I loathe political correctness.
Would it have been okay if they would have simply mentioned Michael Sam's male companion licks icing off of his face?

Agreed. Free Speech in the service of Incorrect Thought is wildly over-rated. When we have an opportunity to "chill" free speech we need to take advantage of that opportunity. We are either committed to being sensitive to other people and embracing values such as tolerance and diversity or we are not.
When we identify dissent (like this offensive banner) that opposes our new norms and orthodoxy, we must stigmatize those who are guilty of said speech crimes in any way we can. Until our Fundamental Orthodoxy has 100% public acceptance, we must use every weapon in our disposal to crush those who have a different perception of free speech, satire, parody and objective political inquiry.
Shall we move FORWARD together?

Serious question: Why were the campus gays and lesbians (Spectrum) offended by the banner? Why are gays/lesbians offended by all mention of what gay sex actually is?
Is is because saying that he is getting the D makes him out to be whorish?
If you said that about a woman, that she is "getting the D" that would be offensive. Is it because it describes the act or because it makes it look like he is whoring around or because we should not talk about such things out in the open? Or, is it because his sexuality was mentioned?
I am not saying that they SHOULD NOT have been offended. It was a stupid, crass sign and the Dekes should stop it. They are morons. But, I often wonder why people are offended when they are offended. What was it about the sign that offended them? It gives insight into how to handle things in the future.

Our country is mortified of sex. On both sides of the coin (gay and straight).
When you throw the gay factor into the pot, it's a free-for-all of outrage.
I'm a huge proponent of gay rights and gay marriage, but this whole thing is a fricking joke. People need to lighten up.

Kent State massacre was over 40 years ago. It was a joke, get over it.
Michael Sam is gay. What is wrong with the sign? Is it wrong to say both LSU and Anthony Jennings are going to get the V tonight?

You obviously haven't been around the last 15 years or so because LSU has been making a strong effort to destroy the Greek community.

Is it to much to ask that our students and fans show a little class. Why do we feel the need to publicly act like low class rednecks? You guys talk about gump fans being the worst then act the same way. Unbelievable

I wonder what the university threatened them with. This wasn't an uncoerced decision.

Thanks baby boomers. Thanks for being the worst piece of shite generation ever.

What's also funny is the doom and gloom over a banner being taken down.
Maybe some of you need to chill out as well.

Upvote.
Asking is insufficient. We must demand. Only when offensive Hate Speech is eliminated will our societal project be complete. Juvenile , offensive Satire that dissents from our new, prevailing Orthodoxy should not be allowed. I applaud LSU, and I applaud you for demanding that others behave according to the prevailing thought. Dissent is dangerous.
