According to Duke, frat boys think rape is funny. And based on experience I wouldn't be surprised since every single person I've ever met who was in a frat was a dick. That's my whole point. Frat boys are just asshole rapists.

I Purple heart your generalizations!

Duke is the one who made them, with his claim that the only reason we don't find joking about rape funny is we aren't in frats.

Must be particular to southern frats because I assure you frats here in california do not joke about rape. And I have been around pretty drunk ass frat boys. Perhaps Duke is just trying to justify it.... sexual predator.

We shouldn't ban them unless a frat does an horrible thing (rape, murder and things like that or encouraging these things) and we should only ban that frat, not the others who aren't doing bad things.

My college has no frats and I see it as a good thing.

Personally I dont think Universities should have anything to do with frats. If they want to they can have their own system outside of the school.

Sure, I'd have no problem if the Uni's stopped supporting the frats.  But banning them would be idiotic.

You're just a really big loser.

Truer words have never been spoken.

In all this time I have tried to put it into words I have not done so well.

     I like how Republicans & independents overwhelmingly support them staying open while 40% of Democrats want them banned. Democrats: so permissive that they oppose parties & alcohol. Wink

You think I oppose parties and alcohol? Ha! I just hate frat parties. I never went to them in college, just normal keg parties. I remember one of my female co-workers saying she'd never ever go to a frat party under any circumstances since that's basically just asking to have a roofie put in your drink. Smart girl.

Absolutely - there are fun parties and there are parties made up off horrible people.  Honestly the only thing that would happen to a cool male student at a frat party is he'd get beaten up, and of course we all know what would happen to female visitors.

I wonder if any of you have seen a Swedish film called 'Evil'?

I'm not exaggerating when I'm saying I have never in my life met a single frat boy who wasn't an asshole. Not a single one.

And I've met plenty who weren't - in fact the vast majority I met weren't.

So let me put forth a hypothesis. Perhaps you're an asshole, and you just thought they were because they treated you like you were some sort of asshole.

Notice which authoritarian party has the most "yes" votes?  Freedom loving Dem's must be so proud!

I love your frequent generalizations.

I don't like fraternities and I don't think colleges should subsidize them, but I also don't support banning things that I don't like.

I also have this nasty habit of choosing the (D) options.

I find it funny that Democrats, who are all about freedom, want to ban an organization because they don't like them.

If you don't want to join one, don't. No one is forcing you to go to their parties or anything else. And if you were too socially awkward to join one, then that's your problem. I find it might be the latter in BRTD's case.

Considering a good majority of democrats voted no...your statement is ridiculous.

30% of them voted yes vs. 8% of Republicans, so my statement isn't that ridiculous.

Wow, you're so mature! No wonder you use playground insults.

I love how you are praising:

1-A cheap ad hominem attack.
2-A post that has been DELETED. Clearly for a reason.

No, it's because I didn't see the point in paying people to be my friends and go to parties I could go to by not being in a frat, and furthermore I would never join a group of assholes who think rape is funny, which is what frats are by your own claim.
