Michael Jordan: I was against all white people

So then post the links to the 'so much more that is going on' that you are asserting.

READ THE TRANSCRIPT. That's all you have to do. Read the transcript. All of it. All 149 pages. I am pretty sure that you have already been directed to do this once.
 
Ummmm in addition to her childhood she admitting using it as an adult and and in more recent years.

There is a difference here. Rather large actually.

And, the difference is, Paula Deen is white and Michael Jordan is black.

The Libbos will ALWAYS support a double standard.

If Jordan was white, he would be purdy much ****ed, by now.
 
In all fairness, though I didn't research this but have heard it from sources close to where Jordan grew up, in that area, you would have the KKK chapters sponsoring local little league teams. I can kind of understand the white resentment in his youth, I just can't understand the double standard.

I lived in the south at the same time, in Georgia. I can assure you, there were no KKK people hanging around little leaguers.

I can't understand his white resentment in his youth. In 1977 we 14/15 year olds weren't hanging around with Klansmen, and life for most of us was very good. I was blonde and pretty, and the captain of my school's football team (black) liked me. The black girls used to follow me to my locker and call me the "c" word. Should I have disliked black people in general because of that?

And I've already read it. Post the things going on that you are talking about.

Did you read the transcript of Bundy's interview?

Bull****. Does Michael Jordan still use the language? And before you say YES HE DOES!11!1, I want proof.

THAT is the difference - Paula Deen still uses it, Michael Jordan does not.

It's really not that hard, guys.

There is no double standard. Comparing someone's repudiated views from when they were a teenager to someone's "maybe" repudiated views from when they were an adult is not a valid comparison.

EDIT: What I should say is, "there may be a double standard to a point, but this is a piss-poor example of it."

What language? English? I'm pretty sure that Michael Jordan and Paula Deen both still use English.

Racial slurs, man. Stop being deliberately obtuse.
 
Because Donald Sterling didn't stick.

No, this thread was never about Donald Sterling. The OP simply said 'in light of the Donald Sterling scandal', didn't compare it to that. Stop being dishonest Kobie.
 
And I've already read it. Post the things going on that you are talking about.

Honestly, I doubt you've read the entire 149 page transcript. An hour ago, you didn't even know there was a case, and now you are saying you have read the entire thing in an hour?

No I didn't. I read the relevant part that Kobie posted. Should I also read the irrelevant (more irrelevant?) part?
 
Okay, and we care about what Paula Deen says.......why? She uses "racial slurs"?

What the hell ever happened to sticks and stones, and all that? BFD. We as a nation get way too invested in the words of people we don't even ****ing know about people we don't even ****ing know.

Maybe you oughta go research it?
 
Wow, it's almost like black people have lots of legitimate reasons to feel grievances over racial issues and white people have few, if any.

Wow, it's almost like black people want to be treated equal, yet they don't quite want to be treated equal.
