He always was an ungracious arrogant a-hole. If you follow his public statements for the last 40 some odd years, he always loves to play the victim. It’s all about taking for this selfish loser. No giving back. Just all about what society owes him.

I think Hank Aaron was a great baseball player...
He is apparently still angry about racist treatment he got while still playing baseball...I would never tell Mr. Aaron to “get over it”...However, I still get tired of listening to his complaints...
I don’t think Mr. Aaron ever tried to avoid taking political positions...
Another great Braves player was Chipper Jones...He spoke in favor of banning “assault weapons” several months ago...
Neither Jones nor Aaron will have any impact on what I think...
I will not praise Lebron James just because Mr. Aaron thinks that it is OK to disrespect the president if the latter is a Republican...
It would be easy for me to hold a grudge against ‘Black America’, over racist blacks I’ve dealt with over my life time, but I don’t do that because it would be unfair. There’s nothing special about Hank Aaron’s racist experiences. We’ve all had them, whites like myself included. Hank Aaron’s experiences aren’t any worse just because he was a famous major league baseball player. If he can’t look beyond his race or his personal bad experiences and reach out to the larger non-black population in a spirit of good will, then I have no respect for him.
