L.A. Clippers Owner Donald Sterling: ‘Don’t Bring Black People To My Games’ [AUDIO]

L.A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling has been captured on tape going on a racist rant against Black people after his bi-racial girlfriend posted pictures of her and Black people on Instagram, reports TMZ.

Sterling’s girlfriend, V. Stiviano, who is Black and Mexican, posted a picture of herself with Magic Johnson, prompting Sterling to say that she was embarrassing him. He told Stiviano that she was supposed to be a “delicate” Latina and that he preferred not to think about her Blackness. He also told his girlfriend, who said that she could not be racist in her heart, that he does not want her to acknowledge Black people publicly. 

Read more from TMZ:

– “It bothers me a lot that you want to broadcast that you’re associating with black people. Do you have to?” (3:30) 

– “You can sleep with [black people]. You can bring them in, you can do whatever you want.  The little I ask you is not to promote it on that … and not to bring them to my games.” (5:15)

– “I’m just saying, in your lousy f******* Instagrams, you don’t have to have yourself with, walking with black people.” (7:45)

– “…Don’t put him [Magic] on an Instagram for the world to have to see so they have to call me.  And don’t bring him to my games.” (9:13)

Magic Johnson called Sterling’s remarks a “shame.”

“It’s a shame that Donald Sterling feels that way about African-Americans,” Johnson told TMZ.

“He has a team full of amazing African-American basketball players that are working to bring a championship to Clippers fans. The Clippers also have a strong minority fan base.”

Sterling has a documented history of allegedly racist behavior — he’s been sued twice by the federal government for allegedly refusing to rent apartments to Blacks and Latinos. 

ESPN reports:

The U.S. Department of Justice on Monday sued [Sterling] for housing discrimination, claiming he refused to rent apartments to blacks and families with children.

Federal prosecutors contend that Sterling, his wife, Rochelle, and their family trust refused to rent to many prospective tenants, treated them poorly and misrepresented the availability of apartments to them in the city’s Koreatown section.

The defendants also are accused of refusing to rent to black prospective tenants in Beverly Hills as well as families with children looking to rent apartments that the defendants owned or managed in Los Angeles County.

“Here in Los Angeles, where housing is already at a premium, it is imperative that no one be denied housing simply because of their skin color, ethnic background or because they have children,” said U.S. Attorney Debra Wong Yang.

A message left with attorney Michael Kennick, who has represented Sterling in previous lawsuits, was not immediately returned Monday.

Claiming violations of the federal Fair Housing Act, the lawsuit seeks an end to “discriminating on account of race, national origin and familial status,” plus unspecified monetary damages and penalties. The lawsuit also names as defendants the Sterling Family Trust and the Korean Land Company, which owns multifamily rental properties throughout the county.

In November, a federal judge ordered Sterling to pay nearly $5 million in fees to plaintiffs’ attorneys in a lawsuit accusing him of discriminating against black and Hispanic tenants.

He was also sued by former Clippers exec Elgin Baylor for racial discrimination, TMZ reports.

Girl Tossed From Millionaire’s Rooftop is Planning a Lawsuit

The 19-year old pornstar who apparently agreed to be tossed off a roof by a Hollywood millionaire is now suing the man who did the tossing, Dan Blizerian.

Janice Griffith, who suffered a broken foot in the ordeal, told TMZ that her porn career has suffered since the rooftop incident, and she stated the cancelation of a photo shoot for the online adult entertainment website kink.com as an example.

In a twitter message to her 45,000 followers, Janice wrote – ‘I just want to get back to work… that’s my only concern. Anyone trying to book a gal with a broken foot?’

In another tweet she said: ‘I was looking forward to shooting for @SexAndSub SO bad today, stupid broken foot.’

It also appears that the pain in her foot is not only bad for business, but good for her thinking abilities. She told TMZ, “Looking back on it, it’s not the best idea we’ve ever had. It seems [sic] like a good idea at the time.”

She did not say if a lawyer was hired for the lawsuit.

For his part in the while mess, the rooftop thrower Dan Blizerian retweeted a message to his followers, saying: “Dan Bilzerian was almost murdered by a naked female that tried to pull him off a rooftop hahaha good thing he’s part hulk.’

Shower stabbing: Georgia woman gets life in prison for sister’s murder

Chakaya Brittney Folborg was sentenced to life in prison after admitting she used a steak knife to kill her sister in the shower, authorities said. ‘The mother and their 12-year-old sister were on the other side of the bathroom door begging her to stop when they heard this,’ an officer said.

COBB COUNTY JAILChakaya Brittney Folborg admitted in court Wednesday to killing her sister.

A Georgia woman was sentenced to life in prison after she admitted to stabbing her sister to death with a steak knife.

Chakaya Brittney Folborg, 24, pleaded guilty in court Wednesday to the murder of her adopted sister Kourtney Chanel Dyches in their Mableton home on Feb. 20, 2012, authorities said.

The sisters were both 21 years old at the time.

“It was straight up jealousy,” Sherwin Figueroa, assistant district attorney of Cobb County, told the Daily News. “It’s just wrong and it is what it is.”

Figueroa, who prosecuted the case, explained that Folborg was adopted as an infant from a woman with a crack problem in New York. At the time, their mother did not think she could get pregnant. Shortly after, she gave birth to Dyches.

As they aged, Dyches became a popular girl with lots of friends. But Folborg admitted that she felt like a failure.

The girls never talked about boys, entertainment or other light-hearted subjects as teenagers, according to Figueroa.

COBB COUNTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY’S OFFICEKourtney Dyches was only 21 when she was stabbed to death in the shower of her Mableton, Ga., home by her own sister.

Officer Kim Isaza said the sisters had a lot of tension in part because they lived in such a small house — so small that their family members could hear Dyches’ final moments about 11 p.m. that day.

“The mother and their 12-year-old sister were on the other side of the bathroom door begging her to stop when they heard this,” Isaza told The News.

Dyches died before cops could get to the house, officers said.

“This victim was a vibrant young lady with the rest of her life ahead of her,” Figueroa said in a statement.

“The defendant, without any provocation, took a knife from the kitchen some two hours before the killing and waited until the victim was in the shower before viciously stabbing her at least six times.”

Folborg, who has been in jail since her arrest, will be eligible for parole after serving 30 years.

Connecticut high school students attend seaside vigil for murdered classmate Maren Sanchez

Sanchez, 16, was slashed to death Friday morning inside Jonathan Law High School after she rejected a boy who asked her to prom. The dance was scheduled for Friday night but postponed after the brutal murder, allegedly at the hands of a 16-year-old classmate.

MICHELLE MCLOUGHLIN/REUTERSBalloons are released at the beach during a vigil in honor of slain student Maren Sanchez in Milford, Conn., on Friday.

Instead of prom Friday night, Jonathan Law High School students went to a seaside vigil for their murdered classmate.

About 200 community members and students, some wearing their prom dresses and tuxedos, gathered Friday evening at Walnut Beach in Milford, Conn., to remember 16-year-old Maren Sanchez, a junior who was murdered earlier in the day at the school after rejecting a classmate’s invitation to the dance.

Friends identified the boy as Chris Plaskon, also 16. He has been charged with murder as a juvenile, but could be charged as an adult following a court appearance Monday in New Haven.

Police did not identify the teen.

Teen Charged With Murder In Milford Stabbing
A 16-year-old student was charged with murder after the stabbing death of Maren Sanchez.

Anguished classmates funneled down to Walnut Beach around 6 p.m. — one hour before the school’s junior prom was scheduled to start at a nearby banquet hall.

The annual dance was postponed after the tragedy.

Wearing their formal wear, students cried and prayed at the local beach, the Hartford Courant reported. Friends shouted out memories of their slain classmate as they released purple balloons into the sky and yelled “Love you, Maren,” the newspaper reported.

MICHELLE MCLOUGHLIN/REUTERSPeople embrace on Walnut Beach during the 6 p.m. vigil. Many students showed up in their formal wear as a remembrance to Sanchez, who was excited for the scheduled prom.

Earlier, students covered a rock outside the school with purple spray paint and wrote the teen’s name and birthday, Aug. 26, 1997, alongside a white heart.

Sanchez was attacked, allegedly by Plaskon, around 7:15 a.m., when the boy shoved the girl down a set of stairs and started to choke her, witnesses told the Daily News.

The teen pulled out a kitchen knife he brought from home and slashed Sanchez across the neck, chest and face.

MICHELLE MCLOUGHLIN/REUTERSStudents shouted out memories about their classmate, Maren Sanchez, as they released balloons into the sky.

She was pronounced dead at 7:43 a.m. Plaskon was immediately taken into custody.

“She was screaming,” one friend, who was inside the building at the time of the attack, told The News. “There were students in the hallway when it happened. The kids who saw it are all a wreck.”

The school was placed on lockdown immediately after the attack, but the order was lifted soon after police arrived.

Maren Sanchez modeled her marine blue, floor-length gown on Facebook last month. She planned to wear it to Friday’s junior prom.

Students and staff were dismissed from school about 9 a.m.

“The unprovoked attack on Maren this morning has unfortunately, for our family, resulted in the permanent loss of Maren Victoria Sanchez: a bright light, full of hopes and dreams, with the future at her fingertips,” the girl’s adult cousin, Edward Kovac, told reporters Friday afternoon. “Maren should be celebrating at her prom this evening with her friends and classmates. Instead, we are mourning her death, and we are trying as a community to understand this senseless loss of life.”

Sanchez was excited for the prom, posting a picture March 3 to Facebook of her wearing her prom dress.

“Yay,” she wrote next to a smiley face emoticon as she modeled her floor-length, marine blue gown. “so excited!!!”

Columbus Short FIRED From ‘Scandal’ — No Season 4 For Harrison Wright

Columbus Short will NOT be returning to “Scandal” — and sources connected with ABC says it’s because the network decided to give him the axe over allegations of domestic violence.

Columbus just released this statement:  “At this time I must confirm my exit from a show I’ve called home for 3 years, with what is the most talented ensemble in television today.”

Short goes on: “Everything must come to an end and unfortunately the time has come for Harrison Wright to exit the canvas.  I wish nothing but the best for Shonda, Kerry and the rest of the cast…”

Short story … it would appear Harrison ate the bullet that was aimed at him in the season finale.

TMZ broke the story … Short’s wife just got a restraining order against him after he allegedly put a knife to her throat and threatened to kill her.  He’s also been charged in connection with another incident with domestic violence and child abuse.  He was arrested for yet another incident of alleged domestic abuse.  And he was arrested recently for allegedly clocking a dude in a bar.

Teacher Suspended For Giving Student “Full Contact” Lap Dance

It was his birthday and the middle school student recalled the incident that happened back in February.

According to the male student, “Ms. Smith” grabbed his journal and stopped him from talking to his friends as he walked into his third-period class. He said he sat at his desk, and after the tardy bell rang, she placed a chair in front of the room. Music started playing and the entire class of middle school students began yelling and telling him to sit down. It was his birthday.

The student said he sat down and Ms. Smith gave him a full contact lap dance, rotating her buttocks against him and rubbing her hands all over his body. Ms. Smith also got on her knees in front of him and placed her head between his legs. The student admitted that he slapped Ms. Smith on the buttocks a few times.

At the end of the dance, Ms. Smith wrapped her arms around the student and he gave her bottom another squeeze. She hugged him and said “I love you, baby. Happy birthday,”

The teacher, 42 year old Felicia Smith, was charged with improper relationship with student and given a $30,000 bond.

She made her first court appearance on Friday.

This Republican Candidate Says Women’s Love for Their Kids Responsible for 95% of Divorces

Now I have heard a number of crazy things said by Republicans and if I had to choose the craziest, I’d be stumped. There are too many crazy contenders in the GOP to choose from, like Sarah Palin, Louie Gohmert and Michele Bachmann to name a few.

But it appears that everyday, another contender makes himself known and today was no exception. Thanks to reporting by Politico, our contender for the Republican crazy prize is Det Bowers – a South Carolina pastor and one of six Republican challengers trying to outcrazy Lindsay Graham.

According to the reports, Bowers made some comments in a sermon he preached to his South Carolina congregation. In his sermon, Bowers blamed women for “95 percent of divorces” because he says, they loved their kids more than their husbands.

“I find that in about 95 percent of broken marriages, though the husband’s the one that ran out on his wife, the wife loves her children more than she does her husband,” That is an abominable idolatry.”

“Do you hear me, ladies? It is an abominable idolatry to love your children more than you love your husband, and it will ruin your marriage. And yet you blame it on him because he ran off with some other woman! He did run off with some other woman, and you packed his bags. All of his emotional bags, you packed for him. Is that true in every case? No, but it’s true in the vast preponderance of them.”

“You just ran him off! You paid more attention to your children than you did to him. ‘Oh, he doesn’t need me?’ He needs you more than they do. He chose you, they didn’t. An abominable idolatry.”

Bowers is running for the United States Congress. He wants to be the next Republican congressman sitting in the seat presently occupied by Lindsay Graham. Now that this crazy story is public, his chances of winning the Republican vote just increased a thousand fold. He has the two basic attributes they’re looking for in their candidates – he’s white and he says crazy sh*t!

Republicans, speeding up this nation’s race to the bottom.

Alan Keyes Defends Cliven Bundy’s Racism

Alan Keyes

Alan Keyes is a contributor for the conservative propaganda outlet called WorldNetDaily, and he is making news today because he is also a black man who is defending the racist remarks made by Republican hero, Cliven Bundy.

According to Mr Keyes, Bundy was only pointing out the truth about blacks, and he said that liberals are the real racists for focusing on Bundy’s statement. In a statement to WorldNetDaily, Keyes said;

“He wasn’t talking so much about black folks, but about the harm and damage that the leftist socialism has done to blacks…”

“I find it appalling that we basically have a history of the leftist liberalism that wants to extinguish black people by abortion [and] destroying the family structure. All of these things if you just look at the effects, you would say this was planned by some racist madman to destroy the black community.”

Then when somebody comes along to comment on that damage, the leftists all scream “racism.”

“I think it’s time somebody started to recognize the racism that exists in its effects – the hard leftist ideology using the black community for their sacrificial lamb, for their sick ideology. It’s time we called them what they are.

“Now it’s racist to point it out.”

Caught On Video – Man Tossed Naked Girl Off A Roof – Video

In a photo shoot stunt that apparently went bad, a millionaire who shares his life and wild partying habits on Instagram is captured on tape throwing a naked 19 year old off the roof of his mansion.

In the video, Dan Bilzerian lifts the girl above his shoulders, then asked her if she was ready. After some last second mumbles from the teenager, Dan walks to the edge of the roof and tossed her over.

The idea was for her to land in a pool below,  but The DailyMail reports that before she was released, she grabbed the edge of his shirt and almost missed the water. The outcome was a broken foot.

Republicans and Cliven Bundy are One And The Same – Video

Yesterday in my piece on the racist Cloven Bundy and his views about the “negro” people, I touched on the reason why Republicans and their media machine especially Fox News, are so easily drawn to the Bundy types. My conclusion in the piece was that Bundy exemplifies the dog whistle message these Republicans preach every day – that the lazy blacks are coming to take whatever you have, so be fearful, be very fearful… and buy more guns!

It’s the whole “birds of a feather flock together” mentality, so the flocking with Bundy was just the natural reaction for these folks.

However, Bundy’s true colors came to light yesterday when the New York Times published an interview where Bundy expressed some extremely racist views about black people and naturally, the same Republicans who crowned him King Bundy – leader of the Republican cause against the government and the second coming of Ronald Reagan – are now tripping over themselves in a mad dash to distance themselves from the crazy man brave enough to say the things they all feel inside. In the Times interview, Bundy did not blow the dog whistle with subliminal messages like the other Republicans do, he just spoke the message.

In recent weeks, Sean Hannity of Fox News was practically in bed with Cliven Bundy, stroking Bundy’s ego every chance he got. But now, Hannity is besides himself and has joined the mass exit.

This is what Hannity said in a statement.

Allow me to make myself abundantly clear. I believe those comments are downright racist, they are repugnant, they are bigoted and it’s beyond disturbing. I find those comments to be deplorable and I think it’s extremely unfortunate that Cliven Bundy holds those views.

On The Ed Schultz show yesterday, guest Mike Papantonio and M. Maxwell further explained the birds of a feather mentality in the Republican party.
