I thinking banning him for life from the NBA is the appropriate response. I'll agree anything other than that goes overboard. But...keeping him around as an owner would be BAD for the NBA. Who would play for him knowing who this guy is, would you?
Play for him? No. I wouldn't play for any of the teams and further I wouldn't attend any of most professional sports games of any sort. People are getting too wrapped up in the games and are doing really stupid stuff after the game ends.
I am more concerned that the TSA is now authorized and encouraged to go around to any business on airport property and subject you and your vehicle to a TSA search. Sitting at your desk doing your job and TSA can come and take you out for a search. What's the point? Certainly there are things at these businesses that would never be allowed onto a plane, so why search a person when tools and such that could be harmful are accessible to them to carry out their jobs?
Some racist, rich, old man that has gone 80 years being the same person he's always been and suddenly has the rage of the country after a whore leads him on in a private conversation...I'd say his ego and this wench is pretty good punishment. He will have lost most any friend he ever had, nobody will want to be around him. He will die the same as any of us and at 80, that isn't too far off for him.
I just can't find huge anger over the hurtful words of an old man-- disgust, yes. Words can't do to me or others what our government is trying to do to us all and it's a helluva alot more harmful and dangerous than ugly, hurtful words.
