This Oklahoma frat


Mar 9, 2015, 7:59 PM

Was it bad and distasteful? Yeah. Is it/was it immature?

But im about sick of this racial tension in America. Why does everything have to look like it's white America coming down on Black America? If you don't think this stuff happens the other way around you are fooling yourself. The media takes this garbage and runs with it.

I don't know..... This stuff gets blown way out of proportion.

I am kind of mixed on this type stuff. What they said was awful. They did not really advocate committing an act of murder or try to incite someone to commit an act of murder. Thus, what they were doing was nothing but exercising free speech. Free speech is protected in this nation. If speech were popular, it would need no Constitutional protection. People have a right to free speech whether or not I approve of what they say.

Free speech


Mar 10, 2015, 9:54 AM

Does not equal freedom to say what you want without consequences. It means the government can't quell it by force. It doesn't mean you can't be mocked, shamed, ridiculed, and told you can no longer represent a group who now wants no part of you.

But it just defies logic what gets America all up in a tizzy these days. Kill all the babies you want to and nobody bats an eye.

But sing about hanging somebody from a tree with no actual intention to do so, and the country takes to the streets in hysteria.

Sorry for quoting you out of context. That seems to be the strategy of this discussion.

This was a closed group of drunken kids acting stupid. No more, no less. To use this of an example of anything else than that is just wrong.

We are obviously in the minority (I didn't even mean to make a joke)by not being absolutely appalled by the ridiculous carrying-on of some kids in Oklahoma. I wish that we could drop all of the emotion and have people stop competing for most offended and just talk about stuff like this. The kids will learn by this. If they truly dislike a race separate from theirs this much, they will suffer at some level for the rest of their lives, but I was not placed on earth to judge others. That job has already been filled. By the way, according to OU's website, their enrollment by sex is 50/50. 63% claim to be white and 5% claim to be black only. By my math, that means about 2.5% black males. SAE could have most likely stayed all white male without the song. For the non-math majors here, that is about 12 white boys for every black male. I'm guessing that a brother don't really want to be on that bus anyway. That was a "Hey y'all watch this moment".

If some kid didn't record it, we would never have heard about it anyhow. It's a common SAE chant apparently, I saw someone else post somewhere that a room mate of their who was in a chapter knew the song too. Is it wrong? Sure, but so are a million other things in the world that people don't get all angry about. I'm pretty laid back about things, and if someone wants to be racist that's their prerogative, I judge people on their character and not their skin color personally, but me ranting about it online won't help how some people view things.

If only the media and a select few people would just let it be we could get past all of this going on in America at the moment, mainly since the ferguson fiasco.

The way things like this are treated nowadays is not going to help us get past it either.

this might surprise you, but I agree completely. PDs treating poor, mostly black, people like they do in Ferguson is widespread and absolutely wrong for all of the reasons that you have stated. This is what America should be enraged about. I recently watched a Netflix film about the legalization of marijuana and whether you agree or not, the statistics on how the PDs use this "drug war" against Americans is outrageous. The disproportionate treatment of young black males on pot busts are insane. The war on drugs has become the war on Americans.

Right. It's the media blowing racist chants about lynching "out of proportion". Because, after all, it's 2015 and it's perfectly normal for college kids in this day in age to be chanting awful racist things.

Wait...your complaint about racial tension refers to the public complaining about the racist song? The song isn't the problem here?

As long as it does not do me any direct bodily harm, I do not care what people say about me. I would not lose one second of sleep over some frat boy prep jack ##### not wanting me in their little drunk club. If they tried to lynch me, then there would be a problem. Them simply vocally expressing the fact they hate me, thats not a problem.
