If the man wants to go to a strip club he should be allowed to i don't care im pretty sure he's been to strip clubs where there hasn't been shootings. I can't believe you would blame a man for getting stabbed at a bowling alley. Instead you should look at it as oh life is pretty messed up when you can't even go bowling. So basically you just want this guy to stay in the house since no matter what happens troubles seems to follow. (they could have been trying to rob him or he could have started a fight who knows but to blame a man for getting stabbed without knowing the full details of the situation is ignorant.)
Your right theres plenty of black athletes that don't have that issue the same way they are plenty of black athletes that do have that issue. What I am saying once he was labeled as a trouble maker or what ever he will get more attention and people will go after him more. Whether it be the media, cops, or random people try to get a court settlement.
Race has a factor in every aspect of American life to say it doesn't play a factor in this is ridiculous.
It's like the man has to be confined to a glass jar in order for you to be content with him. Has some of the things he done been stupid yes do the people he hang around bring him down yes. However he is still young and he will still have to learn this things. For you to try to sit there and act all high and mighty and holier than though is ridiculous. Everyone makes mistakes and no one is perfect.
5 arrest zero convictions he can't be that bad. Being questioned by the police makes him guilty of absolutley nothing
No he doesn't have to stay in his house all the time. But he needs to learn to stop putting himself in bad situations. Rather thats simply because he goes to incredibly piss poor strip clubs, that he's just asking for something to happen in, or it's a case of who he hangs out with, whatever it is it is ON HIM.
Plenty of people go to strip clubs, all the time (Famous and not famous) and they don't have these issues seem to happen every time they turn around. The fact that you want to make it all about "poor him" he's being mistreated cause he's black and he's gotten himself a bad lable is incredibly ignorant on your part. At some point people HAVE to take responsibility for putting themselves into bad positions. He continues to hang out with the same type of people, go to the same types of places, and has gotten himself in trouble more than once.
STOP doing it. It's that simple. If you're innocent, and know that you're just going to be picked on by people if you go to these places, then DON'T GO. It's that simple. There is nothing so great about going to strip joints that he just HAS to risk it. He's an idiot. He puts himself in bad situations, either by being totally stupid himself or by being stupid enough to hang out with people who are getting him in trouble.
He didn't say why he got stabbed but what the hell are you going to get stabbed over in bowling? Seriously? Again it's not about the fact that he got stabbed, that no doubt sucked, but it's the fact that in a setting where it should be near impossible to have something really violent happen (And I don't know maybe the bowling in other parts of the world attract far more shaddy people or the ones there really take their bowling more seriously than I've ever seen) and he still got into a violent situation.
There is something wrong with that. Something SERIOUSLY wrong with that.
Again he doesn't have to stay confined to his home and maybe it is who he hangs out with. But you know what? Again that is his choice. He continues to hang out with people who get him in trouble, and bring him down, and that makes it his fault as well. It's not impossible to say "You know what. I'm an adult, I'm an athlete, and I don't need to hang out with this crowd."
It's pretty simple. So even if he isn't the reason he's getting in trouble, and it's all whoever he hangs out with, he's still not smart enough to STOP hanging out with whose getting him in trouble. Again, thats is on him. Not the color of his skin and not anyone else.
And yes, everyone makes mistakes. Smart people, however, learn from their mistakes long before it costs them their jobs or gets them in this kind of trouble. I've made loads of mistakes in my life but I've somehow managed to not get myself questioned about shootings, stabbings, or stupid crap like that when I've been to strip joints or clubs or at the local bowling alley.
The kid is an idiot. The fact that you want to make him out to be a victim, based soley on his skin color, is a real problem with this world. No one wants to take responsibility for their own decisions, and actions, cause it's always easier to find guys like you who will agree that it isn't their fault it's always someone being mean to them, picking on them, or being racist against them.
