Also how is ending police chokeholds going to prevent less deaths all it's going to do is result in more use of cops using their guns. Such a stupid thing to put in a statement.
Again, I'd refer to the Ravens' statement.
As a pretty self-aware owner shouldn't Mike be making sure his players feel safe? That they aren't liable to be arrested for the slightest reason
Why should the burden of righting wrongs always fall on the victim?
How's it good business to alienate your most valuable assets? Fans stopped attending when the Bengals started losing. Now you've got a leader who you are looking to build around and who is inspiring the fan base and his stance on this issue is clear. You want to be on his side or not?
You look at your other star players - people like Dunlap, AJ Green, Mixon - these are players you need to win and they have opinions on this issue. Do you stand with them or not?
What you need to get fans onside is have these players successful. It's good business to be on the side of these players.
If people like you were really serious about black lives this is what you would be pushing for.
1st End the Drug war- most murders happen because of gang war fair. Gangs get their money from dugs. End the the selling of illegal drugs by making them legal you end gangs.
2.) End police unions
3.) Require more training for cops and require all cops to have at least 4 years of military/National service.
4.) School choice
5.) Less taxes and regulations on small businesses
