Irredeemable people like that just need to be taken out back and ... Saw the pic and probably what reminded me of the 60s tshirt. She no longer posts here but God Bless NanciD and her drum corps history blog. That’s how I saw the letter. Glad I saved all of them to dvds Edited January 22, 2021 by JimF-LowBari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before the home show my family walked around to talk to people they knew in the corps. Mom asks “who is (describes a former member of the disbanded corps)”. Just by the tone of voice I could tell... 😡. Mom over heard him saying “well next year we’re going to come back... all male and all white”. (The corps last year they were co-ed and multi racial) ::facepalm:: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is just absolute garbage. That is a viewpoint that needs to be defeated at many levels of society. Just silencing it, and allowing it to fester in the shadows, is not good enough. Plus, I would rather those creatures be free to speak, and out themselves, so that I know who to keep the children way-the-hell away from. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Mod hat here: Getting a jump before things go astray... Please take care with making politically oriented posts. We can't just prohibit political posts that just about everybody here agrees are horrific. It becomes a slippery slope in making decisions when things are not so clear cut.

Scary. “Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me hate speech is a human issue before political. And as I’ve said for years, I’m for free speech as it lets me know who the hell to stay away from. But not for speech that calls for taking away someone’s rights, freedom or life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a second look prior to submitting a post to make sure there is nothing political in it, is what a I am saying. DCP guidelines are in place to eliminate the need to "make a call". Some posts mention terrible things, and just about 100% of us agree. But if they verge in the political arena, they are against guidelines. The slope can become slippery quickly, which is a reason for a zero politics policy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a few “you know better than that” PMs from Mr Z. We met at DCA one year so no problem. Edited January 23, 2021 by JimF-LowBari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
