Goodbye to the Duke

Comical.

The same fucking school that takes MILLIONS of dollars from CCP. That same country that has Muslims in re-education camps, child labor and is squashing human rights daily. Hypocrite. Oh, I'm sorry only black lives matter at this point...

 

I’m calling him right away! He can’t take back what he said or his beliefs.

 

I have never put anybody on "ignore," but this guy is now on double secret probation. As for Carol Burnett, no more money from me.

 

Why is a thread about the legacy of a famous USC football player considered OT? Sports have become so politicized, at this point we'll have to move all threads to OT. I'm pretty sure if you're white and you have opinions about black athletes, that makes you racist.

 

Pete Carroll is pretty lefty, but I doubt even he would agree with this trashing of the Duke's legacy.

 

John Wayne's legacy was amazing. The petty little critics throwing pebbles at his memory will never achieve his influence.

Will liberals not use their mobile phones, iPads or computers because William Shockley invented the transistor?

This attacks on John Wayne are silly.

As Jesus said, . . . "He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone . . . " John 8:7

The cancel culture will fail because of the self-righteous hypocrites trying to hold others to a standard of perfection which they of course have not reached and cannot reach.

 

When can we disassociate Spielberg from USC since it’s rumored that he’s a big pedo?

 

These leftist bastards will not be happy until they erase all history in which they disagree. I had friends that knew the Duke! Great guy, generous and treated people equally based on their character. What this woke generation of fucking book burners has done with several people in history is not look at the totality of their lives and wrongfully judged them by today’s standards.

 

We've seen this movie before. The only difference was that it was the other side doing it. But why would today's students even know about it. That time in history is no longer taught in schools.

I met Pilar Wayne a few decades ago in the Newport Beach area. She was very pleasant as I recall. You said he had a few wives which one was she?

 

My once beloved university has now gone over the edge of PC, and extreme liberal ideals that don’t represent the majority of those of us that attended USC and were once Trojans for life. The politics of this country have gone so far to the left and right that I can no longer live here. I’m done with USC and the US. Got a home in Australia. Retiring there. F you US, USC, and the extremist idiots That are ruining this country. When China invades and takes over your sorry country, you will know true racism. Careful what you ask for, you will surely get it!

 

Well if we start eliminating folks based on a couple offensive comments, there’s going to be nothing left.

The problem with your statement is it’s not a two way street. What Bidet said about if you vote from Trump, then you ain’t black is FAR more offensive than anything the Duke said. Yet, millions will still vote for him. That double standard is a major issue.

 

talk about coincidence, my yearly request for donations to USC law school showed up yesterday. I told them years ago I was never donating again, they never give up. I may actually send the form back in, with a photo of the Duke enclosed.

 

Perhaps indicate that the money you might have sent has instead, been donated to the John Wayne Cancer Foundation?

 

I love that idea....

 

Such disgusting pandering by Dean Hughes to BLM which ìs nothing but an anarchist racist group. Political correctness is nothing but a cancer spreading across the United States resulting in criminal vandalism of monuments and stupid music groups who have no knowledge of history changing their names.

 

I read one article that said, if MLK had said the same things about the blacks, the remarks would have been viewed as positive

 

Thank you for your courteous, honest and intellectual replies to the poster child (Pac Trojan) for the ever diminishing U.S.C. heritage and legacy that is becoming the newest addition to the Calimexizuela west coast Globalist New World Order, Socialist indoctrination universities organization.

It is vital to point out the flawed thinking of university students who buy into the socialist, New world order, globalist indoctrination system they call higher education. Sadly PacTrojan is a poster child of this "one way" illogical thinking that promotes a dangerous belief that some minor misguided error or statement made sometime in the past, by a person who other wise spent their lives being a model citizen, philanthropist and role model, should be brought forward to current society and used to destroy the 90+ percent of the good contributed by such a person.

Like other idealists, PacTrojan does not mention the likes of Jesse Jackson, Congress person Byrd (KKK Grand Guru), Farrakhan, Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren, Maxine Waters, and the litany of liars, hypocrites and haters that promulgate our society today and have always behaved in that manner.

PacTrojan will never be capable of representing the past graduates of a educationally honored U.S.C. that was not deteriorating into a indoctrination swamp full of educational left wing radical bottom feeders that people like Folt represent..

 

Amen to this!
