just listened to the whole thing...really odd, baiting, conversation that we didn't get the beginning of
really it almost sounds like she started using skin tone to describe characters in their conversation and he rolled with it
and ultimately he was just pissed off that she was being a whore on instagram

Well at least I know there are a couple members that see this situation a little differently than the public.
I just feel a lot of people are judging the situation without forming their own opinion based on the evidence and they are only mirroring what other people have said. I bet you snoop didn't even listen to the entire audio clip before he made his judgement.
I'm not saying Sterling is not a racist, i'm just saying based on the audio clip, it doesn't seem to be as black and white as everyone in the public is making it out to be (pun somewhat intended).
---
Just based on the audio clip, it seems like the girlfriend took a picture with Magic Johnson and posted it to Instagram and that is one of the pictures Sterling was referring to. In regards to the gf being a "whore", I'm not sure about the other pictures as I haven't done any more research on the topic.

I have been a HUGE NBA fan for more than 20 years.... during that ENTIRE period it has always been understand that Donald Sterling is a flagrant racist. ALWAYS. None of this is a surprise. It's just a surprise it took THIS to prompt action from the league office.
I get the sense that the women on the tape was baiting him and had been coached by somebody with how to do it to achieve certain reactions... Sterling should have been smarter than to take it but frankly I am glad he did because maybe now the league can finally rid themselves of this clown.
NBA-ownership is not a club he is qualified to be a part of.

The best part is that she can fuck black guys, just not post instagrams with them

After listening to the actual conversation that was recorded (who records conversations unless she is goating him) I understand:
1. she sleeps around with people
2. he doesn't want her broadcasting it or bringing those she has sex with to the games
3. sound like she usually sleeps with black people so he is just making a general statement about people she sleeps with (until the end about magic johnson)
At first, with all this media attention and snoop posting, I was all on that bandwagon of this guy is a crazy, rich, white racist guy (I'm white).
Now hearing the conversation, that bitch twists the conversation and continually makes it about skin color when it appears to be about her not bringing people she has sex with to games and not posting about it on instagram or publicizing it.
I am not saying he isn't racist (especially reading about his rental issues) but I am thinking this is wayyyy blown out of proportion.

Everyone has their own personal beliefs and opinion...as long as you keep it private then I have no problems with it.
In this case...for the sake of the PR disaster...NBA should get rid of him.

Isn't Magic HIV+.....?
If she sleeps with Magic and he is HIV+ Sterling would have a legit reason to be concerned. Posted via RS Mobile |

She isn't sleeping with him.
Medically, Magic's HIV is effectively "dormant..." he still takes a heavy cocktail of drugs everyday to keep the disease hammered into a coma-type state.

Wtf?
Is that okay? Or just more ignorance? | Honestly, do the 'racial slurs,' "white bread," or "cracker," truly hurt a white person?
Maybe, but more often no.
They don't hurt because they aren't routed in an era of oppression, like the n word for people of African descent, the c word for people of Asian descent, the c word for people of Native descent, etc. The route in oppression is the source of racial slurs power, and white people have never really experienced oppression (for racial reasons). As a result, the more powerful racial slurs that exist for white people are pretty meh. I'd laugh if I were called "white bread."
Is it therefore okay to use these racial slurs against white people? In principle, no. But in practice, I don't know whether it matters.

It is always ok for a non-white person to be racist but if you're white and racist you are literally Hitler

The only time it's okay to be racist is if it's against your own race.
