Explain Horns Down. It’s as offensive as flipping the bird or Jack off motion?

It’s crazy how they are offended by the Horns Down salute, but think “Eyes of Texas” is just fine!!

Eyes of Texas meaning- The lyrics of the song have been interpreted as embracing the "Lost Cause" ideology, which advocates the belief that the practice of slavery in the Antebellum South was just and moral.[11][12] This interpretation was based on a tradition that held that UT President William Prather had adapted the phrase from General Robert E. Lee's purported use of the phrase "The eyes of the South are upon you" to advocate Lost Cause nostalgia.

So there fight song is supposedly racist and offensive and they are fine signing that, but are offended by the horns down salute. These slapdicks need to just go to sleep and never wear up again. Tennessee should have just let them become Texas and jsut forgot about them.
