?
He also had priors for involving guns.
So they know who they're dealing with.
This is a dangerous individual.
And you want them to play nice.
Tackle them.
In what world does that work?
This dude is taking advantage of every situation.
They wasn't being nice when he took him down to the ground.
They should have loosened them damn ribs up.
They didn't loosen his ribs up.
He got up, he walks off.
Now he's going to the car.
Okay, let's be nice.
Hey, man, come on, man.
Come back here.
I mean, come on.
That life is at risk now.
This dude is, this dude is not following commands.
So why is he going to the car?
Is he just jumping the car to take off?
Or is he going to the car?
Think about it, LeBron.
This guy is a violent individual.
He's proven that his past is proving that he jumps in the car, takes off with his kids.
Is his kid safe now?
Yeah, and you refer to this guy as a gentleman.
And now you see everybody in the media holding this guy up, holding his kids.
That man didn't give a shit about his kids when he jumped in that car.
Personally, if I wouldn't get into an altercation with cops, I got my five, six kids in the car, and I try to jump in the car with them.
What kind of father am I to do something like that?
Put my kids' life in danger.
Everybody knows a cop got his gun out, cops will shoot you.
If that life is at risk or they feel that life is at risk, they will shoot you.
Everyone Must Hold Accountable00:01:21
Everybody knows that.
His girlfriend is screaming at him.
Everybody's screaming at this.
His mama is screaming at him.
Everybody's screaming at this dude just to stop and follow the commands.
Unless somehow you refer to him as a gentleman and they should have done something to prevent it from getting this far.
How about this?
You want to help black people?
You want to help citizens of this country?
Won't you tell them, hey, hold yourself accountable.
If the cops give you an order, do not resist arrest, follow their commands, take your ass to jail, you will have your day in court.
What's wrong with that?
That's how you, that's how, that's what advice you give.
That's what advice I gave my son.
Because I'm not saying, LeBron, black lives don't matter.
They do.
But blue lives matter too.
They have families.
They have wives.
They have kids.
Everybody's life matters, LeBron.
So people need to start acting like it.
People need to hold themselves accountable.
Not just the cops, black folks too.
White folks.
Everybody needs to hold themselves accountable.
If this dude will hold himself at the level that y'all trying to hold cops to, you wouldn't even need cops.
Yeah.
We could get rid of them.
You could defund the police and make them all social workers.
Yeah.
