Of course, Rasheed is claiming he didn't mean it in a racial context. And the WR candidate is claiming he mis-spoke. Doesn't really matter in the spirit of the argument it would be helpful for the mayor to address both instead of cherrypicking.

As I already noted in this thread, they are both stupid comments. However, such stupid comments will always be found more offensive when they come from old, white men than when they come from a member of a less traditionally privileged group. That's what generations of hegemony will do for you I suppose.
