true, and what he said was almost 1/2 as bad as what Reggie White said about a year ago. Some people catch more heat than others, Barkley is another mouth.

Re: ". Without Rocker speaking out, we might have thought he was just a jerk. Now we know exactly what kind of jerk he is. "

I agree and it's time we decriminalize stupidity. No one is harmed but he and being a fool is it's own punishment. Let him be an ass, it's a god given right.

RE:"Rocker is simply exercising his rights of free speech. In a country where people can denounce the President as a liar and a crook, what is wrong with a job insulting anyone who annoys him. This is just PC run amok. Without freedom of speech, no one dare say what he believes. Without Rocker speaking out, we might have thought he was just a jerk. Now we know exactly what kind of jerk he is."

Certainly Rocker had the right to make such an observation even though the glasses he was wearing at the time were a bit too tinted against NYC and it's baseball fans, which I see as his real target OTOH, those subways can be a bit overwhelming to a novice rider.
To say the least.
