Sir Charles has spoken.
Charles Barkley is a man who has never shied away from saying what is on his mind no matter how controversial it might be. The NBA on TNT analyst appeared on CNN during the elections earlier this month and gave a eye-popping statement on Black people and how they treat gay people. Barkley said that he believes Black people treat gay people worse than anyone.
“One thing that’s always disappointed me: Black people treat gay people, we are the worst when it comes to treating gay people,” Barkley said.
Charles Barkley (to no surprise) just got on #CNN and LIED talking about how Black people are the main ones to treat members of the LGBTQ community with the most hate. How many biscuits does he need? 🦝@Marcel4Congress @tariqnasheed @RizzaIslam @drboycewatkins1 @DillardVicki pic.twitter.com/cKR4E2kcAR

If you know anything about the NBA Hall of Famer, then you should expect him to never come out and clarify his statement or apologize for what he said.
Social media will be mad for a bit, but this will ultimately be forgotten and lost in the ever-changing news cycle.
That’s just how the internet works these days.
