Unfortunately (or not, depending on your perspective) that's not what our constitution (as amended) says.

The virus has given these fools cover...that day is coming to an end. There will be a violent reaction in the other direction. Tick tick tick.

Ok we're getting there...how many crazy leftists do see on tv? Now do crazy cult members/white supremacists. Who has more of a fringe? You're welcome.

So you're saying BLM vote for the same candidates as mainstream Republicans do???
No, not at all. This is yet another example of shitty Rantard logic.

Depends on which channels you watch and how you define each. You're welcome.

I really wish people would stop saying liberals when they mean leftists.


Agreed, but it's a good point. "It's no big deal, just a name change" is the claim. But if it's no big deal, why go through the effort to make the change?

Get ready for a woke lecture in the media guide as well as a pregame video contextualizing the history of the name before the Tigers take the field.


quote:

The Tigers moniker comes from the Civil War era confederate Louisiana Tigers regiment. The Civil War was fought over slavery and the rights of African Americans to live as a free people. While the Union won the war and ended slavery, African Americans still struggle with the burden of racism, including here in Louisiana. Today LSU disavows the past link of our nickname to the confederacy and while for many it can be a painful reminder our nation's struggles, we feel that being a Tiger is an important part of our identity here at LSU. Where being a Tiger means loyalty, honor and service to others of every background. To learn more about how LSU is fighting against racism, visit LSU.edu/SocialJustice.

It appears the left has defined what a white supremacist is for you and it’s an extremely broad definition.

America is not great anymore because we have a bunch of obese bums thinking $575 dollars a week is enough to change their lives and buying 10 shares of stock on Robin Hood makes them money savvy, all enabled by the government to incentivize government dependence within the mindset.
Yeah, that’s not it.

You’re continuing to show your limited understanding of the impact this hire will have on the entire state and not just the 95 acres making up LSU’s campus.



You’re continuing to have a total meltdown over this hire. Things may workout ok. Don’t be so emotional.

iPod has no idea how the “creep” of progressivism works. It’s a fricking disease and now we have a leader that’s going to inflict the university with that same disease top down.

Nice fricking job, LSU.

He literally just said I have no idea what you’re talking about but I guess we’ll look at it, then gave a huge Geaux Tigers at the end.

Also you’re delusional if you think he could make a call like that unilaterally anyway.

This is pathetic spin.

If I’m not mistaken, they just had their largest freshman class in history and retention rates are at an all time high. They are gonna be just fine

This is typical of leftists on this site.

Downplay
Deflect
Declare someone is melting

Rinse and repeat.
