The NFL is swiftly turning into a nanny state with pink ribbons. Actually, it's already here.
Oh good, this post.
There's no justification for bullying, hostile work environments or calling someone to call them "half a nigger", period.
None of this bull**** 'way it used to be' response either. Guess what - we as a society are still progressing. The way it used to be involved persecution of gays and minorities, oppression of women, slavery, genocide. "The way it used to be" is not a moral right unto itself.
Being bullied doesn't build character it just makes you hate the ******* ******* who is bullying you. Do you know what builds ******* character? Getting a job, fulfilling your responsibilities, setting and achieving goals, raising a family and abstaining from violence. These things build character.
Having some ******* talk about defecating down your mouth doesn't build character and we shouldn't treat bullies as some sort of ******* protected class that exists to toughen up kids. Bullies aren't a parental tool they're people with problems who should not be allowed free reign in a society that has progressed passed the troglodyte stage.
