Bama player shenanigans at NC game

I was on paternity leave & holiday leave for several weeks, off & on, in December. I always post from home with my personal device. I’m not about to abuse government resources - that’s my pet peeve.
 
What's your outfit............. or is that TS/SCI Maj?
I work for the hospital Commander at Fort Bliss, also a UT grad. He has a signed Earl Campbell book in his office & he was chatting with me about (his experience) playing golf with Earl. He told some cool stories about Earl.

He clearly said "fvck trump" and honestly, that's his right to do so. He also later walked it back by saying he said "fvck georgia". He didn't say "georgia" and it's obvious he didn't.

My only take on this is very simple, and I know I will never get an honest answer to this question, but I will pose it anyway:

If the roles had been reversed and this were 2009 and a white florida player yelled "fvck obama" as he came out of the tunnel for the national championship game, what would the media have done to that kid? Social media, news media, SID etc........ he'd have been crucified, labeled a racist and likely kicked off the team after the game. Don't believe me? It happened......... sort of........ at our university.

We all have the right to say what we want. We all have the right to think what we think. Our institutions should always be respected, whether you agree with the person in charge or not.
Good post. The double standard is insane.

That is 100% liberal bullshit. I didn't hate him because he is black. I hated him for the same reason I hated Ted Kennedy, and currently hate Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders. I think they are too generous with other people's money. Of course, I would have probably hated Robin Hood too.

Why do you have to "hate" them?

What's wrong with disagreeing with them?

I don't vote for Democrats or Republicans, because when you get down to it neither are going to day anything to really help anybody but themselves. But I don't "hate" them.

I should say that most (not all) of the hate towards Obama was primarily about his race, certainly plenty of people also disagreed with his politics. But I don't think Buck Burnette was making a political argument. I don't think Bo was making a political statement either, but my point was that Bo probably dislikes Trump for the same reasons many americans, white and black, dislike Trump.

Side note, one of my best buds in college, a guy I roomed with for 3 years, went to high school with Buck. He came around a few times, seemed like a nice guy.

No no no.

I don't have to hate them, I just choose to hate them. I hate when they say the well off don't pay their fair share of taxes. The well off pay almost all federal income tax. Why not say thank you, instead of making people think the well off are screwing the poor.
I hate it when they say a federal income tax cut only helps the well off, which is obvious when they are the one's paying the most.
The republicans aren't much better, but the lesser of two evils imho.
 
If this last election and the 1st year into this Presidency has taught me anything it is realizing how freaking corrupt our system is in both sides. I’m conservative but imo guys like Paul Ryan, McConnell are self serving as any of them.
 
MM just waved the ban hammer. Take heed gentleman.
