Here we go again. A fraternity at Arizona State University was suspended this week after throwing (and I can't believe I'm actually writing this) a particularly offensive Martin Luther King, Jr. Day party, in which participants dressed in basketball jerseys, flashed gang signs and drank from watermelon shaped cups.

Oh gross.
"This isn't appropriate at all and you really have no business dressing like this on a day that's sort of revered for African-Americans," said ASU senior Frank Hogan after seeing some of the pictures. "I think this represents the ignorance that still exists today. This is just one example of the kind of things that occur here," stated Kaajal Koranteng, also a senior.
A spokesman from the local chapter who would only identify himself as Cole would not comment on the party or investigation. Rather, he told CBS 5 News to contact the national organization for TKE. "We are aware of the situation. We have been contacted and we have been in contact with the local chapter and the university," explained Patrick Gleason, the director of Compliance and Housing for the national organization, based out of Indianapolis.
And surprise; this isn't the first time the frat in question had landed in hot water. They were just reinstated in December after being suspended for inappropriate conduct that included a fight. Well, I'm sure this time they'll really turn things around!
This incident is just the latest in a needlessly long, sad line of dumb racist parties thrown byAmerica's finest university students who for some goddamn reason still can't seem to get it in their heads that dressing up in costumes to make fun of other racial groups is a bad idea. Just a really, really bad fukking idea.
No word yet on if there will be further punishment aside from the suspension for this fraternity, or for how long it will take before young people stop doing stupid crap like this.
"They obviously need to be checked on what they're doing, how they're acting and how they're presenting themselves. Not only as a fraternity of brothers, but as people," said Hogan, in what is clearly the winning understatement thus far of 2014.
there are many c00n ass nikkas on theColi who will reassure that "racists are dying out, the new generation gets along with everybody *kumbaya*"
but these people are racist to the core, I'm sure they have Black friends, co-workers, maybe even in relationships with Black people, but at the CORE, they are racist, and when they are amongst each other it just naturally comes to the surface.
call it a sweeping generalization or whatever the fukk you want to, I couldn't give a fukk, the evidence continues to speak for itself.
"racists are dying out"
