No more hashtags.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In an interview with VICE Sports, which was also released on Tuesday, Anthony reflected on marching in Baltimore after the death of Freddie Gray. He said that he has \u201Crelationships\u201D with police in Baltimore, but that there are some that will give him issues.\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022&amp;nbsp;LeBron:&amp;nbsp;Philando&amp;nbsp;Castile shooting \u2018sickens me\u2019&amp;nbsp;|&amp;nbsp;Players make voices heard\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u201CYou have police that I know by first name. You have good relationships with some of these police,\u201D Anthony said. \u201CAnd there will always be the one out of five who, you see him, you already know that it's instant problems, right away. It's not about trying to take down, or bad-mouth the police force and the officers. There are good police, and there are f\u2014ed up police. That's the way it is.\u201D\r\n\r\n&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The country was shaken by three acts of violence last week, the deadliest an attack on police in Dallas during a Black Lives Matter protest that left five officers dead.&amp;nbsp;\r\n&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
