Hey folks - as a member of the DawgNation community, please remember to abide by simple rules of civil engagement with other members:
- Please no inappropriate usernames (remember that there may be youngsters in the room)
- Personal attacks on other community members are unacceptable, practice the good manners your mama taught you when engaging with fellow Dawg fans
- Use common sense and respect personal differences in the community: sexual and other inappropriate language or imagery, political rants and belittling the opinions of others will get your posts deleted and result in warnings and/ or banning from the forum
- 3/17/19 UPDATE -- We've updated the permissions for our "Football" and "Commit to the G" recruiting message boards. We aim to be the best free board out there and that has not changed. We do now ask that all of you good people register as a member of our forum in order to see the sugar that is falling from our skies, so to speak.

Dude what the hell does this even mean?
Keep it on topic please.
It means he drank the Kool-Aid
Well, this whole thing started because he got caught in a lie he used to justify attacking another poster and is deflecting now, but the top part is a dehumanization of people fleeing violence and poverty. It's easier to justify turning away animals instead of people. Your guess is as good as mine on the bottom because it doesn't make any sense. He probably just got flustered
Last warning, keep the thread on topic or it will be closed. Feel free to start a separate "I'm going to change someone's political views on the internet" thread if you'd like.
Umm. Is this thread still a thing? I’m not for any kind of censorship and am all for airing one’s opinions but when an already subpar thread devolves into politics I’m out.
I think people are watching for the carnage at this point
I like Chip's articles and he's somehow gotten a bad reputation with some fans.
I agree. I realize the site is Dawgnation but that doesn’t mean I expect every story to conform to my views on what should be written. The AJC/Cox/Dawgnation is a business. Having seen the massive turnover in the sports media world over the last decades I’m quite sure that if Dawgnation was losing clicks due to the the majority of Dawg fans being driven off by supposed anti-UGA bias from one of its writers, they’d reassign him.
I’m not getting into the politics morass but it’s pretty obvious that some are angered when a news source doesn’t pat them on the back and tell them what they want to hear. I guess that’s drifted into “sports news” too. Kinda sad if you ask me. For the record I’m not saying that OP or anyone else doesn’t have the right to dislike Chip or criticize him, but that it’s going a bit too far to call for his job because he doesn’t tell you what you want to hear all the time or because he doesn’t bow down before the G all the time.
People get mad at the messengers when they don't bring good news. It's unfortunate
Am I in the right place? GO DAWGS!!
I am not the one who made this thread about politics. The liberals made this about politics, including a liberal moderator. Now my comment is deleted. This was all civil.
The deleted comment was not insulting. It only made a counterppint to the illogical point being presented that undetected illegal immigration is down - you can’t count “undetected” people, duh
Fess up. Which one of you is responsible? Ive read in the past that you folks will own up to deleting comments. Let’s see if you’re up to it. Last comment in the thread was political - BY A MODERATOR.
Edit: @teddy has sent me a message for being off topic. Will he also delete the others off topic, including his fellow moderator?
I deleted your comment and private messaged you. You were the first to chime in after the second warning. This thread will now be closed. If someone wants to start a political/off-topic thread go for it.
