    He wasn't active in the melee. It was something happening at his school and he was 14. And curious.

    In 1957.

    What a stretch of horseshit, for the people who printed it and for the dumbasses like Jon who swallowed it hook, line and sinker.

      It is, of course and transparently, immoral to be joining in with the opportunistic shaming over this photo.

      Education is extremely important.

        This.

        Half of America was racist as fuck back then. I don’t really understand the outrage, unless we’re trying to deny that half of America was racist as fuck.

        I was only joking

          When the entire country was undergoing a personality shift regarding race, and road maps for going about it would have been ludicrous, why do we expect a 14-year-old kid to have gotten it perfect?

          Please love yourself.

            This isn’t presentism. Most of the country and indeed the world new it was immoral at the time. Eisenhower sent the fucking 101st Airborne for fuck sake.

            I don’t think he should be canceled but my god a little contrition would be nice.

            Only non-witches get due process.

              If there was that much consensus, why send in the 101st? Seems to me a lot of people had to come around.

                In 50 years we will be cancelling people because they were pro-choice during the 20th century.

                And so we should.

                  You can be as contrite as you want to be. So go be contrite somewhere. Maybe you can have a tea party with some elderly white progressive women where you apologize to each other for slavery and talk about your cats.

                    Bullshit.

                    The whole point of the article is "Jones is racist because he won't hire a black head coach". Lemmee 'splain something Lucy...If a black coach is good enough, Jones or any other owner will give him consideration.

                      Mr Jones is at the helm of several large organizations. Head coach of his football team is a single position of leadership among many. Would anybody care to guess whether people of color are in fact represented among that class of leaders through his organizations?
