What if Wisconsin had lost and Kaminsky would've made that same comment in the postgame in Regards to Harrison. Would there be riots?

There would be tons of faux outrage for sure.

Not the right guy, but this will likely not be an issue at all, when it us no different then Riley Coopers comments and he got fined/suspended I believe. Granted Harrison isn't in professional sports.

No, he would have simply been thrown off the team and chastised by Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and the like and vilified by the MSM. Its a damn shame of the double standards that we have today.

For the roles to be truly reversed, wouldn't he have had to call him a cracker?

And no one would care about that. Your faux outrage is showing.

Why do people ALWAYS do this when something like this happens?

Yes, a white person calling a black person a n***** is worse than a black person doing it to a white guy. Get the frick over it.

He'd have been kicked off the team. And this would have been dominated espn for the next week. Would even be talked about more than the title game.

Al Sharpton salivates at the thought.

There were riots last night, though not for the comment. I haven't heard anyone calling the rioters in Lexington "thugs" though. Talk about role reversal.

Frank the tank would have never said something like this because Bo Ryan actually mentors his players. They aren't paid rent-a players like sleaze cal deals with it.

They'd be sending smoke signals in Ferguson right now.

Cops would be donning body armor everywhere.

Well yeah that's a completely different situation. Of course a white guy referring to a black guy by the n word is completely different than if the roles were reversed.

But I do like that people pretend to not see the difference

Kaminsky would've had to call Harrison a cracker if you want the scenario to be reversed, and I doubt you guys would be so mad over it.

Or Kaminsky would've had to call Harrison a dirty jew. You guys would seriously
think Kaminsky saying "frick that cracker" in reference to harrison would be racist??

This board is in massive faux outrage
