LeBron James and other NBA Players are the latest athletes to protest the recent decision of grand juries to not indict police officers in the deaths of 2 black men. . Before the Brooklyn Nets and Cleveland Cavaliers game Monday night, a handful of players wore T-shirts to warm up that said I cant breathe. Those were the last words of Eric Garner in New York as he was put in a chokehold by an officer. This move comes on the heels of St. Louis Rams players who held up their hands in protest last month to support Michael Brown. What are your thoughts on athletes using their profession to protest?
