I found that response to her ignorance so hilarious! The thread should have been locked after that post because it was the most perfect ending.

CT4, this article has me steamed! Where was I when this came out? This article gives not only Alcorn a bad name but all HBCU's a bad name. It only takes one article to do a lifetime of damage. This a-hole probably saw ASU once and stopped the first white person he saw willing to talk to him about this stupid-a** subject. Then he tried to gussy it up (yeah I said gussy, lol) by making it sound good at the end. How do you feel about that? Doesn't it make you mad to see people like him put our schools on front street without addressing the very SAME problems they have (and comments) from HWCU's?
See, URP is back !

SIDEBAR: I attend a racially "diverse" (so they say it's still an HWCU) campus and the attitude is the same about the school I attend and it is nationally ranked as well as ASU.

The thread was eventually locked after the "rediculous" poster. After all, the whole thing is "downright ludacris."
:rolleyes:

LMAO!

I dont know how you guys have the patience for those arguments anymore. Our opinions and their opinions are two different things and never the two shall meet. There will be no conversions on either side.

Soror, I've been there and I'm with you -- I come to GC to enjoy myself with intelligent people, not trade flames with the ignorant.

That thread petered out four months ago. But once again, an ignorant member of the GC community didn't know to let the s**t die, or a mod should have locked it sooner.

lovelyivy84 04-30-2003 12:37 PM

Soror ST it's just that at this point we have ALL been in that discussion. THe only times I participate anymore are when I want to vent, lol.

They are always good when you feel like being a bitch to someone who can't really answer back in any coherent manner, although after a while it gets to easy. I mean why bother arguing with PM Mama? I know I'll win the argument. I just will. There's no mystery there.

LOL, that's true. Thanks Soror LI84 for making me think about it that way. And it's almost too easy to make sport of the ingorant (sic).:p

As suggested by Honeykiss1974
 
On the Russian subject...

Sistermadly - maybe it was just where and how I was brought up, but I didn't think anything about a white woman joining Zeta Phi Beta, but that she was Russian. The University system and obviously the culture are so different I find her nationality more interesting than her being white. The Greek system is definitely an American thing, though fraternal organizations are not. I am moving back to the lower 48 (hurrah!!!) but if I was staying here I'd take a serious look at Delta Sigma Theta. The ladies here are always representing themselves well, and I see them in their letters all over town. Even in Japan the Deltas were visible and doing their thing well. I would rather be in a group that is about something, than one that you never hear about and never has their name in the paper for all the good works. Not that all NPC groups are like one I am thinking of, but forming a colony because you and your friends all have boyfriends in a fraternity is not for me; having sisterhood and making the world a better place is.

Secondly...I am in complete agreement with all the comments about the people who post with complete stupidity. Where did they grow up and how did they become so ignorant? I had a discussion with my friend about the blackface incidents and she almost signed up for an account so she could post comments of her own. How can anyone ever think that is okay? EVER? Or a "ghetto fab" party...what goes through their heads and what world do they live in? As far as interracial relationships go, my best friend is the product of one, and she is such a great friend I am all for them.

Maybe there should be a thread...though it is mean spirited and would likely be locked "stupid post of the week". My nomination is for the guy who thought black people chose to be branded with their affiliation because tattoo ink wouldn't work on their skin. Or perhaps the people defending the Kappa Sigs in Tennessee because "it is a costume party". What scares me more is that these people somehow made it into college, and they may BREED!!!!

Hey what can I say...ya'll don't 'take no mess'. :D

I think it was Wonderful1908 that said it best, these forums (although from time to time I do post in CC) are all-inclusive and more connected to my interests...one stop shop!

What say me? I say, although I do post in CC if we're talking shopping or Queer Eye, as an example, I was turned off by certain threads -- Auburn, prejudism, etc. No offense to John Hammell, but there are four pissant racist instigators who I'm thinking of right now who need to be BLOCKED and thrown off, although Trollshika and Trollshiko McTroll always come back with new usernames.:mad: :rolleyes:

I'm a little lost!!!!
 
Without interracial dating I would not have been created!!!! My mom (who is African-American) and my dad (who is Puerto Rican) came together to share a life and create a beautiful child (Me!!!). I was raised to look within a person (at their qualities) when I decided to find my mate. I wanted to be treated with respect and I wanted to be valued!!! It just so happens that my "Prince Charming" is African-American. I choose him because he reminded me of my dad....he was sweet, respectful, and supportive of my dreams. Not to mention S.L.A.M. (sexy like a motherf*@cker!!!!). So....love who you love.
