Riley Gaines 'ambushed and physically hit' after Saving Women's Sports speech at San

I’ll admit, I am not a fan of Charlie Kirk. I find it depressing he is the head of the biggest (I believe) conservative organization on most college campuses. That being said the way the students treated Riley Gaines is sadly par for the course on many campuses.

It’s not enough to disagree with someone anymore. You must both shut them down and threaten speakers you don’t care for.

It’s no wonder so many people have soured on higher education. It used to be sold as a place of growth and hearing different viewpoints to challenge everyone’s thinking. Now it’s about making sure kids hear nothing they disagree with.

Sports, abortion, LBGTQ+ rights, voting rights, equal rights for women in general most issues. They are far more open minded, less racist and less bigoted.

Less religious, less grounded in basic morality, less selfless, less willing to follow rules, less willing to discuss and more likely to shout down or shut out, etc. … :(

The future is concerning … from where I sit anyway

Generation Z will have less bias on the matter. They don’t have the hang ups the Boomers do.

Agree in general. I don't care how old a female athlete is, or what generation she is from...she will not simply accept being dominated by a male athlete in competitive sports.

Maybe in a club or organization with nothing on the line, but certainly not when a college scholarship or Olympic spot is at stake.


Thankfully the world is making progress in sorting out the issue. Thus far, it's been unfairly slanted toward men, because of the other social issues that should not be denied to trans people.

Well, sitting in a place where religion and basic morality are lumped together doesn't give you a very good view.

Im surprised the kids in your area are so terrible, probably the results of Oklahoma being so conservative. Conservatives have abandoned morality, support for someone like Trump, they aren’t selfless, they support killing machines over children, they mock the rule of law, and people like Marge Greene think shouting is respectful. The GOP aren’t giving us their best people.

I am not going to discuss trans athletes with you. I have said my piece.

Democrats support the slaughter of the defenseless unborn within the womb. They want to stop the beating heart. Don't even try to talk about morality to me until you fix your blood lust..
