I KNOW THIS TOPIC IS GOING TO CAUSE A BIG REACTION BUT I DONT CARE.....I WAS READING SOME OF THE OTHER TOPICS AND SUCH, LISTENING TO EVERYONE. I READ THE POST BY THAT GUY KAPPANUP AND HOW EVERYONE JUMPED ON HIM.....
I PERSONALLY DONT UNDERSTAND WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT BEING GREEK....I KNOW AT HOWARD BEING GREEK IS SLOWLY NOT ABOUT ISH....MATTER FACT NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE I KNOW AND I KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO BE ASSOCIATED BECAUSE GREEKS ARE LOOKED AT AS LAME... I MEAN MAYBE SOMEONE CAN GIVE ME LIGHT ON THIS I AM JUST WANTING TO KNOW WHAT THE FASCINATION IS ABOUT....I MEAN WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT TO JOIN AN ORGANIZATION THAT BEATS THEM AND TREATS THEM LIKE ISH BEFORE THEY GET IN AND THEN WHEN THEY GET IN THEY ARE FAKE.....LIKE THIS ONE DUDE WHO PLEDGED QUE AT OUR SCHOOL COULDNT STAND LIKE 6 QUES THAT WERE ON THE LINE BEFORE AND HE STILL PLEDGED...NOW THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE BROS BUT YOU CANT TRUST EM AS FAR AS YOU CAN THROW EM. ALSO THE WHOLE GREEK THING IS KINDA WHITE-WASH IF YOU ASK ME.....BLACK PEOPLE ARE BEATING EACH OTHER AND EVERYTHING ELSE TO WEAR SOME WHITE MANS LETTERS ON THEY CHEST....I JUST DONT GET IT.....PAY ME 1000 DOLLARS AND I'LL BEAT YOU TOO AND I'LL GET YOU SOME LETTERS THAT GLOW IN THE DARK.... :lol: .....I MEAN PEOPLE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME BECAUSE YALL LOOK LIKE FOOLS TO ME AND ALOT OF OTHER PEEPS.....SQUEALING LIKE PIGS, BARKING, RUNNING AROUND LIKE MONKEYS, AND EVERY OTHER ANIMAL IN THE BOOK.....MY GRANDMOTHER IS AN AKA AND SHE SOUNDS SO FOOLISH WHEN SHE TALKS ABOUT HER PLEDGING DAYS ( JUST MORE BLACKS TRYING TO FIT IN)....I READ THE HISTORY ON THESE FRATS AND SORORITIES AND IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WERE STARTED BECAUSE THEY COULDNT BE IN THE WHITE FOLKS STUFF SO THEY MADE THEY OWN AND SEGREGATED THEY OWN PEOPLE ( THATS ISHED UP)
ALSO I FORGOT ONE THING.....
THIS SEEMS LIKE THIS FITS PERFECTLY
THE WILLIE LYNCH LETTER ( YOU KNOW SEPERATE THE PEOPLE BY COLOR , REGION, STATUS AND NOW FRAT) WE ARE FALLING RIGHT INTO A DEEPER SENSE OF MENTAL SLAVERY
ALSO LAST STORY THEN I WANT TO HEAR THE ATTACKS FROM YALL (CUZ THATS ALL THEY ARE GOING TO BE ...IT SEEMS PEOPLE CANT EXPRESS THEMSELVES WITHOUT GETTING HOSTILE...LIKE THAT GUY KAPPANUP ( HE ACTUALLY MADE GOOD POINTS IF YALL LISTENED TO HIM AND HE MIGHT MAKE A GOOD MAN AFTER ALL IF HE GETS RID OF SOME OF THAT CONFUSION)
BUT SERIOUSLY....ONE OF MY FEMALES FRIENDS WAS WALKING ON CAMPUS AND SHE HAD A PINK AND GREEN OUTFIT ON WITH A PINK AND GREEN UMBRELLA....I MEAN SHE LOOKED NICE BUT ALL SHE HEARD WAS YOU CANT WEAR THOSE COLORS...AND LOW AND BEHOLD A AKA SAID SOMETHING TO HER ( THERE IS ONLY A HANDFUL LEFT ON CAMPUS)....WELL BEING THE MILITANT SHE IS .....SHE CUSSED THE GIRL OUT AND TOLD HER SHE WOULD ROCK PINK AND GREEN EVERYDAY IF SHE WANTED AND IF SHE CAME BACK IN HER FACE SHE WOULD SHOW HER A REAL AKA BUT MORE A AK-47...HAHAHAHA :lol: ....I GUESS THEY WONT TRY HER AGAIN.....
Imma put $19.19 worth later. But I feel what your saying.
Sup cuz, I only got $18.98 right now... let me borrow 19 cent... i'll throw in the other $.02 after some BGLO's get on this... its really directed at them more than us (for now).
*steps back, watches, bumps the **** Prez Album on his computer and thinks to himself... "hmmm i've had this argument before instead it was on his side... what can i say to shed some light on this situation from my new perspective... i'll just wait and see after some BGLO's respond"*

I got loose change,hun....Here ya go :arrow:
Now, I would shed some light on this but whats the point.He/she is going off what they see and has not done the necessary research to find out what we are really about.We are more than what the eyes can see and ears can hear...

I agree with you on that provAKAtive.... :roll: unless you're greek you can't possibly understand....he's on the outside looking in...no need in arguing with him...he's got his mind made up :roll: ....I'll just say it's for some and for some it's not...
Haven't we had a million of these topics before.... :evil:
Ayo heat, why the attitude partnah?
You came on the scene looking for trouble with statements like "I CANT WAIT FOR THE ATTACKS FROM YALL (CUZ THATS ALL THEY ARE GOING TO BE..." I mean we as Greeks are not really left with many choices when GDI's such as yourself come at as in that way. Granted you have your views about Greek life and I have mine. I respect your opinions and your choice to not be Greek, but remember respect is never one-sided. If you approach a person with disrespect you will get disrespect in return, and with some of the comments that you made I feel that you have in fact done that, especially with comments such as "BLACK PEOPLE ARE BEATING EACH OTHER AND EVERYTHING ELSE TO WEAR SOME WHITE MANS LETTERS ON THEY CHEST." Last time I checked my founders were Black, and never had the intention on being white. :lol: Now I'm not asking you to bow down to me or any other Greeks here but if you want to gain information on something remember that you catch more flies with honey that you do with vinegar.

HMMMM SURPRISING .....
I SEE THE TOPIC IS ACTUALLY QUIET
MAYBE I HAVE PRESSED SOME BUTTONS.....
I GUESS THERE REALLY IS NO RESPONSE TO THIS
I AM NOT ATTACKING GREEKS BUT I AM JUST TRYING TO GET AN UNDERSTANDING WHY THEY CHOOSE TO BE APART OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS....
ITS NOT BECAUSE OF COMMUNITY SERVICE BECAUSE YOU HAVE THAT WITH HABITAT FOR HUMANITY
ITS NOT BROTHERHOOD OR SISTERHOOD BECAUSE YOU CAN HAVE THAT WITH TRUE FRIENDS
ITS NOT NETWORKING BECAUSE MAJORITY OF COMPANY LEADERS ARE WHITE AND THE BLACK PEOPLE IN HIGH POSITIONS MOSTLY WENT TO WHITE SCHOOLS AND PLEDGED HONOR FRATERNITIES
I HAVE LIKE I SAID DONE MY RESEARCH.....I AM TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING THAT AS WELL LIKE IF I READ THE SAME INFORMATION 3 TIMES OVER ITS GOING TO CHANGE.....IF IT WAS SH*T BEFORE THE DOG ATE IT..ITS SH*T AFTER THE DOG ATE IT.....

I FEEL EVERYTHING YOUR SAYING AND I HOPE NO ONE CATCHES OFFENSE TO THIS LIKE I SAID BEFORE. I AM SPEAKING IN WHAT YOU WOULD CALL A PROVOCATIVE LANGUAGE ( ITS JUST LANGUAGE THAT STIRS EMOTIONS BUT NOT HOSTILITY). I AM EXPRESSING MY VIEWS AND I AM WANTING TO HEAR THE VIEWS OF SOME OTHER PEOPLE (GREEKS) ON THE SUBJECT....YOU DONT HAVE TO ANSWER TO ANYONE ON WHY YOU CHOSE TO DO IT BUT I AM ASKING YOU TO ENLIGHTEN US WHO MAY BE IGNORANT TO GREEK LIFE. THE COMMENT ABOUT GETTING BEAT TO WEAR A WHITE MANS LETTER IS JUST WHAT IT IS......EVEN IF YOU DONT WANT TO CALL IT BEATING IN A ABUSIVE WAY YOU CAN STILL CALL IT BEATING IN A MENTAL WAY....AND IT IS A WHITES MAN LETTERS BECAUSE I CANT RECALL ANYWHERE IN HISTORY GREEKS BEING BLACK (*HINT- GREEK LETTER ORGANIZATIONS)..
AT HOWARD THIS PAST YEAR THEY STARTED AN EGYPTIAN FRATERNITY USING AFRICAN LETTERS IN PLACE OF GREEK LETTERS BUT THE LETTERS ARE NOT WHAT MAKES THE ORGANIZATION WHAT IT IS ITS THE MINDSET....SO YOU CAN HAVE EVERY AFRICAN SYMBOL IN THE WORLD ON YOU BUT IF YOU ARE STILL CONFORMING TO THE EUROPEAN PARALLEL THEN YOU ARE FIGHTING FIRE WITH COAL.
