It is not illegal to be a racist.
Why can't everyone see that the legality of the issue is irrelevant?
If I work for McDonald's, I can legally go on television and say "the Big Mac is terrible, y'all should be going to Burger King and buying whoppers instead." That is something that's well within my right to do, but that doesn't mean that McDonald's couldn't fire me for it.
Donald Sterling has the right to be racist. He doesn't have the right to own an NBA franchise.

It's legally murky surrounding the forced selling.
A) He has to get fair market value or the NBA pays him a monster penalty.
B) The owners agreement is specific about the cause for a forced sell. It doesn't appear this is covered by the agreement.
I will say this though, it's amazing how many white guys come running in and white knighting for any other white guy caught being racist. It's like the subject hits really close to home or something.
