And get any of them on tape talking about hanging crackers from a tree and I'd expect the same results.

I bet if you could get a camera into some of the black only frats you could easily find something like that.

With the PC agenda drive media covering it, Same results? Ha, You must be joking.

There are few in this country who despises the victimhood industry more than I do but this is pretty bad.Before we can address your "double standards" suggestion we first must establish that black fraternities have lousy chants about hanging honkies/crackers from a tree.

I'm sure they do and worse. But of course try and get the media to cover it when it does. Not going to happen.

These guys are victims.

You really think so? I don't even use the term "N" in my daily conversations with anyone and I find it the most offensive and disgusting word ever to have been created.

Here, let me post the words of the video that was released then offer an alternative chant that could have been recorded by a muslim fraternity and ask you if you would dismiss them with the same support.

Song to the tune of : “If You Are Happy and You Know It”

There will never be a nigger in SAE

There will never be a nigger in SAE

You can hang them from a tree but he can never sign with me

There will never be a nigger in SAE………

Lets try a new variation and see how you’d be so willing to accept this chant:

There will never be a CHRISTIAN in SAE

There will never be a CHRISTIAN in SAE

You can hang them from a tree but he can never sign with me

There will never be a CHRISTIAN in SAE……..

And for what it's worth, if my own kid was in that video, being expelled would be the last thing he had to worry about.........I'd yank his sorry ass out of that university and tell him to get a job, he's on his own.

I agree. They are being punished more severely than black athletes who commit assault. And frankly, I believe people should have the right to be racist if their racism amounts to no more than words. I didn’t see anything happen to the Black pampers when they were calling for the death of white babies before the Zimmerman trial, so apparently the media agrees with me-as long as the racists aren’t white.

You could find it anytime the Black Panthers get in front of media cameras and call for death to whites. But black racism is just hunky-dory.

Thing is, I see three things at play here:

1. Everyone is racist. The question is only a matter of degree.
2. The environment in which we currently live, where we are seeing hundreds (if not thousands) of videos of “blacks acting poorly”, there is actually an increase in the amount of racism in pretty much everyone. That is, if, on a racist (against black) scale of 1 to 100, you used to be a 12, you are probably now an 18, or even a 50.
3. This kinda speaks to number 1. When a person is angry with another person, they may say things that they know will hurt the other person. It means they will “hit them where they are week. A person in a wheelchair you might call a gimp. Your wife who you love dearly you might call a bitch. And if she is black, you might call her a “n****r”. It doesn’t mean you are “racist”. It means you are a flawed human being lashing out at another human being in a way that you think will hurt them.

Totally agree. The media is just deflecting from the actual rates of black-on-white crime, especially the high assault and rape rates, by making the utterance of certain words a bigger crime than actual bodily harm. It’s sickening.

How are they victims?

They joined a private organization at OU and the national chapter of their national organization revoked their membership.

Look back on all the mean and/or hurful things you ever did as a teenager or even in your early 20’s and imagine there was someone standing there with a hidden camera and microphone and they distributed it to the world.

Were you an evil son of a B**** deserving every thing done and said about you for the rest of your entire life for that act, or were you a victim of a sort of “Big brother” attack by a hyper-sensitive all-seeing culture?

I think the latter.

These folks are victims. And it is a new kind of victim.

They are not the first and they will not be the last.

Human beings do stupid and sometimes mean things all the time. The only one that didn’t was hung on a cross. This micro-scrutiny can’t continue. We will be a world of neurotics.

If only they could play football, then all would be forgiven.

Granted, I did not have IPhone cameras in my day, but I did not go around chanting that I wanted to hang black folks from trees.

My gosh, a college kid who said a stupid thing.

It's not like he tried to kill a cop with his own gun...

Me neither, but I didn’t have the black community to deal with that we are dealing with today every day in our news headlines, internet and youtube.

These kids are probably acting out against what they see happening all over the country, and the same culture that “Caught them” is probably the one that provided the fodder that created the angst that led up to their little chant.

i.e. history may record this as just one of the many events that eventually led to CWII.

I hate going there, but there is more “evidence” to support such a prediction now than there has been since the late 1960’s. It’s one of the reasons for my tag line. But only one of many.

Racism is the new blasphemy. It is considered the worst offense one can commit (and can only be committed by non-Hispanic Euro-Americans), even worse than murder. A single incident will end a career, and there is no appeal other than groveling and recanting one's heresy.

What this means is that for whatever reason, liberals seem to believe that Blacks are not human but a race of demigods whose unparalleled suffering cries to heaven for vengeance in a way no other sin does. Every Black American is considered revolutionary and intellectual by white liberals who hate and despise the Blacks' mirror reflections, "rednecks," with contempt that defies all understanding. They certainly don't seem to believe in "equality" with their Blacks angels/rednecks devils worldview.

The really strange thing is that these people have been here longer than anybody except the Indians and the European colonists. They are of Southern, rural, agricultural, and fundamentalist origin (in this country). Yet they are considered by liberals to be the ultimate "other," culturally to the Left of genuine foreigners. The liberal preference of old-family Blacks to Asian and Third World immigrants can be described as nothing but right wing nativism.

As an old Southern Unionist Republican I always looked up to and admired rural Southern Blacks. But they have gone along with everything and found no line they have been unwilling to cross in the turning of American into Sodom and Gomorrah. Just as white Americans have been judged by G-d for their sins, so will Black Americans be judged for turning against G-d A-mighty and joining hands with His enemies and then scolding the rest of us as "racists" because we refuse to to the same.

Self-worship is usually a cover-up for an inferiority complex. If American Blacks didn't have such feelings of inferiority they wouldn't have to treat every single insult as the greatest sin possible to mankind or insist that their narrative is the main theme of human history. I can sympathize, since I've also suffered from a horrible inferiority complex. But there are far worse things than being "inferior."

Being evil, for example, as the Seven Nations of Canaan became until they were beyond all hope of repentance.

“i.e. history may record this as just one of the many events that eventually led to CWII.”

I hate to go out on a limb here, but I doubt that Americans will charge into battle in Civil War II with the battle cry, “Remember the Persecution of the OU Frat Boys!”

No, it’s just one of the cracks. And if you go back a decade or so, you can see that every year, every month, every week, the rate of new cracks is exponentially increasing. If I had to give it a starting point it would be Rodney King and the technology that made him infamous.

Look at this place ... and they shut it down just like that. You know, they're not going to let go of this, at OU or elsewhere. Hold on to your hats.

Being mean spirited in public like that might call for some kind of sanction to rebuke it. But being banned... at the least we ought to be color blind about how we apply that.

If it were about bare facts we would just say que sera, sera.

But we don’t even have a “hands up don’t shoot” video from the Brown case. In a selfie-mad culture that’s real weird.

I know. We are frogs in a pot of water that’s being brought to boil slowly. Just wait until you can’t collect Social Security if you ever committed a “thought crime”-if you’re white.
