Believe it was SDMV that first introduced the NRA issue into the conversation - stating their integrity and how Aztec faithful should follow their lead as a prime example of a group that knows how to solve a situation - Never Accept any revision of anything . Yes I did respond to the idea that the NRA -was not in my opinion a prime example of a group that Aztec faithful should follow - Also seems as though it was Dem60 who had the very interesting reach bringing the " Guns issue" into the conversation and how this is about restricting His Natural Right to self defense ? I also did not bring up the issue about CALIFORNIA and the way things are going in the state - would be interesting to get an interpretation about those thoughts Or maybe it is the idea that I believed and defended the President when she Had a written statement that she Supported the AZTEC name . The Most important part of the discussion . Yet others followed with a variety of ideas that included she was a racist .... and other derogatory thoughts that was going along with or part of the plan to change the name . do realize - even though others see me as Naive , ....., ... that the Demographics in CA , San Diego or other parts of the US have been evolving and some may find this as a difficult thing to be comfortable with . So some may choose to deny, reflect or claim their rights or way of life is being taken away T , Demographics? The group that have complaints about the warrior over the last 20 years are from areas that have Zero connections to the Aztecs or Mesoamerica. None what so ever. If the decision is going to be made by demographics, (maybe it should), then the growing Hispanic population in SD should be weighed heavily... My anecdotal evidence would wager the warrior is a symbol of pride. Getting rid of the Aztec identity is, and has been, political. There are people who want to change things just because they enjoy the feel of power in doing so. The Aztec warrior is not racist. Thew Aztecs empire did make war with other tribes, just like many tribes here in, what is now the US did. They enslaved those they conquered as well, just like many Indian nations here in the states did. A more modern society came and did to them what they did to others. That is what happens when a more derived society meets one that is more primitive. I have joked on here that, were we to replace our Aztec identity, that we should go with the Conquistadors. After all, they did conquer the Aztecs and they made their way up to San Diego afterwards.

Why do alumni not have a voice or vote? I know big donors probably have a strong voice and significant sway ... but no one has ever asked me or any of my fellow alum friends to weigh in. Seems to be missing out on the most important - and certainly largest -segment of people related to this issue.

I think the sneaky (post it in a Friday with school shutdown on an obscure blog that no one even knows about) and cowardly way the announcement was made tells us all we need to know.

I go back to the first Post that the President said about the topic - The outfit is being retired BUT the AZTEC name will be there Past Present and Future
Then numerous Posters commented that the President was a wide variety of things that included being a Racist , so I felt I should be allowed to give my opinion that this Post was about the outfit and not the Aztec Nickname . Others continued with their opinions about her and her opinions and numerous other groups plus variety of other thoughts , or theories that were going to lead to the Nick Name Aztecs being dropped .
I did Not bring up the NRA or the thoughts that the correct path for Aztec faithful was to follow the NRA ideology and its righteous about Never allowing any revision to any issue or their stance on issues - There was also the mention of lobbyists and I did comment that the NRA does its fair share of Lobbying to gets its way and it may even include decent amount money given to those running for office
I did Not bring up the opinion of- Californians and what it looks like for CALIFORNIA as things continue moving forward ?. Still would appreciate your thoughts of what you are trying to tell us about California and its future ? Do wonder why you have not given us your thoughts about CALIFORNIA I can say I am very proud to be a Californian , .
Did not bring up Guns or the idea that "... Natural Right to Self Defense is being challenged " Seems more then a stretch .

Standiego, I am sure we've never met, but all of my experience on this board reveals you to be a very pleasant and fair guy. You are likely right (I'm too lazy to check) regarding what you did or didn't bring up, but don't you know that denying, then delineating the "sins" of the wayward thread, TWICE, gives you a "guilty" look even if undeserved? You seem WAY too defensive, for something in which you only tangentially partook. We all have rocks and glass houses.

For the third time I’m not going to discuss politics here. The moderator even states as much in the thread. Also, no, the sentences you just typed are still not close to being grammatically correct. Look at everyone else’s sentences on this board and then look at your own. I’m by no means a grammar nazi but your sentences hurt my eyes.
