Lots of posts that are indifferent about this topic, which I guess is par for the course on the OT. That apology is laughable though. In my experience, the the use of the n-word comes from a racist mindset about 99% of the time, yet this fool is trying to argue otherwise.

Gee thanks for the language lesson.

My point is whoever let this out of the group is a dumbass. I highly doubt there was a black guy included on that private message.

It's cheap news. It can only divide people and piss people off.

You can ignore it all you want, but when someone of another race refers to African-Americans as the n-word, it is racially motivated. Period.

Agree. I'd say it comes from true racism a quarter of the time, utter stupidity 50% of the time, and exasperation/anger 25% of the time.

I don't use that word, but the most vulgar language I do use usually comes in dealing with some a-hole on the interstate or some similar situation. The shite I would say to video games when I was 13 would make me blush now.

guy said something dumb, but he is right

why are the three fraternities with worst grades all historically black fraternal organizations?

also have to consider that this is just a comparative ranking. if the average of each fraternity's GPAs is higher than the University undergraduate mean, then the discussion shifts substantially

Well you just moved the goal post. And I have a friend that is black as night that I can call him the n word. I can assure you it's not racial. I know many other people like that. But keep making up statistics and attaching meaning to people's words when you have no idea.
