國會大廈暴動鎮壓太和平!?多位球星不滿美國警察執法雙標
文/STeam
上千名川普(Donald Trump)日前群聚美國國會大廈前,抗議此次美國總統大選選舉不公,隨後並強行突破國會大廈防線,試圖阻止國會議員召開認證美國大選結果的會議,整起事件演變成激烈的警民衝突,目前已造成四人死亡。

面對這場失控的抗議活動,不少NBA球星除了表達譴責暴力之外,也對美國警察對於不同人種的執法標準感到不以為然,包括湖人隊球星詹姆士(LeBron James)、塞爾提克隊球星布朗(Jaylen Brown)等人,都覺得現在根本有「兩個美國」,其中一個美國讓你隨時都有可能被無辜槍殺,另一個美國則是不管你怎麼作亂,都不會被瘋狂逮捕,也不會有催淚瓦斯,暗指美國警方對以白人居多的國會抗議活動顯然寬容許多。

“In one America, you get killed by sleeping in your car, selling cigarettes or playing in your backyard. In another America, you get to storm the Capitol, and no tear gas, no massive arrests, none of that.”

勇士隊球星格林(Draymond Green)則是將製造國會動亂的示威群眾形容為「恐怖份子」,他認為這根本不是抗議活動,而是恐怖攻擊,這些人根本不配被稱之為抗議群眾。

不過也有球星對這場暴動完全無感,火箭隊哈登(James Harden)被問到對此看法時說道:「我不知道有這回事。」
