If it was totally true and unfounded... Paul could have sued for libel

he didn't

Subsequently, Doc Rivers was hired...Paul canceled his visits.
He could sue the person who wrote this vague article claiming several league sources without actually naming those sources. You find me a direct quote and I will believe you.

Hypocritical Black Americans....can't get out of their own way and will pull all stops for their double standard.
Well isn't this interesting. But you won't find the PC police, the Progressive Puritans, who have just destroyed Donald Sterling and Brendan Eich, even mentioning this. How surprising is that?

Destroy?

Give me an NBA team, and force me to sell it so I can be "destroyed."

In a 1983 incident, prospective Clippers coaching candidate Rollie Massimino says that Sterling used the N-word in an impromptu interview at LAX (via Jeff Pearlman):
“Here’s this guy, and he has this blonde bimbo with him, they have a bottle of champagne, they’re tanked. And Don looks at me and he says, ‘I wanna know why you think you can coach these n*****s.’”

THat's great, but silver decision was not based on anything but the tape....he even stated that in the press conference:


The question:

Q: The word you used specifically was outrage. You said that you were personally outraged, yet many people believe that they are outraged that for years people have known that this man is a racist slumlord and the NBA hasn’t done anything until today. Can you please answer why.

Again, JUST TAKE A STAB... "Who benefits from completely fabricating CP3's comments?"

How about you address Snoop Dogg??? He's a racist, right? Everybody heard him make racial slurs...directly.
A conservative that loves to slander black people because of jealousy...

White and blacks make the same amount for the same job. Unless you think black people are stupid enough to work the same job for less pay???

and the solution by the left for blacks serving more time is to pass more laws and make harder punishments for people. More power by law enforcement promises more blacks (and whites) in jail.

don't want black people in jail? Fix black schools and get rid of all these unnecessary jobs.

The left tells us that employers will do anything to cut payroll (like move overseas) Then they tell us blacks make less than whites. But they can't explain why the unemployment rate for blacks is higher than for whites. They are obviously lying about something.

Pretty far reaching conclusion if you ask me.

Not defending Jay Z but exactly how is the 5 Percent Nation comparable to the KKK? The 5 Percent Nation never terrorized white americans. They never denied them the right to vote or own a gun. The 5 Percent Nation never burned down entire white communities. The 5 Percent Nation never tried to deny whites their civil rights. Other than racist undertones there is very little to compare.

I understand why men and women of colour feel discontent, little trust and confidence in our brethren. We prove time and time again how foolish, ignorant, coupled with being consumed with self righteousness sprinkled with entitlement.

Horrible on all levels-however the real issue sits on the shoulders of economical class.
