Tired of the fauxrage victimhood complex that people have, especially those that immediately scream the worst only to find out later that’s not what happened at all.  Disgusting.  Those kids weren’t  doing anything racist, but of course we have a bunch of know it alls here and society that insisted they were and calling for their expulsion without any facts or any evidence. Disgusting.  It totally weakens actual fights against racism and other social blights when people don’t gather the information all in their joy ride to try and take others down.  Disgusting

So Port Washington High School is publicly apologizing and opening an investigation just for fun. Got it.

Said it in the golf thread. Chicos on his meds is somewhat bearable. Even Chicos Crean lover is annoying but whatever. Chicos “rich white male are so persecuted it’s insane” ranter makes this place an embarrassment for everyone here.

my god its hard to get more embarrassing than this thread is. and this will ABSOLUTELY hurt us on the recruiting trail if any fan base cares to screenshot this and throw it out there for all to see.

it doesn’t matter if its a facial, if they wanted to make fun of jj for being a softy for getting a facial they wouldve printed the entire photo with his girlfriend on the photo which wouldve made it even more easy to poke good natured fun at. when you zoom it in, cut the girl out it LOOKS like blackface. you think every single one of these kids thought hey this just looks like a facial that we can make fun of him for? heck no! theres a reason his coaches, family, and himself are so mad! theres a reason the school is going to suspend kids for this! if you think this is society just being soft and faux outrage youre just as dumb as the kids who did this!

and why would a racist thing (blackface) be offensive if its on someones face that is already black? are you kidding me?! i can’t believe i actually have to answer that question, but its calling him fake black. he needs blackface to make himself black.

when people talk about how far weve come as a society we need only look at this thread. and it’s a group of adult, jesuit educated people. never been so embarrassed by the mu fan base. what a joke. this thread needs to be entirely blown up.

even if its faux outrage, the kid is upset by it and here we are telling him to get over it. and his friends, kids we will be trying to recruit, will have his back and be pissed at exactly the type of people we apparently are. embarrassing. what a time to do this. 3 players ranked in the top 5 in the country in our back yard and were going to do our best to run them out of the state as fast as we can. nice.

This thread is not our finest moment.

You could have just said "false accusations are bad" without demonizing legitimate social movements.

I could, but then I’d have to say We Must Believe All. (Regardless if evidence exists or not)

I'm just glad we've got so many people here willing to help out this young man by telling him shouldn't be offensive to him.

I’m just glad we have people here ready to cast guilty judgments on kids, kick them out, never go to any more athletic events, etc........  goes both ways.

Surely I am not the only one to appreciate the delicious irony of this statement coming from this poster.      Thanks for the laugh.

Anytime, no different than Sultan, Brew, MU82, etc with the victimhood on parade.

Seriously Chicos. Between this thread and the Kuchar thread we get where you stand. Do everyone, including yourself, a favor and have a glass of wine with the wife, enjoy a nice Valentine’s Day evening, and try again tomorrow.

Our society is horribly divided, but blame belongs on both sides.

On one side, we have racism, MeToo and other allegations that sometimes get taken too far. On the other, we have people condoning outright sexism, racism and xenophobia. And the sentiment comes straight from the top ("very fine people on both sides"; "grab 'em by the pu$$y", etc).

We need some common sense to narrow the gap. Regrettably, I don't sense it coming anytime soon.

Unfortunate.

True, in your examples you forgot the current anti-semitism that comes from some of the new leadership thrust upon us.  It is appalling.....yes, examples on BOTH sides...we agree.   Maybe the rush to judgments should slow down a few mph, just a thought.  A few weeks ago other kids were blamed for stuff and within 48 hours journalists were deleting tweets so fast it was incredible...why...because the COMPLETE information came in.  People are in such a desired state to burn people at the stake...sad.

Sorry going to come and call it out. There are far too many racists here on Scoop. I don't know if they realize it or not. Far more than I saw while at MU. Not teal.

[Archies Bat]

I'm going to suggest to folks that no good can come from any additional dialog.

If I'm a recruit, I'm not sure I'd want to read what's in this thread, valid or not.

BS. You go on with your "oh my stars what will happen when REAL racism shows up?" line of crap, ignoring that this is real racism. And ignoring what you perceive as smaller indications of racism is how society comes to accept large scale racism.

I suppose it shouldn't be a surprise, this crap has been happening more and more blatantly for years now, but I'm sure these kids are "very fine people..."

One group is totally right, one is totally wrong.  The end. 

Best thread ever.
