Qasim C. Shabazz Asad on Facebook posts: Omaha Police Department pulled me and bud/Terence Crawford over tonight with Herb Williams/Coach Malachi in the car for a traffic infraction. After announcing that we had LEGAL FIREARMS in the car we had guns drawn on us !!!! I'll be going live tomorrow, to actually be one who host Gun Seminars and classes on how to stay alive during a traffic stop and to be a victim of a rage police officer while celebrating and protecting the CHAMP is insane!!! Tonight we almost lost our lives and we gonna deal with it accordingly 100% Kelly Shoe King Peak on Facebook posts: You ran the fuckn plates you know who it is !! His Security clearly is in full fuckn gear and his vest has a whole Company logo on it what the fuck !! I am telling you I have a legal fire arm does not mean draw your Fuckn Guns !! Yes Yes It’s the Champ you clearly see who it is or I am sure one of you guys notice who he is what the fuck trash .. Precious McKesson on Facebook posts: I want to be clear that what happened the early hours this morning to Terence Crawford and Qasim C. Shabazz Asad, and passengers who were pulled over by the Omaha Police Department with guns drawn, is unacceptable and concerning. I say this because Bud's car windows aren't tinted, and they saw his face clearly and knew who he was. I have all the confidence that our Mayor John W. Ewing, Jr. will ask for a full investigation into this, and that the police officer who did this will be held accountable for his excessive actions. I stand by these words: not all police officers are bad, and those who abuse their power will be held accountable for their actions. Let the champ, Qasim, and Mayor have their discussions about this incident and we follow their lead.

A post by Parker Molloy on Bluesky that reads: "This is presented as some sort of heartwarming story, but it sucks shit" followed by a link and screenshot of an article from The Washington Post that reads: "A trans girl was banne dfrom her track team. Now she's competing with the boys." "After President Donald Trump banned transgender girls from competing in girls' sports, a Virginia high-schooler joined the boys' team." Parker Molloy responds to someone named McClain concerning this topic of discussion: "Are you familiar with the story of Mack Beggs?" "The tl;dr is that he was a trans boy in Texas who wanted to compete in wrestling against boys. They forced him to wrestle girls. He won the state championship and people screamed about how it was unfair. And in the years since they've used his photo to argue against trans *girls* in girls sports."
