Oregon Action Team no longer allowed to sell pizza, do anything

A ruling has just come down that the Oregon Action Team will no longer be allowed to sell pizza on campus to promote their campaign. The OAT has been selling pizza for a measly 25 cents per slice for the last week or so, but this is apparently a violation of the Oregon Administrative Rules. Sam Dotters-Katz, the ASUO Exec candidate for the OAT, said that grievances have yet again been filed against them. (Drink!)

This decision comes directly after another ruling that prohibits the Oregon Action Team from wearing their campaign t-shirts on the same day that any of their advertisements appear in the Daily Emerald. It’s clear that the OAT’s political opponents are throwing out all the stops to keep them out of office, but why did they have to go and put the pizza in the crossfire?

“We’re just trying to hook up students with cheap pizza, and some haters are trying to shut us down,” said Dotters-Katz.

Exactly. The perpetrators of this deed must seriously ask themselves what sort of monsters they have become if they’re willing to kill student access to 25 cent pizza in the name of politics. For shame, sirs. For shame!

Also, the Rock the Yellow campaign would do much better to spend their political capital trying to boot Thunderlove from the ballot. He is the real threat – a dark horse candidate just waiting to swoop in and steal the elections.
