I tremble for my country
As a moment of civic education, I recommend browsing any thread on any search engine on any sports topic. I hope—If I prayed I would pray—that these scrawls are the work of the same 30 people who do nothing all day and night but cruise from one sports item to the next "composing" their grunts.
If they are the work of any larger slice of population, we're in very deep shit. Consider that:
- These people are supposedly educated
- They can vote, although I doubt that few have ever voted for anything except the Pro Bowl or an All-Star game
- They can sit on a jury and convict someone of a capital crime
That is why I recall the remark of Thomas Jefferson: "When I reflect that god is just, I tremble for my country."

Agreed. I have had to quit reading them, they are so scary. Everything always turns to racism, have you noticed? Even if a million white men are involved, somehow someone sneaks in a racist comment and then it all goes downhill. Further...downhill.
