Atlanta Hawks owner sells team over his own e-mail
2014-09-08
[Breitbart] On Sunday, Atlanta Hawks Controlling Owner Bruce Levenson announced that he will sell his interest in the team after self-reporting an "offensive" email from 2012 in which he said that white fans may be scared of black fans.
Appears the neighborhood failed to improve in the subsequent two years. Time to blame his personal bias, hip hop, white people, and move on.

#8  At the mercy of bloodthirsty buyers,
Brer Bruce has to sell his high flyers:
"I've got Sterling's disease,
So take my Hawks... please.
Just don't throw me into those briars!"

#6  Kareem A-J wrote an intesting Op-Ed on this. He said tell Michael, it was only business.

#4  I don't believe black fans were scaring off white fans in Atlanta. Living there myself I know if that too be true a white person would never be able too leave their house.

#3  Sounds to me like he wanted to offload the Hawks and needed a pretext. You don't want to appear to be too willing to sell; people start to wonder what's wrong with what you're selling.

#2  "Too many are predatory, feral animals." Admitting that is soooo un-PC.

#1  Somebody must have tried to blackmail/extort him, and he told them to kiss his ass - and fell on his own sword.

I'm a white American, who happened to be married to a black woman for seven years (we got married in 1989, in Florissant, Missouri, about two miles north of Ferguson). As a US Army Officer, I served under two black company commanders, a black Brigade Commander, and a black Division Commander. As an Infantry Training Company Commander, my First Sergeant, my Executive Officer, my Supply Sergeant, and my Senior Drill Sergeant were all black. I was proud to work with them all.

With all that said, in America today, I wouldn't be caught dead (at least, not more than once) anywhere near any place at which a significant number of blacks congregate in the streets, or out in public. Too many are predatory, feral animals. There are many upstanding, hard-working blacks who deserve my respect - and none of them are out in the streets with the feral animals.

There is a cold wind blowing across America, leading eventually to an endpoint that is not going to be pretty.
