Racist Owner Dem Donor
For some strange reason it is not being widely reported in the old media that Donald Sterling, the owner of the NBA Los Angeles Clippers whose racist remarks were secretly recorded by an angry girlfriend, was a supporter of Democrats and leftist causes.
Why would a racist support Democrats and leftist causes?
Well racists want gun control. Racists want blacks to have easy access to abortions. Racists want to keep blacks illiterate in failing schools.
Racists don’t want to associate with blacks unless they really, really have to.
All these are causes supported by the left and opposed by right-thinking people.
Let’s never forget that Jim Crow was government policy instituted by laws that imposed strict regulation on business. It was never something a free-market libertarian could imagine supporting.
And a final point regarding the lynch-mob hate directed at Sterling: technology is going to soon make a whole lot of our thoughts and words transparent. If we don’t start practicing mercy and forgiveness for general human stupidity things are going to get pretty unpleasant for everybody.
Wayne Perryman, an inner city minister in Seattle and the author of Unfounded Loyalty, in an editorial circulating on the Internet (Feb. 2004):
“Most people are either a Democrat by design, or a Democrat by deception. That is either they were well aware the racist history of the Democrat Party and still chose to be Democrat, or they were deceived into thinking that the Democratic Party is a party that sincerely cared about Black people.”
Well, neither the Daily Times or the Philadelphia Inquirer mentioned that outed racist Donald Sterling was a Democrat,. I think the movers and shakers at those papers were and are still being deceived into thinking that the Democratic Party sincerely cares about black people,
I also think their liking the adopting Liberal nomenclature for themselves is really stupid. Both Joe Stalin and Adolf Hitler were liberals.
