[QUOTE="NotreDame, post: 73642003, member: 212558"] Comparing a liquor store robbery, which involves the threat of violence or force, or the use of view violence or force, towrds another person to take property, which is a crime, a felony, in all fifty states, to this photo, is asinine. May be a false assumption, as I’ve never heard of any such class in my many years in the educational system, including undergrad and graduate school. Indeed, to my knowledge, no educational institution I attended offered any such class. Maybe he didn’t attend any school, college, or unvisity offering any such class. And a great many of us have done something or said something that was reckless and in poor taste, many years ago. How many skeletons from your youth have you hidden? How many times have you seen someone who wasn’t Caucasian and had a racist thought about them, or experienced fear because of the color of their skin? How many times, being flippant, did you utter a racist slur or phrase? How many times did you cross to the other side of the street as a person who wasn’t Caucasian was walking on your side of the street in your direction? You’ve offered a poor rebuttal to my position. Comparing the photo to felonious criminal conduct of robbery, referring to possibly nonexistent college class, isn’t a rebuttal. [/QUOTE]
