Kevin Durant - Racist Remarks on Hayward....surprised...

[Utesnjazz]

Durant is pretty smart.......for a Black guy.




Your awesome I love the response. The reality is that it is ok for anyone to attack white males, but heaven forbid we say anything back. Racism hardly exists in the USA. I think "culturelism" does and there is nothing wrong with not liking a certain culture and not wanting it to invade the culture that we have. Far to many people get racism mixed with not liking how people act.

racism = prejudice + power

If Gordon and Kevin were good friends

They held a man-hug for a good 5-10 seconds at the end of one of the games. Plus theyve done all the USA stuff together. They are at very least past acquaintances

It was a joke. We should laugh.

Now, if it had been a white guy making a joke about a black guy of course that would be an entirely different matter.

Exactly. Damn, this country has become so PC. Nowadays I wonder if that movie "White Men Can't Jump" would even get made. Or how about that basketball scene in the old "Airplane" movie? People just need to lighten up. It was actually a compliment by Durant.

No. Racism is believing that people's characteristics are determined by their "race". It is a question of intent and degree. Had Durant meant it as "white people shouldn't be allowed in the NBA due to their inferior athleticism" then it would have been racist and unacceptable, because the brown-ness of his face doesn't give him moral immunity. As it stood, it was a tongue in cheek play on the stereotypes thrown in a friendly manner at a colleague.

My god people are offended so easily. KD should be able to say "Hayward is athletic for a cracker" without any scrutiny. Grow some balls people.

I agree.
I also think Hayward should be able to say Roy hibbert is not very athletic for a black guy without people getting offended.

I bet people would get offended by that comment though.

I'd love this post if I could.

I'm white, can't jump high, not a very good dancer, and my penis is average sized

So how do you compare to our favorite flasher, Trey Burke?

 

[Miggs]

...and my penis is average sized

That means it's a little small.

 

[fishonjazz]

That means it's a little small.

I was actually lying about it being average though.
And lying about my lack of dancing skills

Never had the pleasure of viewing it

Power is not a necessary element of racism. I cannot understand what you think you are accomplishing by adding that in.
