Division of the people is the easiest way to conquest.

Abe Lincoln was right all along. That clever bastard.

So now you're trying to downplay their murderous/racist chant?

No, I'm not.
They should be reprimanded for that offensive song. Maybe suspended for a few days/weeks. But not expelled.

The punishment was too heavy relative to the offense.
It's like selling a child into slavery for stealing a loaf of bread.

You're comparing a song that proudly supports racial discrimination and KKK-style murder to stealing a loaf of bread?

Are these students Jean Valjean now?

I've never heard Eminem say "nigga". If he did, it was a RARE occasion.

And stop trying to compare this racist chant to rap songs. It's a strawman.

Actually truth hurts, under some circumstances it's ok to say it, and then only some people are "allowed" to say it.

Fact is people make money off it and it's ok for them.

Should anyone say it?

No absolutely not, but don't let hypocrisy rule.

Should those kids be punished? Yes. Should others profit from it no, but they do.

Hypocrisy.

And please don't say the music and film industry don't effect the minds of others.

If that was the case why are billions spent on advertising? People are stupid and like sheep and swaying the masses is easy.

People should be mad at the system then then other people.

But it comes off like you're saying that just because some black people wallow in their ignorance, that grants racist white people the right to discriminate against and demean the entire race.

Nevertheless, getting expelled for chanting a racist/brutal song is too harsh a punishment, don't you think?

No. It's the perfect punishment.

Why?
Is it right to jeopardize the futures of these students over a ****in' chant??
Were any black persons in the area physically harmed or died when they sang the chant?

Discrimination is discrimination wether you are the same color or not in my book. Does not set a good example when you demean your own kind.

Across the board its wrong.

Those kids were wrong, just like those kids beating up that girl and her brother and calling her a "white *****" is wrong..

Wrong is wrong.

I'm confused.

Were the ones who were singing it expelled or the ones who were in charge of the fraternity?

Also, how long an expulsion? Permanent? A few days?

AFAIK, expulsions are permanent. Suspensions are temporary.

Ho-hum.
It's the "don't judge me 'cause I'm black" circular reasoning again.

Btw, I never said anything of the sort. I've never generalized black people as thugs.
The majority of American blacks (keywords: majority, American) probably are, based on what I've seen from the media and the people I've personally encountered, but there are those who are definitely not.

"I'm not saying black people are a bunch of savages not deserving any respect or being treated like decent human beings. But Black people are a bunch of savages unworthy of respect or being treated like decent human beings.

There are a few good ones, but most should just rot. People were right to lynch them for their blackness" - AsbestosFlaygon, 2015

Agreed, but it comes off like you are saying it was justified because "blacks do it too". Not saying that's your view but that is what your comments implied.

No its setting a bad example, getting a nasty word out of common usage should be up to all people including those who deem it ok to use amongst themselves.

Way to take statements out of context.

I think I get what you are saying here. If blacks want respect they must first learn to respect themselves. I agree, but it still gives SAE no right to chant what they did nor does it absolve them of punishment.

I can't imagine any context that would justify those statements.

Thats not a quote, if your going to quote him saying that provide proof and a link. All you did was type your nonsense and add his name on it from what you have provided so far.

Did you think someone would not catch that?
