About where they would be if the "majority" really did feel true sympathy. And it would be a shame if they did because every human being on this planet deserves a lot more customary consideration than that which sympathy has to offer.

I think it is possible in this- and other- situations for the the person who pledged and the organization in question to both be in the wrong.

The young man who is the subject of this discussion has far greater challenges to face in his life than the acceptance of a student organization.

He made a bad decision. He is partially at fault for it. My message is walk away and move on realizing that others need to learn the lesson for themselves, or that he needs to stand up on his own and make a statement.

Bringing his family into it is not what a man does in this particular case. Allowing your family- especially your mother- to be dragged into it is especially disgusting to me.

When and if the day comes, I will glady fight a battle in the public press against someone who has done wrong by me. But I sure as hell would not allow my mother's upset over my situation to become part of the public story.

That is the difference between being a man and being a loser- and it is the one thing that most prompted me to comment on this thread.
