Man if you're going to go out on the limb and say something racist at least be clever/funny.


This was just dumb.

It sounded funnier in the original Romanian.

That's hilarious.

Europeans are deep-down so much more racist than Americans.

There is no way to tell if he meant something by it without knowing the context which it was said or if there is some history between them

Would 'café au lait' be more acceptable?

How the frick do you even equate those two things?

I guess using your logic it would also be ok to publicly speculate if the kid will be a retard.

It's Nastase. That was tame for him.

Do we not know what racist means anymore? The media and SJW's have completely watered down what it means and apply it to everything. He made a tasteless comment at most.

He probably read how that kook NO mayor called NO a "Chocolate City" so he thought it was cool.

Dude went too far with his comment


You know it was a comment/joke "overhead" by a journalist who reported it?

Who in this world would want something they said maybe in jest, or an inappropriate joke, or in a private conversation made public. I know I wouldn't.

Nastase is an absolute piece of shite

Always has been, and always will be. He hs taken shot at Serena her whole career as well

A mother responding to someone making borderline comments about her unborn child is completely acceptable. Especially someone who has a history of being a dickhead to you

However, tho site will never accept a black person claiming racism. I understand, because of how overaaturated that claim has become

Wait, you're equating skin color to retardation? And you used the word logic in this post?

I bet the people who are clutching their pearls and defending this poor unborn child from the evils of racism via skin tone speculation would celebrate Serena's ability to choose to kill it in the womb.

The downvotes in this thread are pretty disturbing. Some people on here will defend racism no matter what the situation

No, I am supporting the right of a woman to respond to a lifelong a-hole making disparaging tasteless comments about their child


Was it actually "racist" by definition? No. But that word has become so loose now. And I think it makes sense to support Serena for using an improper adjective to describe the tasketless comment, then support the world class a-hole making fun of a baby

Woosh. That was the point going over your head. It was a sprinkle of hyperbole to illustrate a point.
