NBA Lockout Lawyer Says Players Are Being Given “Plantation Workers” Treatment

Posted: November 9, 2011

NBA Lockout

NBA players union lawyer Jeffrey Kessler on Tuesday likened his players treatment by NBA owners during the lockout on Tuesday to “plantation workers.”

Speaking to the Post Kessler said that a proposal to split basketball-related income in half was not fair to players while Stern gave players until the end of business on Wednesday to accept the deal or be offered a far worse contract.

According to Kessler:

“To present that in the context of ‘take it or leave it,’ in our view, that is not good faith,”

He continued:

“Instead of treating the players like partners, they’re treating them like plantation workers.”

NBA Commissioner David Stern in the meantime responded to the sun by noting:

“Kessler’s agenda is always to inflame and not to make a deal … even if it means injecting race and thereby insulting his own clients. … He has been the single most divisive force in our negotiations and it doesn’t surprise me he would rant and not talk about specifics. Kessler’s conduct is routinely despicable.”

The Players Union has promised to reprimand Kessler for playing the race card and in the meantime they say Stern’s “ultimatum” to accept the owners offers will not be accepted.

On a personal note nothing is more amusing to me then hearing the “plantation” card being used when a bunch of millionaires are the subject of that race card.

Do you think Kessler is going to far by focusing the issue away from salary caps and revenue sharing and directly on the racial makeup of the league?

    White people are living in a global white genocide plantation:

    Africa for the Africans, Asia for the Asians, white countries for EVERYBODY!

    Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.

    The Netherlands and Belgium are just as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.

    Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.

    What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?

    How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?

    And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?

    But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives alike say I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.

    They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.

    Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.
