I posted the statute because you talked about it, it's only fair to the discussion that the rest of people be able to read it. I also would never trust anyone who would do those kinds of things to people that are supposed to be their friends and brothers. Sorry, that's juts me.
You guys are just damn lucky that none of your pledges (or ex pledges) has sued you. None of you seem to be forward-looking enough to see how a lawsuit could affect you. And the fact that it's all caught on tape doesn't really help your case either. There's hours upon hours of footage that hasn't even aired and could easily be subpoenaed from MTV.
It doesn't matter that penal code is different from criminal code... I wasn't quite sure what you meant by that. I never said one was more enforceable than the other. Criminal code is enforced by the police and the District Atty's office would bring suit. With other laws, someone personally would have to bring suit. That's all that I originally meant by that. And it's not like the group as a whole could be sued, you'd all be individually sued. I'm guessing that DOC isn't operating in a business form, therefore you don't have any of the individual protections that something such as a corporation would have. Hard to explain quickly, but it affects who can be found liable and who can't.
And yes, it's rather convenient for you guys that you got kicked of campus. But that sure as hell doesn't seem like something to be proud of.
Look, you're not going to find many people on this site that agree with you. A few, yes. But the rest of us are disgusted at how you are representing greeks. And it affects all of us as greeks having to deal with these images and convince potential greeks and everyone else that our respective chapters are nothing like yours.
You're not going to convince us that what you're doing is right, because it goes against the very values and ideals that our respective GLOs have taught us.
