Before you look down on LeBron James' response to the Tamir Rice case, look within: Chris Haynes

CLEVELAND, Ohio – LeBron James has never been shy to give his take on matters of social and racial injustice.

His resume includes orchestrating his Miami Heat teammates to pose for a picture wearing hoodies in 2012 to support Trayon Martin, who was shot by a neighborhood watch volunteer in Florida; and his taking of the court in Brooklyn sporting an "I can't breathe" T-shirt in 2014 in memory of Eric Garner, who was choked to death by a New York cop.

When educated on a controversial subject, James expresses himself, something few athletes dare to do.
