Clippers Owner Donald Sterling Tells Girlfriend: Don’t Bring Black People

[katsteve2012]

My wife is black. Her sisters' son brought a girl home once that hated my white skin so much she couldn't eat dinner with us. It was despicable. I didn't act like I knew what was going on. I tried to be nice to her, but the fact that she was so prejudice that the sight of me made her sick to her stomach, where does that kind of hatred come from?????

You sure the food wasn't bad?

Not funny.

Nope, spaghetti seems to agree with most......she asked Ali, my nephew, to take her to McDonalds after we ate. Seems the food made her hungry, she just couldn't bring herself to eat in front of me.

BTW, I'm not ugly. Back then I was pretty hansom, but the color of my skin bothered her.

My nephew was taught to hate whites by his mom too. This fact came up after she died and we had to take him in.

So based on the sentiments of your deceased sister and law and her son who she taught certain beliefs to, that means that black people in general are taught to hate white people?

San Diego is my hometown so we have living there in common. I was bused to predominately white Horace Mann Jr. High in the 60's and encountered an apathetic and belligerent staff of teachers and administrators who for the most part would have been ecstatic to see me and those like me fail academically when I attended there.

Many of them were in fact angry about even being assigned to teach black kids. Much to their chagrin none of us failed, and more than half of the 60 of us sent there made the honor society.

In addition, there were hundreds of white kids who attended the school who were taught to believe that black people actually had tails and did not know how to eat with forks and knives. They were shocked when they discovered that to be false after being in the same P.E. class, and eating in the cafeteria around the few blacks that were there.

Everyday when our bus arrived at the campus, police officers were there to "watch us", not protect us.

I could relate dozens of instances that occurred there over a two year period that could have made me assume that white people "hate" black people as well, but even those experiences considered, I don't believe that. The world is a big place, and I have traveled enough around this country and even out of the country to know that is not true.

What I do think though, is that you possibly justify your own racist tendencies based on some isolated cases, and that you possibly are hypersensitive and look for even the slightest reason to believe that you are a hate target of black people.

Can you in fact say unanimously that every black person you have encountered even in passing hates you because you are white?

I blame ESPN for pushing this story down everyone's throat. It's all they want to talk about.

It's intended to breed racial divisions. Just like Trayvon Martin.

Um, Trayvon bred racial divisions because a white guy shot an unarmed black child and got away with it. Not because anyone "pushed" it down anyone's throat.

This one. My guess is, the NBA is going to push this guy out because they know he just insulted most of their customer base.

Not to mention his own employees, as well as other NBA players around the league, who would probably not want to be traded to the team.


Imagine how this will impact the Clippers in the NBA draft as well. It is likely that there will college players entering the NBA that will not want to play for them.

Out of the mouth of idiots like Maher....

Because Sterling is a rabid democrat he could get away with being a racist. This is Los Angeles and he will never be forgiven for saying something against Magic Johnson. He picked the single most well liked and well respected person in the entire city! It's like dissing the Pope in Rome.

Sterling will have to pack up and leave. The Clippers are done. As an Angelino, I'm flummoxed.

No. Sterling is a registered Republican as the following article from the L.A. times dated April 28th states. And also, as the headline of the article states
"Does it Reall Matter?"

IMO not at all. There are jerkoffs in both parties, and no matter what his political loyalty is, he is first and foremost a businessman, and obviously not a very good one to make the comments that he allegedly made.

Donald Sterling is a Republican, not a Democrat -- but does it matter? - latimes.com

The L.A. Times would never, ever, under any circumstance, ever, ever lie for the race-peddlers in the Democrat Party......

Neither would the New York Times.......

BTW, The NAACP is so racist they would never give an award to a registered Republican......ever....

Lol, Sterling gives money to the Democrats, but is a registered Republican; who gives a **** if that makes him 'really' a Democrat or a Republican?

He is a businessman and they play all sides of any situation.

What is FACT is that he was a previously KNOWN RACIST and for some reason all this is now a big controversy when there are plenty of racists among sports team owners aside from him and we all know that if we are honest about it.

This is nothing more than political posturing and hypocrisy; i.e. just another day for libtard Nazis.

If you read what i posted, I stated that IMO it does not really matter if he is a democrat or republican. So what is your point?

 

[Mad_Cabbie]

Why was this man being recorded? By whom? What is the state law about recording someone without permission? Why do people care about this?

It's horseshit.

I do not have a political dog in the fight over Sterling. If the L.A. Times statement that Sterling is in fact a Republican is a lie, you are certainly free to prove that.

And as far as the NAACP being racist, you are are also welcome to prove that as well.

Reading what you post it is obvious that anything remotely associated with the black population who is "taught to hate white people" is in fact racist by association.

:

Living in a world filled with bad feelings and negativity can cause terrible consequences.
No, not every black person hates or dislikes whites, just a majority of them. If they didn't they wouldn't vote overwhelmingly for Obama, and they vote for the likes of Marion Barry, a known drug offender, simply because of the color of his skin. They have been reminded not to trust whites. I imagine most blacks can't stand whites. Some blacks can't even stand other blacks if you look at the way they treat each other. But they especially don't like whites. It's easy to do so when you have the current administration telling them that white people (Republicans) want to put chains on them and want to bring back slavery or some such silly nonsense. And don't you dare be critical of Obama, because that would be racist.


You mentioned forced busing during the 60s, which was a Democrat idea BTW, an idea that was very unpopular. Back then they wanted us to learn to get along, to give blacks the same opportunities as whites. Now it seems blacks are into self-segregation.

You also mentioned the way whites (crazy-ass crackers) used to act back then. Funny thing is, I never did. Ever. You see I've never been one to join in with the crowd. What you're talking about happened during a different time. A time my wife had to live through, yet my nephew's gf never did. She was born after the civil rights era so she was never down for the struggle. She never marched. She was just taught to hate or decided it was what she wanted to do. Either or. My parents never really approved of my wife. They were bigots, but for some strange reason what they believed never rubbed off on me. My older brother told me once that blacks would eat me if given half a chance. I was only 5 at the time and he was 15, so who was I to question him. So yeah, some people thought blacks had tails.

Back then, over 50 years ago mind you, it was popular to be discriminatory towards blacks. Now it isn't. Now it's popular to be discriminatory towards Christians, gun-owners, people with strong religious beliefs, the Tea Party, Conservatives, and Republicans. Especially Republicans. Do you see a pattern here?

Ever get the feeling that Democrats are just using government and the media to discriminate against their political opposition? Democrats are telling everyone that we're terrorists for standing up for our rights. We see it just about every day. They're telling you the worst things imaginable about Republicans. They think you're stupid frankly. The things you guys are willing to believe is amazing and I have to ask, do you think all of this race-baiting and hatred is going to solve anything? Will it ever end or will the shoe be on the other foot and you folks make the same mistakes that whites did in our history? Maybe make up a few of your own? Are you looking for payback, or are you willing to turn the other cheek and move on? Are you going to allow Democrats to play you like they have all through our history?

These Are The Guys Behind The Trayvon Martin Scam........

riiiiiiiiight... an unarmed teen wasn't stalked and hunted down b/c of the color of their skin.

stay on topic....not everything is a forum for your derangement.

The jury said GZ was innocent, so why don't you fascist shits shut the hell up about it and leave the man be? Yeah, I know that you know better than the jury who had to hear both sides for months before making their minds up.

roflmao

LIstening to the two jurors who have spoken publically, they really did come off as kind of stupid.

Not to worry, GZ is going to be dead or in jail with the next few years, regardless.

[Wry Catcher]

Mr. sterling is a racist, as seen by his comments, is also is stupid because racism is steeped in ignorance. mr. sterling contributed to many liberal cause and spent lots of money helping Gray Davis and Bill Bradley get elected.

Sorry toots.


Sent from my iPad using an Android.

Sorry toots? You are rather strange. Many of the wealthy give to both sides, if one is going to give bribes it is generally good practice to hedge their bets. Thus, do you have evidence he gave to ONLY liberal causes and ONLY to Democrats?

You wouldn't lie by omission, would you?

Oh, so now it's a bribe.

Before this he was a wonderful person.

Not in my book. I consider any and all 'donations' to be self serving efforts to influence policy. Always have, and have made campaign finance reform a part of my signature for a long time. BTW, when Papageorgio defaulted to name calling he provided evidence he lied. Put that in your book next time you feel the need to defend him.

Will it ever end or will the shoe be on the other foot and you folks make the same mistakes that whites did in our history? Maybe make up a few of your own? Are you looking for payback, or are you willing to turn the other cheek and move on?

Before I answer any of your questions,:

1. Where did I say anything about "dumb ass crackers"? I do not refer to people using racial slurs. I am capable of stating a point without resorting to blatant ignorance.

2. Who is "you guys"? Are people individuals to you? Or do you assume because a person is black that "they must think, act or vote a certain way"?

3. What makes you think that I personally judge all white people based on what I experienced from almost 50 years ago? When I have very clearly stated that I did not then nor do I now. So what specifically are you assuming that I need to move on from?

4. How did you arrive at the conclusion that "more than half" of black people hate white people?

5. Numerically, how many black people do you actually know?


The reason I ask those questions is because the more that you post, the more I notice that you have a way of wording that makes it look like you believe that the black population thinks and acts like one single entity that is incapable of individual thought and action.

You sound as if you think I can speak for all black people, and that I MUST know what the black people who you THINK hate you are actually thinking themselves, which tells me that you may be incapable of speaking to black people as individuals because you don't believe that they are. Maybe that is your problem. Maybe your late sister in law had an issue with you for that reason, not the fact that you are white.

As far as your belief that Democrats are telling the black population that Republicans want to reinstitute slavery, someone would have to be ignorant to believe that the majority of the black population actually thinks that, and based on that hates white people. That is one of the most outlandish conspiracy theories that I have ever heard.

Part paranoia and part hysteria.

I do not have any personal interest in any "payback" because I am too busy enjoying what I have worked for, and I would say the same about my immediate family and circle of friends which is quite a few and for the most part BLACK. Some are business people, educators, work in the law field,city government, airline industries 2 are professional athletes, and a couple are even laborers. The younger ones are college students majoring in business and a couple go to nursing school, one younger one owns a botique in the San Fernando Valley so they are diverse.

My brother in law is married to a white female who has two children from a previous marriage and he has 4 from his last marriage. He is from a close knit family of 9 siblings, and at family gatherings you will see every ethnicity, race, religion, and political orientation present, and I have to say, that even around the immediate family, there is seldom if ever, any angry mention of white people specifically. Everyone is too busy living their lives to focus on such nonsense.

So no, contrary to what you believe, in a vast circle of friends and family who are predominately black, no one that I know sits around talking about "payback" and hating people over race.

Can you say the same about your own circle.

When you made the "You Guys" comment you lost the argument. That is a response that was used against Ross Perot. It's is a challenge meant to put someone on the defense. It's an indignant response that's way too easy to use when you feel like you want to control the discussion.

I imagine you don't sit around talking about getting some payback. But when you get the chance to vote for a tool like Obama I'm sure you jumped at the chance. There are different forms of protest, not all of them are violent.

The point I wanted to make is there is a mindset in the black community that is sort of an unwritten rule. I've lived with blacks since the 70s, and they bump into it constantly. "Stick to your own kind" comes up often. "Oh, you're one of those blacks" has come up more than once.

Look, the more I talk about this the more you'll call me a racist, so let's drop it. You'll never accept the truth anyway. Like my nephew says, those who patronize us deserve to be made fun of. Those who are critical of us only do it cuz we're black. It's a no-win situation.

Can you say the same about your own circle?

When you made the "You Guys" comment you lost the argument. That is a response that was used against Ross Perot. It's is a challenge meant to put someone on the defense. It's an indignant response that's way too easy to use when you feel like you want to control the discussion.

I imagine you don't sit around talking about getting some payback. But when you get the chance to vote for a tool like Obama I'm sure you jumped at the chance. There are different forms of protest, not all of them are violent.

The point I wanted to make is there is a mindset in the black community that is sort of an unwritten rule. I've lived with blacks since the 70s, and they bump into it constantly. "Stick to your own kind" comes up often. "Oh, you're one of those blacks" has come up more than once.

Look, the more I talk about this the more you'll call me a racist, so let's drop it. You'll never accept the truth anyway. Like my nephew says, those who patronize us deserve to be made fun of. Those who are critical of us only do it cuz we're black. It's a no-win situation.

Speaking for myself, I am not posting in this forum to "win" anything, and the reason that I asked what you meant by "you guys" was a legitimate question. I believe you are uncomfortable with the fact that I would not speak to you as being part of a collective, only as an individual. That defies a thought process that you have obviously spent a long time developing for the sake of your comfort zone.

When I address people in this forum, I don't refer to them as "you guys"......I refer to them as individuals and judge them solely on what they speak as individuals. I normally don't associate behaviors with political party loyalty or with race, until a persons reasoning is so immersed in race and politics like yours is that is no other way that they can think.

That being said, it is not incumbent upon me to attempt to speak with you sensibly as an individual if your mindset is that "the so called black community thinks the same"

My signature line I think, describes you perfectly.

Then why are you Democrats only now making a big deal out of him?

lol

I'm not a democrat and you obviously don't live in Southern California.

We've been trashing that prick for the last 20 years.

He gives bucks for cover and has received cover from the media in LA for years. I guarantee you that if his dollars went to Prop 8 or other right wing causes he would have been toast a long time ago...and he should have been but your bud's liked his bling too much. Shame on the LA liberals and their greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed.

I'm really not sure what you're complaining about?

Aren't you glad that this racist is FINALLY exposed for who and what he is?

Don't you want him to pay the price for his rancid and racist views?

I don't understand your statements...

What's the complaint here?

I'm happy he is exposed and I could not care less what lay in his path. He is a silly old man and many of us have one in our family. I think even President Obama has one in Jeremiah wright. I've read your posts here for a long time and I know that you're a liberal and I will never change your mind in regards to that but you seem like a very thoughtful person so let me ask you this; Mr. Sterling was recorded making disgusting hurtful and amazingly ignorant statements in his home, I think it was in his kitchen! Do you want to live in a society that can take everything away from you for one comment made while in the middle of a rant in your own ******* kitchen? How many racist words in anger have you let go of within the protective confines of your home? Be careful of creating a new society based on intolerance and payback.

Sterling was known about for a long long time, people chose to ignore him and his racism. He is not very well liked by anyone. Elgin Baylor and others know full well of his racism. As does the DOJ that sued him for housing discrimination.

Before I answer any of your questions,:

1. Where did I say anything about "dumb ass crackers"?

2. Who is "you guys"?

3. What makes you think that I personally judge all white people based on what I experienced from SOME almost 50 years ago? When I have very clearly stated that I did not then nor do I now.

4. How did you arrive at the conclusion that "more than half" of black people hate white people?

5. Numerically, how many black people do you actually know?

The reason I ask those questions is because the more that you post, the more I notice that you have a way of wording that makes it look like you believe that the black population thinks and acts like one single entity that is incapable of individual thought and action.

You sound as if you think I can speak for all black people, and that I MUST know what the black people who you THINK hate you are actually thinking themselves.

I do not have any personal interest in any "payback" because I am too busy enjoying what I have worked for, and I would say the same about my immediate family and circle of friends which is quite a few.

Well, as I stated before, I've never been one to follow the crowd. It's too easy to be a conformist.

High-Gravity is a perfect example of a non-conformist. He's a brother. He's a good soul. He's also unfortunately way too rare.

Problem being, I have been greatly disappointed in the past finding out that someone I admired turned out to be a racist. Seems that blacks today are living in the past, a past many of them never experienced. Picture a group almost identical to the way whites were back in the 60s. That is what we have to deal with. And why is that? Because it's easier to be a conformist.

No. Sterling is a registered Republican as the following article from the L.A. times dated April 28th states. And also, as the headline of the article states
"Does it Reall Matter?"

IMO not at all. There are jerkoffs in both parties, and no matter what his political loyalty is, he is first and foremost a businessman, and obviously not a very good one to make the comments that he allegedly made.

Lol, Sterling gives money to the Democrats, but is a registered Republican; who gives a **** if that makes him 'really' a Democrat or a Republican?

He is a businessman and they play all sides of any situation.

What is FACT is that he was a previously KNOWN RACIST and for some reason all this is now a big controversy when there are plenty of racists among sports team owners aside from him and we all know that if we are honest about it.

This is nothing more than political posturing and hypocrisy; i.e. just another day for libtard Nazis.

If you read what i posted, I stated that IMO it does not really matter if he is a democrat or republican. So what is your point?

You sure yap a lot for something that doesn't really matter to you...or so you say.

Seems I cant really hear you because all your posts keep getting in the way.
