curry is frustrated and throws his mouthpiece. curry, wife who we know will hear in the bay area started tweeting. i have lost all respect this is absolutely brick for money or ratings i am not sure which. i would not be silent. i decided a lot, sorry. she did apologize. >> grant: i can take a loss. i disconnected people coming at my family for no reason. she later informed us that her father was racially profile. she did delete it and short-time ago but obviously the internet cap should her feelings for everyone to see. and that is one of the sidebars to this very dramatic night in game 7 is for sunday for it--and gain seven is scheduled for sunday. the city. >> people are upset again for the mistrust and lack of trust in this government. >> they claim that they see it and take pictures. >> justine: and a tory is spot for sex workers. if the allegations are true this is an unacceptable way for sworn officers to act against the people they should be protecting. >> this is what they are sharing with me that some of these relationsh
