Question, if you took all of Daddy Rickett's emails, and did a CTRL+H and replaced "Muslim" with "Christian", do you think there would be as big of an outrage?

Nope

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

So your defense of Dad Ricketts is that he was being a bigot in private?

I don’t get that. If a person is a bigot in a public forum, that is bad, but if a person is exposed as being a bigot in private, that is not bad?

I'm a big dumb shitlib baby

It's pretty clear that the man who provided the money to purchase the Cubs is a racist and Islamophobe, and it also looks like there's not much the current Cubs ownership can do about it.

Emails sent by Joe Ricketts were published by Splinter News on Monday, providing an ugly picture of an old billionaire happy to share all kinds of false memes and cruel and unfunny jokes with like-minded friends, not only proudly demeaning Islam but also other ethnicities. He appears to be an Obama birther too, engaging in bizarre conspiratorial fever dreams that identify the former president as a secret Muslim bent on undermining white America.

Ricketts issued a statement of regret, denying that the trove of communications represented how he actually thinks.

"I’ve said things that don’t reflect my value system," he said. "I strongly believe that bigoted ideas are wrong."

That attempt landed with a thud, however, as did a similar statement from Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts, Joe's son.

"Let me be clear: the language and views expressed in those emails have no place in our society," Tom Ricketts said in a statement. "My father is not involved with the operation of the Chicago Cubs in any way.​"

For instance they were never taught that Columbus was a slave owner.

It's just bizarre the lengths shitlibs will go do defend Islam. Can't we just say, extremists of ALL religions just suck?

Ideologues of all kinds suck. It just so happens that in this country we have ideologues like Joe Ricketts who are calling the shots. If Shahid Khan got caught saying stuff like this about Christians it would be an international incident.

Dan saw racism so he had to comment about it while absolutely insisting that Joe is not the owner of the Cubs. He is just the man who provided the money.

No it wouldn't. Half the countries in the Middle East have destroying Israel as an open goal. The Saudi's just killed a guy who wrote for the Washington Post, and other than a few journalists there was no international outrage.

What exactly am I "defending"? His remarks?

My point is exactly what I wrote. I don't know how to explain it further. A person shouldn't have their property rights violated because they said some things in an email that others don't like unless what they wrote was promoting some sort of illegal activity. Or at the very least, if we are going to start doing that, it should be a lot worse than what he wrote here.

Weird, I see Dolphin looking in my asshole

Fuck you Dolphin!!!

I had that image buried in my memory until you brought it up.

The menstrual cycle changes among Hassidic Jewish women was something as well.

Her disgusting looking snatch is what most people remember

I go straight for the asshole. Always.

Have a terrible night and die in MANY fires.

Nope

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

If you want to think he's a bigot or whatever else, fine. But why include that he supports Trump? This is the part that gets me. Is someone not allowed to have political affiliations anymore?
