Deplorable Spray Painted The N Word On LeBron James' Los Angeles Home *

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Los Angeles police were called Wednesday to a home belonging to Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James to investigate a racial slur spray-painted on the front gate.

Police confirmed the incident, which is still under investigation, to ESPN. It was first reported by TMZ.

The Brentwood home is not James' primary residence. Capt. Patricia Sandoval, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles Police Department, told The Associated Press that James wasn't home at the time. She said the property manager told officers they believe the incident was captured on surveillance video.

Sandoval said an unidentified person spray-painted the N-word on the front gate. Police are investigating it as an act of vandalism and possible hate crime.

She said someone painted over the slur before officers arrived on early Wednesday morning.

James bought the house in 2015 for roughly $20.9 million. It is 9,440 square feet.

"It's ignorance, that's what it is," a source close to James with knowledge of the situation told ESPN's Dave McMenamin. "Unfortunately in 2017 people still think the way they do. I can't say it's surprising given what's happened in this country the last eight months.

"You can be a titan of industry, you can be a community leader, you can be the best at what you do and they can cut you down to just, 'You're black.'"

James and the Cavaliers are in the Bay Area to take on the Golden State Warriors for Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

THIS IS WHAT THE ELECTION OF DONALD TRUMP HAS WROUGHT


*Deplorables on the ESPN Comments page are saying it's a false flag attack. Maybe those cretins think LeBron did it.

3. Yup and expect to see more of it

Personally I think LeBron James is an awesome dude and one hell of a basketball player. He'd be welcome in my home any time

As I look out my window as I type this I see a man who is too old now to do something like this but you can rest assured he is all for all of this racist shit.
I totally wrote him off even though we've known each other for years. He knows why I did this too.

When he told me it didn't matter that he and his wife voted for tRump cause the whole state went for him so heavily, that was it for me. My reply as I left was but you didn't know that when you voted early that morning.

Fuck a bunch of racist assholes, all of them

6. I remember when this happened to

a friend of mine when we were still in high school, in the 1960's. Her family moved to a white neighborhood. Someone painted the n-word on the garage doors. I remember that they were so stupid that they could not even spell it properly.

The neighbors tried to fix the doors with a new paint job before her family saw it. I wonder if that would happen now.
