Why did it take Caitlyn Davis so long to speak up? Why did a national championship winning coach resign in the middle of the night and skip town? It's also hard for colleges because do they want to admit they hired somebody like that and damage their reputation, not just for wrestling, but for everything? I bet that less than half the people who post here couldn't tell us that coach's name without reading about it or looking it up. But SOU protected their brand. So that's why things like this happen.

That's not the point. The point is the racism and dislike of Natives. You don't have to say we didn't kill enough to show your dislike of them.

Trump isn't exactly a fan of them either. "In 2000, he and Donald Trump went after an Indian casino in upstate New York that was stealing business from (aka competing with) Trump's casino in Atlantic City. So they set up a fake "family values" group and ran a series of racist ads against Native Americans, calling the Mohawk tribe a bunch of crooks by falsely linking them to organized crime. Donny and Roger's punishment? A $250,000 fine."

Oh look it's somebody who has an opinion that doesn't matter. How nice.

That isn't what I was getting at. We have a problem with ignoring things that coaches or good wrestlers do because of who they are. We have things like this going on where nobody really steps up to say anything because of who he is. https://www.lehighvalleylive.com/news/2015/08/cuvo_im_100_percent_not_guilty.html People in the wrestling world are very forgiving of very good wrestlers and coaches.

Not that the far right really has to hide their dislike of minorities anymore.... https://www.yahoo.com/news/ann-coulter-draws-outrage-over-013656786.html?guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAGsFikWVWcdzBFyZXFOkAFlsdouaTRs8nGB8I0oVE3SWuO9Mb8qVjduPrmfn2onQZU7F_UGbL9IHnTbrufOJ0Kdo__U1w1ZXfD9RToJLklXIxHCSI6duqELBh_Mk9esuiWx-87SJArZJHUf0H1vOr9aDgXX4W-LY3Uwsr_jfdXbR

She did. Under oath. In front of Trump's lawyers.

The. Website. Is. A. Satirical. Website. This. Is. Not. A. Real. Situation.

If it is why didn't Trump sue over it? He's particularly litigious. He's sued people for a lot less.

Yep. No list here at all.

Don't be so obtuse. One of them testified under oath about it, so it's not like there is any doubt about it.

It's a satirical website. It's not something that really happened.

I think the line is saying or doing things that go against what most people would consider civilized behavior. Like not handling criticism, telling kids and parents who ask for a reasonable accomodation for something that they are weak and should leave or other non printable things. Then when people on social media talk about them, interrupt and threaten to assault them. You know things like that. I had one now deceased youth coach threaten to sue me and send me harassing messages because I told him he was a conspiracy theory crank (which he was). Then he told me that he knew all of these famous wrestling people and he could do whatever he wanted because of that.

I can't imagine why else he'd pay off a porn actress. Eliot Spitzer got shamed out of office for frequenting prostitutes and only got outed because Trump's best friend Roger Stone frequented the same sex club one of the prostitutes Spitzer had been with happened to work at.

I'm pretty sure paying somebody for sex is against the law.

The guy in Idaho who just ambushed and murdered 3 firefighters.

Must be why he was secretly paying off porn stars into the 6 figures.

How did anyone get into talking about reparations? I definitely think that it's something that should be looked at, but not just by handing out cash for past wrongs. Because racism didn't stop when slavery was abolished, and it even goes on into the present day whether you think so or not. The government, both federal and local, did lots of messed up things to set black Americans back.

Channeling my Scouts Honor here. You mean Trump lied about having trade deals already set up?

No but stop protecting people because they are a good coach or wrestler. People ignored Perry and his antics. It happens at all levels too. I know one highly regarded youth coach who was a complete psycho and I'm actually surprised he was allowed around children at all with his behavior. But a lot of his kids won so him being like that meant if you didn't want to be belittled and been subjected to his mood swings and erratic behavior, then you just weren't tough enough. That is more the norm than it isn't.

They are subject to some laws, but mostly not. I know they are notorious for ignoring parking tickets.

I didn't realize how seriously they took it there. Many years ago I was friends with somebody from Austria. And I made something of an offer color joke that referenced the Nazis. They turned white with shock and explained nobody made jokes like that and expressing those kinds of ideas is extremely frowned upon in Austria and Germany. Even if it is a joke. They take that very seriously. They don't have much humor about that at all because they view it as being a very tragic part of their history and want it to be taken seriously, not treated as a joke.

Anyone who lives in the US is subject to our jurisdiction. Unless you know some kind of sovereign citizen loophole.
