For those who thought the wanted posters at Chapel Hill were bad on Nov. 12 '05 in Alabama

[RB TexLa]

For the LSU/Alabama game Alabama fans threw dog food at us screaming "here's your FEMA rations," chanted "Katrina Trash," throughout the afternoon and had tee shirts with the outline of the state of Louisiana being hit by a big red wave of water and "What Katrina left the Crimson Tide will destroy."

1. I really really really hope that what you say is not true.

Good grief! Do you have a link?

[SteppingRazor]

2. Back when I was in college at Mizzou...

at the Kansas/Missouri football game, our fans pelted the KU band with batteries, full beer cans, and even brickbats.

What Tide fans did is disgusting, certainly. I'm just pointing out that college rivalries often get beyond ugly.

[RB TexLa]

4. I didn't think anything less of them then I already did

[HuskerDU]

3. It just occured to me that perhaps your word IS the link. Well I

believe you my friend and that is just horrible. I am very sorry that they did that to you. BTW I am NOT a 'Bama fan.


edit: and congrats on the National Championship! Great team you had.

[Dawggie]

5. That is so sad. As an Alabama resident, I can believe it,

We all aren't that way.

[ixion]

6. disgusting

It is difficult for me to fathom the cruelty inherent to our species.

7. Repugs are capable of anything, including

this kind of shit. Do you think that any Liberal would stoop to this? Just try to understand its only the shithead repugs in MY state that will do this, not the ENTIRE state. I, as a lifelong Alabamian, condemn this kind of behavior.

[RB TexLa]

8. I don't think their political leanings had any part in it.

[donsu]

9. me too, sounds like racism to me

nt

[RB TexLa]

10. It was mainly white people on both sides

[donsu]

11. really! then, is it as simple as hatred for the opposing team?

13. Racism isn't non-partisan.

Not that it can't cross the aisle occasionally.

[Rageneau]

12. Yes, their political leanings DID have to do with it.

It is inconceivable that a liberal democrat would mock the misery of others, or try to inflict physical harm on them simply because of a difference in team loyalties. In fact, the very reason that liberals EXIST is to allieviate the misery and protect the welfare of other people, even those who are not like us. We OPPOSE wars. We OPPOSE torture. We OPPOSE poisonous invective. It is conservatives who willingly employ such bad behaviors, and I'd bet you anything that the hooligans who did the awful things described in this thread are, or one day will be, conservative Republicans, to a man.

[Dawggie]

14. Agreed.

This was a sad demonstration by a sad few that I hope does not reflect upon the place where I live.

[northzax]

15. oh bullshit

they are drunk college students.

been to GDP lately?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

16. I've been to GDP

but it's chock full of right wing trolls.

[DadOf2LittleAngels]

17. Bravo Sierra

"It is inconceivable that a liberal democrat would mock the misery of others"

Some of the post on DU with people positively giddy over the misfortune of people who hold a different political opinion contradict this statement.

[HuskerDU]

18. There isn't much that is uglier than people enjoying the misery

of others. And yes I have seen it happen here.

[RB TexLa]

19. None of this was a surprise, and nothing political. We in Louisiana know what people in America

think of us, both liberal and conservative, no difference.

I could have done without the dog food.

[OwnedByFerrets]

21. Now that is utter bull shit......

you are saying that liberals are no different than conservatives???? BULLSHIT!!! I dont know one liberal in alabama that would have done this shit. :mad: I never said it was politically motivated. What I said was that only the Repug mind would stoop this low.

[OwnedByFerrets]

20. Thank you Rag for Understanding. No one else seemed

to comprehend the repug/redneck mind in my state.
