… you have to ask yourself: How does OSU top that?
Well, ask no more:
A 22-year-old Oklahoma State University student faces two felony charges for allegedly using a loaded gun during fraternity hazing.
Owen Hossack, a now former Alpha Gamma Rho member, faces two counts of pointing a firearm at an individual with the intent to harm, KFOR reports.
Hossack is accused of holding a loaded gun to a pledge’s head on Aug. 16 in an extended cab pickup truck and asking the student if he would take a bullet for his frat brothers. When the pledge said no, Hossack allegedly became angry and yelled before placing the gun up to another pledge and asking the same question, according to an affidavit. Shortly after the second pledge’s response, a flash of light was seen and the passenger window exploded.
No one was hit by the bullet.
OOOOOOOOOOklahoma!! Where the guns come sweepin’ down the plains!
*******************
Here’s some real tasty details I bet even Aunt Eller couldna whipped up.
During an interview with OSU police Sept. 11, Hossack said he fired the weapon at the window, which he believed to be open, to frighten the pledges.
Hossack, who was secretary of the Interfraternity Council in 2013…
Number One: Nuthin wrong with firin a gun out a open window. Everybody on the street oughta be armed to defend themselves.
Number Two: They voted me fuckin secretary of the whole Interfraternity Council.

UPDATE: Says here the shooter had passed anti-hazing training. Hm. Was the course explicit about not putting guns in people’s faces and threatening to shoot them? Sounds as though we need a little tweaking.

For all the high voltage huffing/puffing and gorilla like chest beating from OSU flacks, I still haven’t seen a lawsuit against SI. You would think that with Uncle TBoone and his gazillions, OSU would have thrown SI into court as quickly as possible. Yet, nada. I wonder why????
