Jazz ban 2nd fan for calling Westbrook "boy"

[Stoked]

In all fairness, that's what the people ripping on Eenie are doing.
My point is not who is "right" or "wrong", just that it boils down to the same thing.

Show me where someone else is speaking for a community they are not a part of. If you do I’ll tell them the same thing.

Within any demographic there are a variety of opinions and experiences, people really are just speaking for themselves - maybe we could just leave it at that? It really irks me when folks seem to speak as if there's uniformity among any particular group, whether it be by race, ethnicity, education, income, profession etc. - generally going to be differences of opinion

 

[moevillini]

and if folks are sharing a personal experience, they're only speaking for themselves anyhow

Videos going around twitter of Griffin getting into it with a white fab who called him “boy” in Minny and Siakam just got called the N word after a free throw in OKC by a woman.

Oh Utah, why do you have to spread your hate?

Personally I hope to see the Jazz take the point on this issue for the league and lead a charge to change the culture at games.

Yeah, hopefully it is clear my comment was in jest.

I mean, have you ever been to a BYU-Utah game?

Nope, neither team is important to me. But if you mean hate exists at games you’re right.

 

[Stoked]

Yeah, hopefully it is clear my comment was in jest.

It was. To me at least.

 

[carolinajazz]

They are ripping on me, for making a joke that was misinterpreted and now I have to continually defend myself because I am not a racist.

Same boat that I'm in!

 

[Gameface]

Damn, EM, you just got put in the same boat as carolinajazz. I'd be looking for a liferaft. And if I couldn't find one I'd just start drinking seawater.
