Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James chimed in on the awful death of Ahmaud Arbery, a young black man who was shot down by two white men back in February.

The four-time MVP did not hold back his thoughts as he launched a diatribe on the racism that still exists in this country.

James, 35, has been extremely vocal about social issues in the past.

As matter of fact, he has faced criticism for speaking out on similar issues, including those surrounding the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and Michael Brown.

Arbery, 25, was jogging in his neighborhood outside Brunswick, Ga. on Feb. 23 when two men shot him down in the middle of the road because they suspected he was a robber. Yet, the case didn’t get national attention until a video depicting the murder was released recently.

A grand jury is looking into whether criminal charges will be filed in the horrific death of the youngster.
