A Right To Bear Arms?

David Stern's problem is that he sees himself as the overseer of a NBA plantation populated mostly by high-paid, child-like, irresponsible Blacks that he feels have to be controlled, regulated and restricted from carrying guns to protect themselves and their families, lest they embarrass or endanger the White fans and the owners. Denying players (effectively all Black) from going to the plantation directly from H.S., is also part of the mentality, that if they get rich too soon, they may get swelled heads and become unmanageable later. The other leagues don't have this concern since most of their high schoolers turning pro, are safe White athletes. The NBA under Stern, is a perfect metaphor for the slavery system in which Blacks were feared, controlled, harshly punished (like the unjust 1 yr suspension of Artest and loss to him of multiple millions), and were powerless to protect themselves, as Stern now seeks to do by denying them the right to carry their guns for protection. Stern and his owners do not see these players as full persons entitled to the respect accorded to other athletes, but instead sees them only as the 3/5 that the constitution mandated. His overtures to European players is his attempt at 'whitening' the league, thereby depressing salaries and making the NBA less dependant on the labor of Blacks. I've been watching Stern for a long time and I've become more and more convinced of his racist, patronizing mind-set.
