Jesse Jackson, in a surprise to no one, took advantage of the LeBron James saga to say something ludicruis and claim some media attention for himself.

Jackson has called out Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert for his open letter to LeBron James when James spurned the Cavs to join the Miami Heat.

Jesse Jackson’s Radical Racial Comments About Dan Gilbert:

“He speaks as an owner of LeBron and not the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers. His feelings of betrayal personify a slave master mentality. He sees LeBron as a runaway slave.”

He goes on, “LeBron is not a child, nor is he bound to play on Gilbert’s plantation and be demeaned. He has been a model citizen and has inspired the children of Akron, Cleveland, the State of Ohio and the United States.”

Jesse, Gilbert’s letter to James had nothing to do with race, slavery, plantations, or human trafficking.  Gilber’s letter spoke summed up how almost all Cavs fans felt upon hearing of James decision to leave them on a nationally televised one-hour LeBacle.

Jackson has done some good things in his life, and in the Civil Rights movement, but he more often than not hijacks corporations, individuals, and others to make himself newsworthy or for his own financial gain.

Jesse is the same man that was caught on an open mic during the 2008 Presidential campaign saying he wanted to cut Barack Obama’s nuts off.

It’s time for Jesse to get a job!
