When I first got here, I didn't love the no politics rule because I really do have so much wisdom to share, but I've come to really love it. I'm happy enough to not like people just because they're pro-Eric Mangini, I don't need to know what political fringe everyone is crawling out from. 56 posts in and things are going well.

Have fun, kiddos. It's not technically an open forum. We're using QuickTopic, which makes it an invite-only kind of deal. And it's not an attempt to steal people away from JN, either. If you change your mind, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetworks Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Not at all looking to steer traffic away from here or towards the Hampur, but if you're really interested in unfettered political discourse with little in the way of moderation with a bunch of loser Jets fans, feel free to jump in: http://newyorkjetshampur.com/board/10/all-politics-religion 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt39 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Address specific policies, school district lines etc. The Northeast especially. Access to the same education, especially in some pretty woke areas I think is what frustrates people who feel they’re getting lectured by people who don’t follow through on what they preach. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We argue enough over Jamal Adams and Sam Darnold, now you want to have a “civil discussion,” about systematic, institutional racism? And the conversations you have in “private,” aren’t going to effect the conversations that go on publicly here? Can’t stop you from doing it, but if you do, the format shouldn’t be this site’s pm system, but some other format. And try to keep the certain animosity there. Please don’t bring it here (he said fruitlessly). The person you have as an Avitar had many opinions that he loved to express outwardly.

Vader Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 4 hours ago, JiF said: I dont understand why were are locking them, no politics were involved. The NFL is about to face a monster issue they completely butt fumbled the last time around and I think it is relevant conversation to have for a NY Jets message board. Jamal Adams is going to be vocal leader and it's going to be awesome. Honestly, JN can do the country some good right now because it can clearly bring some much needed awareness to some of the posters. I'm not telling you who to vote for or giving this a political slant at all, I would like to talk about how the NFL can be a vehicle to drive change in our country and hopefully help some folks understand why these players will once again, be taking a knee. This time, dont be surprised to see the entire sideline on their knee... How is that not relevant to the NY Jets/NFL? Lots of people are not ready to be told they need awareness. Most people aren’t ready for this if you tell them they are chewing too loudly much less about larger social issues 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cartoon featuring two men, white and black? Excellent if that was it. Redlining is a real concept. I get trained on it annually.
