Hey guys so this video is going around my friend group of allegedly a Tulane Frat beheading a goat. It’s tough to watch and one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen. For soem reason gmail’s not letting me send and CNN iReport link but it was put up there by an anonymous poster not affiliated with CNN 23 hours ago. Just google search iReport Cnn Horrifying video of fraternity and it should be the first hit. Don’t think this has caught on with mainstream media but I’m sure it will blow up. WAAAY worse than OU chant in my own opinion.

Hey guys,

I go to Tulane, and there’s been this video circulating of a goat getting its head chopped off with a samurai sword. According to people who work in IFC here it was pledges of one of the fraternities on campus. I attached the video.

Well I accidentally watched that and now my day is ruined.  Ruined.   Just wanted to grab a quick screenshot to post with a link and next thing you know the buffering stopped and the video kicked in of a freaking goat getting beheaded in the first second.  Didn’t even have a chance to look away. You can see it in the CNN link if you want but you’d have to be a real psychopath to willingly watch that, believe me.

Obviously there’s no proof or anything that this is actually a Tulane frat.  I mean unless they start chanting out their Greek letters in the video that I didn’t watch, all there is to go on is some rumor from a group chat and 1 sentence on a CNN iReport page, which I have no idea how that site works. If anyone can just post something? If there’s any sort of editorial process?  Like did someone at CNN approve this post and let it stay up there all night?  Very strange.
