I didn't know we were allowed to post pics in threads. Funny but I have been told I wasn't allowed to do that. Guess you are.

The Penn State guy was not part of the coaching staff but someone who was allowed to use the facilities. The person I blame the most was the guy who actually SAW, not hearsay, but SAW a kid being molested and walked away.

Here the link to the How to thread that the board owner posted on how to post a picture: notmsnmoney.proboards.com/thread/1236/post-pictureI would say if the person Karma (formerly known as Moonbeam) didn't want us to post pictures, she would not create a thread that specifically teaches how to post pictures. Perhaps you simply misunderstood something that you were told. |

There are pictures posted in threads all over these boards! The only pictures that are not allowed are photoshopped pictures of famous people, people purported to be board posters, pictures not PG13, etc. If you'd pay attention to something meaningful here and there, you'd know that. Look around before you sound off! mmhmm, Administrator |

Paul is absolutely right. Liberalism can take facts or situations and literally paint them to be anything that suits their agenda. Punching a cop in the face and accosting a clerk in a convenience store = good. Wife beating = bad, but they aren't sooo concerned about Ray Rice but about punishing the NFL and trying to discredit football which is the REAL agenda. why would liberals want to punish the NFL?  |

Wife beating = bad, but they aren't sooo concerned about Ray Rice but about punishing the NFL and trying to discredit football which is the REAL agenda. There's no question in my mind that Barry McMomjeans hates "jocks" in general, but especially professional sports leagues because he has a deep seeded resentment of success in general, but he perceives professional sports as a symbol of the irrationality of markets, throw in that it's perceived as being as run by rich white guys, is dominated by the strong, physically, and mentally gifted who have received their talent and treasure unfairly and in the zero-sum-game of the left- at the expense of school teachers and climate researchers-- and you've got a rich target in the NFL. No doubt he sees professional sports as a "waste of resources", a bastion of American cultural hedgemony . The reason I like sports is the reason so many leftists hate it. i have said it before: this is the stupidest reason i have ever heard for liking something. but since you are so keen on this idea, why don't you take a bath in human waste every night, and saw off your fingers. leftists hate those things too.  I've said it before, I'll say it again- liberalism is an ideology at war with nature itself. It resents winners, and extols losers- without giving much thought to the "why". wrong. individualism is a liberal idea, and competition doesn't exist without it.Sports, however, seem particularly arbitrary. Having not been a jock myself, I relate to the frustration of being humiliated by guys that win for no other reason than that they are stronger, faster, better coordinated, etc. Nature just dealt some people a better hand in a very narrow area of life. Dealing with this can be tough at times, but it can be a lot tougher if you come with the standard mental imbalance of your average left wing loon. In sports- for the most part there's a beginning, and there's an end, there's a winner, and there's a loser. And while there are rules and regulations, referees, instant replays, and even handicaps in some sports-- sports contests are by and large not weighted for "fairness", and they are not litigated, except unofficially by drunken bar patrons, after the fact-- and even drunken bar patrons are eventually have to accept the outcome. Winners win, and losers lose. The winners are not later brought down arbitrarily, and points are not "redistributed". Liberals know sports are a perfect metaphor for the way life really works, and that represents an enormous threat to the entire liberal ideology. i know a lot of liberals that do, in fact, hate sports. but not for any of the reasons you describe. and i know liberals that LOVE sports. i think we can both agree that dondub is about as liberal as we get on this board, and you would be hard pressed to find a bigger sports nut than him. |

My late husband was liberal (hadn't always been, but was the last 10 years we were married). He lived and breathed professional football. I know conservatives who don't like sports or only like certain sports and I know liberals who feel the same way. Why the heck some people figure they have to put everyone in a little box with a label on it is a mystery I'll never understand. Maybe that's the only way they can find anyone.  |

Personally, I don't see what happened in the elevator as "domestic violence" on his part. She attacked him. He stopped her attack. One hit, attack over. If anyone is guilty of DV in that, it's her.
I will NEVER, EVER advocate for violence against women. BUT, when a woman attacks first, self defense is allowed... up to and including eliminating the possibility of continuation of the attack. It's completely HER choice to accept the possible consequences if she want's to START something.

Oh bull. There is a double standard because there Should be a double standard. Men should not hit women. Period. A man can physically dominate a woman 99 % of the time. And a man could kill with one punch. Her hitting him is like swatting a fly. So he could have walked away and or called 911 and had the cops pick her up. He choose to strike back.
A civilized society requires men to be in control of their physical strength.

At his size, and with his physical strength and capabilities, he IS a weapon. Sorry, but he could have done several things to stop the nonsense. He chose to clock her and drag her halfway out of the elevator like a sack of offal, leaving her on the floor. Whatever he gets, he deserves. MOO |

Just because someone half my size decides to make an arse of herself doesn't mean that gives me the right to damage (and, possibly, kill) that person. I have responsibility for MY responses. If there's something else I can do to stop the nonsense, that's what I'm responsible to do. You don't just annihilate whatever gets in your damned way. Use your head before you use your fists. You're welcome to your opinion, but I'll maintain mine. It's served me well for 72 years. If I can avoid trouble, I do so. |
