Why NO ONE Will 'Say His NAME'

You'll know why no one with a blue check, or a gun control agenda, or any progressive pink haired SJW will know the name Michael Hickmon.

I'll say it: "Michael Hickmon".

He was a father, a husband, and someone who used sports to give back to his community.  He was senselessly shot and killed in front of his 9 yr old son and his 9 yr old friends at a pee wee football game.

No outrage.  No tweets from the people who 'care' about the black community.  Nothing.

Let's review some of the names that none of these people say:

  • Mekhi James
  • Anthony Boyd
  • Shamoya McKenzie
  • Kayla Green

It's only people who seem to be resisting arrest, against (usually) white cops who get worldwide press.  There were riots and protests in Brussels over George Floyd.  Naturally those people over there are living on the edge watching the doings of the Minneapolis Police department, and are outraged about an ex con who pointed a gun at a pregnant woman.  Yep - that's natural and 'organic'.

Please.

Hickmon was killed, and none of the Corporate Media or big talkers on Social Media have anything to say.  Jason Whitlock is one of the few who will not only 'say his name', but say what needs saying:

"On Saturday, an argument following a youth football scrimmage led to the murder of a coach in front of his 9-year-old son. Despite the alleged shooter being the brother of a former NFL star and despite that same Super Bowl champion player being on the field when the murder happened, you probably haven’t heard the name Michael Hickmon. The former college football running back had spent his post-playing career giving back to the youth in his community. That's just what he was doing when Yaqub Talib, the brother of former Denver Broncos star Aqib Talib, shot and killed him following a post-game dispute. The story didn’t lead on ESPN’s Sportscenter, LeBron James hasn't tweeted for justice, and there is no "Say His Name" campaign for Hickmon. “Hickmon is unworthy of the kind of deification corporate and social media reserve for heroic black men harmed while resisting arrest. Hickmon is no George Floyd, Michael Brown, Daunte Wright, Rayshard Brooks, Jacob Blake, or Eric Garner.” Jason says. "It's racist to discuss the self-hatred that provokes black men to cavalierly settle disagreements with gun violence.” "Fearless" contributors Dave Shannon and Steve Kim share their thoughts on the tragedy. And Steve weighs in on whether Fox Sports and Amazon should reconsider their associations with Aqib Talib following the murder."
