First, I don't consider this a "UVA board". Sure that's where it originated


from, but it's a politics board which has no relevance to where someone went to school. It's not like Hokies visiting the sports boards and being rude a-hole guests. I just appreciate solid and meaningful posts I can learn from, even if I don't agree with them. And to consider it a "UVA board" suggests that anyone that didn't go to UVA is somehow lesser or less able to contribute, be it a Hokie, Laz, Waxie, or hooever. I don't consider them lesser or unable to contribute because they didn't go to UVA. Surely someone from "the Party of Tolerance" would feel the same way.

Second, actually yes, I do support it. Obviously Psycho was doing some flaming, but his point remains valid. If a large number of the Eagles team wants to make a point, or garner kudos from the Trump haters by taking a "stand" and refusing to go to the White House, that is absolutely their right. But it's not their right to dictate how people react to their doing so, be it fans or Trump. And even if it's petty IMO, it's certainly Trump's right to say "if you want to try and embarrass me, you're no longer welcome here." Basically he's saying you don't get to shit on his "UVA board", or "be a lil bitch", and expect him to just roll over and let you.
