donald sterling is racist

 This isn’t anything new. One of the worst quotes I’ve ever read about him from a reporter was when he supposedly walked into the locker room after a game with 2 women and told them to "look at all that beautiful black meat" while the players were showering. 

He’s a disgusting human being.

I see no reason for this thread honestly. Everyone knows he’s racist and hates pregant women and poor families. There’s already been evidence shown in the past about how horrible of a human being he is. It hasn’t lead to backlash before, and it won’t now. Especially now that the Clippers are title contenders. Players want to win. Coaches want to win. A horrible owner won’t push people away. Especially when they’re already known for it.

 This just in…. Nevermind old news.  Where did you find those quotes I’d like to hear the audio?

He’s had a long history of racist behavior, and it hasn’t seemed to have affected the franchise’s ability to sign talent. I doubt this changes anything on that front.

Fans are resilient. A player can slam his pregnant girlfriend’s head on a staircase, threaten to kill a fan while shouting racist and homophobic slurs, or impregnate a 13-year-old girl; fans will defend these players as long on they’re playing well.

Nobody likes Donald Sterling, but the man could have been caught on video burning puppies while wearing a Nazi uniform with no significant hit as far as the team’s fan-support is concerned.

Hes like the modern day Calvin Candy from Django Unchained and the LA Clippers and Staples Center is his Candyland. Sterling doesnt care anyways he could probally buy tmz a 500 000 times. Pretty much what you would expect from a 150 year old jewish billionaire (not to affend any jewish people but Sterling grew up during terribly rascist times).

He is JEWISH so what can we expect?

 Why Donald? Why? As a long suffering Clippers fan throughout the years now more than ever isn’t the time to stir up drama while the Clips are in the playoffs. The last thing u want is for reporters to ask the Clips players and coaches about having a racist as their boss while their trying to put a team away. I have listened to the audio of this conversation and "the Donald" comes out as an insecure old man more than anything. Honestly, his girlfriend kept baiting him about the whole "black people" thing and the Donald just took the bait everytime. This man sounds like he’s in the early stages of dimentia doesn’t appear to be all there all the time.

goyim = non-Jews = cattle

shiksa = non-Jewish female = filthy whore 

shonde fer die goyim = giving God/Jews a bad name in front of the non-Jews/cattle

In a sentence: Sterling committed a shonde fer die goyim by talking about schvartzes with his shiksa girlfriend.

 Ari Emanuel, the top agent in Hollywood and inspiration for the Ari Gold character in Entourage, was putting together a movie about Navy Seals a few years ago. Somebody suggested Wesley Snipes. Ari said that was a stupid idea, because everybody knows blacks can’t swim. Look it up. 

The PC police that make 6 Holycau$t movies a year will never tell you about their own primative tribal attitudes toward tribal outsiders.

 RACHEL: Hollywood’s run by Jews. I was advised by an American agent when I was about 19 to change my surname. And I said “Why? Jews run Hollywood.” He said “Exactly.” He had a theory that all the executives think acting’s a job for shiksas.

 EMMA: Of all the self-loathing Jews in the world, the most self-loathing are the Hollywood Jews. They don’t want to see images of themselves on screen. That’s why Lauren Bacall had to hide her identity, and Winona Ryder changed her name from Horowitz.

 RACHEL: In some way acting is prostitution, and Hollywood Jews don’t want their own women to participate. Also, there’s an element of Portnoy’s Complaint — they all fancy Aryan blondes.

 Notice how Sterling tries to make his girlfriend feel like the bad person. Narcissists and collective narcissists like The Jewish Community never blame themselves for anything, always the victim, and nothing ever matters more than THEIR suffering, real or imagined.

Judaism breeds collective narcissists with indocrtination that Jews are more moral, smarter, more civilized, and on and on and on. Chosen shmozen.

Israel’s Chief Rabbi:

“Goyim were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world; only to serve the People of Israel,” he said during a public discussion of what kind of work non-Jews are allowed to perform on Shabbat.
“Why are gentiles needed? They will work, they will plow, they will reap. We will sit like an effendi and eat,” he said to some laughter.
“With gentiles, it will be like any person: They need to die, but God will give them longevity. Why? Imagine that one’s donkey would die, they’d lose their money. This is his servant. That’s why he gets a long life, to work well for this Jew,”

 Watch, the media will only refer to Sterling as "white", and never as Jewish. Just like The Wolf of Wall Street’s Jordan Belfort. When Sterling talks about his "culture" in the convo with his girlfriend, he’s talking about his Jewish culture, not some generic white culture.

 Man that girlfriend must of really had enough of it so record that and get those responses out of him.  In the court room we call that entrapment but not in the court room… Puuure gold.  

This is nothing new. Everybody knew this guy was a bigot.  Glad someone finally caught it on tape for the whole world to hear.  

This might be too soon to think about for those close to the situation.  But how are black clipper fans supposed to feel? What about the black clipper players and the black clipper coach?  I know how it would make me feel in my place of employment, I would quit. But I imagine no players, or fans or coaches will skip a beat on this.  People will still buy tickets and the players will continue to play making him rich.  The problem in society isn’t racism anymore ( though don’t get me wrong it does still exist) because for the most part the bigots have been weeded out by the masses who have progressed into accepting people for who they are.  The real problem is the value that people place on money. They place it above their own ethics, values and morales and as despicable as this act was…. He won’t face any consequences because the people still just want their money.  

Aside from the obvious reasons like actually winning championships this is the main reason LA will never be a Clipper town because their owner won’t help them.  

This is the guy you are lining the pockets of with endless amounts of money clippers fans and players…… Be proud of yourselves.

So I just saw a webpost/petition saying that Clippers games from here on out should be "Black Outs", in which only people of color can buy tickets and be allowed into games, with the purpose of scaring Sterling out of the building/to give him a heart attack…ROFL

 As we have said over and over again, this is expected behavior.  He is the REAL question we should be asking, which is worse? An 80 year old billionaire racist or a  Golddigger who dates/ associates with a guy like this?? Clearly she is beautiful on the outside, but how morallly bankrupt is she that she would be seen with him?? Everybody has got a price. I remember someone asking Stephen A Smith about a free agent signing with the Clips,  due to an incedent with Sterling, He said " the players could care less,show me the money". And he was 100 percent correct!

Just heard on the radio that Adam Silver will address the Media tonight here in Memphis..I’m sure he’ll talk about this matter..But there isnt much they can do but give him a hefty fine for detrimental comments..Becuz by laws protect them from forcing him to sell the team. without him doing anything criminal …..Sponsers and fans boycotting his product might force him to sell the team…

Read online where some are calling for Doc Rivers and the players to refuse to play for him…Not sure they’ll do that….I remember when those Marge Schottz racists comments came out over a decade ago,people expected the Reds players to quit the team..But All Star shortstop Byron Larking said the organization is much bigger then her ,it was there long before she became the owner and it’ll be there long after she’s gone and he wasnt playing for her…….

Have been calling him out for being a racist @sshole for years. Should not have been, yet am, a little surprised that this has been used as a platform to go on a deep, anti-semitic rant. Congrats, arambone. By the way, am a white, secular Jewish male. Who thinks that Donald Sterling is a despicable, racist and dislike his actions and practices greatly. Not to mention, know very many others who do not think like him who just so happen to be categorized as "Jewish".

Donald Sterling and some of the other figures, practices you have mentioned may believe certain things that are misinformed, ignorant and/or flat out racist. Just do not know why it has to be categorized to the point where you pretty much include everyone in their race or religion. That is pretty sad. Just throwing that out there, while still thinking Donald Sterling is a horrific owner as I have for a long time for so many reasons.

 Imagine the things running through everyone’s head that next time he goes to a Clipper game. If I were the players, I wouldn’t play the rest of the season and boycott to send a message. I understand that they worked their butts off for the chance to be here but Sterling is a poor excuse for a human being and I can’t see myself represent a franchise and it’s ownership that discriminates my race. I don’t even know HOW you can be racist and be an owner of a basketball team. Good thing Sterling showed me how. 

Also, I vote Sterling to sell his ownership as soon as possible.

I haven’t read all of these posts, but it has been widely known that he was a racist. It seems as if people forgot about the whole thing with him not wanting to rent to blacks and mexicans. Back when that was known, I could not believe people would want to play for him.

The problem is that there are only so many NBA jobs and millions of dollars at stake. Even if you are just one of the everyday workers like a janitor, this is a bad situation. These people are going to have to come to work.

If I’m a Clippers fan of any color I just stay home and watch the game on tv. If I’m a player I am publicly demanding a trade once the season is over if Sterling still owns the team. If I am Doc Rivers I am asking out. Not saying that is how it plays out because there is lots of money at stake, but sometimes you have to stand up for things that matter even if it costs you.

 The strange part about this whole story that’s going unreported is that STERLING’S GIRLFRIEND (then-girlfriend, actually) IS BLACK.  Definitely not saying that this makes him not racist, it’s just really bizarre that he’s dating a black girl (her name is V. Stiviano)…and then telling her not to broadcast that she associates with black people.  Also, she’s, like, 24.

 If you scrape the bottom of the barrel of any race or group, you’ll find racists. The fact that people went after him on here for his being Jewish and insinuating that’s how Jewish people are is an embarrassment to the education system. When you pit a minority group against.a minority group, the only people that lose are minorities. 

Being outraged at the situation is correct, warranted, and needed. But saying "The Jews are racist" (paraphrasing) IS racist. Genius. I’m sure we can be more constructive than that.

This is very sad, but Sterling doesn’t have it all. How can you be racist, but date a latino/black girl at the same time? 

This old man is just very confused… Sad and pathetic. What a bigot.

Some racists will have one or two none white friends, thinking that person isn’t the same and different from his/her race. Being likely a acttractive in her 20’s made it easier to look pass her skin color.

I had to read through a lot of racial BS in this thread just to find anything basketball related regarding the clippers.

Anyways….I have a theory. I think this will unite the team. The coach and guys that actually play will use it for motivation. This will make them angry and they’ll play with a much needed mean-streak. They are winning this championship for Donald Sterling. I doubt any of them even talk to him.

Agree or disagree? I just don’t think this makes them play worse.

..I thought. Some of these comments are very thought provoking and I’m happy to have the opportunity to read them. I don’t want the Clippers to play. In my opinion, making a positive stand against racism would be a much bigger accomplishment than beating the Warriors. The Clippers would be taking 2 steps backward by for fitting the series but would be leaping 10 steps forward by standing up for what is just. Imagine the impact it would have on the world if these professional athletes decided that equality is worth more than money and entertainment. Until someone big enough to take an unbiased yet positive stance against racism does so, issues like these will continue to occur. I am a black man who has love and respect for all other races.

That whole conversation just makes Sterling completely insane. Blatant racist remarks aside, he doesn’t even sound like he’s got the capacity to run an NBA team at this point, its like he can’t string consistent thoughts together. I think its fair to say just a suspension / fine would not be enough in the eyes of anyone associating with the NBA at the moment and people will only be happy when he is no longer part of the league.The Larry Bird comment from his girlfriend though? PAAARRR

 Rumours about Sterling’s unpleasant racial views have been an open secret for years, now it has really blown up. Lets first say that comments about Sterling being Jewish have no part to play in this investigation, we all know that lots of major businesses are run or were founded by Jewish people and I believe Adam Silver himself is jewish.

The problem here is that an owner has made comments that are directly offensive to an all time great player plus the majority of his players, coaching staff,fans and any reasonable person regardless of race. The pressure is growing on Donald Sterling from within the NBA dressing rooms, fans, media, the key could be what view do the other owners have as they effectively have Adam Silver answer to them. A lot of spotlight has also fallen on MJ as he is certainly the most famous team owner and again unfairly as he is a black american. The key will be what does Adam Silver think he can do and what will he do and how will other owners act. There are some very influential and high profile NBA owners who could well almost have to take sides.

Plus with all the media interest and comments by leading public figures like Rev Jackson, how long before this gets mentioned in one of the Houses on Capital Hill or even gets brought up at a senior political press conference maybe even with the President himself.

My own personal view of Sterling might have been that he was perhaps "generationally racist" he still maye used terms that were now considered inappropriate but didn’t realise the offence they might cause. Now I realise that was a far too generous view to take on someone who is clearly not a nice person and has biggoted views.

As you all probably know I’m UK based. Back in 1991 a former football club owner called Ron Noades who only died last year created a media storm when he said the following "The black players at this club lend the side a lot of skill and flair, but you also need white players in there to balance things up and give the team some brains and common sense". Noades was roundly condemned in the media and several of the team’s top 3 players who were either black or mixed race left the team within a year via transfers they probably requested. 

The team has never reached the heights it was at when Noades made these comments although he continued to be the owner until 1998 when he sold up and brought another club which he amazingly coached to promotion despite no coaching or playing experience.

 Rumours about Sterling’s unpleasant racial views have been an open secret for years, now it has really blown up. Lets first say that comments about Sterling being Jewish have no part to play in this investigation, we all know that lots of major businesses are run or were founded by Jewish people and I believe Adam Silver himself is jewish.

The problem here is that an owner has made comments that are directly offensive to an all time great player plus the majority of his players, coaching staff,fans and any reasonable person regardless of race. The pressure is growing on Donald Sterling from within the NBA dressing rooms, fans, media, the key could be what view do the other owners have as they effectively have Adam Silver answer to them. A lot of spotlight has also fallen on MJ as he is certainly the most famous team owner and again unfairly as he is a black american. The key will be what does Adam Silver think he can do and what will he do and how will other owners act. There are some very influential and high profile NBA owners who could well almost have to take sides.

This is the Michael Jackson video for the song They Don’t Care About Us: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNJL6nfu__Q

 This is Jewish chess legend Bobby Fischer, saying that this MJ song is what brought on the wrath of the Hollywood mafia, because Michael included the lyrics "Jew me do me everybody sue me": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5imiHYoBx4

Bobby Fischer and Michael Jackson both died shortly after.

TMZ, Jewish owned, edited out part of the conversation. Just like I was saying: Donald Sterling: It’s the world! You go to Israel, the blacks are just treated like dogs. V. Stiviano: So do you have to treat them like that too? DS: The white Jews, there’s white Jews and black Jews, do you understand? V: And are the black Jews less than the white Jews? DS: A hundred percent, fifty, a hundred percent. V: And is that right? DS: It isn’t a question – we don’t evaluate what’s right and wrong, we live in a society. We live in a culture. We have to live within that culture. http://deadspin.com/exclusive-the-extended-donald-sterling-tape-1568291249?utm_campaign=socialflow_deadspin_twitter&utm_source=deadspin_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow

 Bill Simmons made a good point last night. David Stern nixed the Chris Paul to Lakers trade, while pushing Chris Paul to Sterling. They call that meritocracy, like Silver inheriting the NBA.

 espn still not covering the existence of the missing 6 minutes from the Sterling audio tape.

The Clippers players need listen to the rest of the tape, then protest and sit out at least one game to make a huge statement and force the national conversation that is long overdue and simply will be buried by the media and political and wall street overlords.

Even if they sit one game and then try to win the series, it will be impossible for the media to ignore this high profile and righteous action, and more of the country will hear the full tape.

 Silver’s plan to raise the NBA minimum age to 20 reaks of the exact same plantation mentality. A big gift to the NCAA and the NBA’s media partners like Sumner Redstone and Les Moonves of CBS and Bob Iger of Disney/ESPN/ABC.

(Me at times I can be an extremist in a sitaution of expressing my emotions when I’m fed up but I’m trying to think logical about it all.) If I were in the situation of an active Clippers player I’m going to play and let it be known “I am playing for myself, my family, my friends, my city, my fans, and that I will not sell them short of what they all wanted to see me achieve from Day 1, whether a stand must be made or not. I know my self worth and integrity to myself as a man first and foremost.”
That would be my response in an interview setting.

Now did I handle the situation accordingly in the public eye? If so, This is all that matters most!

BTW I say racist jokes whether the person is purple, blue, green etc. but it does not make me racist as a person because it’s NOT in my heart.

Ugly Truth Behind Donald Sterling’s Racist Rant http://blogs.forward.com/forward-thinking/197236/ugly-truth-behind-donald-sterlings-racist-rant/ 

"My initial reaction was outrage and disgust. How dare this despicable human being lie about his fellow Jews and Israeli culture to hoodwink his girlfriend into believing that it is acceptable to mistreat black people? I was outraged. After all, black Jews are obviously not treated like dogs. White Jews do not really think that black Jews are less than white Jews. Preposterous! The nerve of that man! Then I realized that, while Sterling’s choice of words was inelegant and imprecise, he wasn’t lying. Too often, white Jews do treat black Jews poorly. We do have a bit of a race problem in our communities." Read more: http://blogs.forward.com/forward-thinking/197236/ugly-truth-behind-donald-sterlings-racist-rant/#ixzz30D3zJ8GG

Donald Sterling contacted his ex-girlfriend Sunday and asked her flatly, "How can we make this go away?" … sources connected with Sterling tell TMZ Sports. Our sources say … Sterling is keenly aware V. Stiviano is in possession of more than 100 hours of recordings … some of which are extremely damaging to Sterling’s reputation. Our sources say Stiviano told Sterling to call her lawyer … and thereby opened the door to settlement discussions. It’s obvious the incentive for Sterling is to make sure the rest of the tapes never see the light of day.

Jones continued:

“When we start looking at all these people in these lists who are dying as an economic byproduct of the people like Donald Sterling and you now have a problem because, oh my God, he said something that intimated that he doesn’t respect his players? I’m calling you out as a fraud.”
