I honestly don't think the SAE members thought the chant was okay. I think they were going for shock value for their dates and were just having a good time living dangerously by chanting stuff they knew would turn some heads. I'm just trying to get into the mind of a 19 year old privileged white kid (not too hard for me to do) and think that's more what was going on here. I'm not sure that's enough to make someone racist... but it certainly calls into question their judgment and character.

I'd personally love to think that anyone dumb enough to think it's okay to sing about lynching is also too dumb to be in a position of hiring authority, but that's not the country we live in.

But that's not what you said. You said:

Let's be honest, there are plenty of people out there to whom these guys just became great candidates for employment.

Which could be taken no other way than that you really think employers are going to seek these guys out because they appear to be racist.
