#BoycottClippers Blows Up Social Media After Racist Donald Sterling Comments

#BoycottClippers has become the rallying cry for people on social media following the revelation of Clippers owner Donald Sterling asking his younger girlfriend to not bring black men to basketball games.

Needless to say, Twitter has not been kind to Sterling and is now calling for people to boycott the Clippers and are using #BoycottClippers as their rallying cry. Here are a few of the angry/poignant/thought-provoking comments emanating from Twitter users who are jumping on the #BoycottClippers bandwagon:

Hope the NBA and fans of da Clippers come down hard on #DonaldSterling. He’s such a bad representation of the human race. #BoycottClippers

Kobe was fined $100K for f-bomb. What should Donald Sterling’s fine be? #BoycottClippers #ClippersOwner

Maybe the players should show up, suit up and just sit there. They still get paid, but don’t play for him. #sterlingsucks #BoycottClippers

Hard to tell yet what the #BoycottClippers movement will do to Donald Sterling and the Clippers, but there certainly is going to be some fallout.
