i'd rather be shot than....

this takes out of control to another level.

two morgan state students decided to have their friend shoot them so they could avoid having to undergo fraternity pledging rituals. this is so sad. the two guys wanted to stay in baltimore for the summer, so they believed being shot would relieve them of any fraternity activities. so - one of these guys came up with a clever idea: let's ask a friend to shoot us.

here's where it gets even crazier. the friend actually agrees and shoots the guys; one is injured in the leg extremely close to his femoral artery. [sigh] now the two guys have this creative story for the police: we were robbed and shot outside a local gas station. [oh-k] the police started the investigation and reviewed the surveillance tapes at the gas station; they realized that they had never been there; in fact, they found the weapon in the back of the "victim's" car. the guys now face charges of filing a false police report, etc..

question - what in the living hell... just really - what the hell? i am part of the pan hellenic family [what's up, sorors!]- and it disturbs me that it's this bad. what exactly were these guys faced with where they would rather be shot instead of deal with a frat? i can imagine, but really - what happened? which frat do you think will be suspended because of this? you already know it's coming.

for the record, i don't condone any form of hazing. i only support love and brotherhood-sisterhood relationships that fraternities & sororities normally provide. i don't know which frat is responsible for this, but i'm about to show my frat some love b/c i know every single frat at morgan is feeling the heat for this incident. let's get it together people!
