• Muhammad Ali Jr., the son of the late boxing icon Muhammad Ali, told The New York Post in an hour-long interview that his father wouldn't have supported the Black Lives Matter movement, calling it "racist."
  
  
• Ali, who died aged 74 in 2016 as a result of complications of Parkinsons' disease, was a known activist who in 1964 joined the Malcolm X-led Nation of Islam.
  
  
• Ali Jr. said he believed his father would've supported the "all lives matter" movement, and thought the legendary boxer would've believed current protestors were "nothing but devils" after some demonstrations have turned destructive.
  
  
• He said he supported President Trump and believed his father would have, too.
  
  
• He added: "It's not just Black lives matter, white lives matter, Chinese lives matter, all lives matter, everybody's life matters. God loves everyone — he never singled anyone out. Killing is wrong no matter who it is."
  
  ''My father would have said, 'They ain't nothing but devils," Ali Jr, 47, told The New York Post. "My father said, 'all lives matter.' I don't think he'd agree."
  
  Ali Jr. pointed toward some of the more destructive actions of some protestors in recent weeks as part of his own dissatisfaction with the Black Lives Matter movement. While some protests — particularly early on — turned destructive, many of the still ongoing demonstrations have remained peaceful.
  
  "Black Lives Matter is not a peaceful protest. Antifa never wanted it peaceful. I would take them all out," Ali Jr. said.
  
  "It's a racial statement," he said of Black Lives Matter. "It's pitting black people against everyone else. It starts racial things to happen; I hate that."

Leftist posters will now call Ali a white Supremacist and no question would've posted frequently on Sherfront.

The democrat domestic terrorists are a real threat to this country. Any support they have come from brainwashed drones, srs

 

[sleepyguard85]

Wasn’t Ali against interracial marriage?

 

[reveler]

ali took unpopular positions when it mattered, not to cash in.

I'm guessing nobody really cares what he says and that the only reason this is a story isn't because of what he thinks but because of what he thinks his father would have thought. Speculation into another man's thoughts just isn't worthy of discussion to me.

Any Ali statues to tear down?

Well that's it then. Matter is solved. No more racism or police brutality.

Let's go home.

Good for him. He and his dad would have Sen the BLM for what they really are, a new religious movement.

Bit off topic but Malcom X would be seen as a far right conservative today.

Wasn’t Ali against interracial marriage?

Yes. Ali thought that Blacks and Whites were mostly incompatible, and supported segregation. Ironically, the left is now circling back around to this same idea.

 

[K1levelgrappler]

Who fucking cares? He’s dead. Might as well ask what a pile of mulch would have supported.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Impossible to know that.

 

[DC23]

Not the right shade of black imo. Rid him of his opinion.

[MicroBrew]

You know the son is a wacko when he defends the actions of Chauvin and the other cops. Even righties opposed to BLM and the protests acknowledge the treatment of Floyd was not right.

Malcolm X was all about self motivation and self determination. Ali was the same. These principles are antithetical to the BLM frenzy sweeping across the world.
