NFL/NBA now have a Donald Sterling problem with Gayle Benson

Since when is calling a black man 'black' racist? Did she say "I hate you because you are black"? She said she hates him and he is black and a son of a *****, apparently. We don't know if he was rude to her constantly or anything for her to think he's a son of a *****. We don't know if he has ties to Rita and let her in on things that happen in Tom's house. We don't know anything, pretty much, except she said he was black, which he is, and that he is a son of a *****, which we don't know for sure what provoked that. Where is the proof that just being black is what led her to believe that he is a sob? Maybe he didn't like her either and wasn't very nice to her.

I am not saying she's not a racist because I haven't the faintest ******* clue one way or another, but this statement does nothing to change my mind on the subject without more context clues. We love to jump to conclusions about **** we have no idea about and I guess my point is stop doing that. This is not even close to Donald Sterling.

Basically when it is used as an adjective describing an insult. Remember when John Calipari called a reporter a "Mexican idiot"? The racial makeup of the reporter wasn't a part of him being an idiot, but to include it in the insult infers that he was an idiot due largely to said racial makeup. It may not be intended that way, but it is inherently racist in its practice.
