Give the "activists" credit for good timing. You can't and don't cancel or forfeit a game scheduled at Arrowhead... unless you are willing to file for bankruptcy and alienate/lose half of your fan base in one fell swoop.

Were that to happen, we might as well be Jayhawks.

So, this game with BYU has just turned into something a lot more meaningful than the result on the scoreboard. Some may not know it but the KC area has a huge Mormon contingent, probably the only reason they agreed to play here in the first place.

^^^^^^ is the problem.

If all the decent folk in your state stayed away in droves, the next time such bullshit happens, and you know damn well it will, the University Admin might grow a set of balls and stand up to the PC facist hordes.

I mean we are talking about fukking mizzou, here. It is not like you'd be missing much.

The proper response to this would have been an immediate revocation of scholarships to all boycotting football players. You are there, getting a free ride to play football. You have the right to boycott and the U has the right to revoke your scholarship.

This might result in their football program exploding for a few years, but, they would get passed it and more importantly, a message would be sent to the PC facist that we are getting tired of their bullshit. Instead, they have shown that they have the power and if you dont think this will be re-run on another campus soon, you are a special kind of retarded.

I haven't seen anything to suggest that the shit swastika was drawn by a white. Tawana Brawley, anyone? Who knows? Maybe it was drawn by a coprophagic Hindu looking for a bit of good luck on an upcoming exam. And seeing how much Mizzou sucks in football, the university prez should have just said, "Screw you, guys. Our football season is officially over as of now."

I drive by it every week day to and from work. It's such a fucking bad ass fortress cockaholics deck has penis envy. Probably not by coincidence, it's right next door the KCMO police academy. Yes, BYU will drive right by there too. Probably drop some coin, or take, as the case may be.

It's like the Mormons saw the RLDS whimsical structure and said fuck that noise, we're building a veritable Fort Knox up the road.

This structure will withstand an F5... and BYU will probably kick the ever living dogshit out of Mizzou in my own backyard.

Back in the day I positioned myself on the hood of a car and shat on the front windshield of a car. Came out beautiful, like a large cinnamon roll. The formation was perfect for several minutes, perched in-line with the rear view mirror, until the heat of the feces overcame the chill from the early morning and it slid, initially trying to hold tight, but then letting go the final grasp to glide in solid formation only to be stopped by the windshield wipers. A damaged mound of human excrement, in the form of a disfigured bakery treat meshed with the windshield wipers looking up at the particles of skid longing to be rejoined, was left behind from the deliverer only to be found by one other in this world.

University of Missouri Police Ask Students to Report ‘Hurtful Speech’

The Missouri University Police Department (MUPD) sent an email to students Tuesday morning urging them to call them and report any hurtful speech they encounter on the campus.

In an email that was flagged by several Missouri-based journalists, the MUPD asked “individuals who witness incidents of hateful and/or hurtful speech or actions” to call the department’s general phone line “to continue to ensure that the University of Missouri campus remains safe.” They suggest that students provide a detailed description of the offender, their location or license plate number, and even to take a picture if possible.


In the email, MUPD readily admits that hurtful or hateful speech is not against the law. But, they write, “if the individuals identified are students, MU’s Office of Student Conduct can take disciplinary action.”

In a statement to Mediaite, the MUPD confirmed that the email was real. When asked about the potential First Amendment implications, a spokesman responded simply, “We are simply asking them to report what they feel is hurtful and/or hateful speech.”

Email that set off the Yale protests wrote:'I don't wish to trivialize genuine concerns about cultural and personal representation.

'I know that many decent people have proposed guidelines on Halloween costumes from a spirit of avoiding hurt and offense. I laud those goals, in theory, as most of us do.

But in practice, I wonder if we should reflect more transparently, as a community, on the consequences of an institutional (which is to say: bureaucratic and administrative) exercise of implied control over college students.

'I don't, actually, trust myself to foist my Halloweenish standards and motives on others. I can't defend them anymore than you could defend yours.

Is there no room anymore for a child or young person to be a little bit obnoxious … a little bit inappropriate or provocative or, yes, offensive? American universities were once a safe space not only for maturation but also for a certain regressive, or even transgressive, experience; increasingly, it seems, they have become places of censure and prohibition.

'Nicholas says, if you don't like a costume someone is wearing, look away, or tell them you are offended. Talk to each other. Free speech and the ability to tolerate offence are the hallmarks of a free and open society.'
Letter signed by 740 members of Yale's students, faculty and staff in response to the email wrote:In anticipation of the Halloween weekend soon to arrive at Yale, an email was sent out by Dean Burgwell Howard and the Intercultural Affairs Committee in which they implored the Yale body to “avoid those circumstances that threaten our sense of community or disrespects, alienates or ridicules segments of our population based on race, nationality, religious belief or gender expression.” The email also encouraged Yale students to “take the time to consider their costumes and the impact it may have.”

What was simply a request from Yale’s Intercultural Affairs Committee for students to reconsider culturally insensitive costumes was met with criticism when an email was sent out to the students of Silliman College by the Associate Master, Erika Christakis. She wrote her email, as she says, in response to “students who were frustrated by the mass email sent to the student body about appropriate Halloween-wear.”

Associate Master Erika Christakis,

In your email, you defend the right to wear racist or marginalizing costumes as free speech and accuse the Intercultural Affairs Committee of imposing bureaucratic restrictions on the student body. You deem the call for sensitivity “censure” — one which you say comes “from above”, not from the students, as if the repeated requests of many students of color do not count. To equate a suggestion of the IAC, a committee created to challenge bias and promote cultural awareness, respect, and appreciation on campus, with an “institutional exercise of implied control over college students” further erases the voices of the students they stand to protect.

The contents of your email were jarring and disheartening. Your email equates old traditions of using harmful stereotypes and tropes to further degrade marginalized people, to preschoolers playing make believe. This both trivializes the harm done by these tropes and infantilizes the student body to which the request was made. You fail to distinguish the difference between cosplaying fictional characters and misrepresenting actual groups of people. In your email, you ask students to “look away” if costumes are offensive, as if the degradation of our cultures and people, and the violence that grows out of it is something that we can ignore. We were told to meet the offensive parties head on, without suggesting any modes or means to facilitate these discussions to promote understanding. Giving “room” for students to be “obnoxious” or “offensive”, as you suggest, is only inviting ridicule and violence onto ourselves and our communities, and ultimately comes at the expense of room in which marginalized students can feel safe.

These discussions are not new, and have been happening nationally. To ask marginalized students to throw away their enjoyment of a holiday, in order to expend emotional, mental, and physical energy to explain why something is offensive, is — offensive. In the age of the internet, resources can easily be found to explain the history and consequences of these actions. The role of marginalized people on campus is not, and should not be, to constantly educate our peers if they ignore the many opportunities offered — like the one provided by the Intercultural Affairs Committee’s email — to self-explore and learn.

After receiving responses from students and alumni through both social media and email, you responded to critics of your email with a link to the Atlantic Magazine article, “The Coddling of the American Mind.” Not only are you calling our calls to be respected as human beings and not costumes, coddling, but you use an article that doesn’t consider the fact that marginalized people largely do not have the protected upbringings the authors describe. We are not asking to be coddled. The real coddling is telling the privileged majority on campus that they do not have to engage with the brutal pasts that are a part of the costumes they seek to wear. We, however, simply ask that our existences not be invalidated on campus. This is us asking for basic respect of our cultures and our livelihoods.

To be a student of color on Yale’s campus is to exist in a space that was not created for you. From the Eurocentric courses, to the lack of diversity in the faculty, to the names of slave owners and traders that adorn most of the buildings on campus — all are reminders that Yale’s history is one of exclusion. An exclusion that was based on the same stereotypes and incorrect beliefs that students now seek to wear as costumes. Stereotypes that many students still face to this day when navigating the university. The purpose of blackface, yellowface, and practices like these were meant to alienate, denigrate, and to portray people of color as something inferior and unwelcome in society. To see that replicated on college campuses only reinforces the idea that this is a space in which we do not belong.

Sincerely,

Concerned Yale Students, Alumni, Family, Faculty, and Staff
I really do believe it is time to stand the PC facist against a wall and shoot them. This shit is really getting old.

Which is why you are not a school administrator. There are some costumes that can't be allowed on campus. You can bitch about there not being a "list" but there is a "list" and always has been. That's all the stupid cunt had to say. But go ahead and double down on your shit take.
