Now, that I had that little vent, I would like to encourage those people who
have a problem with GLB, TV or TS pledges/brothers/advisors to disenroll
themselves from this Fraternity as soon as possible. Email me, and I will be
ECSTATIC to fax your disenrollment to the national office.
The sooner we can get the fucking goofs who have a problem with someone who is
different from them out of the Fraternity that I care for so much, it will be a
great day for the Brotherhood and those open-minded pledges/brothers/alums who
remain.

But isn't that being a bit closed minded yourself? Don't you, by telling them
to "Get the f out" become one of them who you condemn? These people are entitled
to their opinions, as are you and I. I welcome them into APO as much as I welcome
anybody else. It is through our disagreements and our struggles that we learn
the most and get the most done.
Now, you may ask how I can be insensative to the GLB, TV or TS members? I don't
feel as such, as I am one of them. As a friend recently said, "I am a peach of
a guy, in more way than one." I just think that, as members of APO, we need to
learn to tolorate each other, whether we agree or disagree with each other.
Now, back off my soapbox.
