I love Sigma Chis but I wish people would operate under the "if it isn't a necessary theme and has the potential to offend anyone, do something else" rule.
|
I had to just point out this little piece of idiocy.

Agreed. Maybe we should just sit in our fraternity houses and do nothing all year long.

Shut up. If you can't leave your fraternity house without offending a group of people then you're a waste of flesh and college tuition.

I am sure that someone could be "offended" by just about everything we do...no matter how dumb or idiotic we may think it is for them to feel that way.

This is a typical response in an attempt to remove all sense of responsibility from people. Freedom of speech, along with all freedoms, is not unlimited.

Yeah, so your liberal brainwash is pretty funny. Could you use any more marxist language? Throw in the words "proleteriat" and "bourgeoisie" and you've got yourself The Communist Manifesto.

I find it hard to believe you've read that book or any other book.

Oh chill out, seriously. If you think I was being completely serious in my response about staying in our fraternity houses......then you are taking all of this way too seriously.
The facebook invitation was overboard......obviously, and uncalled for......however.....the party itself wasn't that huge of a deal in my book. It was a themed party in which the BSU tried to find things that were "racist" that weren't actually there, i.e. the depiction of a lynching, etc.

DSTS, how is that taking responsibility away from people? Taking responsibility away from people is when you criminalize (or in this case, have the university take action) in order to prevent future events. If you really wanted to emphasize responsibility, you'd let these people generally do what they want, let them deal with the consequences, and leave it up to the offended party to make a decision on what to do/not do in response.

Yep and without that the BSU wouldn't have had a reason to get started.

You have enough of your own posts to use to highlight idiocy.
