EXCLUSIVE: Magic Johnson Suggests Donald Sterling Should Sell Clippers After Alleged Racist Remarks
KCAL-TV ^ | April 26, 2014 | Jim Hill

Posted on 04/27/2014 1:34:09 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

He’s been controversial for decades. Clippers owner Donald Sterling now faces more trouble — a nationwide firestorm over racist comments he allegedly made in a recorded conversation with his girlfriend.

Those alleged remarks by Sterling have caused uproar across the sports world. And perhaps the person most upset about the situation is Dodgers part owner and former Laker super star Magic Johnson himself who was mentioned, specifically, in the comments.

KCAL/CBS2 sports director Jim Hill sat down exclusively with Magic to discuss the remarks the Clippers owner allegedly made.

“I’m very disappointed, angry and upset,” said Johnson. “Let’s go back when I first got here in 1979. Dr. Buss took me to my first real party at Donald Sterling’s house in Malibu for his annual BBQ. Ever since then, since Dr. Buss introduced me to him at the time he bought the Clippers, we’ve been out, we’ve had lunch and even shared meals to talk about his team, so I thought we had a sort of a friendship, even though it may be a distant one.”(continued)

Irony is being a black civil rights group honoring a virulent white racist with a lifetime achievement award while sharing a bill with a man who ratted out the mob to a group accused of oppressing blacks by said civil rights groups.

Sell the tam to whom? Magic Johnson?

I haven’t watched the NBA since probably back in the 70’s.

These people are aliens to me. They might as well be from a different planet.

I don’t think it is a distraction. I think they slipped up. It may LEAD to something like martial law when the ferals riot, but I don’t think this was intentional. they just forgot liberal protocol and hosed it.

I remember some kind of scandal concerning AIDS and sleeping around with hundreds of women. No, that wasn’t “Magic” Johnson was it? Surely that should not disqualify him from owning the Dodgers? Sin as much as you want, no problem. But the second amendment? Big problem there.

Has Magic met Al Sharpton? What about Jesse Jackson?

Both have been quoted as having said far worse things but he has no issues with them?

My condolences on having missed Micheal Jordan’s run to fame.

A negro who used to play basketball till AIDS forced his retirement,
is now presuming to play PC Nazi by denying the Jew his 1st Amendment rights AND confiscating his business in favor of someone more Reich-friendly.

Is that about the size of it ?

That is not your decision ‘Magic’. You probably are hoping to buy the team yourself, hoping a case of white guilt will make the owner sell to you at a big discount ‘for the good of society’. You aren’t fooling anybody ‘Magic’. This is what Thought Police do.

Sterling was suing this girlfriend, and this was a tactic to get revenge on her part. Its just some dirt that went viral, not part of "The Plan."
