[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for those concerned about racism in lacrosse - what is the end point - in other words, what would need to happen for you to be satisfied and move on?[/quote]
For the racism to stop.  People need to stop being racist.  That’s the simple solution.[/quote]

Well, if the bar for racism is a minority to not play their preferred position, or not have bad calls from a ref against them, I hate to break it to you, but that's not ever going to happen.

Prob doesn't help to have someone say "We can take over the sport", either.

What’s wrong with the girl being confident enough to say she can take over? Any kid should be given an equal chance to play the position they prefer and no player should have calls against them because them and be penalized for the sole reason of being Black.  Where in the rules is it a violation to say “I got ball”? Maybe it was a coincidence, but if the white players saying similar phrases weren’t penalized, I would also assume it was racism also.

Making all these excuses and trying to pretend the racism isn’t there doesn’t work.  I’d have more respect for you if you just admitted that you are comfortable being racist and don’t continue to stop, than making up all this BS and swearing the racism doesn’t exist.[/quote]
