Donald Sterling banned from Bunny Ranch brothel following 'racist' rant

American brothel owner Dennis Hof has banned disgraced LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling from his Nevada sex clubs out of respect for his "smoking hot" African-American prostitutes and NBA players.

Mr Sterling found himself the subject of an outcry in the US last week, after he was allegedly recorded making racist remarks in an explosive conversation with girlfriend V. Stiviano.

In the recording obtained by gossip website TMZ, Sterling allegedly told her not bring black men to basketball games or post photographs on her Instagram account associating herself with black people.

The sports mogul has been banned from the National Basketball Association (NBA) for life and will have to pay a $2.5 million fine, the most severe punishment ever handed down to a team owner, for his "deeply offensive and harmful" remarks.

If only he were a rich white male who lived in a city full of desperate young women looking to hook up with someone famous.

Money money money money. People should be boycotting the ranch for using racism to make a quick buck, but no...the faux moral outrage over finding out a guy was racist who apparently was doing this kind of thing for -decades- is just too important.

I was coming into this thread to say the same thing. This is nothing more than free publicity for the bunny ranch and nothin else.
