Oneonta’s Woes Hit National Stage
ONEONTA – Turning Point USA, a national organization for conservative college students, has posted a commentary on the City of Oneonta’s reaction to student rowdiness, decrying “completely biased actions towards a class of citizens, known as the student body.”
In particular, the commentary, by Dustin Tropp of Pittsburgh, Pa., criticizes reports that students will be arrested “even if the violation does not rise to the level of criminal nuisance.”
“Regardless of good intentions,” Tropp writes, “the results of the proposed actions are completely biased actions towards a class of citizen, known as the student body, who are unable to represent themselves. We are also seeing a misrepresentation of students by the public press who wants nothing more than to cause chaos.”
