Charles Barkley calls Ferguson rioters ‘scumbags,’ supports grand jury decision 'Those aren't black people, those are scumbags,' Barkley said of looters who targeted businesses and police cars following a grand jury's decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson in the shooting death of black teenager Michael Brown.
"The true story came out from the grand jury testimony," Barkely said, adding that "three or four witnesses, who were black, said exactly what the cop [WILSON] said."
Charles Barkley ‘Agrees’ With Zimmerman Verdict, Hits Media For Giving ‘Racists’ A ‘Platform To Vent Ignorance’
NBA legend Charles Barkley appeared on CNBC’s Closing Bell with Maria Bartiromo
Thursday afternoon and shared his incredibly diplomatic views on George Zimmerman‘s
acquittal. “I agree with the verdict,” Barkley told Bartiromo. “I’m sorry that young kid got
killed, but they didn’t have enough evidence to charge him.”
Barkley admitted that he did see some “racial profiling” in the case,
but said “something happened that changed the dynamic that night.”
He recognized what he was saying was “probably not a popular opinion
among most people,” but “looking at the evidence” he said he agreed
with the jury’s decision.
