"I hear these fools on TV talking about defund the police and things like that -- we need police reform and prison reform and things like that," the basketball Hall of Famer said.
Barkley's take on social injustice issues didn't stop there ... he went on to comment on theAhmaud ArberyCharles Barkley says you can't put the Breonna Taylor case in the same situation as George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery because her boyfriend shot at the police
Sit down
I agree with him
He is all about himself and once again needs attention. Please stop giving into him.
Meat Head Barkley .👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿👎🏿
It’s Charles Barkley. He’s funny, but he’s no big thinker.
I love Charles for this. He doesn’t give af about liberal narrative
I've needed police.....never ever needed a point guard KingJames. Love Charles
It is crap. He is correct
he’s 1000% suburbs,white areas,rich areas will never defund or abolish..so that leaves low income/black areas having a crippled police force/lack of resources.I don’t care if that money is going towards social programs..you know that’s not stopping crime
He's right
Correct
Smart man!
Burn Loot Murder!
Not surprised he doesn’t understand what it means. Charles IQ is very low.
That’s cuz Chuck doesn’t understand what they mean when they say it. His ass is to busy loosing $$$$$ at the casinos and Betn on golf.
At least we still have some smart people left
Thank GOD him and Shaq still have common sense! 🙏🏻
💯💙
And blm hate him for saying that.
He’s 100% right. Everyone else laughing at these morons saying “defund the police”
Meanwhile.
He’s correct.
Love Barkley, as a player & person......was never afraid to speak his mind, no matter which way you lean.
defund the police is one of most uneducated thing these liberals could have thought of tbh
Yeah, I'm no lover of the police or bluelivesmatter group by any means. I keep my distance. That being said, you can't defund the police or whatever that actually means.We need law enforcement to patrol like it or not. I just stay out of trouble so I won't have to deal with them.
He must do research on what defunding mean. The police department must be defunded, they are not equipped to handle every social issue. Charles Barkley is a sellout!!!
muzikscribe He has no idea of what is is. Dangerous
Time to clean up the police, not defund it
He’s 💯 right!
defund Charles Barkley
sorry charlie, you missed the point!
I think Charles is a Trump cult member on the low. 🤔
I haven’t called or been stopped by the police this year defund is redirecting OUR tax dollars to mental or social services. They don’t need billion dollar budgets or pensions!!!!
Actually both are right; the budgets are too big to be sustainable; you still need a force; but as to its mission and breadth, this should be resolved by each community;
About time someone had to guts to speak up
This guy never get it right.
Agree 100% with Mr Barkley !
Watched this live...he was talking about abolishing police. your headlines on this matter have been out of whack.
He’s right
Its hilarious how stupid people are. Sure defund the police. The only people that deserve safety are those who can afford to pay for a private police force. Watch how quick liberal cities w majority of poor people live become even poorer when pharmacies, store of any kind leaves
I agree !! Take money out the program that keeps us safe is stupid. Find a real solituon this sisnt it !!!
Chuckster keeping it real!
100% right Chuck!

Fact ✔: True
Finally some people with brains speaking for the nba
He literally didn’t say that. He said abolishing the police is crap
Smart man
Yes because Charles is a subject matter expert...
He’s crap. Stop posting him.
Who listens to Charles Barkley? Understand what they are actually saying before just trying to be in the spotlight
Imagine thinking that Black people want to defund the police! 85% say No! The other 15% are opportunist criminals.
He doesn’t even know what defunding the police means! 🙄🤦🏾♀️Smdh
Good
Seriously Defund the police asap
And?
Agreed.
Sir charles with a massive truth bomb
Charles is correct.
More statistics to support the need of mental health reform in these high crime areas than the police in any of these states that a shooting took place. Unjustified paranoia does not entitle adults to throw tantrums and break laws.
Good!!!!
based
He’s one hundred percent correct and so is Shaq!
Finally an athlete with a brain
HELLO WHITE PEOPLE. I have it on good authority, Black People have individual minds of their own. No one person speaks for all Black People. NOTE. Black People do not have a secret ballot where we elect a spokesperson for the Black Community. Barkley/Shaq speaks for themselves.
Police deserve to be stripped of citizenship and locked in jail. LOCKTHEMUP
Charles is awesome!! Never one to shy away from speaking his mind.
Most people who say this are very ignorant and don't even know what it means.
I love that Charles Barkley just doesn't go along with the narrative. He uses common sense and forms his own opinion.
He’s right. And they were right about Breonnas case too. The facts are.. if she hadn’t of died that night, she’d be in JAIL. Her name was on the warrant they would’ve just arrested and that would’ve been that. Sad but it’s the truth.
There has to be a balance abolishing is not the answer that’s a little much
Thank you Charles Barkley for speaking the truth. I hope he enjoyed his last barbeque though? 🤔
Someone with some sense
👏 👏 👏
Charles can stfu
thisisYG16 He ain’t lying
Just Facts
He does know what it means because we can't afford to take one penny away from the Police especially now during these crazy violent times in our Country!!!!
Finally an NBA player speaking the truth!
Barkley is a fraud!
I don't see anywhere on here that says, let's get rid of the police.. 🤷♂️
It is a terrorist organization. 🌻
I thought I had seen this earlier. Accept me for who I am; Is this an excuse for toxic or plea for compassion. Do hit the link to watch videos, like, share, subscribe and comment:
Bad cops are the issue, the internal corruption needs to be investigated and dealt with, good cops are what we need and don't turn on them, because we will always need law enforcement, what did protestors forget about crime and criminals!?
He is not wrong. They need an overhaul though in the way they train the force.
Well he ain’t the brightest bulb..
He should only speak about basketball he embarrasses himself any time he talks about anything else.
He’s right?!
I believe police should live within the communities they serve. You’re more likely to respect those within your own neighborhood or than strangers. Get police to live in our communities
FU Dr Fraudci, FU Bill Gates, FU blmantifa FU and your masks!
SandyHermannJ He is right.
HELLO WHITE PEOPLE. I have it on good authority, Black People have individual minds of their own. No one person speaks for all Black People. IMO. Instead of “Defund the Police”, Switch to “Fire all Police Unions”. They keep bad cops on the streets without any accountability.
You can't be black if you don't follow the narrative.
He’s not wrong.
Thank you Charles
I can’t stand him 😒
One if we really want to reduce crime, education equity and the establishment of a work infrastructure is the best approach. A study using 60 years of data found that an increase in funding for police did not significantly relate to a decrease in crime.
People don’t even understand what “ Defund “ means . It means to reallocate funds Baised on various performance grades in the community that they Police . It’s doesn’t mean taking money completely out departments. Speak with Knowledge and Understanding than Idiot statements!
Again..someone is using the wrong terminology. Defund and abolish is not something either side wants. Catch up, Charles!!
Yet they’ve been Defunding Schools in predominantly Black schools for Decades .... Can’t say what I want to say, but if I have haves opportunity I will some choice words for Charles Barkley !! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬‼️
i hope this is not the first time you folk realized Uncle Chuck is conservative leaning? Take the jokes; the palpable fear of Shaq knocking his ass out on the set; and the occasional 'turrible'... but don't form YOUR opinion based on anything HE says...that'd be foolish
Finally a celeb speaking the truth
Barkley is one of the few black celebrities that doesn't kowtow to the mob. Very necessary and refreshing.
Charles speaks the truth.
DefundThePolice should start with the Louisville Police Department. They’re the most incompetent I’ve seen in my life. In fact, abolish that department and rebuild from scratch.
“Uncle Tom/Bootlicker”
Haha 🤣 whatever
'Defund the police' is a slogan that supports divesting bloated funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety,healthcare, community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education,& other community resources
He’s absolutely right
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 thank you Charles Barkley for being the voice of reason!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I always liked Charles
