Yeah? You want people to have jobs and economic prosperity, Chuck? That’s wonderful. How many people do you employ?

He’s the guy who fired as spokesman for Weight Watchers (if memory serves) because, well, look at the pictures!

How does any of it affect you even in the tiniest little bit, Charles? You have your mansions and your NBA millions, and can just sit back and enjoy life. You should do that.

"...Nah, it really doesn't suck because of me. I'm not the reason I get taxed for nearly half of everything I make..."

Agreed it was a ludicrous statement.

By every metric, leftists destroy what is good and decrease the level of happiness in life.

If not for leftists and their violent pets, my life would almost be a utopia.

“I don’t think a fan has the right to come to the game and be abusive.”

I don’t think a player should go to the games and be abusive either. And if you had acted like an adult and not spit at anyone, the little girl you nailed for no reason wouldn’t have been harmed at all.

When Barley, like all other pro athletes, chose to step into the public eye as a player, did they really think they were paid such a ridiculous amount of money to play a game. If they did they are a bigger fools than anyone thought. His job was to execute in a contest so the fans would either like or hate him, but buy tickets and jerseys. He gave up his personal life when he inked the contract. He gave up his privacy and normalcy for the money when he was on court.

I see little reason for him to be here on these boards as he has nothing to offer humanity with his lack of capacity at intelligent thought. If all he can do as a human is spit on someone, and miss at that, then he is truly the beast he is being tagged with. And a really stupid one at that. What differentiates a man or woman from other animals is our ability to reasonable thought. He obviously lacks it. A productive adult shouldn’t have accomplished what he did and does and think apologizing for it is the answer. A practical adult wouldn’t have done it at all. He’s never grown up.

During the O administration I got very tired EVERY day of all the corruption and the daily insults to our Constitution and the EO against the people, the people’s rights.

Mr Barkley has no idea what damage O did to the American people and Constitution. Mr Barkley has nothing to compare to Obama term in office.

Is Barkley still in the prostitution business?

This chump wants to talk ethics, morality, and “humanity”?

Bite me Charles!
