This is akin to one of the fraternities on our campus throwing a "Fro's and 40's" party, and another throwing a "Ghetto Booty" party...NSBE (National Society of Black Engineers) complained about both of them...

I wanna see pics from the Ghetto Booty party. Damn that must have rocked.

"Everything that I am - my family, customs, culture and language - was violated," said Sandra Sanchez, who helped organize the demonstration Monday at Duke Chapel. "The stereotypes of drunk Mexicans and border crossing was hurtful."

Oh please.

Thats hilarious stuff they did.

If a Jewish frat president had a frat party making fun of the Holocaust, would you consider THAT ok?

I'm not saying it's OK one way or the other, but just b/c the president is Latino has no bearing on what happened.

Crossing the border illegally and the Holocaust are two VERY different things. That's like comparing apples to cats.

But perpetuating racial stereotypes is the same, no matter who's the butt of the jokes.

I had to comment on this one...

It's only a stereotype if it isn't true... The "drunk Mexican" pics were uncool, I totally agree. But I doubt there are too many whites hopping the fence at Border Park.

(Except for me... I'm the dumbass that got arrested by the TJ police for sitting on the fence and getting my pic taken. LoL)

Agreed but they shouldn't have done it, just asking for trouble....

True but it's not as black and white as you try to make it sound like. Comparing an event where millions were brutally murdered with another long going event where people are illegally crossing the border is just stupid.

How about a Vietnamese party in which you get to bring your own puppy to stick on the grill?

or an beloved patriot party where everybody gets drunk and plays bingo?

It was extremely tasteless imho

Would you have preferred that I used a slavery reference? Puhlease, it's tasteless either way no matter who the president was. PERIOD!

Yes, big fricken deal.

 

[AgentBehemoth]

Sounds like just another "look someones having fun let me show my ass" kinda attention getting crowd. If people are having fun there will always be someone to try and stop it. Bet it up.

But hey I did get a new sig out of it from dabuddha.

Heh...since when was tastelessness a crime?

 

[Leetman]

Who cares, they can make fun of whoever they want, its a frat not a political party or a major corporation.

 

[Leetman]

And people who can't take racist jokes need to loosen up. If you can't handle it, avoid those situations or learn to grow up.

badass theme by the way

I think it would be pretty damn funny irl to see.

 

[Chaotic42]

I like offensive humor. Even when it's directed at white boys. The reactions of people to the humor is usually even funnier.

Hell, they actually put a lot of effort into this. I'm impressed. Would people be so offended if the invitation was a fake CIA ID, the Mock border patrol was Checkpoint Charlie in between West and East Berlin, and the green card was a fake Russian passport?

Fvck fraternities.
