Apparently the son doesn't know the father as well as he thinks he does.
    You just did it again! You think you know what Ali thought better than his own son, just because you saw him on TV.

      Jim's doing that thing again, where he already showed his hand, and now he can't possibly admit he was wrong.

      Everything in Ali's life showed he was a pacifist. That is WHY he refused to join the military.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        If that's not implying that his son is a liar, what is?
        No, affirming that the son is expressing his own beliefs, is not implying that he is lying. Stop saying stupid stuff!
        And YOU are the one who said....



        The links were there in my post.
        Right, in my opinion he does sound like a clueless dope concerning his father.

          That doesn't even make sense. Christianity isn't a race, it is a set of beliefs. If you don't hold those beliefs then you aren't Christian - that's just logic. You can't stop being black because you disagree with Democrats, yet they treat you like a race traitor if you do disagree.

            So, the MOST CLUELESS DOPE who ever posted on Tweb thinks Ali's son is a clueless dope.

            In my opinion, of course.

            Ali was a pacifist. What his son says about him is very consistent with the life Ali lived.

              Cp's doing that thing again where he can't follow an argument without reading into it what he will.

              And there you go. The argument is whether Ali would have believed BLM was a racist movement, CP. Try not to get lost in your own agenda.

                Jim, seriously --- you would have looked a LOT less foolish if you had simply said something like....

                "Well, Ali is certainly entitled to his opinion, because he was a pacifist".

                But, no, you have to attack a BLACK MAN as a "clueless dope".

                  Yet, libraries are FULL of people writing books about their deceased father. And as for "cite what they said" --- he's doing just THAT!



                  Actually, Ali died in 2016, and BLM was started in 2013.
                  Mohammad Ali never commented on 'Black Lives Matter.'

                    So, you accuse CP of lying, but not Ali's son. But now you are accusing Ali's son of lying.

                    Try to get your silly accusations straight, ok?

                        Yes, that's what his own son said. But you racist white crackers can't POSSIBLY believe a black man can think on his own.

                          Muhammad Ali never even mentioned 'Black Lives Matter.' Actually I do not think that his son said he was quoting his father. He said anecdotally it was what his father would have believed.

                                How do you know that? How can you possibly claim that with any semblance of truth?

                                Actually I do not think that his son said he was quoting his father. He said anecdotally it was what his father would have believed.


                                This is very consistent with the life Ali lived, regardless of what a couple of racist white crackers would claim.
