More frat boyz behaving badly

Univ. of Florida frat accused of insulting wounded war vets

University

of Florida President Kent Fuchs promises a full investigation after

getting reports that members of the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity spat at a

group of disabled military veterans and stole their flags at a Panama

City Beach resort.

In an email to Warrior Beach Retreat at Laketown Wharf

Resort, Fuchs says the school is making every effort to learn what

happened and take appropriate action.

Fraternity members from Emory University were also at the

resort. School officials say there's no evidence to implicate their

students in the incident.

The Gainesville Sun reports

the fraternity is on conduct probation for a hazing incident. The

fraternity has suspended operations and is cooperating with the

investigation.

University spokeswoman Janine Sikes say the fraternity faces increased consequences if they violated probation requirements.

==============================

no matter who they acted this way toward, exponentially worse because of the group they actually did mistreat.  How you can even look at yourself in the mirror or show yourself in public after such behavior is beyond me.  No apology or act of contrition can erase this appalling display of disrespect to the individuals who served and our country which they represent, or sufficiently asuage the embarrassment this brings.  My gut reaction is expulsion.  Perhaps that's too harsh, but that's where I'm at as an initial response.
