Kirk Herbstreit breaks down in tears discussing social injustice during College GameDay

I know I am in the minority on this and I think its a bit much of a response for sure. Maria Taylor responding to it should help show the impact it has on others. Herb is a right leaning guy regardless of what you think of this 2 min monologue. His point and Franklin quote are relevant regardless of what this board thinks about the subject.

Fowler's comment at the end is the primary point. Need to have hearts that are open.
 
I was listening to the 1150 The Zone in College Station and Louie Belina was saying how moved he was by Kirk's message. I leave it at that.
 
No one is going to discount Herbstreit. He is very well respected in the game but that was a little to much. However for all the people on here that type "Here" for every good Ag that passes. The lack of empathy for social injustice is very contradictory.

1. those two things do not contradict each other.

2. I can have empathy for people who are victims of racism and also not believe that systemic racism is rampant in society.

3. I can call out a person for virtue signalling, that doesn't mean I don't have empathy.

Louie is a little fellow, though he was in the marines . I’ll leave it at that
 
That was so far over the top it should be insulting to the people's ass he was trying to kiss.
I have not yet seen it. But let the guy weep. You guys weep over fumbles, Fran 4th & 1s, dead dogs, and dog poop on lawns.

Give Herbstriet some room!

Careful with using logic to make points to liberals. It might put them into a blind rage or confuse them to the point of going catatonic

Is it empathy when it’s something that doesn’t really exist? At least not on the scale alleged.

Or is it unhealthy, unhelpful enabling of a delusion?
 
This story highlights that this is definitely a broader police brutality issue that black people, for many reasons, feel the burden of.
Autistic boy gets shot

The reason is that despite any real evidence that it's pervasive we get 24 hour coverage of only one kind of police shooting that is extremely rare and often presented as commonplace and removing any responsibility from the 10 or so people it happens to every year.

WTF is the social justice they’re looking for? It’s like crying for world peace or for people living in real poverty in Africa. There’s nothing tangible on the table, just a bunch of pleas and demands for awareness. They tried a defund the police campaign and that went over like a lead balloon. People aren’t buying the narrative. What’s next?
