Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Simple reason: those kinds of posts have already been made here. Think back to a separate thread on Alec Baldwin's tweet: I fully said he was in the wrong. Just don't think it's too much to ask to think that Nugent should be called out as well.
I think Nugent's assessment is as accurate as the one that says TM is a saint and GZ is a hateful racist who likes to hunt defenseless children.

IMO, profiling and racism are two very different things. I've lived in this particular house now for nearly 5 years, and have hardly spoken a word to any of my neighbors. I consider myself a "private neighbor" and it seems most around here do the same.

That said, if I were to profile on looks and actions alone (and I apparently did), I've got a lesbian living across the street (know it's not true, she's manly, but married)

A 400 lb fat lazy bastard that lives next door (I know he works at home online just by hearing his conversations with the UPS guy, and apparently does well)

A family with 8 kids (and no father around) that live across the street and 3 or 4 houses down (found out it's a home owned day care center)

My point is, I think we subconsciously profile all day long -- at least I realize I do. Wouldn't be surprised if most people automatically do the same.

Yeah, ok. You've got entire news networks making similar if not worse statements about Zimmerman along with half of the NBA, NFL, and Hollywood which nobody posted.....but you feel just Nugent is newsworthy.

Oh....and never mind the FACT that Nugent was actually accurate on 2 of his 3 accusations. Martin was a racist and a dope smoker.

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.

This board isn't entire news networks. It's incredible when given the simplest of explanations as to why I would post it, you choose to still seem to be behind Nugent's crazy train.

BTW, if you want 'truth'......what was wrong with comments about Zimmerman being a marked man? Are those not truthful? Or could it be that -- just like Nugent's rant -- that those words do nothing but agitate and incite?

Right, and the "wannabe ganster" is just Nugent's opinion. After TM's phone pictures of the gun and gold teeth came out, combined with the apparent physical attack and "MMA style" assault of GZ, it seems like a credible one.

Didn't Martin either tweet or have on Facebook multiple posts calling himself a "gangsta"? Not sure why Nugent can't call the kid what he called himself....?

I didn't see that, but it wouldn't surprise me.

I did find one "celebrity" tweet funny. Kim Kardashian tweeted her disagreement with the verdict and ended it withe - #nojustice

Kind of ironic considering her dad helped get OJ aquitted.

Sad. Our government setting up a tip line in an attempt to find Something to charge Zimmerman with. Eric Holder is an activist with an agenda. He is a sad excuse for an Attorney General.

I'm surprised liberals aren't outraged by this power overreach by the Federal government. I'm expecting you to get a lot of "likes" for this one.

I would think it would be way easier just to drone strike him.
