This is not an isolated incident at the OU SAE chapter.

I knew they didn't allow black kids or books in the library at Bama.

I had not heard about the Greek thing though. I know a sorority there made the news last year for something like that. Whatever came of that incident?

Surprised that there are that many who stayed after whites firebombed and killed hundreds in a single day in 1921:

Are you a serious?

They are singing about hanging N**gers from a tree.

They won't go to jail for it, but the national SAE has every right to disband them. They are a private organization.

University of Oklahoma is a little different, but you are talking about free speech?

What you wanna bet Al is packing his shite now heading to OU. OU will be writing him a check and saying this is not how OU operates.

A) "we" aren't doing anything

B) they represent the University of Oklahoma. I'm sure that's not the image they want floating around of the University.

C) speech like that has no place in society. Today, tomorrow, last week, last year, or last century.

Why is that the first thing you think of? Who cares what Al Sharpton does? He didn't make these kids do this. They did it on their own volition.

That's a slippery slope. Let the world judge their behavior but I'm not for firing or banning people for speech.

It's just a little good-natured ribbing.

Private organization (SAE) can do whatever they want in response to this.

As for OU, if they broke any agreed upon contracts, there are repercussions.

Scruffy isn't a fan of internet warriors and the overblown responses to these stupid incidents, but it isn't a trampling of free speech.

Then why you making a big deal about this? Bunch of college kids on a bus. What do you think Al is gonna do? Same thing he did in the duke rape case. Say there is discrimination still in America NO shite. If you don't think their is just as much racism going on at Grambling, Southern, etc. That is your ignorance. Sorry I don't condone racism but my pockets are not getting filled like Al and Jesse's are. Oh can't wait to hear the news tomorrow with Al front and center.

Miami's greek system was much more low key than these big state schools, but SAE had a really good chapter and a black president.

Props to President Boren for banning them within hours of the video being leaked

They are welcome to say it. Just have to deal with the consequences.
