west coast pretty boy-

For your information, the reason I brought this up was because of a conversation with some friends who happen to be AFRICAN-AMERICAN GREEKS AND PERSONALLY THINK IT REFLECTS THE ATTITUDE OF OWNERSHIP associated with slavery. I could care less if you want to brand your body in 50 places to show what a diehard fratboy you are... it's a shame you have to cling to your frat so much that you can't exercise any free thought.

I think it is an interesting hypothesis about the act of branding, so I wanted to hear some other opinions. I expected folks to defend it, and I just wondered if they saw the same association or not.

I also think it is great to have pride in your GLO, and if that is one way you want to show your pride, more power to you. (As long as it is your decision).

To the rest of you folks who responded,
thank you for acting like mature adults & speaking w/ open minds. I guess on the west coast that is considered ignorance or something.
