Hey y’all, welcome back to Unfit to Print.


BLACK VICTIMHOOD IS A TEAM SPORT

Most three-year-olds are still learning how to tie their shoes but a young soccer sensation is already dribbling circles around his opponents.

Unfortunately, Nevada Pierre’s parents have apparently already taught him another one of America’s favorite pastimes: making everything about race.

The pint-sized Florida phenom went viral Monday, but not for his soccer skills. According to child entertainer Ms. Rachel, the young boy was “kicked out of the league” because he is “too good at soccer.”

“The police were called on a 3 year old Black boy because he’s too good at soccer,” Ms. Rachel said on Instagram. “The cops showed up at the game.”

Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III jumped in and called the situation ridiculous.

There was a problem with the story, though.

It wasn’t true — at least not the version that the internet racial grievance crowd was telling.
