Also, no trashing Mond please, he is doing what he believes is right based on what he has read, I just believe he is missing important points.

This. His opinion is just as important as anyone else's, even if you don't agree with him.
This is ridiculous thinking. Hilter had an opinion, Stalin had an opinion, Mao had an opinion. Lots of people have really stupid and I mean stupid, opinions. It is fine to call them out, fine to point out why they are wrong in your viewpoint. Everyone doesn't have to agree with each other. To do that is the "oohh, can't we all get along" SJW way of thinking. Mond is welcome to his opinions and we all have the right to say they are stupid opinions.

Comparing young folks protesting racial issues (for better or worse) to the most murderous and genocidal dictators in our history . . . . . . .

Yeah, no.

I'm certainly going to disagree with the jump to Hitler there. Having an opinion that all Jewish people should be systematically killed vs. a statue of a guy who was a confederate soldier should be taken down is not equal.

Mond is not a bad person, he's just bought into the idea of individualism and it has misguided him. I'd love a sit down with him on this subject but he's already got people in his ear.

I jumped to the absurd because some cannot see the subtle. You are correctly saying those world guys had opinions on things that were wrong. Gigantically wrong, undeniably wrong and deserving of much rebuke. We can all look at each other and agree on that. Well, Mond and the track guy are a super quantum leap down, infinitesimal by comparison, not even in the same galaxy. But that does mean their opinions are not open to criticism, yet every thread on Mond has the pro-forma "he is entitled to his opinion and we can't criticize him for that". BS..

He totally has a right to his opinion ... my issue with him is that in his tweets he's pretty much called those defending Sully as racist /supporters of racism. That is the problem. He attacked the character of a large number of fellow Ags because they have a different opinion than him. That's not leadership nor open and honest discourse ... it's an immature temper tantrum to try and get his way.
Well there are several people (on this board) that attacked his character because he over-throws receivers ..

I actually have MORE respect for him after reading his letter, because at least he took time to learn about the issue he's talking about, which is more than I can say for 99.99% of statue-haters ....

Reading propaganda is not learning. It's filling your head with crap that will take a lot to un-learn.

What is kind of unique to Ross is that you can find a point in his life to support your assertion, I just find the assertion that he is some kind of symbol of white supremacy or the confederacy extremely weak.

Mond is not a bad person

Are there stories of Mond giving back to the community that haven't been shared? Where are the stories about Mond volunteering with charities? Has he spent time with sick kids?

Has Mond done anything other than for himself while at A&M?

Mond believes that he is now bigger than A&M. No one is bigger than A&M. Sully was here before Mond and should still be here when he leaves.

Sully and A&M are together and will always be together and he just cannot be erased like Mond is trying to do.

I don't think Mond is a bad person, but I do question his judgement from his likes and retweets of a known anti-Semitic group.

Why does Mond follow "The 12 Tribes of Israel". They are categorized as a hate group by the southern poverty law center standards. The (SPLC) described the ICGJC and other black supremacist Hebrew Israelite groups as "the extremist fringe" of the movement, "believing Jews are devilish impostors and ... openly condemn whites as evil personified, deserving only death or slavery".

Can you imagine the public outcry if a Caucasian student followed, liked and retweeted Posts from such a group?

Since Mond follows such a group, I question his judgment. I now also question if Mond truly wants equality for all races and religion.

Txrancher69 has a right to his opinion too and his remarks are no more ludicrous than Mond's

Often, people that give to charity don't find the need to brag about it publicly.
