All guilty
Dear College Republicans, I
ysould like to respond to your
efforts in retailing ASUO Vice
I’resident JoSonJa Watson I am
sure that each and every one of
the petition signers have not
lived such an innocent life in
which they art; aide to con
demn another for such acts
II tin- petition signers would
take just a few moments to
watt h W atson work, then per
haps they may see her as a pro
lesMon.il pis! as Jennifer Bills
has commented Bills works
with Watson on a daily basis
and lias had the opportunity to
see Watson handle herself
where tier job is concerned.
All of Bills' comments have
been positive and I will trust
tier judgment as a student lead
i r Vuu iiugh! consider hiking
iIh- limn to witness Watson in
In! w orking environment iind
tilt'll from tlii'iii Ilust.' your (in i
sion.
! tin not sen .in\ point in
which In in ill W.itson on the
ii.isis ol her person.ll lile U ,it
son h.is thus t.ir lione .in ext el
lent (oh .is vice president and I
believe she will continue to do
so it .lllowed the opportunity
II you are the ones who wish
to punish her lor her deviant
act. then von should also con
sider rewarding her efforts and
great contributions as vice pres
nienl I fail to see what grounds
you have given to remove Wat
son based on her professional
work Are you sincerely con
cerned about the effects her ai t
would impose upon her job as
a student leader, or is this pist
another one of your ways to
i reate political waves'
How many ot us (students
and leaders) can claim that we
are solely Innocent ol such
( riminal acts as a minor in pos
session, false identification,
consuming illegal intoxicants'
How many of the young men
of our campus honestly can say
that they have never engaged in
any sexual acts with a female
under the age of 1H' Although
the state of Oregon does not
have direct statutory rape, it is
classified as sexual mist on
duct Good luck guys
1 do not believe that many of
us can say we are innocent of
all these crimes As it goes,
they are all crimes, although
some may fie more severely
punishable, wo ure all guilty!
I am sure those "innocent"
people will (lime to terms in
who is guilty or who is not As
for me, 1 would rather not catch
tills wave!
