Donald Sterling, the owner of the National Basketball Association's Los Angeles Clippers, has triggered outrage in the US when he was caught on tape telling his mistress that he doesn't approve of her 'associating with black people'.

That’s like a bran flake that doesn't want to associate with raisins.
