It would have removed racism from the equation. So...yeah.

Who was the old racist dude who owned a basketball team(forgive me, not a sports fan) and said some racist stuff and got (rightly) raked over the coals for it?

Had he been a gay asian man would it have been OK? The media seems to think so.

Yes, political incorrectness! Glad you are with me in not caring about being PC. George proves liberals don't have to be PC and he's an old man so might as well say whats on your mind while still on Earth, thank you for joining me in applauding him

So...if calling Justice Thomas a "clown in blackface" isn't racist, I imagine the same will be said about calling President Obama a "clown in blackface"? Can't think of many bigger clowns in DC. Well, other than maybe Bernie Sanders or Lizzie Cherokee Warren.

He definitely won't pay a price for it. 1, he's gay. 2, hes a liberal. 3, the target is a republican. 4, the media and the left view just about all blacks who dare not fall in line as Uncle Toms anyways.

More double standards from the left and the media. This clown Takei is only famous or "relevant" anymore because he's a homosexual. If he wasn't, the last time we would've ever heard a thing about him would've been his last Star Trek movie. He wont lose anything over this but if a Republican said anything similar, theyd be vilified and destroyed. To the left/media, it's okay to be racist or whatever if you are on the right side and pick the right targets. Just look at how they are destroying Trump, yet this guy will get a pass. Same pass Eva Longoria get's after bringing up Hitler when talking about Trump recently.
What Takei said was dumb and racist.

Criticize Clarence Thomas without discussing his skin color. It's very simple.

Of course he did, but only after the outrage. Never thought to put a filter on it before saying those remarks, though, did he? Wonder how he'd feel if he was called a gay slur? Not too good, I imagine.

This brother is not upset at Takei at all. I actually laughed my behind off when I heard those comments about him, and many other blacks I know did the same thing. That fool is a disgrace to Thurgood Marshall, and is a hypocritical token!!
