If you think that war was fought over slaves and the "glorification of oppression"......I suggest you go stick your nose in a history book in order to un-misinform yourself. I don't know what you mean by people "waving the Confederacy in people's faces".......but I would assume you are referring to the KA's....which is rather idiotic.
As for your economic lesson........One fraternity house isn't going to raise the property value enough to tax poor old Granny right on out into the streets. I would imagine this was all taken into account when choosing a locale. Perhaps, like history, you should retreat back into an ECON1113 classroom. They can help you.
.....but hey, what do I know....i'm just a white boy born with a silver spoon up my butt. I'm also a racist because my founding fathers fought in the Civil War...................for the South.

Ok, you need to calm down. For real. I really don't care what your little degree is in, anyone can pick up a history book for themselves and just as many "facts" as you do. I'm sorry if I don't consider southern revisionist history as real history. And please stick to the subject. I know you can read, did I claim that the Civil War was only about slavery. When I re-read my post I don't see that anywhere, but maybe you can just see more through your little rose colored glasses. I also did not call you racist, you did that to yourself. I don't know you well enough to make that judgement.
The subject is not history, it's current events. I know you probably don't give a damn, but your frat house is going to cause alot of problems for alot of people. If it was your family, I'm sure you would want someone to consider the way they feel about.
