Consider yourself warned!

We don't like getting phone calls warning us that if a certain poster doesn't stop attacking _____, they may be subject to bodily harm should the person being attacked find out who is doing the attacking.

There have been two recent deaths in the HBCU community resulting from a disagreements that have gotten out of hand.

We would rather ban offending posters rather than shut down the entire forum.

Awful. Not that Serious....

[DRUMMA1]

Its really not that serious.  People get way too sensitive over what is posted about their school, political party, and philosophies.  Sheesh.

Awful. Not that Serious....

There is no such thing as reality, only an individual's perception of what is taking place.

What may not be serious to you, could be perceived as very serious by someone else.

Two deaths, It should never come to that, I've been called bad names before on this board by some TU posters just because I have said many times on here that coach Slater has done a very poor job of recruiting in his six years as Tuskegee University head football coach and it is the truth. but all coaches get talked about, good or bad ones... and as a sports fan, you do have freedom of speech. But to kill someone about their opinion on this boad about comments he or she makes about a football team or any sports team is really sad... .....................................

Perhaps the deaths shouldn't have happened but they did!

Freedom of speech doesn't give one the right to scream "fire" in a crowded theater.  There can be consequences associated with exercising one's "right" to speak freely.

I think it would be a crime to scream fire in a public place... OW I'm talking about sports only, freedom to call out a coach if you won't to, most of them will tell you that it comes with the job and they don't take it personal..

Some public figures, like coaches, don't understand that their work is subject to criticism so their perception will be different than those who understand that criticism comes with the job.

 Well if that's the case, then they should'nt have that type of job in the first place, but I understand where you are coming from...

WHAT?

And some of us want to call others hoodrats? Come on y'all...we are better than this. All of us are grown (or suppose to be) and college alumni. We need to act like it. There is a difference btwn teasing/joking and threats. Threats are outside of all dignified boundaries...
