Makarov deserves at least a timeout. He’d be banned on better moderated :wink: boards.

I believe there's "more smoke than fire" in this entire deal. Anyone who puts faith in a news outfit, needs to find another source of information. Most news outfits are "professional liars" and fiction writers.

I don't see one thing in this thread that violates any rule. Some can dish it out but cant take incoming. Crybaby

After all this forum isn't edited like the LU news paper is, right? :lol:

So I was reading how University of Masters lost their accreditation because of “conflicts of interest regarding student financial aid, staff without qualifications for their positions and “a climate of fear, intimidation, bullying and uncertainty” among faculty members.”

We fit the criteria of losing our accreditation. If we do, we can get the boot from the NCAA. Just saying.

Did you call somebody a liar? You can only call jr that here. I'm sure this will be deleted by the moderators. :roll:

This thread is becoming laughable. well it was laughable before because of the subject but man some of ya'll really need a lesson in critical thinking. That being said don't take the bait. the idea is to crash and burn this thread so hard that its left alone by the people with actual thought provoking comments and critical thinking skills. If you cant see whats going on in the last 4 pages then I don't know what to tell you.

There are plenty of personal attacks in this thread. The media isn't a person though, so you can leave ballcoach's post about them :lol:

I have been supportive of the Falwell's for 40+ years. I am not going to change that overnight, or over a few days, based solely on some looney-left media reports. I am inclined to be more patient. Especially since many of the resident haters here, seem to be too excited. There will be much more information coming out I am sure, from both sides.
However, I do find it interesting that we all of a sudden, have a more restrictive enforcement of the "bored " rules. Especially since LU wanted to make sure this was board was not officially affiliated with the university.
Finally, don't know who makarov is, but hard not to like a guy who has that moniker. Love my many, many Makarov's, great little gun. Everyone should own a few. :)

The media are proven liars, particularly when it comes to anyone or anything associated with the President or Conservatives.

They run cover for Gov. Blackface and Rapist Fairfax, but seek the heads of anyone with an (R) after their name.

The fact that anyone would trust anything that the media says, given their track record, betrays their own hidden agenda. Particularly when what the media has revealed hasn't even been that bad.
You must be a blast at parties lol

I wonder if the “off campus gym “ referred to was Crosswhite

It is. It was becoming quite the club before I ended my membership. It was typical to see many C level folks there at any given point during the day.

Someone should create a bingo card of words Makarov will post in every one of his posts.

A question for those of you still defending Jr:

At what point will you budge?

If a report comes out tomorrow that he cheated on Becki, will you continue defending him as long as the report isn’t from an approved conservative media outlet?

If he gets a DUI, are we going to blame the cop that pulled him over?

If he’s suspected of murder, are you just chalking it up to “fake news”?

At what point will “enough be enough”? Because if you’re just going to defend him blindly, regardless of what’s actually transpired or simply because the wrong media outlet reported it, you’re worshiping Jr., not God.

I am genuinely interested in hearing just how far some of you are willing to go.

After reading both sides of this thread I feel that The Dark Side has new members on one hand but is also sort of now The Moderate Side. I’m not sure how I feel as it’s Potentate
I can’t believe people are just discarding the information because of The Media. Which makes you wonder what they believe and where they get their information from. Or how this type of information should get out
Also people, mainly people who Tupac a thread, think anything Junior does is one step away from The Mark of the Beast.
I will be very very surprised if anything happens. This is who Liberty is now. For better or worse

Here are the two things I find most interesting:

1) Jerry has yet to deny any of these things. He has said they were obtained illegally but hasn’t tried to say he didn’t say these things or didn’t treat people how he’s accused of treating them.

2) Jerry (and his supporters) continue to make this about Trump or the liberal media. Most people I’ve talked to about this who want Jerry out actually voted for Trump. This isn’t about his political affiliation. It’s about how he treats people and his overall lifestyle. Politics has nothing to do with it.

The 2015 email about parking that ROOTERS is making a big deal out of? Telling kids that they need to follow the rules or go to another college? Wah.

The 2010 email about the retarded kid? Nothing there either. He said that he was a nice kid. Period. He just made an observation that he was emotionally imbalanced and physically retarded. Oh wait... that's what the holier than thou crowd doesn't like. Jerry used an NON-APPROVED NON-PC TERM.... Wah.

Notice that ROOTERS didn't provide partial screen grabs of the other e-mails. So I don't believe anything they say about those.
Is this a parody or the mentally challenged kid?

My only concern is if those who are organizing a protest want Liberty to get further away from its mission. However, JR is certainly doing a good job of that himself.
