Black jerseys to be auctioned (merged)

[theFallGuy]

When you DIVERT...yes. Understand the word divert. Think of consolidate. Maybe that will help.

i still disagree with u. None of that will help inner city black living in my town. They are a majority of the victims of violent crime.

I agree with the pain and anger in the black community that you see ,and we all see and have seen on TV for years . Unfortunately youve never seen a white man get killed on TV by the police . So understandingly you can't see the angrish of all the white families. See I think the police have been set up since 9-11 to be a police state ,so I am with the reform the police policies..

This is BS. White people are killed by police many times more than blacks

So you are calling him a liar? Go tell him in person or gtfoh.

I'm calling him human.

 

[clarksvol00]

He might be.

But I think the scene has been set. We've seen reactions to fairly innocuous statements from seemingly good people (Brees). It wasnt good.

So at this point I'm not sure you're getting a ton of honesty in the world.

I'm not in the locker room and I don't know Pruitt, but he seems like a straight forward guy who cares about his players. I think if he didnt mean what he was saying or didnt support the players' conversation, he wouldnt have said anything or made some noncommittal statement. It's not like there are other coaches in the SEC saying these things and putting pressure on him to follow suit.

Idgaf about the Middle East. But since you bring it up let’s move to the sh** hole continent of Africa.

Sad. The inhumaneness. Must be an atheist. Or something.

 

[Rickyvol77]

It is now radical to support not killing black people by police. MY GOD. This is NOT my Volunteer state. Smdh

Don’t be so simple minded

 

[Gandalf]

...and anyone else that supports that racist, police hating organization Black Lives Matter. Demand a refund on your tickets, do not donate to UT and contact any business that advertises with Tennessee football and tell them if they advertise with UT football you will boycott them. Call in on sports talk shows and demand they step down.

No. That is a gross overreaction. While I am not sure if I agree with the actions that are being reported will occur, I will first get the details before doing something wild like grabbing some bricks and burning down the house

Unarmed? Precisely 2x as much. And are 6x the population. Next...

 

[1972 Grad]

Does OP:

1) Cross the street when a black person is walking toward them?

2) Let his daughter date a black person?

I'm going to go on a wild guess and say YES to (1) and NO to (2) . But probably starts every discussion with, "now, I'm not a racist, but...".

And the race card is dealt. Of course, it was dealt in both of Devo's posts. You are really triggered, aren't you?

@lawgator1 what say you? Carrying this thing too far or what?

You are suggesting he is being disingenuous (maybe projecting?) with no evidence. Do you have any support for this or just spouting off?

I have no doubt he cares about his players. That is where much of his success has originated.

I care about my young kids and frame conversations for them for various reasons.

These are young adults though and need some honest perspective. I bet he also believes in policing but wouldnt dare make that a point right now.

Marathoners are a race? They're in a race, not a race.

Good try.

Hardy har dad joke. You lame

I am suggesting he loves his nice job and paycheck.

 

[BIGAL27]

BLM is a racist leftist group!!! To hell with November 7th

 

[Gandalf]

Great! Then you can divert resources to those needs (or maybe address their root causes?). Rather than having militarized police taking on mentally ill, drug, domestic issues, traffic calls. The current system is entirely inefficient.

Maybe you should research the strategies more. You might like them.

I actually think some of those are good ideas and are worthy of discussion.

 

[Devo182]

I am suggesting he loves his nice job and paycheck.

So he is also being genuine? Cool. Then no need to marginalize or denigrate his post as being for selfish reasons.

 

[C-south]

Sad. The inhumaneness. Must be an atheist. Or something.

I think the inhumanness lies with the thugs committing violent crimes every day. That murder people every day. That continue to do it no matter what is done to give them a different life path. As for Africa, you hear everyday of mass murders of Christians or whoever and it’s not by “atheists”.

Maybe, maybe not. We're not exactly valuing honest opinions currently.

It's possible to believe in policing, but also believe in police reform or at least his players' support of it. I understand the BLM organization may not be the best tool for that, but at this point I have no reason to question his motives are genuine.

Because they’ve worked so well so far. Root cause? Nobody wants to talk about that.

Middle East is all violent criminals now? Seems good reason to not care about Jews, Lebanese, Syrians, and so on. Gtofh

 

[dovervolz]

So I guess you to the Breast Cancer events and scream all diseases matter too huh?

No I don’t go to those events. And yes all diseases matter. I don’t discriminate, but apparently you must

@lawgator1 what say you? Carrying this thing too far or what?

I had no idea there was any connection. Unlike, say, the Seminole warchant, which is clearly derived from Native American typology, the Gator chant's association with this seems entirely coincidental.
