Identity

Maybe we need to be reminded of this one thing. We all have different backgrounds, experiences, ideologies, faiths, etc, however....
Let us be reminded that we are all human. This is the ultimate identity. While we all may disagree over anything under the sun, we love our Tigers.
Let's be civil, understanding of those who disagree with us. I think must of us fall somewhere in the middle whether it be one side or the other on any issue. The ones who stand to divide and chose a particular tribe aren't the ones to follow.
We are in this thing together folks, tolerance works in all directions. Let's be empathic, tolerant, and not bash those who disagree with us.
I would get all religious here but love one another, it's not hard.

All Ive been told is my past and heritage isnt good enough so its being stripped away. And if I dont like it then Im racist. I missed the part where me met at middle ground on this.

Green Clemson, and John Calhoun Clemson. Let us be tolerant of those who gave their fortune to start an institute of higher learning in upstate South Carolina.

those guys were rich. I doubt you have a single connection to them except for Clemson.
Their views were wrong, slavery was BS and they were on the wrong side of history. You can say "it was the times" and give them a pass but I don't. Slavery was wrong in the bible AS BEING WRONG. That's my guide. Where is your guide?
Tell me I am wrong for condemning Tillman or anyone else who had slaves. Do it! I want you in the open.

It do seem that you don't have a problem with bashing someone else's beliefs if they're not in line with yours. Don't expect your words to be respected if you're not willing to respect the words of someone else when they're words are different than your own. One man's thoughts and beliefs are usually not the thoughts and beliefs of another's!!!

Fairfield & Greenville counties, middle names that is. All societies had slavery at some point in their past. Some societies have slavery to this day. So England got rid of it bout 30 years before our South. The Northern U.S. had it into the 19th century but you never hear it talked about. My family willed 721 acres to a black Fairfield family in 1897 and again 135 acres in 1929. And now i hear reparations are on the ticket again. Do i get a discount?

Too often tolerance becomes demands for acceptance.

Totally agree. The question is, what do you do when others

disagree with that basic idea, and instead tell you that YOU don't matter, who have thrown empathy and tolerence out the window, and are willing to use violence and intimidation to get their way? Because that's where we are right now.
