1. A couple of things I would like to say. Tom is not a moderator of this forum. He is a moderator of his fraternity's forum on GC and not Greek Life, so your point about that is meaningless since he simply isn't.
2. The usage of ASSume bothers me. Why not use assume, because ASSume is an insulting way to make your point. Tom hasn't said anything that is just so universally ridiculous that you should say that. I will still say I have no idea why Tom writes the way he does in "Tom Speak".
3. Neicy has repeatedly made statements that are wrong but simply right in her mind. When someone makes a comment in regards to her statements, she laces her comments with insults. Funny thing, and in a sense ironic, is that her insults are mostly based on proving to someone else that they aren't smart.
Personally I believe everyone has the right to use their freedom of speech - even if it is to make comments that are filled with hate. But I would say that the school should exercise their right to rid themselves of this hate by eliminating this house. I would say that the national fraternity should exercise their right to stem off hate and promote the values of their founders by eliminating this house. And I would say that other chapters and potential new members should exercise their right to be part of an organization that does not promote such values.

Okay... first of all... was this REALLY necessary?
Don't you think that in stating this statement you are also making a judgement in a similar fashion? Or to quote your own words, don't you think this just helps "propogate all of the hatred." Come on now.... you're a moderator... so MODERATE not instigate!
Moreover, don't you think in making this statement,
that you are making a generalization that all the GCers hold the same opinion as you? Better yet, it seems as if you ASSume that we'll all naturally take your side.
Also, in light of the manner you chose to respond, doesn't it seem that you are the one attacking someone? As you seem convinced that neicy has come to do? (evidenced in the statements below)
To me, it seems rather difficult to conceive these statements as a means to "help each other in a more positive way" when they seem to be attacks every which way.
Now, the fact that I'm posting this DOES NOT MEAN that I am supportive of Neicy. Nor DOES IT MEAN that I fully support Tom Earp. Rather, I am simply trying to point out how criticizing one person can easily lead to the criticism of yourself, which in turn can easily be the cause of racism, bigotry, stereotypical notions, negativity, etc, that we all supposedly condone.
