Sure, it's valid but it seems quite off-topic on this board? If he wants to discuss race relations on here that's fine, I don't have to look at the post but at least come out and admit you want to discuss the issues raised in the article. To relate this to officiating becomes a REAL stretch unless you are in the SICA conference.
If you had been around longer than a few weeks, then you might see a lot of posts that do not directly relate to the masses. Any topic that deals with a conference and the breakdown of that conference is officiating related. What is happening in the SICA conference could happen anywhere in the country. Especially in urban areas and the many suburbs that surround them.

Peace
Were you honestly trying to start a discussion related to conference issues or posting an article that lent itself to political discussion? It didn't take long for you to expand upon your own POLITICAL views once "Bush in 2004" started ranting about you. He either hit a nerve or that's what your purpose was in the first place.

Again, I have no problem with this if your motive is truly to have a political discussion on race relations. It costs me nothing to simply ignore the thread if I want to but if you start defending your original post on the guise it was "official/conference" related, you sound disingenuous.
