Not far from my front door, grown black men in short pants are running up and down a cement basketball court. Gleefully, they call out to each other, “Hey, nigger,” emulating their big brothers in the NBA. Never mind that they don’t know the distinction between Benghazi and Ben Franklin. Too busy to learn, they are clutching in their angrily inflamed but largely unused minds the full script of the private telephone conversation Donny Sterling was tricked into by his low-life ho’ girlfriend. She is invulnerable to public scorn. You see, she packs the politically correct liberal cultural blend, black, Mexican, ho – plus she gamed a white guy.
The well-rehearsed faux outrage from the professional basketball players — who routinely label each other “nigger” for kicks, because they don’t know better — is an instructive outlier scene from professional racists that none of us should live to see repeated. The silly, attention-seeking, grossly overreacting NBA commissioner who meted out the death penalty to Mr. Sterling should be laughed back into oblivion until he recants.
None of that distresses me as much as this week’s irresponsible behavior of left-wing “charitable” organizations who say they are rejecting Mr. Sterling’s incredibly generous contributions to their needy coffers.
How do you say juvenile hypocrite?
The cerebrally crippled arrogant academics over at UCLA who – to the whooping cheers of their elite left-wing colleagues – gallantly announced they were rejecting Mr. Sterling’s $3 million gift for kidney research, should be forced to replace the $3 million from their own accounts. Immediately.
As normative Americans know, meticulous-minded beneficiaries of this vital research will inquire, “This was not paid for by a racist, was it?”
Over at www.patterico.com this morning, a listing was carried of charities that have and have not turned away Sterling money. It was revelatory.
Every rednecked liberal racist who pranced in public this week should be redfaced over the results.
According to Patterico’s Pontifications,
– A Place Called Home — a program for high-risk teens — got a $100,000 donation from Sterling, doled out in $10K yearly installments. The charity has received $30K, which it will NOT return, but it is REJECTING the $70K balance.
– Temple of the Arts — It’s keeping Sterling’s $10K donation.
– L.A. Union Rescue Mission — It’s been receiving $10K a year. They’re keeping the cash, telling TMZ, “We take money from all kinds of bad people all the time.”
– Goodwill of So. Cal. — It got a $100,000 donation from Sterling, doled out over 10 years. It has received $20K so far and it’s giving all the money back and not accepting the balance.
– American Diabetes Assn. — Sterling donated $25K. It’s keeping the loot, telling us, “The sad reality is that without donations like Mr. Sterling’s, we can’t help the people that we do.”
Any person who donates a single dollar to the groups that threw back Sterling charity is a fool.
