Sorry I didn't realize you were addressing people not currently participating in this thread. Maybe some of them will come post eventually.

Irony is you are trying to convince everyone that it is not relevant. If done as a way to make a point of what DCI needs to do then relevancy is well... irrelevant Edited August 12, 2018 by JimF-LowBari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said anything about relevancy. I said that this was not appropriate. You can draw lines here. It is not appropriate to say the "f word" in church. That doesn't mean that I think that the topic profanity is not a relevant discussion in the world. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is some sort of statement being made? This just seems very poorly thought out other than trying to get people like Cappybara to give high-fives. Nothing is being accomplished here. I'm not defending Hopkins. By all accounts he seems like he wasn't a very good person. I have no sympathy for him. But why would anyone feel that he is important enough to make part of the I&E event? Why is this a good thing? You have to draw the line somewhere. Would it be ok if he read something anti-trump? Anti-obama? What if he read Bill Cosby's indictment? You have to draw the line somewhere. It makes sense just to draw the line at performing competitive solos/ensembles. Reposting your first post to answer... you are saying I&E is not the place to do this. To put it another way you are saying they are not relevant to each other.

To put it another way you are saying they are not relevant to each other. No, I am not saying that. Did you see my previous post regarding appropriateness vs. relevancy? You are way off here. There is a difference. The Hopkins Scandal is EXTREMELY RELEVANT to DCI. I&E is not the appropriate place to discuss it. I can't make that any clearer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is always good to consider hypothetical future implications when making decisions. Not sure who would disagree with that. Now, if you are saying that "I just think that there is NO WAY that the hypothetical situations you named would ever happen" (which you very well could be right about) then you can go ahead with allowing this type of thing to go on. But understand that you are leaving a very wide door open. Edited August 12, 2018 by CD23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
