Here's the link to the article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061031/...alloween_party

Basically, a frat was suspended for hosting a halloween party where the guests were asked to wear "regional clothing from our locale" with jewelry including "bling bling ice ice, grills" and "hoochie hoops." The Black Student Union took offense, and then the shit hit the fan.

Man, I just think this is so stupid, on many levels. The frat was trying to make fun of some of the absurd things you'll see celebrities wear, not of any particular race of people. I almost feel sorry for the black community, if they see things like grills and other stupid clothes and instantly associate it with their whole race.

And then they complain about a pirate skeleton on a noose they had, and claim that it was a racial thing. A skeleton. On a noose. With a pirate hat. At halloween time.

Can't we all just laugh about how stupid grillz are? Seriously.
