You may remember Donald Sterling. He was the owner of the Los Angeles
Clippers. In 2014 he was taped without
his knowledge making racial slurs against African Americans. These were not public statements. These were statements made during an argument
with his girlfriend. When the tape got
out it was labeled “scandalous”.
Sterling was fined $2.5 million dollars and ejected from professional
basketball forever. Wow.
Donald Trump can stand at a public podium, covered by all available
news sources, and intentionally make racial slurs, make slurs against women,
make slurs against the disabled, etc. He
is not fined. He is not banished from
politics. He is selected as the
Republican nominee for President of the United States.
Times change. Do
values?
