So some college students had a theme party … so what? Oh wait, it’s a Martin Luther King Jr. Day party where, according to The Smoking Gun, … ” [the party] featured attendees wearing gang apparel and Afro wigs, carrying malt liquor, handguns, and fried chicken, and even one woman dressed as Aunt Jemima”. The Duke “Not So Rape” Case has shown us that these students at Tarleton State University should put on their slickers because they are in for a shit storm.
At the end of the day, what’s the big deal? I think the biggest problem with these pictures is that they show a general lack of creativity on the student’s part.
The costumes are downright shitty look at the second picture down. “Oh shit it’s a fat white pasty Rastafarian! Oh no hide the white women.”
I have thrown several successful theme parties in my days and the one thing that always has to be consistent is the quality of the participants’ costumes. It doesn’t matter if you are wearing a toga, or your underwear everyone has to be committed to excellence. Otherwise you look like Fat White Pasty
Rastafarian Guy.
I truly hope that these kids don’t get suspended. They had a private party, snapped some pictures and posted them on Facebook. The only thing they are guilty of is asshattery
(yes, it’s a word). The best thing about this whole thing … it’s on the Internet and it will NEVER go away. Does this set a precedent for college theme parties? Are pimps n’ hoes going to get pissed every time some frat guy shows up with a leopard print suit and matching hat? Will Victoria’s Secret models file complaints when liquored up sorority girls attend a lingerie party?
As our nations colleges and universities start to resemble Port Chester University from the early 90s classic PCU students will have to struggle to find fun ways to get drunk.

I would consider getting offended over this but nobody at my school even knew it was MLK Jr. day. It was simply known as “ice day” because school was cancelled for the first time in 14 years. A more intelligent approach to this theme party would have been for some people to be blatantly racist white southerners, others to be rioting black people with bruises all over them, and then maybe a few famous people like an attempt at Rosa Parks or those first few students escorted into school by the national guard. So while Aunt Jemima and hoodlums may be caricatures they don’t fit in with the MLK Jr. day theme.
These ignorant youths have brought shame upon all of us who reside in the great state of Tarleton.
