The IUSF should be banned by court for the various convictions of damage to public property and assaults on junior students.

Keep them behind the bars for ever. I as a tax payer do not wish to share a single cent for the benefit of these culprits.

Violating court order is contempt. Give them a long jail term so that it will serve a deterrent for all students
