NBA Atlanta Hawks Owner Bruce Levingston sells team due to racists remarks

#21

Quote:Why is the target audience 40-something white guys?

 

If you feel the experience of going to the game is safe, with no reported incidents in the years he mentioned, why does he want to cater to a segment of the population that incorrectly believes it is unsafe to go to the games because of all the black people there?

 

Why does the color of the cheerleaders matter?

 

If the demographics of the audience is predominately African-American, why would he want to play music they may not favor? Does he really think the unfounded fears of unsafe conditions will be assuaged by "white" music, whatever that is?
 

Bingo!

 

I wonder with him targeting the "Southern Whites" because they have more money, is he indirectly telling me or other minorities who love the Hawks that their money is not as valuable?

Whether someone has a liberal, or conservative viewpoint, a authoritative figure should not lock a thread for the sole purpose to get the last word in all the while prohibiting someone else from being able to respond.
