Looking for genuine discourse re: Donald Sterling/NBA

[b_line]

I guess I would rather see the free market punish the guy (by players agreeing to not play for his team, by fans not supporting his team or his other business interests) than the gestapo sweep in and lay the hammer down. There are societies currently and in history where people are/were unable to voice their opinion. Do you really want to become like them? And since when did America become a land where people were unable to have an opinion? Even a wrong one? (Disclaimer, I am not agreeing with what he said.)

The players, the other owners and the commissioner are a part of "the market" as much as the fans and Donald sterling are.

Are the players and other owners not allowed to have opinions either?

The nba as a whole stood to lose substantially more than many realize, as all six teams who played tonight were prepared to walk off the court during tipoff of each game. That would be a nightmare if the players just went and started a new league.

So you're taking away their rights, then. Good job. Sounds like you don't want them to know you think that way, too.

nah just syaing i have my opinion about that fact. for now i am still able to voice it.

but maybe in 30 years i might not be able

would you wanna lvie in a world where you CAN NOT voice your opinion in private or public?

 

[DutchJazzer]

Dutchbro, how old are you, bro? 15, bro? You have a very naive outlook.

there is no way that rights can be signed away.

so he joined nba so he should act a certain way behind closed doors in private.
aka never ever voice his opinion does not count.


dont know if i am saying this correctly might be my bad english

No where has Donald Sterling been restricted from voicing his opinion.

 

[VINYLONE]

What's ironic, dutchbro, is that you're a member of this message board which limits the **** out of one's god damn ability to post anything with a curse word in it. ****. And you know what happens if you circumvent the profanity filter? ****ing guess, bro?

Gold, Dutchy, gold!

No, you've made it pretty clear that you think you can say what you want whenever you want with no fear of reprisal when that has never been the case in American history.
