If the conservative students had created a coalition to remove Wolfe from office because of his lack of action on a Planned Parenthood office being allowed to operate, and the players went on strike to support that position.

Everyone of you would be in here today lauding the movement.

It's sad that because this particular cause doesn't fit your worldview it requires your faux outrage.

Some of you are taking the opportunity to let your covert racism be exposed, while others are using it as an affront towards a team/school you already don't like in the conference because "we aren't southern enough".

Wolfe was forced to resign because he didn't speak on events that were occurring not only in Columbia, but on other campuses in the UM system. Leadership starts at the top, and when the man at the top remains silent when asked to speak out for his constituents he's not doing his job.

This isn't about blackmail or the liberal agenda. It's about leadership choosing to stand still on an issue that needed to be addressed. If a group of people feel threatened, they have every right to hope that said threat is addressed in a timely manner.

The fact that it came to this is because of poor leadership. Plain and simple. If Wolfe is out in front of this, addressing concerns, this doesn't happen, and he doesn't lose his job.

I don't think there is one person on this board that can actually speak on the conditions of race relations at the University of Missouri. Not a single one. I'm pretty sure none of you know what it's like to be a minority on campus in Columbia.

I certainly don't, but if these students felt this was necessary, then it was necessary.

Such a movement would never happen in today's society though so your point is moot.

The bottom line is you can't be blamed for what you cannot control.

Stopped reading right here.

It wouldn't be feasible. The coalition would not have the support of the faculty or media.

This is strictly a race issue. They have drawn a false line that you HAVE to side with the black protestors or otherwise you hate black people.

That is why this issue is bad. There is no middle ground. It's why Gary Pinkel had no choice to join them. Either support the protestors, or be branded as a racist black hater and never be able to recruit a black player again.

The movement would have been quickly shot down if it came from conservative players who opposed an organization like Planned Parenthood.

Let me save the rant from reading 8 Boobless paragraphs.

Not liking Planned Parenthood = Not liking Black People

If I had felt caviar and strippers were necessary at UofA's cafeteria when I attended, would it have been necessary?

Two years ago, they were to poster child of "tolerance" for education in this country. It doesn't seem very damn "tolerant" to me.


Mr. Wolfe even said it best. Change is needed, but this isn't the way.

You will fit in well with all the other cry babies of entitlement that exist today. Victimization run rampant. Grow a pair.

Planned Parenthood goons were trying to solicit donations at the entrance of a grocery store last month.

I told them no on the way in, they ask me again on the way out and I tell them to frick off.

They called the cops on me because I was "harassing" them

I actually called their bluff and hung around to wait for the cops to get there so I could watch the police tell the planned parenthood stooges they were wasting their time. And that's exactly what happened.

I could only imagine had I done the same thing at a more liberal friendly setting. Cops wouldn't have been able to do anything still, but the bystanders would have found a way to find out where I work and badger my employer until I got fired.

Here is the video from the parade.

Please tell me which group is threatening, which group could possibly be reasoned with?

You think the protesters there were continually telling their own to "don't give them your etc" means anything other than, don't get into a fight ray ray, it'll look bad.

These people aren't peaceful, and they have no purpose.

So much ado about nothing isn't a possibility? The planned parenthood backers didn't scheme this operation and use the football players as pawns? There is a lot of smoke to this thing being pre planned to advance someones agenda for it not to be true.

This guy is actually 100% right. And, if the shoe were on the other foot, you'd all agree.
