Today’s Coaster ran an article titled, “Ocean Residents Upset Over Sorority, Fraternity Signs.” The general gist of the story is that the locals are mad that fraternity and sorority members live in their community. Now, I won’t go into detail about how the locals in Ocean Township are MUCH MORE treacherous and dangerous to the well-being of this township than some random college students, but I will say that enough is enough already with the unconstitutional actions being taken by Ocean Township!

From the article linked above:

Ocean Township Mayor William Larkin said when students place fraternal lettering or signs on their houses “it’s is like putting a bulls-eye on the side of the house” and the police will keep an extra eye on that residence.

He said special police patrols cruise the neighborhood, especially on the weekends, and that the township has been proactive in trying to control the problem.

Hello you fucking assholes! This is called PROFILING and it is illegal! That’s right – it doesn’t only apply when you are a state trooper pulling over black motorists! It also applies to college students being blatantly over-exposed to police presence and scrutiny!

Yet no one does anything about this problem. No one fights this fight. Only a small handful of Greek students even see the problem for what it really is. Why, you ask? Because the university has so successfully warped the minds of the students into being concerned primarily with destroying each other that most fraternities and sororities can’t fathom any other type of existence.

Is the university to blame? Absolutely. They don’t take a proactive stance against these nosy-neighbors or the unconstitutional practices of the local law enforcement. For some reason, they shy away from using the university’s local economic power as a bargaining chip.

Are the students to blame? Of course! Any idiot who is pissing outside of their house or breaking the local noise ordinance deserves to have a finger pointed at them. That being said, to truly break a noise ordinance you need to be making noise similar to a pack of lawnmowers, but that’s another story for a different time (like a courtroom).

Are the neighbors to blame? Most definitely. These are people who apparently never went to college or did, in fact, go to college and were the losers who became dorm rats. These college kids are doing what college kids “do” – have fun. The neighbors are also to blame for over exaggerating the problem. I happen to LIVE on the street where that house is pictured in the article linked above and believe me – there are NO PROBLEMS AT ALL coming from that house!

And what’s further is that if any of these idiot neighbors checked on something that was REALLY important, like the sex offender registry, they’d realize that there is a sex offender living on this street, too. Now who deserves more scrutiny? A guy who fucked a little kid or some sorority girls with letters in their window?

In Ocean Township, apparently it’s the sorority girls.

Idiots.
