Agreed. Unfortunately it degrades Free Republic with such comments.
From: "Naomi Osaka is a black as Obama is" at post 24, to
"Maybe low class behavior is just a Black thing?" at post 40 to
"I am always amazed to hear her speak at all. She looks completely simian" at post 50 to
"She a ho" at post 58
are just not classy. Freepers putting their foot in their mouth with those sorts of comments (and some that are clearly racist) detracts from Serena being her own worst enemy in yesterday's match.
