I never said Barry was involved in racism, but I find it interesting that this youtube report has triggered such defensiveness.
My only intent was to publish information that, frankly, I had never suspected to be possible. I was shocked by the lack of any shame for being racist. At least in America the racists hide themselves behind labels like "birther," or "pro-Arizona immigration schemer." No one in any American stadium could possibly get away without a severe censoring if they showed such brazen hate-speech. Not that hypocrisy is a better packaging of racism, but at least American racism in public has a healthy regard for the opinions of the majority. If someone threw a banana at an African-American sport figure and yelled out "monkey," he might not get out of the stands alive. Just sayin'!
