What? I fail to see how that makes any since. Im asking for a nuanced discussion. It's you who has the mentality of agree with this or you are the one with the problem. Enough with you. You are annoying.

I mean a group that has openly called for the killing of cops is pretty radical and extreme to me. Idk how you stand on that but doesn't sound like a solid group of rational people. I believe it started with good intentions but got hijacked by extremists like movements often do. Happens all the time throughout history.

Im not going to rehash all the issues we have discussed in the thread. Go back and look at it yourself. Im tired of explaining it to you because you only hear what you want to hear.

If the song really hurts them then I am very concerned about the mental toughness of our current players.

This is by far the dumbest thing Ive heard on this thread. Pick a side? How about you consider what YOU think about the issue instead of what your'e being told by both groups. They both are radical and extreme. No room for nuance. No room for thinking. Just Lynch mob justice right? What a fucking idiot.

That's so overplayed its laughable at best.

Im sorry but because someone insists on singing the song and not being silenced doesn't mean they have racist intent. It only takes 3 seconds of thinking to come up with a conclusion like that.
-

I actually agree with most of that.

It doesn't. And a lot of people don't even really care about these issues, they are just mining for morality points.

Careful. Facts make some people uncomfortable here.

Btw I honestly don't care if they change the names and tear down the statues. Just seems stupid and like its not going to make a real impact. The song is what I don't think should be changed just because it could have been perceived as racist a long time ago. That's reaching. My point was everyone is everyone is going to walk away from this and forget about it soon. Then something else will happen and the problems we aren't addressing still won't be fixed and they will demand more change. Its an endless cycle from that perspective.

Please fall on your own sword of self righteousness.

Well nearly all of your responses have been pathetic so I guess Im just trying to catch up.

Yea the police are just going out looking for people to shoot up. Jesus Christ the world isn't a giant liberal arts campus.

Uhh it's easy. You have no evidence of me being racist so you have no backing to that claim. That's not my position at all. I'm saying that this is a small stunt that is being made to take the eye off the obvious problems though not intentionally. But whatever man. Keep thinking anyone who disagrees is a racist. It doesn't help anything and nobody cared about it until recently was my point.

Sorry the facts make you feel uncomfortable.
-
Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
Well I certainly think its unfortunate that you think people with different views than you are pieces of shit. No room for nuance. No room for thinking. Maybe I would support it if it actually meant something but it in no way makes the situation any better. Im not angry at the kids themselves, but I do not support mob justice with no room for discussion.

I agree they kill too many people but I also agree that its one of the hardest jobs to do. They need more training and funding. Not to be defunded. When people get defunded do you think they feel the incentive to do a better job? They only killed a little over 200 black people last year which we agree is still too high. But it doesn't support your opinion.

Go look at the data. It doesn't support your theory.
-
Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
Or maybe you just don't like the fact that the data doest support your opinion. Whatever dude.
