Fellow 247 Posters:
A group of us have been alerted to the fact that the Blue Board, the flagship board of 247, has and continues to be tolerant of racist/homophobic comments. In an effort to change this, we're starting a petition, with a message to 247 that this type of content is not acceptable for this community. See the link below, and please add your support to this cause.
Thank you for your time and effort

Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

I don't support university activism...which is what this reeks of to me.
I didn't see one single example in there of the behavior we are "uniting" against.

I still believe the laws in effect in this country would be acceptable laws for all if they were all done the right way. I do not think special interest groups should get a priority because if someone gets beat up in this country, it was because of hatred plain and simple, charge them and put them all away but lets not glorify it because of a special race, religion, or sexuality.
