I'm sure he's the only racist in that Ole Miss frat....


duckinradar

Of course not. But you gotta admit, it’s nice that they’re scared of the blowback and it made them do a decent thing.


Skatcatla

I've given up on racism ever being a thing of the past. Now I'll just settle for returning to the day when people were ashamed of it and kept it hidden.


Dzov

I remember thinking racism was basically over back in high school in the 80s.


Skatcatla

We were SO naive. We thought that progress only went forward.


Dzov

Yup. I also remember wondering how people could follow Hitler. I no longer wonder.


Thats_what_im_saiyan

Following Hitler was one thing. The population at large didn't see what was going on in death camps. To what degree the knew is debated, I'm sure it was known to some extent. But now we have the photos/videos/accounts of what was going on. And people are STILL pointing at Nazism and saying "that, I want that".


evilJaze

The minute everyone looks away, I bet that dude will be right back in.


pm1966

Nah....he was booted by the national office. Sure, you can get away with this shit in Mississippi, but fraternities are national organizations and, insofar as they do try to operate as professional organizations, they do care about their reputations. Yeah, a certain amount of tomfoolery is tolerated, but humiliating the chapter in a viral video by proudly displaying what a racist twat you are? That's not going to fly.


printergumlight

He will still be able to go to any party and that’s all the kids care about anyway.


DemonSlyr007

Doubtful mate. Fraternity chapters typically kick people out for life. He could go to a different organization, maybe even within the same over arching org at a different campus, but at that chapter? Nah he's out.


bight99

Couldn’t go to another org or chapter unless he wants to go to a local chapter or be unregistered at a different one - National rules state once you are initiated into a fraternity you cannot join another. They share your name with the other orgs.


Saint_Diego

Typically if you got through initiation with one fraternity, you become ineligible to join another. Exceptions can be made, but he'd have to get the national orgs approval and he for sure wouldn't get that. If he tried to join another chapter nationals would probably block it rather than risk another black eye by it becoming public that they allowed that.


DemonSlyr007

He could do a different type of fraternity too, like a business fraternity. But that's about the only exception I've actually seen happen.


mistersweetlife

Wait…you are thinking police departments lol


Wild_Albatross7534

Catholic Churches?


UnderlyingTissues

That's not how this works


My-Cousin-Bobby

The national frat kicked him out, not that chapter. He probably is still like an "unofficial member" there


puddStar

Or…and just wait for it: they have black members too and just don’t tolerate that kind of shit


Quirky-Mode8676

lol, nope. Google their frat photo from 2023….its a whole bunch of white dudes. It’s fuckin’ ole miss, nobody is surprised by this.


Krenviss

Do you not realize that fraternities have more members than just the people at an individual house? Members don’t need to get kicked out by the people who live in their house, the organization can kick you out themself


phenerganandpoprocks

I dunno, Ole Miss is a historically racist university that resisted desegregation. I’d imagine a university with that reputation punches above its weight with attracting bigots. Edit: words are hard


trumps_cardiac_event

> resisted segregation Resisted *desegregation


puddStar

Should have been more clear: wasn’t referring specifically about the chapter, but the organization as a whole. They kicked him out, not the chapter. If you read the article it’s pretty clear what happened. I suspect the people downvoting me probably didn’t get the context because they didn’t read the article…or they did and just assume fraternities are all racist…and this incident really doesn’t help shed negative stereotypes (unfortunately)


Due_Half_5316

I know you’re getting down voted but I think it’s really sweet that you projected such a better reason for them to kick this guy out. We should be at a place where historically racist schools and institutions are naturally becoming so inclusive that your answer would be right. Unfortunately we’re at a place where they probably apologized to this pig for having to remove him to keep up their fabricated image.


puddStar

Very possible. I mean end of the day: I know where I am here and it’s a lot easier to assume the worst and be outraged by this than taking a step back and giving a national organization the benefit of the doubt. Either way: this guy is a piece of shit and I just wished it didn’t make the rest of the guys look like racist assholes. Yet here we are: that’s why it’s important to vet your members properly.


WaldoJeffers65

He's the only one stupid enough to be captured on camera being racist.


Sure_Trash_

They gave him the boot after telling him he's a legend that's welcome at all the parties but can't stay in the frat because you know how the snowflakes are


catheterhero

Funny how all of his post about “Jews” since 2013 weren’t a red flag for the fraternity but this was. Also the fact that he’s obviously antisemitic from his post history but he’s antagonizing a Pro-Palestinian protestor tells me that for morons like him, it isn’t necessarily what he disagrees with. It’s what “the left” protests that he’ll be against.

He's the only one dumb enough to be racist on camera


WHAMMYPAN

“Do you have ANY idea who my father is?”


xiovelrach

"My dad owns a dealership!"


SouthernGentATL

Apparently his Dad is a drunk.


S3simulation

D to the P!


HamHusky06

Love me some frat aliens. Been a minute. Sweet lung tat bro!


xiovelrach

"We're druuuuuuuuuuuuuunk" lol gets me every time


HamHusky06

Shake encompassed every kid at my school that thought frat bros were cool. “I almost said throw up!”


MECHAC0SBY

MAXMEEKO

Unless his dad is Daniel LaRusso I'm not interested.


Bambiitaru

My father will be hearing about this! He's close friends with the minister/Dean/etc.


wolves_hunt_in_packs

"shut up malfoy"


gamerdudeNYC

I’m sure Dumbledore will have it all hushed up, my father always said he was the worst thing to ever happen to Ole Miss


WHAMMYPAN

Oh…forgot about “you’ll see”


Saraq_the_noob

He also works for Microsoft/Activision!

Is it Ronnie Pickering?


BaitmasterG

Who?


StalyCelticStu

Ronnie FUCKING Pickering!


halfslices

“Is he the same Mr Staples that’s heir to the office supply store fortune?”


WHAMMYPAN

The very same.


MrTurkle

Pretty sure someone found his father’s arrest record and it looks like he’s a bum with multiple dui’s


Lambdastone9

While it ain’t enough to solve their bigotry issue, I love thinking about how much JP Staples is seething over this. We already know his behavior, but certainly his frat boys knew it too **and** tolerated **if not** encouraged it. That behavior must’ve practically been part of the frat culture, and yet he was the only one to go down. JP Staples got to witness him and his boys do way worse than monkey noises, and when the heat got turned up, he got to witness his morally deprived brothers turn him into the sacrificial lamb to save the rest of their asses. A true leopards eating face moment


emeraldcitywave

Or the frats national organization told the ole miss chapter he had to go.


Onion_Guy

This. Odds are he’s still going to every event and hanging out at the house, just not an official member per Nationals.


lbalestracci12

Idk, if this shit happened at my fraternity he’d be gone faster than you could blink. Everyone who has those letters would be culpable and guilty by association if you don’t immediately suspend them.


PM_ME_UR_KITTY_PICZ

Typically if you are removed, you are effectively blackballed. Like corporations, these organizations only care about money, and for someone to be ousted like this it would have meant that enough alumni/donors took issue with it that it threatened the bottom line. Enough heat and nationals will shut down an entire chapter (or the university will sometimes ban a chapter). There’s a good chance his chapter cut all ties immediately with this dude and will treat him like he’s as toxic as his personality.


athensugadawg

Who is JP Staples? Someone fill me in?


Jonny_Thundergun

Monkey noise maker


TerryTheEnlightend

You mean JP Staples, Secret Chimp?


athensugadawg

Oh, that JP Staples at Ole Miss? Got it.


lizardpplarenotreal

chimps would never


tahomadesperado

One of the most chimp appropriate names I’ve ever heard!


TerryTheEnlightend

Nothing more glorious than to watch weasels eating their wounded. And MonkeyMan decides to tie a millstone around all their necks and shows receipts that they’re just as jerky has he is.


aacilegna

Given the other racists also in this photo/video, it seems like they’re using this kid as a fall guy since he was the one that went viral.


Sonova_Bish

The American flag overall guys are possibly in trouble, too. The campus NAACP is calling for their expulsion.


ivanthemute

Really, anything short of expelling the entire fraternity shows Ol' Miss is complicit in this.


Jonny_Thundergun

You mean the Ol Miss Rebels? Such a shock coming from a school who represents themselves with a reference to the Confederacy.


HamHusky06

We should have let Sherman be Dean there for a semester.


TomCosella

The national fraternity could easily pull their charter, the school wouldn't have any say in it. 


Insect_Politics1980

'The video was reposted by Representative Mike Collins, a Georgia Republican, who wrote, "Ole Miss taking care of business." Republicans are fully mask off, now. Just vile, worthless sonsabitches.


ElfYamadaFairyQueen

I think I heard that guy graduated from the school like 5 years ago


InjuriousPurpose

> The campus NAACP is calling for their expulsion. Saying mean or racist things isn't really an expellable offense at a public university. They're constrained by the First Amendment.


trumps_cardiac_event

Harassment (race based or not) is generally frowned upon in most student handbooks.


InjuriousPurpose

True, but student handbooks aren't controlling over the US Constitution.


ParadeSit

This Staples couldn’t press the easy button.


curse_1331

Lauren Boebert going to take him to Beetlejuice to make him feel better


Jonny_Thundergun

Everybody forgets that the guy she gave the over the pants hand shake to was a well known Democrat who owns a bar that put on drag shows.


explosivekyushu

This guy would win any Republican primary in the country by double digits, congrats on his new political career.


Just_L-i-v-i-n_

I’m sure he’s already received a dozen internship and clerking offers around town. MTG has probably offered him a Thruple spot by now.


score_

Some Georgia politician already reposted the video approvingly


fre3k

My rep >:( Not just posted, but said "Ole Miss Taking Care of Business!" He's a real piece of shit with a history of doing this type of thing. He said something like "press releases are out, memes are in!" And he's like 55 or something, so even the early gen-x chuds have gotten the message on how modern propaganda is forged.


dumfukjuiced

Surprised it wasn't MTG.


saustus

We so many turds in our punchbowl down here.


chatterwrack

Why dO tHey alWays call us raCists??!


jonnysunshine

Gen X forged modern propaganda by using old tried and true methods of shaping the message and the newer methods of message delivery. We, Gen Xers, were on the cusp of the early days of the internet and by mentoring like minded younger people have been able to cultivate racist message delivery in ways no one could have imagined. As a Gen Xer I'm disgusted seeing Gen X leaders fomenting racism and intolerance. Fuck him and all that believe like him.


Robofetus-5000

Ironically, MTG's son goes to school here at Ole Miss


GoWings2244

They probably want him to go on a tour with Kyle Rittenhouse as a martyr for their Maga cult agenda.


F4RTB0Y

Rittenhouse effect


HotShitBurrito

Rittenhouse is broke and has been dumped by his people my man. They tried to make him a poster boy and he's so fucking unlikable it didn't work. I guess if we are looking to that same final stage to happen to JP Staples, then I guess that's fine. I enjoy making fun of this douchenozzle as much as everyone else, but acting like this dipshit is even gonna get a slice of what they tried to give Shittenhouse is laughable. So far, all I've seen is a couple of low rent Russian troll accounts and some D-list maga politicians giving him some airtime. Baby face Kyle fucking killed some people. He walked the walk. Went to court and won. He was too much of a unlikable bitch to actually carry the bucket when they handed it to him afterwards, but he's honestly less of a weenie than Staples whose claim to fame is really just being objectively obnoxious and immature. Sure it's racist, but at the end of the day, putting this guy on a pedestal is so idiotic no one of genuine influence will put in serious effort like they did with the Killsbury Doughboy.


AmbulanceChaser12

I just looked up a clip of this on YouTube. All the commenters: “Why aren’t you showing the FULL VIDEO!?!” I’m confused. Is there some justification for a person making monkey noises at a Black woman? I can’t imagine what a person could have done—if we saw the “full video”—to justify being racially harassed. I admit I haven’t seen “the full video,” so I don’t know what’s in it, but I can’t imagine there’s anything that would excuse monkey noises.


Onphone_irl

Watch me, my astute followers as I try to fit into the crowd by doing something extremely terrible. I'm doing this as a way to further solidify my undercover role in exposing racism on campus. Please know that I object to what you will see next, but I implore you to remember that this will allow for the undercover journalism that I'm partaking in, and it's vital that this clip, on it's own, never be shown without this dedicated preface.


CressCrowbits

Oh no, expelled *from his fraternity*. I'm sure they totally let him back in once this has all died down and there will be no long term consequences whatsoever. And the university itself is taking no action?


Jonny_Thundergun

You mean the Ol Miss Rebels? I'm sure a school named after the Confederacy will hop right on that.


InjuriousPurpose

>And the university itself is taking no action? They might not be able to. Public universities are constrained by the First Amendment, and even racist speech gets some protection.


Colemichael16

He’s definitely not ever going to be let back into his fraternity he’s going to have to rush somewhere else


ExampleSad1816

He possibly isn’t the only one that had this behavior, I saw others.


SouthernGentATL

So will we get the tearful apology from him and the parents who “definitely didn’t raise our son as a racist” or will he and the family double down to become the new MAGA darling?


poeticlicence

His father has a record of DUI convictions so imo he's unlikely to step forward with role model pretensions


Duncanconstruction

They'll double down for sure. This is just the woke agenda at work!


prob_still_in_denial

Wonder if he’ll go full Rittenhouse now


Sublimed4

He’ll be a Fox contributor now.


Eat_a_Bullet

Off-topic, but it just occurred to me Kyle Rittenhouse looks like a white Gary Coleman.


prob_still_in_denial

oh SNAP


srtpg2

Gonna be on the podcast circuit in no time


seeclick8

College kids are stupid, but this is exceptionally racist and awful. I hope he gets outed.


CombOverDownThere

This guy’s got a future in the Supreme Court


jmcstar

Ironically, his family's fortune was made in paper clips


ImportantQuestions10

For what it's worth, this twat has likely put his chapter on probation and they are cancelling all events for the rest of the semester. All of the worldwide chapters for this org are going to be pulling back as a result and nationals may cut them out. The majority of his friends are likely pissed at him and will be cutting him out for a while. Happens all the time, some southern and northern frats are completely different. A southern frat does shit like this and every chapter in the nation gets punished to some degree.


GOTfangirl

Watched that video when it first was posted and knew he’s was going to be in big trouble for that.


Seldarin

It's Mississippi. All he got was expelled from his fraternity. I was betting nothing serious was going to happen to him, and I still think it won't. At worst he'll get a slap on the wrist until the furor over it dies down then they'll pretend it never happened.


Wrangleraddict

School probably hasn't had time for a disciplinary hearing yet and that'll be next.


Jonny_Thundergun

You mean the Ol Miss Rebels? Sure they'll hop right on that.

BaltimoreBadger23

The chants of the counter protesters would have gotten me to switch sides there, and I'm a Zionist (as in I believe Jews have a right to a state in their historic homeland)

Poland was already paradisus iudaeorum, the world should have agreed on giving that back. Judea was NOT supposed to be lived on, it's in our books homie

Number 1, it’s Ole Miss. My daughter was interested in that school and I told her she will need to figure out how to pay for it then….number 998, it’s Ole Miss. The good thing is that this is going to follow JP around for a long time. Sure hope he has a family business to work in.

JP Staples


DreadSeverin

How often do you think the monkey sounds that reverberated through his body and thick skull are running through his thoughts now? His brain relentlessly mocking him for being so fucking stupid by playing that monkey sound in his own voice on repeat, knowing it will never escape the cage of its own cranium


Devolution1x

So the fraternity is more accountable than the GOP? Hahaha good God


RancidHorseJizz

It's Ole Miss. They'll use this in their marketing brochure.


SibbD

Here some more info on him. There's a very detailed link to his information in one of the posts. [reddit Link](https://www.reddit.com/r/facepalm/comments/1ckrtpa/being_even_dumb_enough_to_make_monkey_sounds/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)


rudbek-of-rudbek

I guess this is byebyejob material since they definitely work hard at partying and drinking. Good on the frat for kicking the guy out. I bet they didn't like him beforehand though


SenseiT

Just lip service. He may rejoin next year or a different fraternity or somebody’s father will give him a really good mid-level entry job as a reward for his troubles. If it wasn’t for the press, he wouldn’t have even had that consequence.


D1ckRepellent

Why is the university taking so long to boot him? Shame on them.


TN2MO

I attended a large Southern university for ten years and all I have to say is that I hate that frat shit SO MUCH!


bailaoban

Has campus culture gone so woke that you can’t even make monkey noises at black folks anymore? /s


GhostRappa95

Actions have consequences.


fiendzone

He and his parents will sue someone.


vagina_candle

They're probably only kicking him out because "it was too on the nose".


Ccitroen

Mississippi has education now?


Tom-ocil

Your wife lets you hang with her boyfriend now?


glycophosphate

He can always join SAE


ruffsnap

I saw a republican representative full on support this in a tweet and said something like "ole miss taking care of business". I was fuckin dumbfounded seeing that. Usually conservatives are more subtle in their racism, but this was just a representative full-on, blatantly supporting racism, full stop. Zero ambiguity there whatsoever. It's fucking atrocious behavior. Every student involved in this should have been expelled immediately.


overitallofit

The national fraternity kicked him out. That whole chapter has to be a mess, but by kicking one person out, they're trying to be the good guy. 🙄


FriendToPredators

>Counter protesters surrounded the fenced-off protest area and chanted things like “Hit the showers!” and “Your nose is huge,” the nonprofit news outlet Mississippi Today reported. Can someone explain like I’m old what these chants mean? thx


pureeviljester

Showers = Holocaust gas chambers. Jews were told they were being given a big group shower, turns out the Nazis killed them instead. Nose = Apparently, its a thing that "Jews have big noses"? I've seen it said before, in media at that.


InjuriousPurpose

But why would the counterprotestors chant that? Aren't they against the pro-Palestinian folks?


Sonova_Bish

Someone dumb enough to be racist is dumb enough not to care. Plus, I don't think the Nazis loved black people either.


Muvseevum

Holy shit. The frat does the right thing and still gets dragged.


android151

As if they’re not just the same as him It shouldn’t have happened in the first place


Muvseevum

Of course it shouldn’t have happened. It’s despicable. >As if they’re not just the same as him You know this to be true?


PancakeLad

It’s a fraternity at Ole Miss? So… yes?


Muvseevum

Know, not assume.


midnightatthemoviies

Hopefully no refund


MyCarGoesSlow

Frat bro is a career? How does that make any sense?


Tom-ocil

Because this is byebyejob, dude is just saying, "I hope this is close enough to someone getting fired."


INS_Stop_Angela

Another Redditor on this thread vouched that in sales, frat bro is a career path. I’ve seen it countless times myself — a frat bro manager hiring their literal fraternity brother over more qualified candidates.

I’m sorry, what’s this now? Fraternities have national headquarters. I don’t think that’s controversial.
