If Vince lets him get off, what message is it sending out about the WWE? About Vince himself?
Wrestlers will walk and WWE and Vince will also be labeled as a racist for allowing it. Plus it wouldn't look good on Vince as the man running the USA could also be black.
What about the black, Asian, or anyone for that matter who are the fans? Will they want to see a company that allows racist to run free?
Is it good business sense? No.
But Jayfunk, from the posts you have done in this thread so far, without saying it. you seem to think he's a racist but he's a good worker so keep him. That seems to me as if you agree with racist comments.
(Please note I haven't said you are racist or that, but some people may agree with me on that)
