Student arraigned, charged with disorderly conduct

good luck getting kids present at a “riot” to participate in incriminating their peers. that web site will never work. maybe they should make a facebook group.

Good luck George. I hope they make an example out of you.

Fraser,

Welcome to community college!! Or if you are lucky, the University of Phoenix.

I bleed Green and White. Fraser you dont. BY BY…and dont let the
door of the Student Union hit you in the A— on your way out.

I hope your folks are proud of you. At least your still alive.
Most cops in other countries dont put up with this BS.

FRASER...You committed a Felony for sure. You were there.
If E Lans and MS Pheu wants alumi support, they are gonna have tough this time. YOU SCREWED UP, you should have been in your dorm studying. If your on state support..free ride on my and other tax payers money, we want our money back. Were(Mich taxpayers and the folks that fund MSU and maybe you) pissed and we want our money back
or MSU and E Lansing to do what we pay them to do. ENFORCE LAW and Standards.

And this time we the taxpayers arent gonna let MSU or ELans. cover this up and let you and your friends skate.

The Cops…ie Police were letting a lot of folks skate…they only grabbed the worst. Now they gotta enforce the law and do it hard…

So bottom Line….YOUR TOAST....
You pissed away your free ride…welcome to the working world
or 8 bucks an hour.

Spartan Grad, right on. By the way Glen and these other clowns write, I highly doubt they have a college degree or a nickel to donate. Put your money where your mouth is ‘Big Guys’ and prove your donations went to Hillsdale and that they WERE going to MSU. Until then, shut up, because you sound like fools.

“GREAT School….Ive join some of the other alum. and changed my will as well. Was gonna give a ton of flowers to the hort. school and campus. Im 81 and looking forward to seeing God soon.” Good riddance. Go green.

Hillsdale is a very good college for corp. recruiters looking for complete conformist, conservative sheep. But they do get good jobs for the most part and make money and that’s what it’s all about in the US today. Just don’t look for out of the box thinking, most of them are so far in the box they can’t even see the sides. Go Green.

Fras, you were doomed from the start, being in humanities. You just sealed the deal with drinking. Have a nice time, selling TVs.

Screw all of you, this kid is a good straight arrow kind of guy.
Also if you claim to be a proud MSU alum or think that he should have stayed in his dorm
instead of going out, that’s fine, but when you can’t even spell words correctly or make elementary mistakes of using the wrong you’re your or by bye? let’s be honest, who are you to judge about school work.
Ethically speaking yeah people were being really stupid and trying to get tear gassed which personally is moronic, but I think he has a valid point when he expressed how unfair it was for the police to pick out the stragglers versus the kids in the crowd tearing up stop signs and starting fires.
And Broseff, from the way you write I can only assume you are still in High School or maybe college? Now I have to retract that thought because what person would turn on his or her fellow student. So it just must be you yourself are the douchey tool ass-clown.

F all haters,
GOOD LUCK GEORGE

Most of us Spartans are still standing behind you George.
Good luck to you. =)
GO GREEN. GO WHITE.
Sparty on.

To everyone who believes that George is “toast”....go read a legal book…or maybe Michigan Compiled Law. This law he broke was a city ordinance. How many of you were actually there at Cedar Fest? I was there observing, as was the ACLU. What this article FAILED to include is the fact that George was also physically choked by an undercover cop who did not identify him as such. As a fellow ACLU member, I assume that we are pursuing as case against ELPD and MSUPD for this unprofessional action.

Michigan State is lucky to have him as a student. I know him personally, having an extremely high GPA and a constant contributer to his peers and professors. Unless you know these students, you’d realize that they are EXTREMELY remorseful for their actions and in ways have already begun to pay their debt to the community. George got arrested and also breathilized: blowing a 0.0. He did make one bad choice but this should not and will not “scarlet letter” him for years to come.

So Fraser has a high GPA and “contributes to his peers” (a comment I disagree with, as a fellow student of the Arts and Humanities). That doesn’t mean anything when it comes down to the fact that he was THROWING BOTTLES AT POLICEMEN. He was on the outskirts of the crowd? He was still throwing bottles at policemen.

The students want to keep Welcome Week a week long? Congratulations, you just proved to the entire community that we can’t handle the responsibility of keeping ourselves under control.

Childish. Completely childish.

Quit hating,

First of all, there is no way that the cops could have arrested every person that committed some sort of crime. Fraser put himself in a bad position by throwing a can into the crowd, let alone at the cops. I don’t care if he threw one can, two cans or even a half of a can (I know that doesn’t make sense, but neither do you), all it takes is one to cause great harm to a person. Because the cops were in protective gear doesn’t make it okay for a person to throw a projectile at them to test its durability.

MOST SPARTANS ARE NOT STANDING BEHIND YOU GEORGE. Please know that! I for one think you should be expelled and fined and jailed for you reckless behavior. I’m so sick and *ucking tired of people making “everyday” mistakes and thinking that they shouldn’t be held accountable. GROW UP! This isn’t high school anymore. Also, I am a college student, a senior at that. Because Fraser and I are “fellow student” (albeit not for much longer) doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t turn on my fellow “spartan” when they commit a violent crime. And no, I’m not blowing it out of proportion. I was there on assignment and I saw people with bloodied heads and arms because they were hit with bottles… I saw people who couldn’t walk because they had huge gashes on their feet from the street being littered with broken bottles.

FRASER, YOU ATTRIBUTED TO THIS! YOU NEED TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

For all the idiots that are down playing what happened, please GROW UP or at least go spend another 4 years in high school until you get your shit together!

For all those with sense and integrity, KEEP HATING!

Jordan, he or she has a high GPA in the Arts and Humanities college (or as I like to call it, the 8th circle of hell)? That’s impossible, everyone knows how difficult arts and humanities can be. I have no sympathy for this kid. He threw something at the Police, he deserves to be choked, charged and kicked out of school.

Who cares if he entered within 10ft or not of an officer? That’s not the offense he is being charged with. If you read the article or at least talked to George (who presumably you are friends with) you will find that he is being charged with disorderly conduct.

I believe that you are correct in saying that this is a local ordinance, but believe me this WILL turn into a felony charge of inciting a riot. Not only that, he will likely be suspended from the University if he hasn’t already.

Jordan, I have no doubt that when Fraser isn’t drinking and drunk off of liquid courage and stupidity that he is a decent person. However, he committed a crime and should be held responsible for that. This isn’t a witch hunt with him. He admitted to the crime. Public embarrassment isn’t enough of a penalty to repay society for his actions. Cedar Fest and riotous behavior is something that needs to stop. It’s time people are shown that the University and City mean business.

urrrrked is a tool as well. oh well.

I cannot believe that the City decides that this is a good use of my taxpayer dollars. I pay higher property taxes than I would if I lived in Manhattan, and what do I get for it? Oh, I know what I get for it. Uneducated, incompetent police officers like Derek Wo-whatever the hell his name is. I’d rather have the military in place than this amateur collaboration of city and county “police”

“What this article FAILED to include is the fact that George was also physically choked by an undercover cop who did not identify him as such. “

Hmmmm, sounds like it wasnt a cop at all, maybe it was someone he hit with a bottle.
By the way, he was only seen throwing one bottle that does not mean he didnt throw more. Should the police of waited to see if he threw more risking the safety of others?

I feel bad that he made this decision but he must live with the consequences.

And just so everyone knows the ACLU is the same group that protects NAMBLA, (North American Man Boy Love Association) this is a group of child molestors that talk about how to seduce young boys to have sex with them.

I think I’m a bit older than most of you…I was at Cedar Fest in 1987. The “Big One.” The one referenced in many of these articles as the one that caused the clamp-down. I was curious; so I went to see and be a part of it. At midnight, the stupidity started breaking out and you know what I did? I started walking home. I didn’t flip a police car; I didn’t burn a couch; I didn’t pull down a lamp-post or stop-sign; and I certainly didn’t heave an object into the air (and would not have even if I had been guaranteed to hit a Michigan Fan in his flabby rear-end). Had 3,500 other people done the same thing last weekend, we wouldn’t be here. And George wouldn’t be trying to sell his green-and-white apparel on eBAY to fund his Legal Defense Fund.

Personal responsibility and itegrity, folks. Don’t know where this is being taught anymore…but fewer and fewer people are learning it. I’ve heard integrity defined as: How you act when no one is watching.

George chose to act the way he did on the edge of a riotous crowd. He also chose to admit, to a reporter, that he “only” threw one can. So, in addition to lacking integrity, evidence points to George lacking a considerable dose of intelligence.

bach: Noteworthy contribution to the discussion. Eloquent, well-thought out, internally consistent and supported by cultural references both historical and contemporary. I’m actually tearing up at the beauty of it.

I look forward to your future pearls of wisdom.

Most people still fail to realize it was a can, not a bottle.
For being toast, he’s actually fine. He will just end up getting a misdemeanor with a lot of community service. So that means staying in school.
I don’t understand why people are so hateful towards him. He’s not a murdering felon.
Another thing that has failed to been mentioned was the sheer fact that the whole reason that people were ripping up stop signs and throwing beer bottles was to, in fact, get tear gassed. People think that getting tear gassed is the coolest thing ever and the sign of the ultimate party. All george did was mistakingly take part in something he probably didn’t realize was going on.
I personally think everyone should just stop arguing about the matter because frankly we have no say or control over what ends up happening.
