This group of young men are the same age as those in Iraq, Afghanistan, Vietnam, WWII and WWI.

The disparity in maturity is stark.

They must have violated double-secret-probation.

If it’s anything like the Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter from my college back in the day, I can’t say I’m really surprised. The “Sig Apes” (as those not in that house referred to them) were known for some pretty heavy testosterone-fueled “adventures”.

Not quite on the level of Delta Tau Chi, but close. If memory serves, I recall reading that the chapter at my college was either closed or placed under double secret probation not too long ago.

Some other parents of freshman high school girls and I were discussing last night the issue of the degrading influence hip hop culture has had on respect for females. At one of the most sought after schools in the city, the boys call the girls “b88ches” directly and one young lady was called “a f888ing who88” in front of a bunch of other students, The boys believe this language is cool.

The music these young people listen to has evil lyrics, the overpowering and abuse of others described in the music is disgusting and wrong.

The pendulum needs to swing the other way,

The main activities of my fraternity in the late 60s were parties with young women, and underage drinking, so nothing is new.

We were a chapter of a big, old national fraternity. For years during the 70s my chapter was kicked off campus, suspended, made inactive, etc. It was the party house, among party houses.

But today it cleaned up. This link shows the brothers participating with the campus young ladies, in a hot dog eating contest, to raise money for charity.

Another article on the site shows that two chapters were closed.

Finally, my fraternity turned out veterans, at least one Fortune 500 CEO, two Superior Court judges, etc.

The amazing thing was the huge number of beautiful young women who turned out when we announced a party. During the summer 1967 known as "Thursday Night Party" when we sold silk-screen T-shirts, to pay for 7 kegs of beer.

Then a few brothers went to Vietnam and got killed.

Interesting discussion. How far should freedom of speech" go? Are NAMBLA instruction manuals - "how to" guides to groom boys for turning them into victims covered by the First Amendment? And another point is - this fraternity is a private organizations. They have the freedom to disallow obscenity and the advocation of rape even if the government is curtailed by a stupid ruling (or maybe more than one in this regard) by the SCOTUS years ago.
