Somehow somebody’s responsible for the persistence of such violence because they did not prevent it from happening under their watch. So yeah, I submit to your point that banning frats won’t solve the issue. But somehow it provides a short-term solution to the problem. However, we need more than just short-term solutions.

Miriam wants to go as far as banning frats and soros. I dare say go for it!

hi JM. with this statement, I think you’re riding on the same hasty generalizations you claim to be against.

sabi mo rin kailangan patunayan ng mga frats na hindi lahat sila pumapatay. why do peaceful and progressive frats have to do that? the burden of proof is not with them. you would have made a better argument if you listed accounts of fraternity related violence but you didn’t even seem to try. in fact, when you do that, you’ll realize that only a handful of frats from among UP’s many frats are regularly involved in such incidents. i think it’s unfair that for all these frats’ contribution to the university and to society, some people use this admittedly deplorable incident to generalize all of them to as far as calling for their abolition.
