furthermore, i hope the family tries to get this to news outlets to make west virginia, as a state and university, look really backwards and redneck...though i don't think they have a booming tourist industry

It's these responses I don't get. What an arse backwards way of looking at things. Reading this very own board you will find multiple Tiger fans who very much so enjoyed their visit. Yes it's true there apparently was an assault on an LSU fan but all indications would make it seem like the attackers were unaware of the allegiance of the victim and the car. Right now what we're looking at is a crime, if the poor guy chosen to be beaten isn't a Tiger fan then this board never hears about it. WVU didn't jump this guy, the other tens of thousands of WVU fans didn't jump this guy, the state that is home to so many hard working individuals did not jump this guy, 3 low IQ'd individuals (key word here) did this.

I understand you're angry, but to come at the state, school, and people with personal attacks and wish harm on them is ridiculous. As has been stated many times over, this could very well have happened any where. Unfortunately our reputation precedes us, as a result when this happened it didn't take much work to like the powder keg. Your views on the subject require some serious extensive rethinking.

And for the record the state has a huge tourism market.

You still don't get it. The goal is for your university to put ALOT of pressure on law enforcement to fricking get these animals off of the street and provide compensation to this family.

By making the state look backwards? That's going to do it? Are you kidding? A smear campaign is malicious, it helps no one.

I agree that I'd love to see law enforcement presence become more significant, and medical expenses taken care of. And you know what? To some degree we're likely to see both, but on the other hand you can't be naive, you've got to know that even the most well policed areas are subject to some crime. If there is a bigger police presence does this happen? Maybe not, but maybe it still does. There is no guarantee.
