MSU Students Riot

[Allie]

After last nights loss to Texam 85-76, MSU students took to the streets in Cedar Village to riot. Three counties supplied mounted divisions while state, local, and MSU police were present for crowd control. By 7 P.M. all officer were dressed in full riot gear. It turned out to be an eventful evening. I did go to our brother fraternity to see what actually happens during a riot, and their house backs up to Cedar village. What I ended up seeing was over 2,000 people run through their parking lot.

Heres the headlines

My question is why do people need to start fies, damage property, and act like drunk fools?

Cuz in East Lansing the only thing better to do is go cow tipping?

Just kidding!

It's a good rush. ...I assume.

And it's always interesting to watch even if you're not starting fires, just to be right on the fringe of it. (If I remember the Halloween riot at school correctly)

As I remember MSU is known for this

I was talking to the House Mother at the LXA Chapter at KU who was a house mother there when her son was enrolled and eluded to the same type of goings on! I tallked to her 2 years ago!

So the Fine Up Standing College Kids at MSU sound like they have changed much!

How to control this type of situation: Bust Them and Boot them!

Most of these types of things are Felonies, DA!

D A one can be drunk on the moment, such as anti war rioting in N Y! How soon one forgets!

Why is it that when people riot they destroy their own neighborhoods? I never understood what that was intended to prove. "We're pi$$ed, so we're going to burn down our homes. So THERE! " Why not destroy the neighborhoods of the people they're mad at?
