ASUO continued from page 1 that people think they won’t be identified, leading them to act more aggressively. He said combining large groups, nightfall and alcohol consumption lowers inhibitions, and that if two people come up with an idea — such as setting fire to a golf cart — others may follow suit. According to the Harvard School of Public Health, four drinks for a woman or five drinks for a man, when consumed consecutively, con stitute binge drinking. Kali said that this is not much for many students, and that they can easily consume this in one night — likely impairing their judgment. Malle said rioting happens rarely because many elements must come together. He thinks riots occur near holidays or times of change, such as when school starts, Halloween and near graduation. He said that these are exciting times for students, and that police should increase patrols at these times. “I would find it wrong for there to be a crackdown on parties altogeth er,” Malle said. “Most of the time students study and get along fine.” Kali said she would like Party Pa trol — a team of officers working overtime during weekends to bust parties and write alcohol citations — to be reinstated. She said the Party Patrol used to request the addresses of the homes for which kegs had been pur Mark McCambridge Emerald Students sign the "Committed to our Community" poster after an ASUO press conference concerning the recent Eugene riots. chased from local bars and contact the people living there to remind them of their rights and obliga tions. Kali said she thinks this helped prevent parties from get ting out of control. Pilliod said she doesn’t think the reinstatement of the Party Patrol is the answer, and that just because some students participated in the ri ots doesn’t mean the student body at large should be punished for the actions of a few. She also emphasized that the riot was not a student-run event, and is by no means representative of the majority of students at the University.

Reaction continued from page 1 opposed to the U.S. going to war against Iraq. “I think this war is purely for economic gain,” she said. “And I’m worried about possible human rights violations.” "...I don't know of any other way to solve the problem." Brendan Purkapile freshman Some students, such as Katie Parker, a junior journalism major, are not in favor of war against Iraq, but are unsure of the alternatives. “I don’t think war is an answer,” Parker said. “But I don’t know of any other way to solve the problem.” Brendan Purkapile, an undeclared freshman, said he opposes U.S. mili tary action in Iraq because America needs to deal with other internation al issues. Purkapile said if America intervenes in the Middle East, lend ing stability to the Palestinian people and countries such as Afghanistan should come first. “I think we need to show we can help a country instead of just desta bilizing them and overturning their system,” he said.

Protest continued from page 1 authority of power to wage war against Iraq,” he said. “War should be the last resort, not the first resort.” Ed Reiman, Vietnam veteran and Eugene resident, said people should fight for their beliefs, even if they are considered un-American. “It’s not unpatriotic to see the truth, and it’s not unpatriotic to shout about it when you see it,” he said. Reiman also had plenty of mud to sling at Republicans, specifically Senate Minority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., who Reiman accused of try ing to quell criticism of Bush and the war. “Trent, you two-bit, draft-dodg ing, pretty-boy — you sit down and you shut up,” he said. Several booths were set up around the perimeter of the court yard as people gave away fliers and buttons and gathered support. “We feel the (Bush) administra tion is ignoring and trampling on "We feel the (Bush) administration is ignoring and trampling on international law as a way to solve international conflict" Esther Jacobson Progressive Responses member international law as a way to solve international conflict,” said Esther Jacobson, a Progressive Responses member who was staffing the booth. “We don’t like the way we are rushing into war,” she said. Some people said they still sup ported the U.S. military, however. Bruce Watson, a self-employed Eugene resident, stood at the comer of the courtyard and quietly dis played his sign “Rush is Right.” “Without the U.S. military, there would be no peace movement,” he said. To the participants of the rally, Watson had strong words, display ing another sign that said: “You’ll defend tree huggers, alternate life styles and suckerfish, but you won’t defend the country that protects your rights — shame on you.” Contact the senior news reporter at janmontry@daUyemerald.com.
