As a fellow European…Wemby stay off US politics. Don't get dragged into that black hole.
"Saying too much is a cost to me". That's something Ali, Bill Russell, Jim Brown and Akeem never cared about. We aren't built the same anymore, yet we crash out against each other everyday because we're too scared to direct our frustrations to the people it should be towards. We're a sad sad collection of people.
Let’s wait till the whole thing is out and all info is known
Wemby thank you for speaking up. This will be heard around the world.
wow wow big up to wemby …thanks so for much for sharing love and the truth –murderer killing murder citizens
respect to espn brining it up — thank you very much – unite

Love to Wemby
Great video 😊😊wow!! I like it
🗯Quotes for today is:
If you smile when no one else is around, you really mean it
Who shows up armed to a peaceful protest? It sucks that a life was lost but he was obviously looking for trouble
Well said, Wemby. Speak your mind.
WEMBY IS A GOOD YOUNG MAN AND NOT GET INTO DETAILS TO SITES THIS INCIDENTS….

IS NOT STRANGE THE OFFICERS DID IT RIGHT TO RESPOND IN SECONDS. THIS IS THE RIGHT RESPOND IN ANY CRITICAL DANGEROUS SITUATIONS!
THE AGGRESSOR PAID FOR HIS ACTION FOR NOT COMPLYING TO OFFICERS IN DUTY OF DANGEROUS!
ALEX GOT NO BUSINESS TO BE THERE AND WITH FIRE ARM AND AGGRESSOR ACTIONS AGAINST OFFICERS IN DANGEROUS DUTY!
Ice better leave this man alone! 😆
When have NBA players ever stayed silent?lol
3 long years and we wipe them out.
Much respect for Wemby!
Go back to France tf 😂
Who
I'm grateful that they're calling it murder!!!!!!!!!!!
What a bunch of BS – No foreigner is in danger – It’s a terrible situation that for decades the southern border under many administrations was not properly protected and the situation is out of hand – Something has to be done and it’s complicated and it is all complicated the way we lawfully protest and so many police officers and border control officers have lost their lives on split second decisions- It is very sad about the two lives that have been lost in Minnesota and that could have been avoided yet you can not have people harassing and physically interfering with federal law enforcement that are given a job to do and they are feeling physically threatened/ it is easy to see the way she drove away in that car and it is easy to see him interfering with them dealing with that woman and he is putting up a physical struggle , these are grey dangerous areas that will have these agents nervous and no matter how well trained they will be fearing for their lives . Protest in the voting booth or go to Washington where the orders are given but taunting these agents is a huge mistake and we don’t hear all this noise when we see another innocent American killed by an illegal allien…
Why doesn't ESPN or these athletes speak out on the Americans that are harmed by illegal immigrants? why the fake outrage when its ICE that does it? When it's an immigrant doing it, it gets brushed under the rug.
But what did Wemby say? He didn't say anything. And he definitely didn't say he didn't feel "safe". She's putting liberal white women words in his mouth. Say what he actually said, or don't quote him at all. Mainstream media twisting words as usual. 2:13
Charlie Kirk is assissinated in public, not a word from BSPN. A nurse pulls a gun on LEOs and BSPN shows it's woke bias underbelly. Color me not shocked. Wokebanyama can go back to France. What a chump.
Stfu and dribble
What a bunch of liberal garbage! When you break the law you just might get killed. Go back to France Victor and the rest of you ESPN woke liberals! Pure propaganda!
It's already bad enough for those out confronting it in Minny right now. I'm serious, "When is enough enough?"
leave politics out of sports, wemby should worry about basketball, just like protesters should stay at home and worry about their own lives.🤷
Shut up & dribble!! This 🥷🏾 has an african lineage… how else do u think he ended up in Europe in the 1st place!! A bunch overpaid athletes & entertainers speaking on matters they don't even research!! These cry baby ballers better focus on playing 82 games & competing on the court NOT in the political theater where they aren't researched enough!!
Play basketball and shut up
All Wemby did was express his personal feelings. That's not political, that's human.
Think about Enis Kanter kicked out league for being outspoken
He’s obviously been warned NOT to talk about it.
Shoutout to Wemby for speaking up 🐐
Quinton Post said something as well, he’s from The Netherlands.
Hanna needs a facelift!
How many nba players have an IQ over 80?
ABOLISH ICE
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Have you seen France? Pretty messed up place. He should mind his business. He's ignorant to facts.
Yes it’s too dangerous he should move back to France, he won’t tho he’ll just criticize like every other entitled and ignorant immigrant. France is a cesspool 😂😂 another puppet
NBA and Wemby are a joke.
I love this kid. He's the best!
Perhaps the nba should strike until ice leaves Minnesota
Where is LeBron where is curry? Why are American superstars not speaking up?
I think if you're in your 20s/below and you eat this performative outrage up, it's somewhat understandable. Probably went to college.
However if you're in your 30s/older and still that impressionable, you're probably dumb. 😂
ESPN = dumb agenda driven stuff first. Advertisers second. Sports third.
He need a shape up bad
IT'S A FEW WHITE PEOPLE BEING SHOT BY FEDS….. I'M BLACK AND THIS ISN'T SAD AT ALL…. WHITE PEOPLE IN MINNESOTA ARE BEING KILLED CAUSE THERE STUPID
TO THE FRENCH KID, YOUR COUNTRY WAS NO BETTER WHEN IT CAME TO BLACK FOLKS AFTER THE WAR BUT LIKE YOUR COUNTRY, IT'S UNDERSTANDABLE WHY YOU CARE ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE
