GreeneMachine Report post Posted May 1, 2014 Been following this pretty close cause I enjoy sh%# shows. Dude gets fined $2.5MM for stating his preference (which he was definitely wrong for thinking), and TNT has Charles Barkley commenting on the matter, and I quote: "Myself, Shaq and Kenny are black, but weren't not really black. We're all successful and really, really wealthy. When I talk about "my people" being black, I'm talking about the poor black people." If a white dude said that he'd be out of a job...or $2.5MM! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

firstcoueswas80 Report post Posted May 1, 2014 Who cares? Honestly... The race card has been pulled out more then the Picachoo card when that was popular! These 'race wars' we 'suffer' through today are nothing compared to the what, 50's and 60's? Thats then race was a huge deal... Now every one pulls the race card for any subject that upsets them. Period. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted May 2, 2014 Not saying Obamas trustworthy... I'm just saying sometimes a pigeon just craps on your car... And sometimes that pigeon poop really did come from one of Obama's pigeons and it is pretty distinct, but if you want to keep oooing and awwwwwing the Emperors Clothes then you live in the right country to do that....

Coach Report post Posted May 2, 2014 Two words. "Smoke Screen". One would almost assume that nothing of importance is going on in Ukraine. These "racist" or other sensational news stories just happen to pop up while the actual news that impacts our lives, and the world our kids will have to manage and deal with, go unnoticed. In other news, according to CNN's top stories, a 765 lb woman races to lose weight (not a joke, it's there). Forget about our cold-war adversary making strategic moves to conquer, by force Eastern Europe, hard evidence that our white house covered up the Benghazi calculated terrorist attack in Libya that killed U.S. Ambassador Stevens and several ex-navy seals while our government watched in complicity. Forget about our own BATF arming drug cartels while law-abiding gun owners and manufacturers are having their doors kicked in by militarized police forces from... the IRS, EPA, BLM...WTF??? Those chosen to serve and protect America's freedom are arming to the teeth with MRAP vehicles, m4's so much ammo they're literally destroying over $1Billion in excess ammo, while we can't get a box of .22 LR. Yet, what's front page across every news media from Fox to all the alphabet channels, and super libs like MSNBC? An 80+ year old billionaire said something many consider racist. Time to get a grip folks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted May 2, 2014 I can see the irony. A racist who owns an NBA team that is predominately Black players. Maybe he should think about a Hockey team.Heck....I wan't a Sugar Momma. She can pull my hair and call me dirty names, as long as she shows me the "Huntin Money":huh: Don't need a Bentley, or BMW. Just a nice hunting truck.....and a Bass Boat. I won't even record our conversations.3 more years, and Obama won't be sending those Pigeons too Poop on my truck anymore. But the way the sheep of this country vote, Billary Clinton has Pigeons also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DesertBull Report post Posted May 3, 2014 Paid her off ? He bought her a Bentley, a Porsche and a $2m dollar house. What he should do is have her charged with recording him without consent. Then go away and never come back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dustin25 Report post Posted May 3, 2014 Or better yet he shouldn't be a racist, or at least say racist things, and own an NBA team... There's no viable excuse for his actions and he's paying the consequences.this is nobody's fault but his. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted May 3, 2014 Paid her off ? He bought her a Bentley, a Porsche and a $2m dollar house. What he should do is have her charged with recording him without consent. Then go away and never come back. True, But a payoff could have been cheaper than what he stands to lose otherwise. Playing with scheming Gold diggers certainly has a price tag.
