The problem is that it no longer happens at universities. Unfortunately, it started with my generation, I think. I know, Millennials often get blamed for the degradation of society, but yeah, our generation did that. Civil conversations have disappeared, and shouting everyone else down has replaced it. That's the clear and obvious problem that I'm trying to point out. Protests are no longer peaceful. Just reminds me of the time Chris Cuomo asked about the George Floyd protests "Show me where it says protestors are supposed to be polite and peaceful?" Well, I'd suggest a re-read on the First Amendment, but I'm not a lawyer like Chris Cuomo is...
Basically, the crux of my point is "Everyone is pretty terrible and should start respecting the rights and opinions of others...but I'm certainly not holding my breath until it happens."

If you are signed in, just go to the off topic board like this one and click onto the conversation in which you want to participate--there is no difference.

I think he was asking where the off topic Board is.
If I'm correct, go up to the top where it says "Location" and click on "Forum Index." The Off-Topic Board is underneath both the Ivy and the Patriot Boards in the "Basketball U" file.
