Anti-JADE chalkings, fliers criticize drug bust
By Anthony LaMesa | October 17, 2003Bright green flyers deriding the Jefferson Area Drug Enforcement Task Force as "JADED" and chalkings of marijuana leaves blanketed Grounds last Friday around the Bryan Hall walkway and the Ruffner Hall pedestrian bridge. Some of the fliers featured a large picture of the serial rapist in an attempt to argue that funds allocated for the "Operation Spring Break Down" drug bust would have been better spent finding the serial rapist, who remains at large. A chalking on the side of Ruffner Hall had the Web address of the National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws written below a picture of a marijuana leaf. Although remnants of pro-Marijuana chalkings still remained on some University buildings yesterday, the fliers all had been removed from the Bryan Hall walkway. University Police Capt.
