Not surprised and not upset.

All I can say is what it symbolizes to me, and that is the south, and my heritage. However, it has been used as a symbol of hate, death, and terrorism and because of that that is what it symbolizes to a great many people. And with that understanding there is no excuse whatsoever for this flag or the official confederate flag to be flying over any government building or on any public land. White supremacy in the 1800's and early 1900's was an American problem. Not just regulated to the south. Life for black people in the north were not much better than the south, and in some northern states arguably worse. Also, even though the north eventually fought for emancipation of slaves they wanted none of those free slaves in their states and wrote laws to discourage black migration. This was particularly true of northern states that were almost exclusively white (some northern states had a black population of around 1%, and wanted to keep it that way) Slavery is an abomination, and there is no doubt it was one of the primary causes of the Civil War, and southern economy was entrenched in the availability of free labor. Especially states like Alabama, Mississippi, SC, and Louisiana. So I am not trying to defend the south against that institution. But just to remind people that white supremacy was a universal belief throughout the US. And the fight for equality today is still nationwide. There are active Ku Klux Klan groups and other white supremacy groups like the CCC, across the northeast and rust belt as well as places like California. This fight against racism does not just take place in SC, or below the Mason Dixon line, or is fixed with the removal of a flag. It is fought everyday, in every corner of the nation. And people need to accept it. Drop the tired tropes of reverse racism. Stop accepting the bullshit narrative of Christian persecution, End the rhetoric of preferential treatment of blacks by our government. This is the rhetoric that led to the misguided beliefs of this young man. If you are not fighting against these things, if you allow these narratives to go unchallenged, you are part of the problem. /rant

Awesome gesture by an awesome organization

BREAKING: Lebron James is pretty good at this basketball thing

This may not apply because it isn't a Panthers picture, but could he effectively used in a Shula thread. Plus it always makes me laugh

These HAVE to be included IMO Everything about this picture is classic. The face, the thumbs up, the score, the Christmas lights. Everything. Perfection

All you need to know is Jon Snow is dead

I was impressed with Corey last year. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he is starting in September.

I have been reading some fan theories and I still feel like the final battle is going to be between Jon Snow and Dany (Ice and Fire) I still think he is dead, I think he will be resurrected by the Night's King (the WW king) and not the red lady. The Night King is obviously an intelligent being and not a mindless zombie (he also apparently used to be the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch before he became a WW, I didn't know that) I feel pretty confident that the three dragon riders are Dany (obviously), Snow, and Tyrion. But does that mean they are all on the same side at the end? There are plenty of stories in Westerosi history of wars with dragons fighting on both sides. I don't know. I just feel it deep down in my plums. I also have a weird feeling that the finale may end with no survivors, everyone dies. Valar Morghulis. "All men must die"

Are you cold? Reads like you are shivering lol

He has gotten better every year and worked his way up the ladder. Why would we want a guy like that?

He wasn't a bad receiver. This guy has gotten waaaay too much grief. Just don't let him field punts plz

This guy sounds like the walking embodiment of a hogmolly

Merica fug yeah!

Please stop fugging with the most popular sport in the United States. Seriously. Stop it. I've never heard the saying "If it ain't broke keep fugging with it until it is"

Can you blog about whatever? Even a Tinderbox or Nerdvana type subjects? Or Panthers only material?

At least 6 more seasons of this

YOU GET PIE! AND YOU GET PIE! EVERYONE GETS PIE!!!!

Fug yeah. Let's get drunk!!!

I hear the hold up is because Cam doesn't want to play here anymore because he has no offensive weapons and that Gettleman secretly hates Cam so he wants to sabotage him

This GIF although used all the time, when properly used never fails to make me laugh out loud and never fails to receive my pie

​I have never seen any pictures of you but I am 95% positive you are not a horse

Couldn't find a picture of Promethean Forerunner's alleged girlfriend, but did find a picture of PF himself as he awaits that girl that meets his standards that is also willing to sleep with him
