re: Gratuitous profanity from the student section is trashy and unnecessary

After your melt last night and this, you sure come off as a nerd.

You obviously don’t have young children. They are constantly exploring and learning from the world around them. They hear words and repeat them. You may think it’s funny to hear a young child use foul language but no it’s trashy.
No I don't have young kids, hence why I will say whatever the hell I want.

Lol Disney movies have sexual references. Music they listen to talks about sex and drugs.

Maybe we’ll luck out and people will stop wasting tickets on kids who aren’t loud?
By the time your old enough to go to a big time LSU game you should already know what sucking d means.
Ask ANY teacher in 6th grade what kids talk about these days.
Man up and quit being naive about what your kids know these days.

I bring my 5 year old to the game. He knows the one golden rule; "You never repeat what you hear at the LSU game".
You have the right approach but to the others...
It's your right and your job as a parent to instill the values and enforce the discipline that you see fit, it's not your right to tell other people how to conduct themselves or enforce your values on others. I mean seriously, where do you get off telling other adults how to talk because you don't want your kids to hear something? Your right to not be offended doesn't trump my right to speak. You not wanting your kids to hear something is a you problem, not an us problem.
I have kids too and I let them say whatever they want because in the grand scheme of things it's really just not that important. I'd rather focus on teaching my kids how to be good people, be responsible, be accountable, learn how to love and treat people the right way. We can only ask so much of our kids so I'd rather save it for the things that are actually important in life and not using certain words that certain people find offensive just isn't. Especially considering as they get a little older theyre going to use those words anyway like the rest of us. It's a truly wasted and fruitless effort on the part of parents and often just damages the relationship and causes of lack of respect due to enforcing arbitrary rules.
I'm one of the few people under 50 that still spanks their kids. I catch a lot of grief for it yet the same people who don't spank their kids will punish their kids for uttering "curse" words. If I were to start spanking my kids for saying curse words how could I logically justify corporal punishment for vocalisations? It's a truly absurd endeavor.
My kids are sweet, intelligent, loving, fair children and yes, they curse.
Sticks and Stones my niiggas, sticks and stones.

Wow, some have really turned this into a grand scandal for which the university and the people of Louisiana will have to reckon. Good luck trying to censor thousands of college students. I attended LSU in the early 90s and I still remember Jordy Hultberg taking the mic at an LSU basketball game to give us a lecture on morality for chanting "a-hole" during a song. The "scandal" has been going on for quite some time. So, good luck trying to clean it up. You will have just as much luck trying to clean up the language in music, film, literature, and your own home. If you are offended by the chant (while I am not, I understand how many would) and your children ask about it, use it as a teachable moment.
If the chant offends you because it is not becoming of your school, LSU. I get that too, but LSU will always be much, much bigger than a "dirty" chant at a football game. At this point, no one in the national media is talking about it, nor have they ever been talking about it. Only through our tired, moral ramblings do we make it a thing, one that exists only in our worlds beyond a Saturday night.
Well said.

See, this is where we get crossways.
1) are you saying that there are no societal
standards for behavior in public at all?
2) my whole point is that, while I don’t find that this cheer created any real issue for me as a parent, that is exactly the opposite of respectful, accountable behavior. If you strive to teach your kids to be that kind of person, you must value that behavior. Yet here you are saying that a group of people bears no responsibility to society as a whole and can conduct themselves however THEY see fit without regard to how others feel about it? You don’t see any contradiction in that?

“Chants and cheers that blatantly offend rather than inspire do not represent what LSU is all about,” Alleva said in the statement. “Be relentless. Be loud. But, I’m asking our fans, and particularly our student section, to keep it clean. We have a diverse group of fans in the stadium and every week we represent the entire LSU family on national television. Let’s represent LSU with the pride and class it deserves.”
Alleva isn’t the only LSU figurehead to call for an end to the explicit lyrics.

I think it's time to accept that the LSU fanbase is trashy, especially the students. They weren't raised well and it shows.
Men have always used course language around one another, but until this generation it was never acceptable around women or children. Now the pretense of class is gone and anything goes. This thread is a great example.
Better to just accept it and move on. You can't raise other people's children for them.

You can't make idiots stop being idiots so I won't try.
It's very white trash, ghetto whatever you want to call it and does not reflect well on the people of Louisiana. Not that most Louisianians' care. It's embarrassing that people think it's somehow cool to sing. I wish the gumps were singing it instead of my beloved fellow Tiger fans.

Two of these are not like the other. The fact that most of y'all can't differentiate is part of the problem. Two of them
Two of them are considered assault and will land you in jail with a felony record. The other one will just get some chuckles.

This is it in a nutshell. And to be honest, I can live with the vulgar chants. It doesn’t really bother me. I just think it is stupid and classless. I have a much bigger problem with all the people on here trying to justify it and trying to make everyone see it as “normal“ and “acceptable“
It kind of cracks me up that they think they are on the moral high ground. I’m sorry - just say that you like being trashy in public events and you don’t care one bit who might be offended by it. But don’t tell me that I’m the one off base.

If you google "LSU vulgar chant" the story is on cbssports and was picked up by a PA news source. It's also on local news media.
That's enough and so is the chant.

I was at the game and not with students. It was the same.
So quit blaming everything on the students.
