Lol...Wow.
Truth hurts.
And YOU are an idiot.
Breaking one of the 10 commandments is by far as bad as someone's opinions. And people in this society who think they set the moral bar while dismissing many of the 10 commandments are the "Despicable Group".

Are we supposed to be surprised when I warned all to wait to hear the other side? No one called yelling racism hearsay, it was the gospel!

A lot of people jumped to conclusions based on one side of the story. App State shut this thing down to minimize the damage. Little wonder NC A&T slammed to door shut on it so quickly. There are some fights in today's society you can't win. This kid was tried and convicted in the court of social media.

This thing still going? I think honestly the university went way to quick on this one, they basically went with one side of the story and now things look worse once the other side has emerged.

I'll never know what each party said.
But there is evidence that Spencer's actions in high school were in the right place.

Social Justice Warrior. Its one of those conservative terms that has gotten really popular of late on the internet.
This is so educational, have been a proud middle of the road conservative all my life and had never heard of sjw. By the way, anyone belonging to a political party that features Nancy Polosi, should never accuse any conservative of being extreme or less than bright. She is truly a first degree nut.
And you wrongly assume that I have any ties to the democratic party outside of voting for Obama once.
I am a true moderate...someone who hates what both sides of the spectrum has let this turn into, and someone who is deeply concerned about the direction this country is headed.

I assumed nothing about you. It was a general response to the many snide remarks directed towards conservatives. BUT the fact remains, Nancy is a bonifide left wing nut case. "We have to pass the bill (Obama care) in order to know whats in it". And if that isn't enough, she calls $1000 a crumb. Pretty smart stuff there Nancy.

You are the only person here who thinks there is anything remotely racist on this thread. You are alone and on the fringe.
And judging by your hysterical reaction here I can see why no one would want to talk about race unless they agree with you.

I'm also a true moderate. The lines tossed around by conservatives and liberals alike have always been rather predictable. Both sides are being manipulated by a dishonest press. "He's more conservative than he thinks. He must be a trumpster". No, I'm just able to look at things objectively, and not through the single lens of proving the other guys wrong. It requires a layer of self awareness most people aren't used to, and the desire, not the ability, to think critically and not rush to judgement. Some of the most intelligent people I know are fiercely partisan.

From where I sit on the political spectrum the vast majority on this list are pretty conservative it seems. Even a moderate is relative to the times just like the other labels.

I am fiscally conservative, but socially liberal. I end up arguing with conservatives more because I'm in the South, and there are a lot more Social conservatives down here. I've always felt that if I lived in California or New York, I'd end up arguing with liberals more.
I gave up trying to put myself in a political arena a while back and started going the independent route. I've actually contemplated running for office a couple times, but I'd run probably the snarkiest campaign ever and end up with zero votes...unless IndianBird gave me a pity vote.

Common sense would dictate someone does not say something like that without it being a two sided affair but when it comes to the PC police nothing else matters. Context, facts both sides be damned.

I just dont think this kid is a Klan member or the other guy is Rosa Parks. What he said was dumb idiotic whatever term you want to use but I also think it was not unprovoked and made out of temporary anger vs his actual beliefs, just like we all have done or said something to hurt someone based on anger and regretted it later nor do I think ruining someones college career or having death threats is a punishment that fits the crime. I called people in ATL traffic every single thing under the sun do I mean it no lol but when they cut you off going 90 almost scraping paint off your bumper in the moment my actual beliefs are not in play. One bad moment is not going to define a person to me several bad moments will. Suspend the guy for a match or two kick him off for any other violation and move on. Making this some civil rights movement from the 60's or proof the man is still out to get ya like it is 1960 is laughable at best.

So basically don't wait for both sides of the story before you decide who's guilty or you must be a Klan member #gotit
Thats not at all what I said. You should work on reading comprehension. It's vital to being an adult.
It doesn't matter what context that line was in, there is no apologizing for it. The apologists are worse than the App guy who actually said the line.
Nobody is saying that what he said was okay. We simply want to hear both sides of the story before we make any judgements. That reading comprehension thing really came back to bite you in the butt.
No, actually it didn't at all. Lol. Still stands strong.
Your reading comprehension is still in question though. Go back through. There is plenty of "I don't see what the big deal is..."
Jesus dude. Read before you type.
