Charles Barkley: predictably unpredictable.

[colorado tanker]

So, will the race baiters jump on Sir Charles? He’s a guy who can definitely take the heat - and he has access to media.

[griswold3]

uhm.. I’m speechless.

[BenLurkin]

"it gives every white person and black person who is racist a platform to vent their ignorance"

[al baby]

Im not Sir Charles is pretty much of a black white guy in many of his believes

[FlingWingFlyer]

I don’t know what it is about Barkley but I have not watched one Suns game since they traded him. They ticked me off! I like the guy.

[MaxMax]

there was racial profiling, no question about it.

Dang, he almost had me.

No Charles, there was Criminal Profiling! Big Difference, Idiot.

[LRoggy]

And could squash the race-baiters like a bug too . . .

[cdcdawg]

That might be the sanest thing Barkley has ever said. He is always one for surprises, but it’s usually a matter of how far off into the deep end he goes. Not this time.

[bicyclerepair]

He has to appease the members of the species that look like him.

After watching a clip of Zimmerman walking Sanford PD through his actions that night, sans lawyer, I'd say Zimmerman is pretty harmless. It's also clear, from his artlessness (verging on naivete), why Sanford PD declined to charge him with a crime. Here's the 15 minute Youtube clip. At least before the community activists and media outlets got involved.

Never thought I’d say it but we need more Charles!

[GotMojo]

where’s little man Bob Costas.....now afraid to speak up?

[Uncle Chip]

He’ll be on the talking tour sometime soon

Charles Barkley is a reprehensible POS. Always has been and he remains one now.

Every time I hear the word “conservative,” it makes me sick to my stomach

there was racial profiling, no question about it.

I had to stop by a Wal-Mart yesterday and encountered two blacks on separate occasions in the store....yeah, I profiled and was ahem, alert.

[SE Mom]

See. .the world really HAS turned upside down. I disagree with Dr. Ben Carson and agree with Charles Barkley.

[Alberta's Child]

The sanest thing Barkley ever said was when he was considering a run for the governor's office in his home state (it may have been Arizona at the time). He said one of his campaign promises was that as governor he would schedule a "Justice Week" every year -- during which all of the mutants on death row would be executed in rapid succession.

ROFL.

The Round Mound of Rebound will be under constant threat now.
