Mond as the senior QB is the unmitigated leader of this team.

Warranted or not, true or false, agree or disagree, his Twitter posts are taking a stance re: racism.

In the current times, this may divide the team if he continues to post his views as it forces some players to take sides.

IMO, Jimbo & Co. will need to address this issue so that it does not divide the team & the more Mond posts, the harder it will be to keep the team united.

Geez, Social Media is "The Devil". :-(

His twitter posts take a stand on racism???

Oh, that's what he is doing. Thanks for the explanation.

I thought he was sounding like a complete jack a$$ and perpetuating discrimination and hate.

I have zero problem with the photo. I have a huge problem with the 12 Tribes of Israel group that posted it and he retweeted It from. They are an extreme hate group that loathe white people and Jews.
I talk to him when I am lonesome like; and I am sure he understands. When he looks at me so attentively, and gently licks my hands; then he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes, but I never say naught thereat. For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes, but never a friend like that. ~W. Dayton Wedgefarth

He's either ignorant or a racist.

Let's hope he is ignorant. I pray that is the case.

Mond, you can be a leader and try to unite people (like The great Aggie Jason Glenn) or you can seek to divide and preach hate, racism and discrimination. If a multitude of people think you are doing the later, you might want to rethink your approach. You want Aggies to look back and think of you as a Jason Glenn, and not be referred to as a Kellen Mond.

Both. I've lost all respect for Mond at this point. To any black race-baiters, you can view that as yet another white man "not getting it," but that would be "confirmation bias." You don't know me. I am a Christian, study Hebrew, travel to Israel annually, spend time with theology, and am aware of who this "Israelite" hate group is. I love all and hate racism in ANY form. Mond is now a confirmed RACIST in my mind. As is any black person who continues to view present-day issues only through the lens of race. I'll stop there, I have many points rolling through my mind on it, based on many examples of "black racism" that is rampant today. But I will say this to any person of color that continues down this path... judge people not on the color of their skin, but on the content of their character. The fact that Mond re-tweated that, well, is all the evidence I need to know he does not do that.

I'll give him a pass on this one. The picture is just his opinion and fairly benign, even if I don't agree with the premise the picture is created upon.

Now if he actually follows that group, he needs to get kicked out immediately. One of my high school teammates started following that group (maybe joined?) and it was crazy. They hate white people. Like hate. Like say they will enslave us one day hate. Plus they hate pretty much all Christians, Jews, etc. they are freaking crazy.

Then why not just post the picture? He retweeted it off their page. He had to see it somewhere. Did someone send it to him or is he actively involved with the group? Someone is leading him down the wrong road.

Mond is obviously being fed this stuff - in his initial attack on Sully I seriously doubt he discovered, studied and interpreted the second Morrill Act of 1890. And I don't mean he is getting it from discussions with his Oline or fellow students.

Any clues where this is coming from?

Are all prominent people one of the faces of our school? Are all prominent people trying make changes to our school? Are all prominent people insinuating that anyone who disagrees with him at A&M are Racist?

Let's say our starting QB was white and was re-tweeting things from a twitter page that hated blacks. I would hope everyone at A&M and across the country would be outraged.

Based on what has been shown, his (and at least one other player's) stance on racism is Pro. I hope a few of the team members are good men and it does cause division on the team.

If it doesn't divide the team we have bigger problems and need to clean house. Send everyone packing, take a couple of years off, and start from scratch.

I have a huge problem with the meme. It implies that nothing has changed. That conditions are as bad today. And that is simply a lie.

X 1,000,000... I just said this to my contact at the University. Imagine we had a white QB re-tweet a picture from a Nazi hate group. Mond does NOT "deserve a pass" for being stupid on this one. He's shown what he actually believes in his heart by also simultaneously calling for the "defunding of the Corps." Stop with the "give the kid a break" bullshize. You know a racist when you see one, and Mond views everything through the lens of racism.

I'm not going to take sides on whether Mond is right to be doing what he is doing or not.

But some of you acting like every re-tweet of something is an explicit endorsement of the feelings of the owner of the Twitter account that got re-tweeted are really stretching to make a point.

Most of you had zero idea who the "12 Tribes of Israel" were. You're looking to get offended. It's a fringe religious group that sometimes demeans other religions or races in the "name of religion" -- most of it isn't doesn't even rise to the level of what you read daily on the Politics forum or what you'd hear outside of earshot from "good Christian folk".

People have wacky ideas about their religious beliefs being correct and other's being wrong -- it's a story literally as old as time.

You mean, Mond may have made a mistake, and we shouldn't judge him as a person based upon that mistake. Hmmmm.

Anyone associated with, condones, promotes, etc this racist group is a RACIST him/herself.

Yeah, I said it... therefore QBMond is a racist and needs to be removed from any and all association with our great university! Full Stop!

That's not what i said at all.

The tweet itself wasnt offensive.

Acting like the tweet somehow condones all the actions of the fringe religious group that tweeted it is exactly the kind of crap most of us dont want.

Mond is being careless, but is there any proof that he actually knew what those nutcases stood for? He probably just agreed with the message in the photo. Nobody misunderstands what "nazi" or "klan" or "aryan*" mean

The photo's message is extremely argumentative, but so is politics. I dislike his politics, but appreciate his potential as a QB.


*I realize "aryan" were a real people group millenia ago. But unless it is a lecture or essay about antiquity, there is a 99% chance it pertains to nazism.

For those that want to say "but did he know," don't be so naive. He wants to "defund the Corps." And yes, me, a white man, immediately knew what the "12Tribes" is. How much more readily would someone that ascribes to Mond's philosophy likely know what it was? Last, simply take a couple minutes and search instagram and twitter. When you Follow things on social media, are you saying you don't have any idea what-so-ever about what you are Following?

Mond is a racist. Him sharing a 12Tribes post is no different than a white QB sharing a KKK post. If Mond wasn't being so militant lately and didn't call for the defunding of the Corp, I "may" believe the "ooopsie" excuse. But I'm not that naive.

He's following a HATE GROUP on social media... Why don't people see that point. It has nothing to do with the actual picture. I don't agree with the actual picture's point (that racism is just as bad today as it was over 100 years ago). But how is it ANY different than a white QB re-tweeting a picture of a flower posted by the KKK?!?! He's following a HATE group! That tells you what's in his mind.

Comparing retweeting 12tribes to retweeting the klan is an absolute joke.

You're pissed at #defundthecorps and are just looking for more to pile on about. The bulk of what 12tribes preaches isnt anymore irrational than the stuff you see on the politics and religion forums - its just not *your* brand of crazy.

Being pissed about Sul or defund, sure that is justified. This stuff is just trying way too hard to be offended.

It's distorting the word of God. No wonder this kid is so mixed up. He has no true spiritual knowledge or direction. He needs our prayers. At the same time there will be consequences for his conduct.

"Comparing retweeting 12tribes to retweeting the klan is an absolute joke."



Both groups hate others because of their skin color.

Both groups think they are superior because of their skin color.

Both groups hate jews and Catholics.
