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.

Something is really bothering me about Dawgnation

I can understand what you are saying, but respectfully disagree.. if you take the entire rule at face value it never says that these types of threads are forbidden. Like any thread, if it gets out of hand, it needs to be taken care of. I also understand that some things are left to the mods to decipher. However when a thread get 5 posts deep (with 4 of those posts coming from 2 individuals) and is closed, then that is (in my opinion) outside the boundaries set forth in the rule. Again, I would advocate for a single "political" thread pinned at the top of the forum for this type of discussion. That way, if you want to keep politics out of your sports, don't open the thread.
I noticed you go an up vote from quick draw Mc @Kasey so I pinned him here so he could see my response.
Where is the censorship? No posts have been altered or deleted.
This thread is surprisingly calm and mature. I hope it stays that way. I keep hearing "we need to have a conversation" from politicians regarding this topic...but it rarely happens.
........
Yep. It's as divisive as it ever was, and the politicians from both sides are adding fuel to the fire. Seems to me they don't want a solution, wonder why that is.
It's what the world does Tex. It's the precedent set. Have to protect those that can't handle hearing differing opinions. They might gasp begin to understand. We will all get our sensitivity classes soon. Oh well, back to your music thread 😁
I disagree wholeheartedly. I have seen owners of companies face the ire of cancel culture due to their conservative beliefs. My God, the phrase “cancel culture” was originated because of butt-hurt liberals. The tolerant left is tolerant as long as your beliefs fit into their little box. If not YOU ARE A RACIST BIGOT/UNCLE TOM, FOOL. Case is point, the African American culture and their views on Herschel Walker. You’re making this too easy.
Crap...
3...2...1...
Except one side is not destroying cities, intimidating citizens, and threatening to "burn it all down" if they don't get their way.
Herschel is still the 🐐
You're viewing that statement with a small scope. One side feels they have been suppressed, repressed, and oppressed for hundreds of years.
Down vote for this? Cowards.
Fair enough. We disagree about this, but I bet we can agree that America would be a better place if we all watched that clip of Herschel running over Bill Bates every day...
@pgjackson .. @BoroDawg
While I may agree with some of you premises ... please dial it back a few notches or we will give them the ammo needed to close it down.
Thanks
