- ON THE PRESIDENT TO ACKNOWLEDGE - ITHAT. - HE, HOWEVER, LEAN IN TO LAW - AND ORDER TONIGHT, NO DOUBT - ABOUT THAT. - THE ONLY QUESTION IS WHETHER HE - WILL SOUND MORE LIKE RICHARD - NIXON OR GEORGEWALLACE. - >> WOW. - GARY ABERNATHY, HOW DO YOU SEE - THIS ISSUE OF RACIAL INEQUITY? - WE SEE AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL - ATHLETES ALL EXPRESSING THEIR - VIEWS FROM ONE END OF THE - COUNTRY TO THE OTHER. - >> YEAH. - AND YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT WITH - E PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES. - I'M NOT SURE BOYCOTTING THE - GAMES IS GOING TO BE EFFECTIVE. - YOU KNOW, MOST AMERICANS DON'T - LOOK AT ATHLETES AS ESSENTIAL - WORKERS. - THIS IS NOT LIKE POLICE OFFICERS - REFUSING TO DO THEIRR - FIREMEN. - WE CAN LIVE WITHOUT SPORTS. - I'D LIKE TO SEE EM FIND - ANOTHER WAY TO EXPRESS - THEMSELVES. - IT'S HARD FOR PEOPLE TO - SYMPATHIZE WITH MULTIMILLION - DOLLAR ATHLETES. - JUDY, FIRST OF ALL, LET ME THANK - YOU FOR PROVIDING OUR TV STUDIO
