CT88's crap have been deleted, and understandably so. Just trying to figure out why he hasn't been deleted himself. Disgrace.

Instead of "look what some dude on a free Internet message board posted"
Clearly had an agenda.
I dont know the whole thread but I have no pRoblem with what ctt posted. Except, I think everyone should get their azzess to the voting booth, not just black people. I consider voting an obligation , not just a right.

CT88's post essentially said its black people's fault that the KKK is rallying. And you have no problem with that? Nor do you have a problem with the derogatory manner in which he approached it?

Here's a novel thought, if CT88 hadn't posted that crap, it wouldn't be a problem.

CT88 is the one who started the issue. If you're even remotely trying to defend that or play some sort of devil's advocate, then you should be ashamed of yourself as well.

It's getting blasted out on Twitter. The damage is done. It is nice to see that the vast majority of TigerNet agrees it was unacceptable. Hopefully Shaq Lawson will see the same, and perhaps view this as making it better, not worse.
Making it worse would be agreeing with CT88's nonsense. HTH.

Every stupid thing that everyone says doesn't necessarily need nationwide attention.

I don't think it says anything about anyone-except the original poster. His words speak for himself.
How did anyone, or all of us, become responsible for "calling someone out" for something stupid they say or do? Often, not responding and simply ignoring something is enough.
I don't know about you, but I have neither the time nor the inclination to be the internet thought police, and I'm not about to attempt to punish others for what they say or think. Why would anyone do that?
So back to my original question: So did sending it out to everyone make anything better?

I just checked it out... Didn't know it made it all the way to Twitter. Looks like the guy sent the screenshot to a number of former and current players. Absolutely disgraceful and I'm glad to finally meet someone on this board who thinks the same. Everybody else was ignoring it

Is it being alleged that the post in question was racist against black people? If so, how? The post references more black people should have voted (essentially), and then goes on to say that all white people are KKK. If anything, it was racist against white people.

it can be both....
One part he said is accurate though if said in a non ####### manner.
The African American turnout this election was MUCH lower than 4 and 8 years ago. That could have made a difference in some of the really tight states.

Who knows because internets. Much more controversial to think it's a white guy in his boxers posting from his parents basement. Could be a racist. Could be a black guy speaking his mind freely. Could be a white woman. Could be an unemployed troll from the Hillary campaign. Could be a coot. Most likely a coot troll.
Derogatory either way and ban-worthy. Unless black. Then you're a racist for not letting him be. Or whatever. Getting a headache contemplating all scenarios, reactions, and consequences.
I do know I heard the same sentiment stated, much more politely, on MSNBC Wednesday morning.

Mods moved it here actually. So take it up with them. While you're at it, ask them as I did why CT88 isn't also "out of here."

I'd like that explanation as well. Mods took the time to move this post, so hopefully they'll also take the time to legitimately answer my question as to why CT88 still has an active account.

Oh no someone said something racist! What are we gonna do?!?!?
You race baiters need to man up, grow some balls, and do something with your life....
I can remember MANY, MANY times growing up that I was discriminated against and stereotyped because of my skin color....and I'm a white boy....
There are racist everywhere in every group, political party, fan base, business....you name it....

He claimed our president was a secret Muslim from Kenya.

That's a start. You think Obama's skin color had anything to do with the disrespect? Trump said enough about numerous people though, where there is no defending him in that regard. He is our president now though and I support him 100%. There is a level of dignity all presidents should carry themselves with. Hopefully he will learn to carry himself with some dignity and class. My gut is that he will carry himself better as president now that the election is over. I hope so. I remember the class that Ronald Reagan carried himself with. That's how a president should carry himself. I am hoping Trump will step up his game. I think he will.

So nothing....he's said nothing in any way shape or form that is deragatory towards African Americans....
Politicians say all sorts of things about each other. Him attacking Obama does not make him racist.
I agree that Trump needs to learn what he can and can't say, but you would think he was suggesting deporting blacks along with the illegal immigrants....
His policies if they actually happen will immediately be better for low income minorities than Obama's ever were, but because of the race baiters and people with their agendas against him they don't even realize it.

To start, someone needs to take his twitter account away from him. Second, provide him with an ample supply of duck tape so he will keep his mouth shut. Third, get him a #### new hair piece. You would think a billionaire could afford a decent one.
