6/15/2011: Steve Duin of the Oregonian uses words, to equal effect, on the UO armed police legislation:
Yes, I think we can all agree that something drastic must be done to stop University of Oregon cornerback Cliff Harris from red-lining another rental car and further terrorizing the highways and byways of the Willamette Valley.
But arming the campus police?
Doug Trip can buy his own glock now with the $10,000.00 salary increase he just got. How much of a ‘competitive’ salary increase will we see for UO public safety administrators now that it looks like they will be police? How will we pay for it? Tickets and tuition increases all at the cost of students. Thanks for nothing UO.
