Gregg Popovich: 'I’m Sick and Tired of 50 and 60 and 70 Year Old White Men Screwing Up All of Our Lives Because They're Selfish'

Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich is not pleased with some politicians’ responses to the May 24 mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, in which 19 children and two teachers were killed at Robb Elementary School. Specifically white, male politicians of a certain age.

Speaking Saturday at “Stand with Uvalde,” a fundraiser and community gathering, the 73-year-old Popovich said “I’m sick and tired of 50- and 60- and 70-year-old white men screwing up all our lives because they are selfish and really care about nothing else but their position.”

He also lambasted politicians such as Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, for focusing on the mental health crisis in the U.S., rather than instituting gun control policies.
