Talk about shaking things up... the frat rats (they always wore those goofy shirts touting some drunk fest they attended) and bow heads/SBs were always baffled and didn't have a clue what "frat" I represented.
Little did they know it was a slam on all that was the "Greek" system.

John M. Lohnes needs to contact an attorney. He should have the attorney sue the fraternity officers for interfering with parental rights by giving the underage girls alcoholic beverages. He should also have the attorney help him swear out a complaint against each member of the fraternity who might have circled around him. In New Hampshire that act constitutes assault if it is threatening and kidnapping (which by the way is still a capital crime in New Hampshire) if it is meant to prevent an individual from exercising his free will to leave. Once the complaint is filed, the Durham police will have 24 hours to act upon it. If they refuse to act upon it, Lohnes can file the complaint with the New Hampshire state police along with an additional complaint against the Durham Police Department. If the New Hamsphire state police refuse to act, he can file a complaint against the New Hampshire state police with the New Hampshire attorney general. I can assure you that neither the fraternity nor the Durham P.D. nore the New Hampshire state police want the trouble their actions have caused them. Oh, by the way, it's not really credible that the Durham P.D. was not able to determine if Lohnes had a valid carry permit. If the computer was down -- a common excuse which is usually in the vernacular a lie -- the Durham P.D. could have telephoned -- yeah, I know it's New Hampshire, but there are telephones there -- the Manchester P.D. Were I Lohnes, I would also get as many names of the individuals my daughters came into contact with and find out precisely what happened. Any in appropriate touching -- since the age of consent in New Hampshire is 18 -- is statutory rape.
The world needs more dads like this.
Go dad!
I was incensed until I learned it was "frat boys."
Thought it was "fat boys."
Gotta update my eyeglass prescription.
GOOD dad!!
Doesn't he know that the children of New Englands royalty are above the laws that he and his daughters must comply with. After all one of those Frat Boys might be related to the Kerrys' or even the Kennedys'.
The police officers who arrested him should be publicly shamed and the father should be publicly honored and remunerated at their expense.
Typical dad... total Bozo when it comes to his daughters. I couldn't read the whole article 'cause the link is dead. The saddest part of this whole thread is all the folks encouraging law suits against the school, fraternity, dad, police, etc. The frats should be happy they didn't get shot and the dad should be happy he got his daughters home. Nobody's going to live happily ever after if more lawyers get involved. Either way sounds like these twins are out of control. Dad should focus more on them as opposed to who they're with when they decide to run off.
What's that old saying again? 17 will get you 20?
Where I live, fathers still kick the tar out of punks who are too big for their britches. My son's friends refer to me as Mister - if they know what's good for them.
A gun works a lot better then a pea shooter.
