OT: Tom Izzo PSA
The strangest thing I have heard all week has to go to this. Being a school social worker in a high-poverty and high-needs school district I unfortunately have to report suspicion of abuse and neglect quite frequently to CPS (about half a dozen a week). It has gotten to the point where I have pretty much memorized the state of michigan annoucements that play while you are on hold. There is usually a couple from the DMV on renewing your license or becoming an organ donor, and a couple of Tim Allen Pure Michigan ads are sprinkled in their too.
However, today I was surprised there was a new annoucement being played. This one went "Hello, this is Tom Izzo basketball coach at MSU. With the threat of violence is something that affects everyone and needs to be taken seriously. Ok 2 Say is a place where you can report anything that you feel threatens your safety or the safety of others. You can be the one who can stop a tragedy by just speaking up."
And here I thought playing Pure Michigan ads while you waited to report abuse or neglect was a bit odd. I was speechless after this one.
when you can no longer think logically and posit a cogent response, and instead resort to ad hominem attacks, you have ceded the high ground and debased yourself in the process. Congrats.
I recommend you read through the thread again and instead of implying my condescension, just read what I wrote. I am arguing that we should not impute a moral equivalence between an obsession with a neighbor who enables rape and an obsession born out of inferiority and jealousy. How about you counter that instead of telling me to, "fuck off, douchebag."
And check my first comment that started this. It was meant to be humorous, not condescending. Take the stick out of your ass and see humor in the world. Oops, I ceded a little of that moral high ground. D'oh.
fuck off douchebag
why spend it hitting refresh waiting for me to respond?
You responded 3 minutes after he did! That is shorter than any of his response times. Again, you are a fucking hypocrite, and quite a pathetic one. I can't tell if you're just an asshole or astoundingly stupid. Seriously, you suck.
"But I have no problem with him advocating for students using a resource to prevent gun violence."
You get why this is funny right? Like it would be if Bill Cosby gave an announcement about reporting rape and sexual violence? Or hearing a public service announcement from O.J. encouraging people to report domestic abuse?
