WOW, you could have just told me not to post the whole article.

Some of you guys are batshit crazy. Wouldn't it be nice to have a discussion without nitpicking every little thing and being completely snarky for no reason?

I'm over this, I don't argue on online forums about miniscule details. Peace out.

Feel free to cite your source and maybe I'll consider believing you. Like OMG.

I was trying to be diplomatic.

I think accuracy is important, but it's also important to understand that there are people who monitor these boards and a rumor, especially in a situation like this could potentially cause harm to someone down the road.

I also have to say that I find the dismissive attitude regarding these charges to be a little disturbing. Whatever you think about the wisdom of our drug laws or whether they're possible to enforce, members of greek organizations have been arrested in connection with selling drugs.

Had there been an overdose in a house or a shooting or something of that nature, bad things could happen to the entire organization, not to mention the SDSU greek community.

Be smart -- think a little beyond 'kids will be kids' and realize that sometimes actions have consequences.

Sometimes, the internet is serious business.

Hard to let you know when you do not take PM's
And you, and others here, should know by now about TOS and copy write laws.
I am sorry that I somehow hurt you

For what it's worth, I see what you are saying and I totally agree with you. I don't think you were being dismissive about the situation either. I also wouldn't call what you were doing "spreading rumors". Everyone who is jumping down her throat about that.......come off it and shut up.

Some of you assholes in this thread need to lighten the fuck up and stop attacking people.

What they did at the school was commendable, but to talk about this like it was some triumph against the sale and use of drugs, especially blow and weed is ridiculously laughable.

Again, I agree. I'm not so sure about actually dealing drugs, but I will easily agree that if you continuously took 30,000 college age students at random and figured out how many of them casually do drugs it would be way higher than a thousandth of a percent of the group. There is no question about it.

I would almost guarantee that 1 out of every 5 or so of them smokes pot. I learned that statistic in a class actually........1 out of every 5-7 Americans smokes marijuana. I don't have the book that the statistic came from..........nor am I going to go digging through my stuff and the internet to find it, so tough.....if you choose not to believe anything without a "source" to back it up then I don't know what to tell you.

I don't think anyone is metaphorically high-fiving the drug task force. Rather, they're saying it might be a good plan for a student at the university to quit saying how amazingly drug-riddled it is.

Why should she stop being real about the situation?

I'm confused about a couple of things. I've heard SO many different numbers about how many total people were arrested. Why? I know there's a difference between students, non-students, and Greeks, but I've still seen anywhere from 100 to 30 people arrested.

Also, it has been stated that Theta Chi is the most involved, but a few posts back, it said 5 of their members were arrested. Were they the most involved in terms of volume or number of brothers? *Shrug* Warning: I'm slightly biased because my bf is a Theta Chi up here, but I just wanted to get the facts straight.

Lucy;
You are not alone in being a bit confused.
As you can see in a posting, NO SAE's where ever involved yet we were included in reports.
Best bet is to look at lastest news postings here or do your own search for lastest stories.

Because sdsuchelle has a GC history of posting hearsay and rumors instead of facts, therefore it's near impossible to separate what's real and what's not.

I'd link the SK@SDSU thread, but that one's gone.

Oh well, I agree with what she has said in this thread.
