If you have private business, start a private forum somewhere else.
As far as hatred, I don't recall anyone of accusing any organization (specifically Alpha Phi Alpha) of promoting hatred. I did, however, accuse the members of such groups of tolerating hatred.
As a human being, when I see that kind of silence, I will call it out. I've been vocal on GC when I've seen it from
all ethnic backgrounds, and will continue to be so.
There are still many apologies owed from all those who were dismissive of PHAShriner. Attempting to diminish his hatred and racism diminishes all of us, and the collective stated ideals of those organizations that aspire to higher ideals.
Greeks can be united when we all attempt to live up to our stated ideals. It applies to all of us, and it was not just NPHC members who were offensive in this recent online melee. The "Barbarians" thread should have been shut down, but lets not pretend that this was the opening salvo. It wasn't even close. Until just one person who posted in one of PHAShriners threads displays the human decency to denounce him, in my eyes, the common ground that I thought existed was just an illusion.
