At least with an NPHC org, someone will be playing dominoes or Bid Whist or spades and there might be an egg toss or potato sack race. But nothing involving hurting other people simply because they are of a different creed, race, ethnic group, whatever... I mean, I truly dislike egg tosses because I always get the crashed egg... LOL...
Wait... what?

I don't understand. Am I missing something?

Or do you think NIC fraternities go around beating up people because they're Black/Muslim/Jewish/Atheist/etc?

Hey, if the shoe fits... It's happened in the past, what makes you think it won't happen again? Don't be like the kids at Jena 6 having to deal with the nooses...

It may NOT be the entire organization, but "rogue chapters or members" who allow this craziness to continue.

The same can be said about the NPHC underground pledging. What else can be done? A whole slew of people being expelled from the organization because they cannot follow the National HQ agreed upon rules?

What is it that our International organization's espouse? Then why would we want to select members who seem to have a psychosis?
