A hair’s width away from having thought police.

I want every black in the NBA who is doing to back flips and condemning the man for speaking freely in his own home to answer this question honestly: have you ever use the words “honky” or “whitey” or had a conversation about “those white people?” If so, then you should quit the NBA IMMEDIATELY. If Sterling is racist then so are you.

In this country it is not permitted to say something offensive about African Americans, at least not if you have money or a job that you may be deprived of. The next step will be prison terms for saying things offensive to black people, as interpreted by them or by the media (an innocent remark would be actionable if a derogatory meaning could be somehow squeezed out of it).

But people will still be free to say insulting things about white Americans and other groups. Maybe not about gays.
