As a devout LDS and devout Dem I absolutely find them both offensive.

Both faiths/cultures represents beliefs which are quite significant to me. I very much resent having to endure the Let’s Go Brandon taunts at public events.

I should have the right to go to games and public events without taunts such as this.

Hal Boyd needs to “let it go”

BlueBuffoon

Oh please. Equating “Let’s go Brandon” to “F the Mormons”. What a loser

Has there been a "let's go Brandon" chant at BYU yet? I never heard one while at LES

Bert609

11/29/21 9:37pm

I think some students have tried to get it started, and there have been signs.

Kavorka

11/29/21 9:39pm

Yes - and it was embarrassing

Yes. Video:

Two guys and no one joined in.

How many people were chanting at USC? What’s the acceptable number of chanters?

MarkWatney

11/29/21 10:10pm

Enough to hear it clearly on live tv

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:15am

For about 30 seconds....long enough to think "are they saying what I think they

And this wasn't the only time it happened either. There was a bigger group of

I hope so, since young people are the ones impacted most by his economy

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 9:54pm

And that chant has the power to change it all!

MarkWatney

11/29/21 9:55pm

They didn't say "let's go liberals."

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 10:14pm

No that would be a belief of the eft as they protest everything under the sun

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:16am

Justifying bad behavior doesn't make it acceptable. I'm sure if you asked

Blueto

11/29/21 9:59pm

Please. BYU didn't chant against against a class of people. Just dumb Biden.

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 10:02pm

Inappropriate and unnecessary for a football game and should be below BYU.

Kavorka

11/29/21 10:17pm

Nothing about a game is necessary. Only inappropriate with original wording.

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 10:27pm

Isn’t the meaning the same? It’s low class and lame. I know many of you can’t

Kavorka

11/29/21 10:35pm

Yeah, but the meaning isn't offensive. Just the bad words.

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 10:40pm

Lol, you have no clue what my political opinion is. A chant that means F (insert

11/29/21 10:49pm

Should the World Series apologize because they didn't quiet people booing Trump?

Mike Bolton

11/29/21 10:58pm

Huh? First off, I never suggested anyone apologize so I have no idea what you’re

Kavorka

11/29/21 11:03pm

So saying “let’s Go” is the equivalent of saying F? And disdain directed towards

Osteotome

11/29/21 11:30pm

The origin and meaning of that particular chant is literally F Joe Biden.

Kavorka

11/29/21 11:35pm

So you don’t say flip, fetch, dang, gosh darn or son of a gun then ?

Osteotome

11/29/21 11:40pm

What are you even talking about at this point?

Kavorka

11/29/21 11:47pm

It’s very appropriate that this chant was born at a car race. Because only

Jstak17

Also doesn’t make it close to the same thing to chant “let’s go Brandon”

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:18am

Lowest unemployment claims in last 50 years.

Cswilliam01

11/30/21 12:11am

Both are classless.

Blueto

11/29/21 9:39pm

The equivalent would be if USC chanted an innuendo that everyone knew

Jstak17

11/29/21 10:11pm

Let’s go Brandon is about one guy and all of the people butt hurt

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:21am

So it’s ok to say it if it’s just to one individual? Nice justification. When

Jstak17

11/30/21 6:22am

They're just trying to start a dialogue.

Mike Bolton

11/30/21 7:32am

The mental gymnastics here are amazing

Blueto

11/30/21 7:01am

Sporting events are fair game for political discussion

Mike Bolton

11/30/21 7:27am

I liked it when sports was an escape from all that. I guess no longer.

As a devout LDS and devout Dem I absolutely find them both offensive.

Cswilliam01

11/30/21 12:06am

I can’t stand Joe Biden, but I agree the chant is undignified and offensive.

Sandstone Cougar

11/30/21 12:49am

But let’s go Brandon isn’t about you. Unless you worship Biden I suppose

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:22am

False equivalency again rears its cowardly head.

spoxjox

11/29/21 9:34pm

As a Dem who cares deeply about Democratic values -I find them equally classless

Cswilliam01

11/30/21 12:14am

That’s absurd. Joe Biden is not a protected class and there’s nondiscrimination

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:23am

How prevalent are Brandon chants anyway? DN makes it seem like an official chant

ochobeeguy

11/29/21 9:38pm

Are he and I the only ones who heard "those Mormons," not "the Mormons"?

Gustav

11/29/21 9:39pm

A good chant back would be “we won’t” or “we don’t do that”

stonecougar

11/29/21 9:48pm

He’s spot on though. The let’s go Brandon chant at the BYU football game was

BlooCoog

11/29/21 10:01pm

Because we were playing joe Biden?

stonecougar

11/29/21 10:06pm

Derogatory terms against the sitting president of United States was pretty much

Osteotome

11/29/21 10:11pm

Honestly how could anyone disagree the two chants aren’t the same thing?

BYU '80

11/30/21 1:24am

Looks like a lot of people on CB need to "let it go" as well
