Did not know that. Thanks for educating me...
KM disagrees. Retarded.If you can't see the fact that no word in our society is as uniquely controversial as the n word you're blind.
Projecting this situation as a huge societal issue is alarmist. There is no other word like that word.
Are you trying to gaslight or is this your honest opinion? The problem is that we are being ordered to respect certain opinions (and make them our own if not already so) while also condemning, even violently, other opinions (and divorcing ourselves entirely from those opinions if they are ones we currently hold).Yes...we are doomed as a society because we are all being asked to respect each others opinions and feelings. Oh the horror!!!
The endless bellyaching on this board/thread is a great example of the very softiosis you claim to dislike.
Ask Lost in the Light. He understands.Coach reprimands player for using the n-word. Coach quotes said player during the aforementioned reprimand. Coach must then apologize for the quote of the offensive term, but the player need not apologize for the actual use of the offensive term? SMH.

You act like we are not equal now. Of course, you probably still think George Floyd was about race even though there is no evidence to support that assertion.Well...if black folks didn't suffer from 250 years of slavery, legislated discrimination, Jim Crow laws, red lining and good old fashioned racism i might agree with you.
The experience of blacks in America has been uniquely terrible...I'm going to give them a little wiggle room on the n word.
If there's a slippery slope it's on the road to equality. And its historicaly been greased by us white folks.

My thoughts and opinions are different than yours... I disagree with everything you say... I'm offended by a lot of what you say and imply... Do you "respect" my opinion? oh the horror!
Lol...yeah the anti fascists are the problem...

You have to ask? Interesting. Here's an example, in the context of the equality discussion, if one does not support the BLM organization, you run the significant risk of being targeted, harassed, even attacked.What opinions do you have that are being condemned?
These "Anti Fascists" are burning piles of Bibles....they are rioting because of anti-fascism...that's a new one. Please answer how we are going to right the wrongs of the past. I'm really curious on your thoughts...
I've seen you state that before. It doesn't take a ton of critical thinking and historical knowledge to know what the death of GF symbolized for many Americans.
Can anyone read that officers mind? Of course not...maybe he was thinking about his dinner plans. But for many of us it was just another awful reminder that black lives are not valued by our society the same as other lives.
You keep hiding behind the lack of mind reading ability though. Its safe there.
More perfect union. Kill all Whites. Burn it Down. Demanding protection money from store owners. Getting rid of police and then charging someone with a felony for showing (not using) a weapon to protect themselves. Painting BLM on streets Ok. But painting Black Babies Lives Matter on the street gets you arrested. Can’t have a funeral due to Covid, but rioting is ok. Stopping traffic and pulling people from vehicles and beating them now seems to be ok. I could go on."Agreed, the Democratic party has really hurt them"
If this is where you need to go...ignoring the last 60 years...you're no longer debating in good faith.
My main point still stands. While this specific situation has elements of irony and hypocrisy your point that it symbolizes an existential problem for the nation at large is not true.
As a nation we are still working toward a more perfect union and these situations are all part of this process we have the responsibility to continue.
In my mind we need to be more concerned about righting historical wrongs than getting hung up on these relatively small issues.
Right, you have no idea if racism was involved or not, but you have concluded it was without any evidence. It is a racist incident merely because you want and need it to be.
America is such a racist nation that we have to invent racism in order to whine about it. Mike Brown, Jussie Smollett, George Floyd are 3 recent examples of this that come to mind which suckered the moronic BLM movement to riot.
These "Anti Fascists" are burning piles of Bibles.
That sure does not sound like Anti-Fascism to me.
Sounds more like Satan's minions.
It's getting VERY easy to distinguish good from evil these days.
Yet you can hardly listen to a minute of rap or hip hop music without hearing itIf you can't see the fact that no word in our society is as uniquely controversial as the n word you're blind.

Yep. Basically Gee and Lyons to some extent should have stayed out of that fray and let HCNB address it internally. Once it got outside of HCNB's office I pretty much expected VK was doomed. Sad sad day in Mountaineer football lore.WVU did it to the best DC we have had in a long time. I'm sorry that was an agreed to separation.
Would you expect anything different when a state repeatedly fails in developing a bold economic strategy? The best and brightest will continue to leave to pursue the American Dream. It doesn’t have to be that way.Hey, why don’t you take all this energy that you put into saying the same things over and over but in cryptic and witty ways and focus on something similar......like the drug and opioid death rate in WV being twice as high as any other state in this country, but with a population of only 1.8 million. White population is 94% so why don’t you focus on this same exact problem where you live instead of handing out advice to people who live in much different environments.....
White people are killing themselves at a huge rate in West Virginia......
You know, shortly after Floyd, I saw a picture of knee on the neck of a white guy. Not saying that is a good practice, but it isn’t just done to black folk.I've seen you state that before. It doesn't take a ton of critical thinking and historical knowledge to know what the death of GF symbolized for many Americans.

Tough to develop anything sound when 18 percent of all private land is owned by 25 absentee landowners. Additionally, in 6 counties the top 10 landowners own more than half the land...not surprising, 5 of those 6 counties are located in the economically depressed southern coalfields.Would you expect anything different when a state repeatedly fails in developing a bold economic strategy?

You have a different lens I heard.MAGA’d as usual.....locked or moved to the alter wacko universe of the OT shortly.....

Like your words.Just saying what most here already know. Same cats. Same words. All the time.
What's the strategy for the remaining 82% of the land? Really, there are reasons and then there are excuses.Tough to develop anything sound when 18 percent of all private land is owned by 25 absentee landowners.

Not me. No words are inherently offensive. If a word can be said and it is not offensive in a particular context, it is not an inherently offensive word. Can words be used offensively? Sure, but that is a different question.Everyone agrees that the n-word is offensive.
After hearing his player use the n-word several times, what if Gary Patterson had not said anything, then simply pulled out his cell phone and tweeted and Facebooked and Instagrammed to his followers how appalled and offended he was that the TCU player was using the n-word?
We live in a society where if you say "all lives matter" you can be shot and killed.I guess the difference is, KM repeatedly brought this back up on Twitter. And I don’t remember any teammates speaking out for him to stay, and trying to calm things down. I was thinking all along that Vic had one small run in (with a player) and got canned. But maybe there is a reason none of the defensive starters squashed it.
