The majority of LSU fans don’t post on SEC Rant, TigerDroppings or any other fan site/board. Some fans do, most don’t. You have no idea based on a random group of posters from any school how the majority of fans from any school feel about an issue like this. Don’t be so presumptuous.

Idc, he's entitled to his opinions like all other athletes with that kind of platform, doesn't mean I have to take theirs seriously.

I like burrow because of what he did at LSU on the football. If anyone cares about the opinions of football players in regards to anything that outside of football, they’re an idiot.

Burrow is 23 years old with a Masters Degree from LSU. He's far from the average college student / ranter here. He's from Ohio & is liberal, based on some of his comments the 2 yrs that he was ere in La. But he is not stupid, far from it.

Again, I do not care for his political opinions. He plays football and I like that. I care nothing for his or any other football players opinions regarding anything other than football.

Not a LSU or burro fan, but I would like him more for doing something like this.
I think Kapernick was in it a little too much for himself, but kneeling was not that disrespectful and bringing attention to injustice is a good cause.
Wish some of the bigger name NFL stars had the balls to say something. They didn’t have to kneel if they thought that was too disrespectful, but even doing something to demonstrate solidarity would have been good for our society. Maybe we wouldnt have so much rioting if the last time someone tried to make a statement didn’t result in him being excommunicated from the league...
The hollywood trolls are useless, soul-less vacuums of morality that no one takes seriously because they speak out from their gated mansions. Athletes have a much better platform because most of them come from humble upbringings that cause this bs to hit close to home.

There’s no stacking. You shits don’t have a clue.
Joe Burrow was a person who had money as opposed to some of us that didn’t. Some of us grew up in rural Louisiana and were dirt poor as kids.some of us had to work harder and smarter than others to get a leg up. I take zero shame in disliking people that had money and now I’m one. But I give to less fortunate because I never forgot the place I came from - a very poor community with government housing.
I think he is a tremendous young man and fully support his message because he is right! I have Hispanics and African Americans in my immediate family and want nothing but the best for them all.
Here is why I said Joe really doesn’t understand racism. He hasn’t experienced it because he isn’t from the Deep South.
The racial makeup of the county was 93.48% White, 2.39% Black or African American, 0.28% Native American, 1.90% Asian, 0.02% Pacific Islander, 0.36% from other races, and 1.56% from two or more races. 1.03% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.

If you don't think other states are every bit as racist and classist as the south, you're kidding yourself.

There is very little Joe Burrow can do to embarrass LSU or the SEC that can come close to the complete humiliation Michael Sam brought to Mizzou and the SEC on draft day the year he was drafted. Open mouth kissing another dude, with his mouth full of cake, on national television can’t hardly be topped.
So don’t worry about what could be and don’t worry about LSU. You have your own shame to deal with for embarrassing the conference like you did. Mizzou is not like the rest of the SEC and most of us would just as soon as forget you are even associated with the SEC rather than pay you any attention or recognize you at all.

Why is this cop killing someone a race thing?
It’s a police brutality issue.
Why does it have to be racial?
The cop was white, so what? That cop was likely brutalizing whites, blacks or anybody he arrested.
The problem is that people WANT it to be about race because money can be made out of it, whether race pimps or politicians wanting to show their arse to get campaign donations, race baiting is money. The riots cause people to watch the news, ratings is money.
This is a police brutality issue where a law enforcement officer knelt on a handcuffed person’s neck until he choked him to death.
It isn’t more or less of a human life no matter what color the victim was and the cop is no more or less wrong no matter what color he is.
What am I missing here? Is this not police brutality? Would it be any different if the cop was black and the victim white?
Police brutality is wrong no matter what race. Turning this to a racial issue is not identifying the issue correctly and issuing blame to something other than what the issue really is.
A cop kneeled on a handcuffed person’s neck until he killed him. Color wasn’t part of it. Race has nothing to do with it, unless you have an agenda to promote.
Not treating the police brutality issue and focusing on Race does a disservice to the nation because the issue of police brutality is not properly addressed and race politics takes the spotlight away from making sure cops don’t kill people for no reason other than they can.

While you are correct that police brutality does affect people of all races, you are missing the big picture.
This whole thing is about police relationships with African American communities in general. The fact that a guy was executed in the street was just the tipping point. It also doesn't help that a guy was just murdered in Georgia due to the color of his skin.
There are a hundred little microreasons people are out protesting, but you can't really cover all those in a single sign, so we just get something simple like "BLM".

Classism is NOT racism. We aren’t talking about the LBGT community or any others that have rode the backs of African Americans. You (and I) DON’T know because we don’t share their skin.

I’m not trying to be inconsiderate to Black people or anybody with the post I made. I just see it as a police brutality issue.
Black people have more run in with cops in high poverty areas in cities. White impoverished areas tend to be more rural. In both cases, poor people tend to have more encounters with cops. The dude the cop killed was forging checks. The same kind of shite happens in poor white areas and poor Hispanic areas too.
There is more of a possibility that some black guy being abused by cops in the city will be recorded by someone because there are more people that could be witnesses.
Some white guy being beat down in the trailer park has less likelihood of anyone recording what happened.
Police brutality happens to everyone that the bad cop is in contact with. Groups of people that get arrested more because they get caught breaking the law more often have a better chance of being abused by a bad cop.
If this had happened to a white dude it would have been more likely that it wasn’t recorded and the cop would have said he was resisting with no investigation or any seriousness would have occurred.
Cops have always had a problem with bad apples. They always have taken physicality to the extreme, especially when they had someone cuffed. It’s this that needs to be addressed.
I don’t believe this cop said that since this dude is black I’m gonna kneel on his neck. He probably kneels on every neck of everyone he arrest. This is just the first time he was caught killing someone by doing it. I would bet he has knelt on every color person there is.
This is being made racial because it benefits someone to make it racial. The media blows up the racial part, inflaming the country. Why, politics and money. It benefits the person paying them to do so.
The question is this. If the races were flipped in this case, would anyone be rioting over race or would this be a police brutality issue?
Since we should be striving for a colorblind society, like Dr. king said, why would it matter? Any person wrongly killed is as bad as any other. I would bet that there would be no race riots.
The cop was a bad cop. Bad cops should be the issue, not race. He didn’t kill the guy because the dude was black and he white. He killed the guy because he was brutalizing a handcuffed arrested person. He was a bad cop. Only people that WANT it to be about race, see race in everything, want it to be about race.

To add,
Every person should be just as upset when any cop wrongly kills any American. The color should not matter. An American being killed is simply a dead wrongfully killed American.
A bad cop is a bad cop.
Color doesn’t matter and should not be the sole point of attention. Bad cop kills defenseless handcuffed American wrongly.
That’s the only way to look at it and not be putting race in it. When you put race in it, it promotes its own form of racism.
An American wrongly died. Bad cop. That’s the facts and what should matter.

Changing the subject doesn’t change the facts. You thought you were going to get one on LSU by talking about shite Burrow would do that could embarrass the LSU fan base forgetting about the trashy shite your boy did on live national television.

The idea that racism only exists in the "deep South" is so moronic that it's hard to respond. Ever hear about the racial busing riots in Boston? The way black pro athletes talk about Boston? I've driven through the riot destruction in Chicago. The L.A. riots were on national tv. Milwaukee had its race riots. Cleveland. St. Louis is far from the Deep South. Racism exists everywhere & sad to say, will probably continue to do so. Last time I checked, there was a black police officer killed in Dallas most recently. Obama refused to have the lights in the WH turned blue in respect of those officers killed. Yet, he did have those lights turned purple when Prince overdosed. To repeat, racism exists everywhere, on both sides of the fence.

I didn’t say that I said it’s racist for people to make a police brutality issue out to be race.
Someone else may have said something about race being in the south but that wasn’t me.
