I asked you a question on the previous page, about the hyper violence of black on black crime. Please respond. You seem willing to discuss, yet every time that topic is brought up, the same "this isn't the time for that conversation" bullshite is brought up. So again...

I'm glad you can separate the 2. However, what are you doing about it? If you truly believe that black lives matter and the BLM group that are igniting the protests/riots/etc... are 2 different things, then why hasn't someone like yourself, made strides to co opt the movement and push back against the marxists/anarchists? Why not push back against the "we believe in the dissolvement of the nuclear family" types?

And then there is the elephant in the room...why is the hyper-violence of the inner city being ingored? You want "change" and want to protest over the 10 deaths/year by police, but ignore the literal thousands/year of black on black crime. This is why the entire BLM movement is not serious to most people. When you march for "black lives matter" and in that same march a 3 year old girl is shot in the head, or a 1 year old boy is shot and killed in the car, or a father that is walking his 5 year old daughter is gunned down in front of her...WHERE IS BLACK LIVES MATTER?

Uhh, yes they are. LeBron does this on a damn near daily basis.

And if these movements go after the Ragin’ Cajuns nickname and the school gives in? I’m out. Finished.


Not sure if you're aware of this, but back in the late 80's when I first started at USL there WAS a push to get the moniker changed. Not because it was offensive to Cajuns, but because...and I can hardly type this out because it's so stupid...when you reverse the letters in Ragin you get Nigar, which as you know...is not a fricking word. But if you tried hard enough, you could be offended by the sound of it if you felt the need to reads the name backwards for some unknown reason.

In the late 80's, people saw that push and laughed and walked away. Now? Some idiot might actually think it's a good call and necessary...

As for LSU, I'm not an alumnus of LSU but been a lifelong LSU fan and season ticket holder since 2001. I've already paid for tickets for this season but had already planned on no longer attending games this year and selling them because of all of this horseshite. Hopefully the season gets cancelled and they refund my money. After that...there will be two tickets in the EU deck if anyone wants them... Refuse to spend money and support a university and players who openly hate me for immutable reasons. And supporting "anti-racism?" Nah...I'll never support anyone who seeks to place me into a double bind situation and pretend that's ok.

Lol, what is Lebron educating people on? Trying to convince the world he is the greatest ever by telling everyone how great he is. Not to mention trying to make sure everyone knows how great China is...

LeBron is dumber than a sack of hammers but he spews off about how oppressed he is almost every day. There are a lot of kids out there with no father figure who idolize idiots like him, and they believe every word he says.

I'm just using LeBron as an example. You could substitute his name with a number of different names, like Kaepernick, Bubba Wallace Smollett, etc.

On the college level, look at what Chuba Hubbard just did to Mike Gundy. I'm sure he had never heard of OAN until that picture came out, but then he came out and tried to educate everyone on how bad and mean they are.

BLM has a top advisor that is literally a terrorist. Only reason she is out is Clinton pardoned her on his first day. She bombed federal buildings and killed people. Weather Underground.


Who? Dorne? Is she a BLM advisor? You have a link for that?

That’s what happens when groups are created based solely on physical attributes that cannot be controlled and exclude people that don’t fit that description.

Holy shite.

She oversees their funding and fundraising.

A known terrorist that actively advocate for the destruction of the United States and enjoys using violence and death to reach her goal oversees all the money for Black Lives Matter.

Why is this not news? Why is this the first time I'm hearing of this?

And why am I not surprised the Clintons are involved

Which is also a generic sentence that doesnt just represent that group. Which is what you dont get. No matter what that has to do with that organization, most of us, meaning black people, dont associate the two. When we say that its about what it means, not that group. Yall, meaning the groupthink that spawned and fueled this post, dont want it to mean more than what you want it too but thats just not how it works. The university understood that and can separate the two. You cant cause youve chosen not to. Get over what you think when its not actually about you!


I have not said a word about the slogan. What bothers me most are the actions they are recommending taking. They are not based on merit, not based on performance, but simply based on an uncontrollable attribute someone is born with.

I’ve been taught my entire life this is wrong to do, and I will stick by that.

Save your breathe. He was asked the question that no BLM supporter can answer and did what they all do. Disappear.

Sure, Ill respond, its a cop out. You want to tell us we need to fix our own community, treat ourselves better before we ask you too. Problem is for tbe most part we aren't asking you to. This started in asking police to treat us correctly because its their job. Period. The rest of this has come about because that was ignored over the last 7 years and the police deaths continued to happen. Now youre upset because its out of hand cause it was ignored and the choice is to be petty and bring about whats wrong on our part.

Truth is most blacks arent out here killing each other, its not like its gone unnoticed but like anybody, those people control their lives, they want to take part in it, thats them. There have been many conversations with gangs members, gang leaders, communities. You can only do so much in that. There has been stop the violence rallies, meetings all of it but its positive so youre not gonna hear about it but its also simply not affective.

But on the other hand, its not a gang member or blk person job to protect and not kill someone. If thats what youre sworn to do, do your damn job. Its not random white folks job to report blacks doing nothing cause they are suspicious just cause the person is black. Mind your business.

Stop trying to use black on black violence as a scapegoat retort for paid protectors to legally kill people. That is absurd.

If you take the word of our interim president, LSU hadn’t been inclusive, LSU hasn’t been welcoming and LSU hasn’t treated all races fairly. If that’s the case he and the rest of the administration and all the old board members need to resign.
Or is the president just feigning outrage, playing politics and trying to gain politically with the left?

There's a reason police officers are uncomfortable and tense around black people, and it isn't racism. It's statistics and probability. In an officer's mind, if they're willing to shoot and kill babies, they'll shoot and kill police officers without hesitation.

Exactly! And if that is your prejudgment, your prejudice...then you cant protect and serve the very people you fear. You shouldnt be a cop! Thats the ENTIRE POINT!
