Between this craziness, the Bundy affair becoming all about race, and Sonia Sotomayor's hysterical dissent comparing banning racial preferences to the tyranny of a white majority, does Eric Holder still think we don't talk about race because of cowardice?

I agree

But that said, things are starting to look a LOT like that in some EU countries. I hope we stay ahead of the common sense curve on this

"Sterling's long-established pattern of bigotry and racist comments have not been a secret in the NBA," the statement said. "Yet until now, they have been tolerated and met with a gentle hand and a blind eye."
The groups want Silver to talk with them about diversifying the executive ranks of the NBA, similar to efforts in other sports.
You put your best talent on the court, but not necessarily in the front office? Are we talking affirmative action/quotas? :coffee:
Before Silver's announcement, the NAACP's Los Angeles chapter withdrew its decision to give Sterling a lifetime achievement award, and returned money he donated.
So, it's a long-established pattern, yet they want to give him your highest award? :suspicious:

Where did that first quote come from, 8? If it was the national office, your entire post is a non-sequitur. The national office is NOT the LA chapter office. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the chapter director got punked out behind closed doors by the national director....
