It is Greeks like yourself that suggest petty and ignorant things like confronting another organization over a hand-sign like you are a gang or something, that turn around and complain about a lack of respect from non-greeks when you don't even have respect for other Greeks. That is just how I see it.
Whoa. You are rather out of line. What sigmadiva suggested had none of the undertones that you imply (confronting the org like a gang?) I mean, did I miss something? Because to me, it looked like sigmadiva said:

maybe they should speak up and say 'Hey, your hand-sign is similar to ours, did you know that?'
I don't see how you derived confronting them like a 'gang' from that. Also, you have a pretty nasty attitude. It is one thing to express your beliefs, and another to be downright rude about it.

As a non-greek myself, I didn't see anything inappropriate about sigmadiva's suggestion or her concern. It's not like she was advocating a picket line or something. I also think it was a little underhanded to call someone (or their beliefs) petty and ignorant just because you don't agree with them.
