LeBron James takes his role as a community leader in Cleveland very seriously. It's the primary reason he returned to play for the Cavaliers as a free agent last summer; simply put, the city and its people have a special place in his heart.

Once James got word that a six-month-old baby was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting, he took to Twitter to express his outrage, while trying to enact change at the very same time.

C'mon man let's do and be better! Don't fall into the trap. This can't be only way. Accept more from yourselves. #TheLand #TheNation
