Which is supported by your one black friend or the "many other" black fans you've discovered by hitting "ctrl-f" and typing in "I'm black but" in some comment section of some article about him? You're really not much different than the agenda-pushing facebook revisionist history scholars that go around posting videos of this black guy who says the confederate flag doesn't represent racism; or the far-right-wing media member who pegs their token black associate to write an article critiquing the #BLM movement so when they condemn it, they can reference Token Black; or the people who say Bill Cosby didn't rape 40 women citing Whoopi Goldberg's defense of him--because she's a woman. Somehow, you're the one who thinks he's in a position to demand evidence to oppose your stance, despite the existing evidence that opposes your stance? Let me break down what we have already for you since you seem to have drifted so far from the original topic that I'd probably find remnants of flight MH370 before I find your original point. Translation: I don't have double standards. I'm racist. If there was any doubt to my racism, allow me to add 'f*cking ******s'. --Does that really need translation? Translation: I'm racist but if the situation presented itself where my daughter absolutely had to be in a relationship with a n*gger, she'd better marry a tall, rich n*gger, like a basketball player. Like the only black people I can stand. Like the only black people she could get something from if she divorced them. And please note how I said black guy's son when I started but now refer to blacks exclusively as n*ggers, you know, in case somebody didn't think I'm racist. Translation: I'm racist and I've become ok with it because I know I'm not the only one. We're all racist right? Since it's my belief that we're all racist, it's okay for me to be that way. Oh yeah, ****ing n*gger. Do you understand yet? He's not in the heat of competition "talking trash." He's clearly upset as his daughter's choice in the color of her partners. So please, swallow your impotent opinion and stop trying to push a point that nobody's feeling. I'm going to be the bigger man and walk away from this because you sound like Eddie Murphy's character describing Shrek for the first time, talking out of your *** about something you know nothing about. I couldn't care less if your opinion on Hogan changes or not. Your opinion on racism is what really needs to change. Go educate yourself. Because you have black friends doesn't mean you're not racist. Because you share the same opinion as some black people doesn't mean you're not racist. You should take a cue from Floyd Mayweather's mistakes and pick up a book instead of trying to fight all the time. I'm done here, surprised this thread is still opened to be honest. Go get some prune juice to help you with your weak-*** ****.

Truer words have never been spoken.

I think a few things should be said:

1: He made extremely inappropriate comments. It's pretty easy to determine at that time he was racist.

2: it's unfortunate for anyone to get fired but the WWE had every right. They were protecting their image and brand. Persian I think the WWE is about money and they will exploit rave to make money.. But regardless any business has the right to terminate a relationship, even over something old.

3: as a white person I understand I need to be sympathetic and understanding towards other races in time of racial conflict. Let other races vent rather than arguing with them in their anger. They are angry for good reason normally.. Even if evidence doesn't always back up every claim... We need to understand that there is such a thing as white privilege.. Even if we don't always see it where we come from..

4: It is your prerogative, purely up to you, to forgive. It's nearly been 10 years since these comments. We get mad when people don't want to forgive but it's not our decision. And we can't argue people into a corner forcing them to forgive.. Personally, I know when you're drunk you won't even remember what happened... You will say crazy things... With how drunk Riley Cooper was I personally think he could have said anything.. It was dead wrong.. He deserved punishment... At the same time I can't just demand everyone devices him.. People have a lot of built up hurt over the years.. There is a lot of racial tension and I can't expect resonate to forgive right away, or ever..

Same with Hogan... No idea if he is racist... He definitely could have changed.. But many are hurt from years of years of racial hurts.. And I can't expect them to come around and forgive, especially when we haven't seen any huge public apology or anything like that.. Even if he did, forgiveness is an individual thing.... Holding resentment towards blacks who are slow to forgive is wrong. We need to sympathize with hurting people, and let them forgive on their timing.. Not argue them to death about why they have to forgive.. That arguing will only lead to more of a racial divide..

I just hope whites can get the same grace when they post a little ignorantly, from their perspective...

This isn't a indictment on anyone... I read most of the thread as a whole for the first time today

This whole situation is messed up honestly.

This is still being talked about?

Hogan actually recently like last week said he was in 2K16 and it could be true as it seems like they're doing the Warrior Showcase again since 70% of the people in the Warrior Showcase have been confirmed plus they've confirmed Adnan and Mustafa who faced off against Warrior in Tag Match against Hogan and Warrior plus Hogan is a part of Warrior's biggest match so he could be in it but I'd give it a 50/50 chance currently though

He's either in denial or he simply doesn't concern himself with things such as the original post.
