Rocker seems like an awesome guy, someone I could actually be friends with and speak openly to without wondering if he’s uncomfortable. I’m not sure if he fully “knows the score” (that one small, ancient, ethno-religious malice is behind seemingly all anti-white activities in Western society) beyond just using politically-incorrect language and racial slurs, but I’d guess that he does. Below are his original comments from the now “infamous” Sports Illustrated interview he gave at 24 years of age (circa 1999)…
John Rocker said:
I'd retire first. It's the most hectic, nerve-racking city. Imagine having to take the
7 Train to the ballpark looking like you're riding through
Beirut next to some kid with purple hair, next to some
queer with
AIDS, right next to some dude who just got out of jail for the fourth time, right next to some 20-year-old mom with four kids. It's depressing... The biggest thing I don't like about
New York are the foreigners. You can walk an entire block in
Times Square and not hear anybody speaking
English.
Asians and
Koreans and
Vietnamese and
Indians and
Russians and
Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell did they get in this country?
The most pathetic aspect of the “national controversy” this interview generated is that amongst any group of pro-white individuals (such as my own family and friends), this sort of talk is considered the “minor leagues” of ethno-political banter. Naturally, the vast, overwhelming majority of perma-inebriated baseball fans who mercilessly harassed Rocker whenever the opportunity arose were white. I suppose they couldn’t recognize the abundant irony in “hating the hater” or the act of strongly denigrating someone’s personal opinion (that was merely thought and didn’t hurt anyone) through the ferocious, sometimes violent (he received many death threats), mean-spirited, boorish expression of their own.
Rocker speaking about the writer of the SI article...
John Rocker said:
“I can’t lie. I did yell at him. I asked him why he would intentionally do what he did to me. I asked him if he knew how much damage he had done to my family. He never attempted to apologize for the suspension he caused me, for the death threats I was receiving, for the fact that my parents were asked to not come back to the church that my family had attended for over fifteen years . . . the friends I lost, the image that will never be repaired. After everything he did, he was still looking for more. I yelled at him for maybe fifteen seconds, and like the slime that he is, he immediately went and tattled on me to a couple radio commentators. . . He was probably hoping that I would punch him and then what a grand story he would have to tell.”
It seems that Rocker's Judeo-sycophantic enemies need a lesson in tolerance of others.
During the zenith of this “controversy,” which had the DWF’s flogged into a tizzy of white-abhorrence, I remember this unflattering “stock photo” of Rocker being exclusively utilized on ESPN whenever he was being discussed. The photo’s implication, of course, is that Rocker is clearly evil and/or suffering from acute psychosis. I mean, what other explanation could be mustered for someone so racially and sexually obtuse in
“this day and age!?”
