When I was an Active, we had a brother who was exactly like this. This would be exactly how he would try and get a point across if he was frustrated by the actives lack of effort. He always got things done though, and it was just widely accepted that when he got a little too excited this is how he would act. It was part of his character, and his character is what added to our chapter. So despite everything, we loved him. Pretty sure this happens in chapters everywhere. Of course it never occurred during chapter meetings, but in informal settings, such as texts, I think it is fine. What isn't fine is that it got leaked. This is how she talked to her SISTERS. Some of the closest people in her life, theoretically. Shouldn't have to be censored when you're with family.

It was intended for her sisters, and not for anyone else. I believe it should be read that way.

Seriously? You would ask your biological sister, cousins... or your mother if they were retarded or threaten to "cunt punt" them?

Any family member who talked like that to me once wouldn't get a chance to do it a second time.

Maybe, it's different when you're in a Fraternity. It seems that for the most part sorority members are the ones that are most appalled by this. But I have definitely heard the phrases, "Are you f*n retarded, don't make me kick you in the balls". And no one has ever thought twice about it because no one takes it as a real threat.

I'm sure I'll have a bunch of fraternity members disagreeing with me now, but my point is, that it happens, and I personally would never be offended if I received a text like this from one of my fraternity brothers.
