You guys are gonna love this tweet from Trevor Lawrence
Sep 6, 2020, 5:54 PM

I see Trevor looking for unity with his brothers. I grew up playing ball and I think it’s important he said this. He’s a great leader.
I do agree that people of all colors should expect the worst when resisting arrest. That whole Perception has got to change. I’m proud of TL regardless.

But they need to understand the difference in unity and lecturing. As long as its a unifying message, im all for it! MLB/NBA have given them a great of example of going too woke.

Dang, my bad. I just didn't realize that the king died and you took over the throne.
I guess you never thought about the people that can't make the team, or the players that graduate and don't go pro. Or even the players that get stopped while driving while black, or jogging while black, or walking while black. I think you inherited a very small kingdom, but maybe there are some yhat will bow down to you. But don't hold your breath too long.

We don't need you to change, the young people is who we need and they are WOKE and are speaking out, athletes have realized their power and platform and are using it. This movement is growing and will be huge. BLM isn't anything close to a racist group, we won't let you steal this narrative like you tried to do with Kapernick!

If there was an equality issue there would be no problem with people supporting it. All you morons just believe everything the media tells you instead of doing your research. Sheep make me uncomfortable because they are blind followers like many of you.

Whitehurst,
The players and some of us are promoting fairness and justice. Those seem like All-American values to me. And I think it is clear that we are not living up to them yet. That is all we are saying.
If we disagree with you, we are automatically, stupid or sheep. That is convenient for you

Laws are not the only things that can be unjust. Enforcement and punishment (sentencing) of laws can be unjust. Hiring practices can be unjust.

Im not upset, why would I be? My favorite team, that's 75% African American, whose quarterback is the biggest star in college football, are attacking injustices and systemic racism at a fever pitched pace. These kids will make a change, with or without you and those that have similar views. They see everything that you pretend isn't there!

Problem is they are attacking something that doesn't exist. Again show me one law that gives me a right that no other race is allowed to have. I can name one but you ain't gonna like it because it destroys your fake narrative.

anyone who uses violence and intimidation for political means is a terrorist...the founders even called themselves marxists ..the whole premise is bull ####..they call themselves black lives matter in a way that if you do not agree with thier terroristic tactics you get the vintage "what you dont think black lives matter?" anyone with a working brain cell sees right through he bull ####..hence support for the terrorist group has fallen

Just wondering if the founding fathers who violently opposed England and looted as well(Boston tea party) were terrorists too. It is the lens you choose to look through. The loyalists for king George thought they were ungrateful thugs and colonies filled with the empirical rejects and criminals( see Georgia’s history). These people are still fighting the fight for a “more perfect union”

They even went to France for help!! The enemy of their nation. They were not good loyal countrymen. They probably kneeled for the British anthem and I think they burned the flag too. What made their goals that much more noble? Careful with your answer- this is an old school white supremacist catching trap.

ullors, 36, was the protégé of Eric Mann, former agitator of the Weather Underground domestic terror organization, and spent years absorbing the Marxist-Leninist ideology that shaped her worldview, Breitbart News reported.
“The first thing, I think, is that we actually do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia in particular are trained organizers,” she said, referring to BLM co-founder Alicia Garza.
“We are trained Marxists. We are super-versed on, sort of, ideological theories. And I think that what we really tried to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many black folk,” Cullors added in the interview with Jared Ball of The Real News Network.

And they established this great nation? How could something so awesome come from such darwinian racists that believed blacks were innately and biologically inferior and created by God to be so? Think y’all. It’s founders view is not always what we see it becoming. Like anything it is splintered as an organization. Like the USA. On the outside we look like one country but the president does not represent the ideals of the full union. Right? Trump, Obama. Diametric leadership.

Obviously you can't do your research or are just plain stupid. BLM is the biggest racist group ever. I guess you support Marxism and don't support this country because you can't do both in this situation. If you support BLM then you can rot in hell with the rest of those racist terrorists. Unbelievable...

You obviously do not know history. BLM is an admitted Marxist organization. Read its website, if you can read. Marx was anti-black and anti-religion. Marxism was/is the religion. Blacks blindly supporting BLM is effectively suicidal! They're being used!

Why does everyone feel it necessary to make political

[ in reply to nothing this boy who throws a football ] |

statements these days. TL is a football player. Play the game. Dude who makes awesome Pimento Cheese on Pawley's Island, he got political on social media and he's being boycotted. Just make the ###### pimento cheese. Just thrown the #### football. Why does everyone think they should voice their opinion and change the world. The end result is a bunch of angry people.
Just sorry to see him take to Twitter and get political. No matter the message, right or wrong, it's not a smart move period. I can count the social media posts I've made in my whole life on one hand. ANd they're totally anti-political, and indicate zero opinions. If someone wants my opinion on something, they can ask me. I'll give it. But who the #### am I to take some sanctimonious, holier-than-thou approach and blast my opinions to thousands (millions) of people. The vast majority could care less about my opinion. I care about good football and good pimento cheese. That's what I want to hear about.

"Over the course of the past year...some of the most atrocious racial injustices against countless..."
That statement in itself is ridiculous.
First of all, most of the instances this year that have garnered the most attention and led to the most protesting and rioting will likely end up in officers being exonerated of wrong doing. The rush to judgment has been based upon emotion, not facts and law.
Second, these kids must not have a clue about how atrocious racial injustice has been in the past in this country and other countries if they think the things that have received such broad publicity this year are "the most atrocious racial injustices."
Finally..."countless?" That's pure hyperbole. There have been a number of situations that have led to expression of outrage, but they can easily be counted.
College football is pretty much the only sport I've payed attention to for over a decade. I'm not sure it will sustain my interest if it becomes a platform for nonsensical statements like this one.

So they're gonna put the names of "victims" of police brutality on their helmets and shirts? What about the "victims," victims? What about Jacob Blake's girlfriend? What about the girl he raped? Can they put the names of those people on their helmets? What about police and people - black and white - who have been killed by BLM? Or business owners who had their business burned down? Can they be put on the helmets? I am afraid these players are being used as pawns in a much bigger scheme. I believe in equality and hate injustice and police brutality, but this sounds like the same garbage that the NBA and NFL are doing. BLM has shown through its actions that it is a domestic terrorist organization - period. I love Clemson Football and Dabo but this could take an ugly turn. I will reserve judgement until I see exactly what this is, but I am concerned that Clemson football is following the same distorted path of professional sports.

These woke athletes don't give a #### about the thousands of murder victims or the hundreds of Thousands rape victims, even though they are made up disproportionately of minorities. All they care about are the crack head people who commit these acts getting shot by the police when they refuse to do what they are told. The other 99.99% of dead minorities can burn in Hell apparently. Seems pretty racist to me and since Burn, Loot, Murder is the most racist organization in America that seems about right.

Why do I keep hearing about what about white lives mattering and the other people and police?. Go ahead. Stop being wimps and start a movement for them. Go get a black flag with a blue line. Go ahead and put their names on a shirt. No one would stop you.

I just read the five steps for combating racial injustice. CUAD needs to tread carefully. I am all for an honest discussion. Part of that discussion needs to focus on law enforcement. I am a mathematician and I always believe that math does not lie. Someone needs to show the players the statistics on how likely it is for a law enforcement officer to be killed in the line of duty. Then show them the statistics on how likely it is for a person of color to be killed by a law enforcement officer. Once you look at the numbers you understand why our officers are grossly underpaid.

Think if Trevor said no to the NFL until they made a rule where 80% of qbs had to be black. That would be stunning and powerful. If we want true change, these are the types of actions we need by white allies

What is it that you people have a problem with? He wants to:
Increase voting among his peers Engage in open communications with the university leaders with respect to race relations Engage in charitable community outreach Facilitate a connection between the community and the police force using sports as a bridge Have the freedom to express their feelings using slogans and apparel
There you go it’s that last one isn’t it? We’re all too happy to celebrate Trevor’s use of his platform as long as all he want to talk about is how much he loves football. Not once did he put down anyone or make a demand. There were no mentions of political groups or parties. He’s trying to put words into action which is something that is sorely lacking right now in this country. If we could count on our elected adults to actually lead our youth wouldn’t have to take it upon themselves to do what should have already been done. If you don’t like your Clemson football players being vocal that’s fine go find something else to do; we won’t miss you.

Yes, the last one is the tricky one.The use of apparel and video board. Someone with more knowledge on the subject is going to have to help me out here. Who has paid for the video board and apparel? Since Clemson is a state supported school, could this open up the possibility for a lawsuit? This could be construed as BLM having access to the board and uniforms but, what about other organizations? Can the other non-profits sue for video and uniform access?
Now as far as not missing people. I believe you will find that the vast majority of IPTAY donors support the military and law enforcement. They also support people of color being treated as equals. If item number five in any way goes against the military, flag, or law enforcement, IPTAY donations will dry up. No IPTAY donations, no Clemson football. You saw how the University begged donors to not get a refund for this season. Do not make the mistake of thinking the vast majority of money will not be missed.

Tigergirlga .... that was an excellent post. I hate to use the threat of withholding IPTAY donations as a "tool" because it will invoke more accusations of white privilege, but that is just the truth. I do not have a problem with just about all of what Trevor said, but using our donations and facilities that we paid for to promote a political cause (i.e., BLM the organization, not the words) or to dishonor our country, our public servants, and military is just not going to fly with me. IF they are allowed to do that, I suspect that IPTAY will suffer greatly. They will not see another dime from me and many others that I know. As a matter of fact, I think some are already voting with their pocketbooks. The bottom line is that it will hurt the people that need help the worst. I just hope our athletes don't overplay their hand.
Finally, I would like to know what they want to change ..... specifically, and how it will help. I think we all want to eliminate prejudice and racism, but what to I do to make someone not a racist? If there is a racist within the police department, fire them, but don't be surprised if some black police officers lose their jobs too.

Let their ok principles fall off. There will be a stand-off. Who will hate losing and having the paw no longer be seen at the CFP. Will Clemson fans be able to go back to the peach bowl every year because they pulled their money in opposition to what most of the players, recruits, parents, and coaches are in agreement and solidarity about? Face it- there is a new minority when it comes to the beliefs about racial injustice and police action. And maybe the privileged minority will cause clemson Athletics to suffer- but nothing worth being fought for comes without struggle. I wonder if bama, osu, and ou are having the same struggle with their coaches marching with players and declaring black lives matter and their players saying similar things as Trevor did? Or is it just us?

If you want to use slogans and names then use names that aren't rapists and thugs. You leftist idiots just don't get it do you? You side with criminals. How do you think any normal person with half a brain is going to look at you? Oh that's right,it's all about you isn't it.

This is all about a move toward socialism that is being disguised as a racial equality movement. Its nothing new. The poor black people are just being used once again by the same political organization once again to push the movement.
Look at history folks. I'm not ignorant enough to believe 98% of Republicans in office give a rip about my life, and I hope you aren't ignorant enough to believe a Pelosi, Schumer, AOC , or Sharpton give 2 rips about you. Its about maintaining power and pushing for more government control. Over blacks and whites.
Does no one find it odd than when government leaves people the hell alone, most people get along just fine. I cant think of a single black person I've had an issue with in person whether at work or in daily life. Do I like all black people? NO. However there's as many or more white folks i dont care for either.
I feel for those who have fallen for this junk being pushed by the media continously. There are no more bad police than there are doctors, teachers, garbage men etc. Only difference is the police are way underpaid for the crap they have to put up with.

I don’t agree with Trevor but also don’t hold his views against him. He’s a well intentioned intelligent young man but he’s just that, a YOUNG man.
It is hard to fully grasp the complexities of history until you’ve truly lived it.
Calling police shootings of blacks, which are a tiny minority of overall black deaths (hello gang violence), racial injustice every single time is asinine, especially when these are career criminals who don’t follow the police instructions.
As Candace Owens said, you play stupid games and you win stupid prizes.

-When he replies to people, he often refers to them in the third person, not second person. Only Clemson Mountaineers did that before olemike. He's tried to avoid doing this since I called him out on it with the olemike username. -He often fires off a second reply right after the first one because he didn't get it all out. Now, all of us have done that at some point, but CM does it on the regular. -The writing style and paragraph structure are the same. -He obsesses over the Deep State. CM is one of the most vocal people on this board about the existence of the Deep State. -You'll often see one of his user names in a thread discussion, then shortly after, the other name will come in to echo his sentiments.
The writing styles are very similar but the olemike stuff is more hostile. My guess is CM started to lose Tiger Pulse with his posts, so he created a new username where he could unload his harshest thoughts and now have to worry about TDs.
