Over 20 Fullerton residents came to Tuesday’s city council meeting to express their concerns and opinions about the 2 a.m. to 5 a.m. city-parking ban that affects multiple Fullerton neighborhoods. Many residents, mostly consisting of homeowners from the streets of Citrus and Porter, argued that Fullerton Police Department’s temporary lack of enforcement of the ban in their neighborhoods has brought unsafe and unsanitary behavior to their area over the last few months. The ban has not been enforced in certain areas recently because the police department receiving complaints that people were unable to park in front of their residences. Residents mentioned suspicious people and cars loitering in the early hours of the morning; trash including condoms, used diapers and liquor bottles thrown into their yards; and vandalism of their property. “You have people walking up and down the street at all hours of the night.

A collaboration from numerous Californian tattoo artists stands as one of the starring attractions in the “Tattooed and Tenacious” exhibit in McCarthy Hall.

Inked history exhibited

McCarthy Hall hosts student-ran “Tattooed and Tenacious,” which celebrates women of California’s past. KALEB STEWART Daily Titan Women throughout history often wore tattoos as an emblem of pride, even in frilly Victorian dresses

as evidenced by the “Tattooed and Tenacious: Inked Women in California’s History” exhibit, currently on

display at McCarthy Hall. Students in an anthropology Museum Practicum course staged and laid out the exhibit, which was originally created by Exhibit Envoy executive director Amy Cohen. Victoria Ramirez, who is a part of the public outreach team for the exhibit and a member of the class, talked about how she was glad that the theme of the

exhibit was specifically about women and tattoos given that there are still judgments around the two. “I was talking to some guy at a bar one time and he told me that girls and tattoos are trashy,” Ramirez said. “And I was like, ‘Oh, well you should really go to this exhibit that we’re having.’” SEE INKED 4

Mark Steines, the co-host of Home & Family on the Hallmark Channel, and Lynsi Snyder, the president and owner of In-N-Out Burger, joined the third annual Cal State Fullerton Center for Family Business Hall of Fame induction Tuesday. The event recognizes family-owned businesses based in Southern California that improve their communities, continue to grow throughout generations, protect the vision of the founder of the business and support education in their communities. The 2017 excellence in community award was presented to Wienerschnitzel, the strength in succession award was presented to Totten Tubes and the founders vision award was presented to Magnaflow. The commitment to education award was not presented this year. During the banquet, Steines talked with Snyder about running the family business of In-N-Out. “For 68 years–nearly seven decades–(In-N-Out) has

served the highest quality burgers, fries, and shakes that the bellies of my sons has ever tasted and myself and many people in this group,” Steines said. Snyder spoke about the importance of bringing her regional and divisional managers close to her, even cooking dinner with her team as part of that goal. “This is not an event where they’re being professional or being trained it’s strictly for them to get together and have tons of fun,” Snyder said. “It’s very awkward because many of them are older than me, and I’m like their mom over there. Steines then commented on the importance eating has in terms of coming together with one’s family. “But that’s what family is. It’s eating together, breaking bread together,” Steines said in response. “We talk about that all the time–the importance of family in general, whether it’s business or not, how it brings you together and it’s a place to have conversation.” During the event, City National Bank and the Center for Family Business presented a check of $5,000 to Slave 2 Nothing, Snyder’s foundation, to help stop human trafficking.

The bill protects financial aid for undocumented students and attempts to shield undocumented students from immigration enforcement. The board officially opposed AB 393. “Instead of voting to increase student fees, we need creative solutions to restore what is promised in the master plan and I’m confident that we can do it if we work together,” said CFA President Jennifer Eagan. “The CSU should support this bill as a way to pressure the legislature to increase the budget for the CSU.” The board votes on the tuition increase Wednesday. Quirk-Silva’s bill will not be passed until at least September. In regard to AB 21, the board’s official stance is “watch,” meaning all aspects of the bill are being considered by the board and no official stance has been determined. Several speakers expressed concern about the board’s lack of expressed support for AB 21. Board member and California Lt.

Gov. Gavin Newsom called the concern “legitimate” and acknowledged the “spirit of” the bill. “I think it would be helpful, particularly to allay the fears and the anxiety that were expressed today ... To reinforce those principles and to at least acknowledge those concerns as it relates to this particular piece of legislation and our quasi-neutral/watch stance,” Newsom said. CSU Chancellor Timothy White issued a memorandum on immigration enforcement on CSU campuses on Feb. 22. “Our University Police departments will not honor immigration hold requests, and our University Police will not contact, detain, question or arrest individuals solely on the basis of being–or suspected of being–a person who lacks documentation,” the statement read.

Approving an Academic Master Plan The Committee on Educational Policy approved academic program projections and suspensions, determining what programs would be modified from its current iterations as part of the Academic Master Plan. Projections are campus’ requests to begin creating program proposals. Suspensions are either temporary or a preliminary action to discontinuation. The board approved the development of 40 new degree programs, including 12 new ethnic studies degree programs. “I am extremely happy to see that we have not discontinued any ethnic studies courses. At the same time, I see that we are adding 12 new ones in the next coming years, this just shows how prepared we are sending our graduates to the workforce in California,” said student trustee Jorge Reyes Salinas. “It really shows that we are listening

She said she walked into Disney Animation Studios in Glendale and gave the receptionist her book. Two days later, a Disney executive asked if she would come work for them. Woolverton said she came to Disney with “feminist ideas” and worked hard to create different kinds of stories that she often had to fight for. Along with “Beauty and the Beast,” she had a hand in “The Lion King,” “Mulan” and Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland” from 2010. Woolverton said she remembers one of the directors who would never look her in the eye. She said she

would write scenes where Belle’s character was portrayed as an independent woman with plans to travel the world but would walk into the studio a few days later to find the storyboards changed to Belle baking a cake instead. Despite her work, Woolverton said she thinks that Disney “still hates her.” She said she was not consulted on the newest live-action “Beauty and the Beast” or invited to the premiere. Woolverton said Emma Watson, who plays Belle in the film, called and begged her to come to the event and convinced her to attend.

Woolverton’s work on “Beauty and the Beast” helped the 1991 film become the first animated feature nominated for best picture at the Academy Awards. During the event, she explained to students the difficulties she faced as one of the few women in the room on multiple major Disney films. “I was in a hostile environment every single day,” Woolverton said. “I was fighting for something that I really believed in and

as “Maleficent” made the event worthwhile for her. “Just seeing her talking about it was phenomenal because it’s real–it’s more real,” Dang said. Many students gave Woolverton compliments for her work in film and thanked her for the contributions she made. Woolverton, who received her Master of Arts in theater for children from Cal State Fullerton, said she remembers being attracted to CSUF because it was the only school that offered a specialty in her passion. Woolverton said she still feels there is a sense of male dominance in her field but thinks there is great progress for women, specifically in television. “You have to trust that your ideas are as valuable and important as anyone else’s and just as good,” Woolverton said. “I throw everything I have at it. I always write long. I always write too much.”

NEWS Kraemer shelter set to open in April

Phase one of multiservice center to offer 100 beds to homeless. JASON ROCHLIN Daily Titan

Orange County Community Services Director Dylan Wright presented a status report on the Kraemer Year-Round Emergency Shelter & Multi-Service Center at the Fullerton City Council meeting Tuesday. Work on the shelter began in 2013 when Wright said the Orange County Board of Supervisors and north-county cities partnered with city partners to design and endorse the structure. Building construction broke ground in 2016, and Mercy House will operate the facility once it opens. “(The Kraemer Shelter) is unique throughout the county. There is no center like this,” Wright said. “It’s unique to the county and part of a much larger effort to combat and address homelessness throughout the county.” Wright said the shelter will be a permanent facility providing emergency sheltering and on-site services for program participants. It will be serving single men and women but not families. The project was split into two phases by the Board of supervisors in December of 2016. The first phase is planned to be opening in April with 100 beds, temporary services, delivered meals and exterior restrooms and showers in a “loading dock” area, Wright said. “Mercy House ... will be

screening those at the Fullerton Armory to identify program participants there first,” Wright said. “There will also be on-site security, a neighborhood patrol and a community oversight board.” The second phase is scheduled to be completed in the summer of 2018 and will have 200 beds, interior bathrooms and showers, a warming kitchen, a computer lab, a health clinic and on-site services like employment training, though Wright said the planned layout is “subject to change.” “It’s good to see this facility come online and most certainly, the fact that it is at a full-time operation and not one where those that need assistance are rolled out front door first thing in the morning, but in fact are there where we actually can work with them to deal with the underlying problems,” said Fullerton Interim City Manager Allan Roeder. However, Wright said reservations will be required to book one of the beds in the center. Councilmembers Jesus Silva and Jennifer Fitzgerald both had questions regarding the reservation system. Silva asked how far in advance individuals would have to make reservations to have access to the shelter considering there are “no walk-ups.” Orange County Housing & Community Development Homelessness Prevention director Julia Bidwell did not provide a direct answer to the question but discussed how Mercy House is currently working with outreach teams on screening individuals and organizing

pickup locations. “It will just depend on what the vacancy rate ends up being on how long somebody might be waiting to get in there, but right now they’re building those partnerships,” Bidwell said. Fitzgerald asked whether reservations will have to come through separate service providers like Citynet or Coast-to-Coast, who she called “the people on the front line of service.” “It will all come through Mercy House though, that’s really the way it’s intended to be,” Bidwell said. However, she also said individuals will be able to make reservations through a currently undetermined system. During public comment, one Fullerton resident

Other homeowners, like Robert’s wife Liz Savage, found it to be the fault of the apartment residents for impacting the area because they did not account for the parking accommodations their rental contracts dictated. “If people do not plan for that, that is not the homeowners fault,” Liz Savage said. “Homeowners property values will go down because of this.” Residents of the apartments in the affected areas expressed their sympathy for the issues the homeowners face but explained their own difficulties on finding space to park. “I agree with the recommendation and I also agree with establishing an enforcement moratorium,” said apartment resident and student Janet Berreto. “I feel for the property owners, but honestly, I cannot come home from school at 10 p.m. and find parking if this is not agreed upon.” Fullerton resident Joshua Ferguson said the ban was “arbitrary” and while the ban’s time slot makes the area easier for police to regulate, the problem of early morning crime was not alleviated by parking regulations. “Most of the arguments against overnight parking have nothing to do with the actual three-hour window that exists,” Ferguson said. “These

parking spaces are not owned by the property owners. They are not owned by the apartments. They are a public right of way. They belong to everybody.” Multiple speakers said the implementation of a neighborhood watch may be a better solution to regulate the crime in the area without harming residents who wish to park in front of their homes or apartments. “I like the idea of the neighborhood watch. It might even be expanded. I would ask the apartment owners to try to take the lead,” said Councilman Doug Chafee. The council unanimously voted to authorize the Transportation and Circulation Commission “to appoint an ad hoc Overnight Parking Advisory Subcommittee of no more than three members to conduct a study, including an extensive community engagement process, of the city’s existing overnight parking policies and develop recommendations for revisions.” “I can see both sides and it is a tough one. I think together we will find a solution that will work for the community,” Silva said. “I like the idea that we are going to do a study to see what we can do to alleviate some of these issues and concerns.” In a 3-2 vote, the council showed their favor of revisiting the issue at its next meeting

with an ordinance that could potentially establish an “enforcement moratorium on overnight parking.” Fitzgerald said she chose to vote against creating an ordinance that would lead to an enforcement moratorium because she said she “does not think it is fair” to the people of Fullerton and said it is the council’s responsibility to deal with parking issues on a “caseby-case basis.” “It needs a community-wide discussion and I am confident that if we work together we can find areas of agreement and a path forward,” Fitzgerald said. The enforcement moratorium would halt the Fullerton Police Department from ticketing cars parked on city streets during the study period. Mayor Whitaker said the problem has evolved from residents playing “musical chairs” by waking up early to move their cars during the ban’s three-hour window to the other city-impact issues presented at the meeting that he said have probably been “festering for a long time.” “I am curious about what more information can be had from the study on the overflow from commercial properties into residential areas and whether there would be ways of helping to deter that,” Whitaker said. The next meeting is set for April 4.

expressed concern with the increase of “transient activity” along the intersection of Orangethorpe and Magnolia, as well as around the 91 and 5 freeway underpasses. She also said she is concerned with the garbage and debris left in an area by the homeless and hopes the new shelter will address this problem. Friends for Liberal Fullerton member Jane Rands said the issue of garbage being left behind is often a result of people having “no other option” and said the 100 beds that will be available through Phase one won’t be enough, especially with the temporary shelters closing. “We’ve been sort of

allocated a responsibility of 300 homeless people just in our city alone, so we know that the shelter, while it will help a number of people, can’t help everybody,” Rands said. Rands said the Fullerton City Council should also address a law allowing police officers to ticket people for sleeping in public places, as she said the Department of Justice released a statement in 2015 mentioning it would be found unconstitutional in a test case. “I would like to ask a courageous Councilmember up here who is truly compassionate and does care about homeless people to consider not criminalizing homeless people and putting them into

that situation of beginning to criminalize them and then making their situation worse in life,” Rands said. Wright said that homelessness is a statewide problem with no single cause and no single solution, but that the shelter is a step in the right direction. “Having had the opportunity to work with Ms. Bidwell and her staff and the other providers, it is gratifying to see them all pointing in the same direction,” Roeder said. “That’s really essential for the entire county because it is not a city-by-city issue, and I do think we’re seeing a kind of collaboration that we have needed for quite some time.”

As visitors first enter the exhibit, they are introduced to a visual history of women and tattoos in California as told through informational plaques and photos of important figures. Just outside of the main entrance is a large image of Maud Wagner, whose arms and chest are shown covered in tattoos in a black and white photograph. “I really like the picture of Maud Wagner, because she is dressed in this Victorian Garb, the garb of a lady, but the tattoos give this sense of rebellion,” said Shayna Nuzzo, a student who helped with the layout of the exhibit. “Even during this time of strictness and having to be austere, she continues to rebel against those standards that society has placed on her.” The exhibit offers students both the opportunity to go through the process of installing and deinstalling something that was already curated. “Tattooed and Tenacious” is not just about the history of tattoos, but also about current tattoo art. A mannequin torso features combined works from numerous contemporary female tattoo artists sprawled across it, posing as an important reminder that tattoo history is ongoing. “There have been women participating in this sub-culture for a very long time, and most of us didn’t even know anything about it,” said Trish Campbell, who is adjunct faculty in the division of anthropology and the exhibit coordinator in the Pollak Library. “It can let us know another aspect of California history, tattoo history and culture.” The exhibit ends with a wall of blank white paper, which is expected to be

spread with the tattoo designs of visitors who go to “Tattooed and Tenacious.” It allows students to intermingle different designs, leading to a large collaborative piece not unlike that of the mannequin, but with a more casual array of artists. The practicum in the class not only establishes the foundation of curation for students but also had its own foundation in one woman with an interest in tattoos. “The exhibit came out of Amy’s research and it was something that she was interested in terms of California history,” Campbell said. “One of the things that captured my imagination when I first read about it was that tattoos are not unique to California. It is not unique to the United States. It is a global phenomenon, and it has become something more than what it was.”

The exhibit included many historical facts about tattooing in California and the women who were a part of the movement. While many of the pieces came from Exhibit Envoy, some students involved with “Tattooed and Tenacious” added new material.

‘Big Little Lies’ has real truths to tell

HBO miniseries portrayal of Celeste is disturbing and deep.

DARLENE CASAS Daily Titan She applies makeup on her neck. She wears longsleeved blouses and sweaters to cover up the bruises on her arm. But nothing can cover up her paranoia. Nothing ameliorates Celeste’s growing fear of her abusive husband in the latest episodes of HBO’s new miniseries “Big Little Lies.” This melodrama unwinds the lives of three women living in Monterey, Calif. Each woman is living with a skeleton in her closet. Eventually, they all wind up being connected to a murder. Who gets murdered remains a mystery, but members of their community do not shy away from revealing all the gossip around Madeline (played by Reese Witherspoon), Jane (played by Shailene Woodley) and Celeste (played by Nicole Kidman).

A blonde, a brunette and a redhead, they are no Powerpuff Girls. This trio of mothers do seek power in their own way. What this series lacks in ethnoracial diversity it makes up in its portrayal of various forms of sexist oppressions—most disturbingly, different forms of abuse. Each woman has an intriguing storyline, but none tears the viewer’s heart as much as watching Celeste living with domestic violence, sometimes being aroused by it. Celeste knows her abuse is wrong, but she hides her fears and anger under a powerful delusion. It is the delusion of how a perfect family is supposed to look like. The dominant narrative of the perfect American middle-class home is so powerful that it is one of the reason’s Celeste finds it difficult to even talk about her situation. This is evident during a scene in the fifth episode of the series “Once Bitten,” where she explains to her therapist why she doesn’t leave her husband Perry, whom she still loves. A reason that stops her from leaving is everything they built together, their twin sons and their elegant home with the shoreline view. But that view only illustrates the surface of their home. Underneath the view of this beautiful married

couple are tides of aggression and pain. This episode does a phenomenal job in depicting the horrific nature of her abuse through quick flashbacks. These short silent waves of violent outbreaks are long enough to incite gasps and short enough to allow distraught viewers to catch their breath. As Celeste continues to cover up her husband’s aggressive behavior, more brief flashback scenes appear. Scenes of him swinging at her and strangling her are silent waves that drag viewers in an emotional reel. When her therapist asks her if she ever fears that he will kill her, she responds by saying, “never.” But a scene of her struggling to breathe as Perry pushes her head on the couch and chokes her is what viewers see. Any second longer and I was about to turn off the television at that moment. But people living with domestic violence do not get the luxury of simply turning it off if it gets too intense. Sometimes unforeseen circumstances makes it hard for the person to leave. What the series does well is portray how abuse can happen to anyone regardless of race, socioeconomic status or level of education. It happened to Celeste: a successful lawyer, a loving mother and a beautiful person. It is a beauty that

While the new HBO miniseries “Big Little Lies” has effective storylines for its entire cast, one of the ones that hits the hardest is that of Nicole Kidman’s character Celeste and the realistic abuse she endures.

agitates her husband Perry as he tries to control her every move. In the episode “Push Comes to Shoves,” Celeste helps her friend Madeline in a legal battle to allow her community play to be featured. After the meeting, Celeste said in her last six years of being a housewife; she had not felt so alive. Staying at home does not fulfill her as much as practicing her profession, a predicament that reminds me of Betty Friedan’s “The Feminine Mystique.” A

book about the deprivations of middle-class white women who stayed at home. Friedan argues that encouraging women to exercise their full potential through education and careers will abolish this issue. However, Celeste did all that, and she forewent her career for her family. What does it say about our culture to see this quandary keep appearing? An issue women faced during the 1960s (when “The Feminine Mystique” was published) arises in a story that takes place in

the present. Problems that stirred up second-wave feminism have yet to be absolved. Though Celeste does not seem to have any plans to overthrow this idea, her abusive relationship adds a complex layer to this obstacle. Celeste is too afraid to tell her husband about her wish to return to work, and too petrified to see his reaction. She is too nervous to reveal that she is drowning in a sea of abuse as she maintains the appearance of her family being like a beautiful ocean view.

The core gameplay of “Nier: Automata” is a hodgepodge of various genres that shouldn’t work together yet somehow fit into a beautifully strange puzzle: one part bullet-hell, one part “Dark Souls” homage, two parts RPG, one part infrequent side-scroller and the rest from the spectacle fighter genre Platinum Games is best known for. Players take on the role of an android 2B, short for YoRHa No. 2 Type B, and her partner 9S as they fight against the machines that nearly drove mankind extinct, forcing humanity to hide on the Moon. The android nature of 2B makes for a clever way to explain some core game mechanics. One example is player death. When the player dies,

they leave behind a body and can attempt to retrieve any data left behind in the broken husk. If online features are activated, these corpses will also populate other player’s games and vice versa. Finding bodies from other players can be used to gain temporary buffs or can be repaired to revive the android for combat assistance over a short duration. Intense action combat is the main draw to the game. Both 2B and opponents she faces use either light or heavy attacks and can string together combos. The staple of the “Drakengard” series–the bullet-hell nature of projectile attacks used by enemies–makes a comeback. Enemies will shower 2B with projectiles that can be destroyed with light or heavy attacks, depending on the color of the projectile. One of the areas “Nier:

Automata” really shines is in all the little touches that could be easily overlooked. Players can upgrade and augment 2B’s abilities through a Chip Plug-in system. By default, there is an assortment of chips already installed which relate to various HUD features in the game. In other titles the chips were just a cute nod to 2B’s android nature and explain why the player has a HUD. But “Nier: Automata” is a little more clever than that. The player can remove, or even permanently sell, those HUD feature chips to make the game more challenging. One of the chips the player can sell leads to the shortest, and possibly funniest, ending of the 26 possible: selling 2B’s core operating system chip. Presentation is another area where “Nier: Automata”

excels. Visually, the game is a real treat. Characters are crisply animated and each zone has a distinct look to it; be it the desolate city ruins, oppressive abandoned oil rig or vibrant amusement park region. Many of the areas feature predetermined camera work to give the player the best possible view of a scene or area. Keiichi Okabe, the composer for the previous “Nier” title, returned to make another stellar soundtrack that mixes haunting vocals, symphonic scores and synthesized instruments. “Nier: Automata” was released for PlayStation 4 on March 7 with a PC version released last Friday; the PC port currently needs a large “buyer beware” warning. On PC, the game has infrequent crashes and AMD video card users are reporting monotone screen locks. The crashing issue is

especially troublesome since there is no autosave functionality in “Nier: Automata.” Cutscenes are locked to 30 frames per second while the main gameplay is locked at 60 frames per second. Playing in fullscreen mode will force the game to run in 720p resolution and upscale, regardless of what the player has set as their native screen resolution. Given the problems on PC, the PS4 version is definitely the way to go if possible. Otherwise, waiting for a patch in a few weeks to hopefully fix the major issues on PC is advised. Despite the issues on the PC version, none of them were enough to deter the enjoyable gameplay. “Nier: Automata” is definitely worth picking up for anyone that enjoys games like “Bayonetta” or is just hungry for a new RPG with a bit of action to it.

I was told firing squad.

Injection?

CATHRYN EDWARDS / DAILY TITAN

Death penalty needs consistent method Lethal injections are the best option, but need to be updated.

ASHLYN RAMIREZ Daily Titan

botched execution isn’t all that uncommon in America, thanks to the instability of state laws regarding the death penalty. Instead of forcing certain inmates to

suffer, essentially instituting torture, one efficient and quick method to execute prisoners needs to be determined. With 32 states having one of five forms of the death penalty, according to Statistic Brain, the chances of something going wrong are higher than Americans should accept. While mismanaged executions account for nearly 3 percent of all executions, according to deathpenaltyinfo.org, there are still 276 deaths recorded over 120 years that have gone horribly wrong considering all methods of execution. The death penalty should continue to use lethal injection, but without the cocktail of drugs used that make people suffer.

Seventy-five people have suffered from botched lethal injections, according to Sarat, which is less than every other execution method. While America is clearly on the right path by mainly using lethal injections, the formula needs to be improved. The problem with a random mix of drugs is that every person is different in terms of height, weight and tolerance. There’s no way to tell which drugs will cause the desired effect needed. In 1994, a prison inmate suffered for 13 minutes after a lethal injection of mixed drugs in Alabama, according to Vice News. The same article reports that two lengthy

deaths happened in Oklahoma in 2014. The drug cocktail used for all three contained the same failed drug of midazolam, Vice reported. If America is going to continue executing death row inmates, we need a more sound way to humanely kill dangerous criminals. One strong sedative drug that would simply put them to sleep forever is the ideal choice for lethal injection. While those on death row have committed terrible crimes, they do not deserve to suffer, often in front of others. Lethal injections need to be quick, painless and must continue to be the main way to execute death row inmates. With Mississippi

considering renewing the use of a firing squad and gas chambers, according to the Washington Examiner, a new and blanket regulation and strict enforcement of those regulations needs to become the standard. America shouldn’t put people to death in such a barbaric manner. Death by firing squad is a gruesome way to die, not to mention costly. The 2010 execution of Ronnie Lee Gardner by firing squad cost Utah about $165,000, according to the Salt Lake Tribune. For comparison, Vice reported that the cost of the tools needed to end a person’s life with pentobarbital, a powerful sedative, costs around $861.60. This is a drop in the bucket

compared to the firing squad method. While lethal injections are by far the best option, they still need major improvements. Considering there is a record of a lethal injections failing for over 100 years, the federal government should’ve taken that as a hint to figure out something better than a drug cocktail to kill someone. With that in mind, it makes sense that one strong sedative would be the most humane way for a first-world country to punish inmates on death row. It’s imperative to reign with an iron fist of justice, but the United States should do so with consistency and humanity.

Internet outrage never finds the proper solution Anger and rage don’t work well on the web.

AMBER HAMILTON Daily Titan

nternet outrage is nothing new, but recent events show how ridiculous and pointless impotent outrage has become. Recently, Nintendo’s “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” became the best-selling launch title in the company’s history. But fan outrage over critics being too critical is telling

of the way society handles adversity these days. What occurred became a microcosm of internet outrage. Last week, the Metacritic page for “Breath of the Wild” was attacked, or “brigaded,” by anonymous users that deemed the score of 98 as too high. Days later, more outrage sprung up when video game critic Jim Sterling’s harsh review brought down the Metacritic score to a still respectable 97. Sterling’s website was shut down by a flood of repeated DDOS attacks on March 12, which caused fatal mass traffic to a website, in response to the review. Nothing positive came from the backlash against the high score other than Metacritic removing all the user scores submitted during the attack; nothing negative happened to Jim

Sterling other than a minor inconvenience by disrupting his website. The denizens of the web love to gather their torches and pitchforks at the drop of a hat. Be it Donald Trump’s newest tweet, Emma Watson’s provocative photoshoot, or any number of topics that arise “social justice warriors” or “militant feminists.” But has this outrage ever accomplished anything? Trump still got elected president, Watson is still a prominent feminist role model and Sterling still has a platform to spread his opinions. Just as we have the “Streisand Effect” to explain how attempting to bury something online brings it further into the light, we need something like an “outrage effect.” Maybe the “Sterling Effect?” Rampant outrage, far more often, has

the opposite effect than intended. After the DDOS attacks on Sterling’s site, the daily subscriber rates on his Youtube channel increased past their weekly averages, and his daily viewership continues to climb. The attack on Metacritic’s scores didn’t last more than a day or prevent “Breath of the Wild” from garnering more critical acclaim. One of the most notable cases of the “Sterling Effect” in recent history is the rise of conservative news outlet Breitbart. After stories posted by Breitbart drew attention and the fires of outrage began to burn, the usage of Breitbart News saw a sharp incline, sometimes reaching over 300 million page views in a single month, according to the Breitbart statistics. Breitbart learned to stoke the outrage of the internet

and use it to become the most popular political social media outlet, according to analytics conducted by website NewsWhip. Breitbart has been around since 2008, but it wasn’t until April 2016 when the Southern Poverty Law Center brought them to the attention of most Americans by insinuating their possible ties to the “alt-right” conservative movement. Stephen K. Bannon, the former executive chair of Breitbart, is now the senior presidential adviser. Was it really worth the internet getting so upset about a website that had barely 8 million unique visitors a month in 2014 about ties to a fringe group that now reaches over 95 million page views monthly? Because of the inverse effect of internet backlash, America has been driven to a dark era of “fake

news” claims being thrown around indiscriminately and minority politics dominating the main stage. The constant outrage against Trump’s past deeds, his torrent of unpresidential speech and behavior unbefitting for a political nominee is what allowed him to win. All outrage does is pour fuel on a fire and tears will not extinguish the flame. People need to learn that getting upset about something is never the solution; it should merely be a reason to get involved. The outrage over American politics hasn’t gone away. However, now that America is stuck with Trump, social and political activism has been on a sharp incline, especially among college students. Americans may finally be learning the truth in the old saying “you can’t fight fire with fire.”

SPORTS Titans dominate Toreros in San Diego PAGE 8 MARCH 22, 2017 WEDNESDAY

Fullerton extends its win streak to eight straight games. BRYANT FREESE Daily Titan

With the Toreros bearing down on the Titans like a raging bull, Cal State Fullerton baseball (15-5) posted five runs late in the game to take a decisive 9-2 lead and extend its winning streak to eight straight games. After a wild pitch allowed runners to advance to second and third base, freshman Zach Wiesz singled up the middle to drive in Hank LoForte and Chris Hudgins to build on the Titans’ 7-2 lead in the eight. Fellow freshman Zach Weller hit a tworun home to drive in Wiesz with a full count at the plate. Weller posted three RBIs in two at-bats against San Diego. Weller has only had three plate appearances in the previous 19 games of the season, recording two strikeouts and one walk. Taylor Bryant, Fullerton’s leading hitter and on-base percentage leader, earned

a spot at first after being walked, igniting the Titans’ prolific inning. Designated hitter and backup catcher Nico Pacheco advanced Bryant to second with a single to left field. Veteran catcher Chris Hudgins stepped to the plate and ripped a double to left center field, driving in Bryant from second to put Fullerton on the board first. The Titans were not done there as Weller flied out to right field, enabling Pacheco to tag up and score from third. The San Diego pitchers struggled under pressure, allowing Hudgins to advance to third on a wild pitch. One batter later, right fielder Hunter Cullen who is filling in for Ruben Cardenas due to a lower-back injury that he is day-to-day with, hit a tworun homer to right field to put the Titans up 4-0 heading into the bottom of the second inning. The Toreros attempted a comeback in the bottom of the sixth inning when Roman Garcia hit a two RBI double down the left field line to score Ryan

bottom of the eighth inning to seal the deal for the Titans, racking up their 11th win in the last 12 games. Fullerton proved its worthiness of the No. 5 ranking in the country, according

to Baseball America, while thumping the No. 23 team in the country on D1 Baseball’s top-25 list. San Diego is not ranked on Baseball America’s top25 rankings.
