Racism is offensive and it breeds hate.
And someone in John Rocker's position as a sports role-model has the ability to reach millions with his prejudice. The media's reaction to the situation just shows how apathetic society is becoming. Rocker's racist remarks was offensive to many people, thus, affecting them personally. You're just angry that someone with fame and money is able to get away with something illegal. I'm not saying that it's OK to do drugs and that we shouldn't care that others are messing up their lives using it.
