Donald Sterling is a Democrat

The Washington Post has had daily opinion pieces by various sportswriter morons advocating that the league take the team away from him.

I'm not defending Sterling any more than I defend Bundy. Bundy is probably more defensible. Sterling is either borderline senile or just willfully self-destructive.

Still. It bothers me that a guy can be punished with little in the way of due process for a thought crime. Let's say he is hopelessly prejudiced. So what? The laws prohibit discriminatory actions, not thoughts or private words.

Liberals are passionate about defending free speech and unpopular positions, provided they agree with them. when it is something that runs afoul of their PC code, then the gloves come off. Their first instinct is to try to destroy the person. We saw it with the traditional marriage referendum in california. They are still out trying to ferret out supporters of that so they can be persecuted. These are the same people who celebrate the Hollywood communists of the 1950's as some kind of national heroes because they faced the same kind of persecution. The difference is Sterling is not trying to convert anybody. He was having an argument with his 25 year old GF.

It is not a "thought crime", he flapped his hole and got caught. In blabbus veritus.

By the way, your previous post, were you referring to all "blacks"?

Well said. This is absolutely a thought crime, an inevitable consequence of political correctness run amok.

If we taped and exposed the worst of Obama's private conversations, for example, I'm confident we'd find things that even Tingles would turn on him for.

As usual aaa is wrong, he is blinded by his bias.
Replace the word black with Christian and you'd see an explosion on TV, internet, talk radio and all the news channels demanding this man be removed from the NBA. There would be a boycott. Replace the word black with Tea Party and the outcry would be nonstop from the right. Fox would be 24/7 talking about what should happen to this man. The hypocrisy of the right knows no bounds.

An indirect way of telling the inmates you swallow? Must have made you quite popular with them. :D
