Daniel Figurelli -- shaggy exposes/destroys aggy POS sending racist tweets to recruits as Texas fan

Unprotected Speech, is speech that is not protected by the first amendment. Fighting words that are likely to provoke a hostile or violent response from an average person, fall under that category. It can most definitely be a crime. Trust me, most would just prefer to handle it themselves...but things like that aren't said face to face.

Then why aren't all members white supremacy groups being charged with this crimes? Why is the Westboro Baptist church allowed to continually use this speech?
 
I am asking out of complete ignorance. I am not trying to pretend that I am a lawyer.
 
It's hate speech when used to try and incite violence or intimidation.

Daniel Figurelli tried to do both.

If that's the law, I get it. I am just trying to figure out how that law hasn't been applied to known hate groups who are constantly hiding behind the 1st amendment?
 
Dude got what he deserved. Might be time to legally change his name.
Anyone tweeting these kids (good or bad stuff) should stop. Begging an 18 yr old to play for your team is sad. Doing what this kid did is much worse.

Can you get us some intel? Has anyone seen him around Mays?

It's all subjective. Is the kk k and westboro directing their comments at someone directly, as this coward did. Maybe racist signs and indirect comments are not viewed the same. I'm no lawyer either, so I don't know.

"The Supreme Court has identified categories of speech that are unprotected by the First Amendment and may be prohibited entirely. Among them are obscenity, child pornography, and speech that constitutes so-called “fighting words” or “true threats.” In a 2010 case, the Court made clear that it would not be likely to add more categories to the list of types of speech that currently fall outside the First Amendment’s purview, but it did not entirely rule out the possibility that other forms of unprotected speech exist"
 
OK, so I just read the link to Hornsports ---- WOW!! The milk dud game? Are you kidding me? I thought maybe some of you were dog piling Aggie but ... this is disgusting! This guy will have a tough time getting a job any time soon. Unbelievable to the point that I actually feel sorry for him -- do you realize what you have done to yourself?
 
A few notes on this situation:
1. Aggies will swear up and down that Orangebloods and Chip Brown falsely report things to influence recruiting. While Brown has been wrong about a few things, he doesn't blatantly try to make himself a player in recruiting the way that Liucci does. OB is not in anyway endorsed by Texas, while TexAgs is basically just an outlet for Aggie hype coming straight from the athletic department. The members use A&M credentials to log in and off of the site, to "verify" that they are really students or alumni.
2. TexAgs kicks off any poster who is deemed to be saying negative things about the football program, and they regularly delete entire threads if they aren't pro aggie enough. This explains why you see a blog of thousands of people and not a single word about this incident.
3. BONEHEADS of the world: stop sending people threatening communications and claiming you have hired a lawyer. Once you have hired a lawyer, he does the communicating for you. You would not contact someone and tell them you had hired a lawyer, bc the lawyer would do that for you!
 
OK - still reading through this, and found out -- its not his fault, its YOUR fault! He's just a victim!

As to the accounts being taken down, great question. My guess is the person wanted to prank some UT fans and bought the accounts to do so because they know I have a large A&M following

Sadly, he's far from alone among that sick fan base when it comes to posting the Milk Duds photo.

Sorry, I haven't lived in CS for 20 years. This was the first I'd even heard of it. This guy is a sad joke. I half way feel sorry for him, I bet anything he is just a super awkward wannabe.

It is sad, pitiful even. But I think you guys have our asses kicked when it comes to disgusting. New Oakman news today is a lot bigger than this.
As far as I know this is just a lone wolf douche bag, not an institutional cover up. We have our fair share of morons (maybe more than our fair share). But I doubt anyone thinks Sumlin or the University is involved.

Good Aggie defense/example of collective group think. There are multiple other threads to discuss Baylor, and yet you attempt to hijack this thread about an Aggie who made a horrific mistake (or revealed a horrific character flaw) into "at least we're not as bad as BU." Seriously? Are you that eaten up with Baylor? This is coming from a guy who described Baylor recruits as "wild dogs", "thugs" and guys who "look like" rapists. Those are your words not mine. Each of those words are loaded. You know it, and if you don't you should enroll in that class covering racial sensitivities which your school had to start offering after Dallas high school students were insulted with racial slurs this spring by one of your fellow ags, on your campus. Pardon me if I read your words, see the actions of this guy, see the response (or lack thereof) from your 12th man buddies, see the Dallas high school students verbally assaulted, and come to the conclusion that there are certain attitudes that are tolerated in College Station. That's not an "institutional cover up." That's an institution.
 
^^^^^^ now they are shooting at each other.




Look, Baylor has their own problems...on that we ALL agree. The difference is, Baylor (allegedly) tried to cover up their misgivings. The law and the courts will settle this sooner or later.

The entire aggy fan base is just turning a blind eye to this....

Of course. Because that's what they do. They expect nefarious behavior on the part of others. That's how their minds work.

Same goes for blatant racism.
 
I didn't hijack anything. I just thought a Baylor fan calling something disgusting right now was pretty rich. I would think the same if Penn State pointed out Baylor's problem of players raping women and covering it up, as I believe raping children and covering it up is worse. Even though they kicked Oakman out, and you picked him up. My goodness, even the Sandusky's thought this guy was a thug.

Sorry I offended you by calling multiple rapists thugs, maybe I should have called them misunderstood victims of there sexual desires. You seem to think calling a thug a thug is a bad thing. You are blind. 5 suspected rapists out of a team of 100 or so seems bad to me.
I also called this Daniel guy a pathetic douche bag. Because that is what he is. I'm not taking up for him, screw him. Are those also loaded words?

I won't take up for this bigot, who no one has ever heard of or cared about. He is 1 of 50K students. He is not alone, there are obviously plenty more douche bags in that 50K. He is a nobody. Burn him at the stake, I don't care.

Calling a word loaded is so soft. Don't call our rapists thugs, it's a loaded word. Be better than that.

Not exactly sure what we are supposed to do. I think this guy is a sad piece of shit. If it is legal, kick him out of school. If it is not, what can be done? Seriously, other than say he is bad, what can be done? He is not on any team I know of. No coach had any clue he was doing this, or had even ever heard of this guy. What would you do if a Texas fan was doing this crap? Not sure how you punish him. He deserves his 15 minutes of fame. But I doubt he is enjoying it.
 
He is definitely not alone in the aggy fanbase. I've seen multiple aggy threads in the recent past talking about doing these "false flags" on social media to influence recruiting. Hell, that's all bathroom boy's job is, to use false propaganda to get recruits.

And don't forget the racism. Stop the lying and racism in your fanbase. That would be a start.

All very large groups of people has liars and bigots. Saying get rid of all liars and bigots in a group of 50K is like asking for peace in the middle east. Texas has liars and bigots as well. Hell, we have all lied. The racist crap is not good, but hopefully it will continue to lessen with every generation.
 
I'm not saying all aggys are racist. But it's definitely prevalent in your fanbase and is very noticeable. To say it's akin to what UT experiences is completely false.
 
Racism exists everywhere; even in liberal bastions.

This is true.

My only argument is that instead of trying to point the finger, so that you don't have to talk about this crazy Ag Daniel and his reprehensible actions......what you should be doing is calling him out and distancing yourself from racism PERIOD.

Don't say "everyone does it" as a defense. And don't say "you are more racist than we are or you have more of these crazies than we do". When the story is about this crazy guy and his nutty actions. Nothing else, nothing more. Don't deflect as a defense. Don't point the finger at anyone but him and then if you want to bash anything, bash his actions. End of story.
 
You win..
You're not a rapist, and I am not a catfishing racist. Too bad we both have these pieces of crap associated with schools we love. It'll be another school embarrassed tomorrow, hope it isn't us.

No winners today.

Won't deny that. It certainly exists FAR more in places where it's condoned however. Like College Station.

aggys aren't upset that this racist POS is one of them, just that he got outed publicly.
 
You know the funniest part of this racist aggy's (redundant) whole faceplant of trying to imitate a UT fan to recruits? It was obvious it was a lie. UT fans don't talk that way. It was obvious it was a racist $EC klan member.
 
Sorry, didn't want to hijack thread. Just disagree with you.
Just listen to yourself. Your contention is that racism is ESPECIALLY prevalent in liberal bastions where it is looked down upon as opposed to redneck hovels where it is openly celebrated. Make a ton of sense.

This may be the most ignorant post ever put on the internet. Do you think before you type? Or hit keys like a drunken monkey?

aggy logic...1% is same as 90%

I forgot that this stuff isn't condoned in Austin. Saying this guy is an idiot would be redundant. You are the people pigeon-holing an entire fan base because of one person.

One person. Ha. You forget we know aggys.

Of course you're going to say he isn't one of you once he's outed publicly as an ugly human being racist POS. Of course. Externalize your failures. Human nature.

Weren't there a group of black kids very recently verbally abused by racist aggys (redundant) on your stinking campus? Out in the open? Nah, that sort of thing isn't condoned in collie station. Got it.
