Back when I was a student, a stunt like that would get you a minimum of three years in the military as an alternative to jail. Now we talk about removing their state aid and maybe giving them a suspention. What is wrong with that University President? I know he is new to the job but if he doesn't come down harder on those drunken bumbs, he will be dealing with another riot again, and soon!

Drunken college students----I don't think so--- lets call them what they are, CRIMINALS!!!! If you burn somebodys car you are an ARSONIST, not a college student, if you try to hit a police officer with a brick thats FELONY ASSULT, if people riot and destroy others property your not a college student, your a TERRORIST and and should suffer the consequence of your action.
These criminals should have there ass booted out of school immediately, all state and fed. school aid should be denied forever and that is the beginning, they should go through the criminal justice system and spend time in jail. This kind of B.S. will never stop, only get worse if nobody has the balls to come down on these punks and SEND THEM A MESSAGE!!!!

I have to agree with Shaker. What they did isn't just a college prank and they need to be held accountable. If my friends and I were to do what they did you can bet we would be behind bars right now with a many years of Interrogations to follow ... and rightly so.

Kick them out of school, then deny them any state assistence in the future. A lot of kids never get a shot at going to college, these kids did and look at what they have done with it. One kid who is accused of throwing bottles at police was in school for law enforcement. I really shouldnt even call them kids, they are supposed to be adults, now lets make them pay like adults. By the way, in my opinion this had nothing to do with sports, or the fact that the football team lost. These are criminals lookin for an excuse to do what they do. Our tax money should not go towards keeping any of these people in school. Time to learn some hard lessons, first one being, you blew your chance, now you pay your own way through college.

I think the first lesson they learn after their actions should be how to cope and adapt in jail. There is just no excuse or justification for their actions. Lock their asses up!

The kids were not running through town, over turning cars, burning and lotting. Someone has taken great liberty in labeling this a riot. This occurred in a large appartment complex. Not in the public streets. The party was out of control. People were really drunk. A riot implies purpose. The only purpose here was alcohol poisoning.

ri·ot
noun (plural ri·ots)
1. violent disturbance: a public disturbance during which a group of angry people becomes noisy and out of control, often damaging property and acting violently. In law, a riot is typically defined as a group of three or more persons disturbing the peace for private purposes.
This should explain to you what a riot is. Just because these bozo's were drinking doesn't get them off the hook.
This "group" should be used to set an example of what will happen to you if you choose to behave like a lunatic.

None of this would have happened if they'd just let the young adults party. Cops should expect hostility when they attempt to "control" parties in full swing. Just leave em alone for christs sake. Then when they get mad, the cops play the R card....the riot card.
College kids have always had drinking parties and such. *What's changed, is now we have "drink police" or "party police" more interested controlling college kids behavior and morals than fighting some crime.
