UGa Chi Phis declared 'open season' on black women?

No. I said that comparing the issue of abortion to racism does not make any sense. Now, of course this is my opinion. People debate about whether abortion is right or wrong. When it comes the issue of racism, IT IS CLEARY WRONG! LOL That's what I'm saying.

Not so long ago, this statement was not true. I'm not sure it's even true today. There are some folks who think racism is perfectly alright, that their race is superior to the other(s), etc. They might not call it racism, but "white supremacy," or folks that believe in the melanin theory, etc.

People opposed to abortion (again, I'm not one of them, but I think this is a great example [/b]{if you say so...}[/b])believe that abortion is the same as killing babies. What you are saying is that it's okay to offend someone who thinks you're promoting baby killing (never said that), but an action which states nothing racist, but makes you feel they had racial intentions (it was inappropriate) is not okay? Those are some interesting lines you've drawn there.

Okay, so you think that the group rallying for abortion rights ought to be punished for their views if they offend others? Because if you say you "never said that," then you must be supportive of the idea of punishing ANY offensive speach. The trouble with that is that what is offensive to one person is not offensive to another. Where do you want to draw the line? Would you punish Christians rallying against homosexual rights? Or would you punish homosexuals rallying against Christians? Israelis protesting terrorist activities? Or would you punish Palestinian students for protesting the Israeli occupation?

You don't seem to mind punishing some speach, so which speach is okay, and which isn't? Are you the one who gets to decide this? Also, what makes you think that this is racism? The picture is of a black woman. So what? Are all pictures of black women racist?

Those probationary MEMBERS represent Chi Phi. There are some things that you just don't do when you are representing a national organization. Actions must take place. Chi Phi IS responsible for the actions of their PROBATIONARY MEMBERS and they must be accountable for them.

What type of 'actions' would you have take place? I appreciate that you are offended, but besides you, who should care about your being offended? Why Chi Phi? Why not also punish the French Club if these guys are members of that as well?

I don't mean to sound harsh. I appreciate your responses.
