    Is this one of those passive agressive things where you won't say it, but you're trying to get everyone else to?

    It seems easy in retrospect, but yeah I was chewed out by a little old lady and her church group at the polls after I voted for it.

    "You college student's are ruining Ruston, if this passes this town will become a den of sinners and the many innocents will be killed by drunk driving college students!"

    I just laughed and kept walking

    I wonder if that that old biddy knows that polling place harrasment is a federal felony.

    Probably wouldn't care she was being a Christian Soldier and going to jail for it would just make her the talk of her knitting circle. In the end the measure passed and suprise, none of what she predicted happened. In fact Ruston has grown by leaps an bounds since then, and getting back to the original topic would this law and the growth it's spurred have happened if Dan Hollingsworth (Mayor then and now) had been anti-Tech and stood against it? Probably not, I'm just curious does this girl have a beef with the current Mayor or have ties to another candidate?

    With statements about needing to better represent student interests/wants in Ruston and focusing on the Mayoral race you are implying that the current/recent mayor has not been concerned with student interests/wants and needs to be voted out.

    This couldn't be farther from the truth and makes me think one of 3 things;
    She has a horse in this race
    Has an issue with Hollingsworth (whether personal or political party)
    Is uneducated on the issues

    Anyone who writes a letter like that has never been outside the confines of their dorm room/classroom. I know it has been much worse, but even when I got to Tech in the Fall of '03, there was a lot less to do than there is now.
    Since then:
    Chillis
    Applebees
    Movie Theater
    Lowes(most college kids could care less)
    Canes
    WoW
    102 a Bistro
    Raw
    Counter Culture

    Im sure there are many more, but these are the major ones.

    But still. As her being the SGA president, she has a responsiblity to be non-bias toward thing like this. No matter how she feel about the subject, personally.

    Being non-biased is one thing, being completely ignorant and oblivious is another...

    My guess is that she was either told to start a voter registration drive by somebody higher up at Tech, or it's a statewide initiative started by the Louisiana Council of Student Body Presidents.

    Here is the official city ordinance:

    Between the hours of 12:00 midnight on Saturday and 6:00 a.m. on the following Monday morning, or between the hours of 12:00 midnight and 6:00 a.m. on the following morning, it shall be unlawful for any retail dealer to sell, offer to sell, dispense or give away any beverages of either low or high alcoholic content within the city. If the sale of low or high alcoholic content beverages and/or admission or cover charges to the facility constitutes a majority of the gross receipts of any retail dealer, then at the hours set forth in this section, the business establishment shall be closed and the dealer shall cause the customers and patrons to leave the premises not later than 12:15 a.m., and shall securely lock all of the entrance doors to the building or other facilities where the high or low alcoholic beverages are sold or dispensed.
    (Ord. No. 1395, § 1, 12-17-2002)

    BTW, I couldn't find anything in the current city ordinance code that prohibits girls from living in a sorority house or defining a brothel as more than 7 girls living in a house. It's possible that it's written in a cryptic message I didn't see, though.
