Since the gun control movement is losing stream, they are seeking ways to remain relevant.

The organization professes to advance blacks but in reality it's nothing more than a liberal front group. Sterling has donated to liberal politicians and most important, he has given money to the NAACP. The  Daily Caller   reported : The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) accepted multiple grants over a period of several years from Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, and publicly defended Sterling even after some in the African-American comm

Among other comments, Sterling said to his former mistress, a black Mexican woman known as V. Stefiano: One is the increasingly common release — and acceptability — of private recordings and videos.

Banned for life by the NBA. His ugly remarks are proof, as I've said before, not that racism is alive and well in America, but rather that racism is on its last leg. The man has been publicly branded a pariah. The American people have made him an outcast. You think any of that would have happened if we really were a racist nation, as some would have us believe? So what lesson should we take of the public flogging of Donald Sterling, as deserved as it was? How about this:  If anyone – an account
