Why not such an outrage about Louis Farrakhan and such others?
Because, JDTulane said it best, "bad things happen to bad people." Farrakhan, and others like him, aren't "bad people" in the eyes of JD and other liberals. Bad people are 80 year old billionaires that are dating black girls, but when asked not to hang out with black guys at the game, these bad people are condemned racists. Oh, and Republican too. Democrats can't be racist, or bad.

Why are you putting words into my mouth and making these gross assumptions as to how I feel about the situation? I simply said that this was karma for a douchebag doing/saying a douchey thing.

You're either for equality, REAL equality, or you're against it. I didn't put words in your mouth, I explained your definition of equality.

Except that you did...
I still don't understand where I don't support equality?

Where's the Karma for this man?
Irrelevance is all the karma he needs. I only know of one black person who's listened to Farrakhan. Anything he says is like a tree falling in the forest.

Whether or not that is true, it's not the crux of the matter?
Where is CNN's full coverage. Where is ESPN? Where is the national outrage.
Acknowledge the double standard. Acknowledge it as a cause of more racism. Stop making excuses for "your side."

What excuses? Nobody even knows Farrakhan is still alive. Nobody likes Al or Jesse. I'm pretty sure if Sterling was a non-NBA owner and just in real estate, nobody outside of LA would've known this happened. TMZ would've never paid for the tapes.
National Outrage against Farrakhan would have no affect on him. He'd still have his small group of followers.
If Magic Johnson had come out and said something like, "I don't want you to publicly associate with white people" as the owner of the Dodgers (the inverse of the Clippers), he would've been flayed in the media.

Like the way the media flayed that NBA player for saying we need a Black only NBA?

What is YOUR definition of equality? Chime in if you'd like, Memphis.

It is absolutely absurd that you want to put Sterling on a higher plane than Farakahn. Give me a break.
Look. There is nothing you can say to defend it. Acknowledge the obscene double standard that blacks enjoy in the pathetic little race game we all love to play. Just do it. You know it's there. You know what I am talking about is valid. Stop making excuses. The black community is surrounded by racist public figures that say racist things all the time in the public forum and they are celebrated for doing so.
I commend you for agreeing that Sterling should not have lost his property, but you need to take it a step further.

So why doesn't Sterling, a less known man, get the same "karma?"

What player? Larry Johnson? He hasn't been a player for 13 years. He's irrelevant and he's still getting flayed by papers across the country. He's been criticized for it on all of my sports radio and ESPN looks.
