They become journalism proffessors at ISU and mizzou.
:biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh::biglaugh:
To be honest, I don't see a big problem with JP addressing it. The last thing we need is for some little thing like this to turn ISU into a dumpster fire like mizzou. Nip it in the bud and move on.
I wish it could have just been left alone, but not nowadays.

I am not Christian. Good guess that I'm white having told you I'm of Swedish descent though. I'm basically invisible.
Even if I was a white Christian male though we're not talking about what people go through. I've gone through a lot of stuff in my life, but whether I was born black, gay, white, mexican, female, asian, catholic, whatever... It's all personal choice. And the belief right now in America is "I'm offended, so therefore I am correct in being so." Which just isn't true. You can play the victim or learn to grow thick skin and move on. People have said racist things about who I am, sexist things towards my sexuality, and straight up ridiculed my religious views. I just choose not to care (not because I'm a white male), but because we all have the ability to ignore. It's a huge waste of our time if we get upset everytime someone said something offensive that applied to us as individuals. So in that I totally agree it's a terrible waste of mental energy. I have a sizeable amount of hispanic/Mexican friends and I find it hard to believe ANY of them would be offended by the Three Amigos...and even in the off chance that they were, I can guarantee they wouldn't spend any mental time on it drumming out an unnecessary apology from a college athletic director.
I'd rather have a team that offends people when they dress up (photoshop) themselves into Latino gear than what we have had in the past three years when the offensive action occurred when they dressed up like football players. Since I can't fault the effort of any player maybe I can go back further and say that some of the people who dressed up as coaches were probably pretty offensive to good coaches around the league.
Doesn't anyone understand the tongue and cheek ironey that the movie is all about? It's three ignorant white pampered actors, thinking they are going to play grand pumba in Mexico. That movie if anything makes fun of stupid white people. This whole thing just baffles me.
I honestly don't think they went into deep research on this. I'm sure it was more "hey we are trying to market the team on social media, Cinco de mayo is coming up, what could we do". "Last time I was at a Mexican restaurant for my birthday they put a sombrero on me and sang. Let's photoshop some current players in mariachi outfits." "How bout three amigos!".
And that's the extent of the thought, and that's the sad part, 99% of people would think the same way, find the humor, and not even think there would be an issue.

I just noticed their numbers on the belt buckles. Someone put some thought into this.
How did this even become an issue, some student group? Sounds like they are just wanting some attention so they made an issue out of it.
umm you care to edit your post ?
it was in before some butthurt safe room millennials started to whine
good gawd can't wait till this PC garbage culture leaves this country
I'm 61% Swedish according to my DNA test results. However, I also have Italian/Greek, Spanish and Irish DNA so I am not totally white. I completely agree with what you've said above. I've had people ridicule me for various things because they had erroneously stereotyped me. Been discriminated against because of my gender (male). I've had people accost me because they assumed that being a Swedish male I'd be a right wing fanatic (I'm a registered Independent).
I've been subject to work place violence. I've had many offensive rumors started about me, too many to list and most are hilariously funny. However, I choose to ignore them (sometimes I get a good laugh about them) and go about my business. I've never played the "that offends me card" and choose to just keep on going and ignore it all.
Unless there's something else you're not listing, yes you are. Greek might be borderline asian, but the rest are as white as a country music concert in North Dakota.
Actually, I'm going to amend even that statement. "Caucasian" comes from the Caucasus mountains, which is in Georgia/Russia, east of Greece. You all white, brah.
