Today I had the pleasure of hearing Brothers visiting from the US urging this type of stupid behaviour (while using terms like sand n*gger, rag head, or hijabis)... I was more than happy to toss them off the property and tell them to never darken our chapter's doorstep again! But what galled me the most is that these were guys visiting before shipping out...

PS> No I won't mention what chapter they were from, nor region, but there has been a discussion with their chapter's executive explaining why they were turfed.....
This week is Vietnam in my film class about Oliver Stone. Gives a slight echo to Platoon with the various names called, and the subsequent turn of Charlie Sheen saying "they are human f-ing beings" while in the village. Huge discussion about demoralizing the "enemy" for the purpose of war, and the noncombantants being put in the same "slur category".

Cosign to PM Mama, there is one person on the list that looks familiar to me, and those names could be students at my University (where a grad student was already arrested last year, and is currently on trial). There has been a Saudi Student Assoc. for decades, I saw one in the 1954 year book.

4 million, that is the total population of Alaska or San Francisco five fold. If you break it down like that, it is staggering.
