When did it become a crime to be an idiot?

Why aren’t most Democrats locked-up?

In other words, eliminate union restrictions, wage controls, occupational and business licensure, and other anti-free market restrictions. Make opportunity depend on one's productivity.

More than fifty years ago the Washington Redskins had an owner, George Preston Marshall, who refused to hire black players despite every other team acquiring good black players.....and improving their teams. Marshall’s team suffered as a result. So Redskins fans were forced to suffer through many losing seasons. Marshall eventually relented under pressure from the Kennedy Justice department. Racism was bad not just because blind racism was immoral...in Marshall’s case it was stupid.

The reality is that ‘racism’ only applies to whites and punitively so. This is not now nor has it ever been about fairness or ‘equality’. It is about punishing whites and garnering power. This will only go downhill from here and it will get much worse unless we make it stop.

If whites would stand up as whites it could be stopped. I just don’t understand how so many whites act indifferent about it or even act like they and their families somehow deserve it.

This is why hockey is the best sport:

You have to understand that black players really are a tiny minority in hockey, and racism is much more of a reality than a perception. This guy P.K. Subban -- who plays for Montreal and is one of the top defensemen in the National Hockey League -- has a great perspective.

Classic quote (they were talking about an incident in which a fan threw a banana at the player): "I'd probably just pick it up and eat it."

If everyone were to be honest. I don't think it's about the actual color of skin. I run away from white people who want to act thuggish. I always have. Nice, normal, rational people of any color are welcome in my world.

But if we object to a "culture" be it healthy or not we are labeled racist. I would not be comfortable around skinheads either. I don't care if someone is gay, but I will not take part in that "culture". I hate drugs, I stay away from that "culture".

Which brings me to a question or observation. Why do deviant people who do not value my opinion and in fact say I can't have an opinion demand that I validate their feelings? Why do they care what I think? If I am just an old idiot, why do they care that I detest their piercings and Tattoo's? It's not like I say anything to them about it. I don't say anything to gays about their life style. So why do they demand I condone their behavior? Why?

“People with limited thinking ability might conclude that Sterling is a racist in his private life but a nice card-carrying liberal in his public life”

I hate to disagree with Mr.Williams but any normal person
with normal “thinking ability” would come to the same
conclusion and that the people who are accusing Sterling of
being a racist are racists themselves. The high amount he
pays for his 85% black team is no big deal because he makes
a lot more than that off of them.
What a person with “limited thinking ability” would come up
with is that white employers who hire or employ black
people are glorified slave owners and sense the coach is
black also then he is a black cracker.

Minorities and less preferred people always do better when there are open markets instead of regulated markets.

Sorry, but Williams is just wrong here, at least in the short run.

12% of Harvard's admitted students are black. Don't know how many would get in if the admissions weren't regulated, but it would be a lot fewer.

Whether this favoritism really helps them to "do better" in their life as a whole is another question entirely, but there's no question it helps them to get into Harvard.
