Last Post on “We Love Yale Sluts”-gate…We Promise
Adam Solomon (Y '10), "Co-President of the Committe for Freedom," passes on to us photographic evidence of the work of a gang of debonair vigilantes. Here's the backstory.
After the jump -- more pictures!
Here was the original picture that started everything:
And here's another of the "vigilantes":
Finally, here's their letter to the YDN:
To the Editors,
I am delighted to inform you that the upstanding gentlemen of the Committee for
Freedom have taken matters into our own hands when it comes to defending the
honor of Yale's women.It is the opinion of the Committee for Freedom that the proper response to the
offensive actions of the Zeta Psi fraternity is the community enforcement of
social norms and not a lawsuit. We hope that the fraternity will interpret our
actions in the appropriately humorous light, and not decide to press charges.If you are aware of other groups that are interested in taking similar direct
action, please put them in touch with our Planning & Coordination Team at
cff.planning@gmail.com .Yours in Justice,
William Wilson (JE '09) & Adam Solomon (JE '10)
Co-Presidents of the Committee for Freedom

HEY satan HOW’S IT ? AH , COME ON EVERYONE LETS HEAR A BIG
” AH ” FOR THE IVY LEAGUE TURDS. AH POOR LITTLE PARAMECIUM SHIT, WALL STREET AIN’T GONNA HAVE NO JOBS FOR YOU THIS YEAR OR NEXT YEAR OR THE YEAR,,,.POOR GREEDY LITTLE DUMMIES WRECKED YOUR GRADUATION PARTY AND MADE CARLOS $ 60 BILLION FOR HIMSELF AND YOU IDIOTS MANAGED TO PIECE YOURSELF OFF A MEASLY FEW EL MILLION, HAH.
Don’t you just love capital letters, especially since they piss so many of you tykes off.
aRE yoU BORED YET ? Maybe one day if , not, you’ll never be as rich as Carlos Slim Helu, ha ha ha. Give it up you simpleton satan’s. Any ways you could sit around and devote more time to thinking of how to torture your neighbors, make money off it, kill them, and then lie about it. Oh shit, I forgot you do sit around determining which orifice you’d like to effeminize. Oh shit, I forgot about WWII and your daddys sitting around planning the scientific execution of 6 million Jews while nyc profited. Oh well lets all hoop none of you ever get rich, plutocratic fascist naziesque orwellian roveiannly infanticidal caligulesque mengelesque smiley faced sadistic self medicating sociopathic infantile lemming paramecium shit with grandiose desires of beastiality, and the oscar award goes to satan for the role of america.
January 27th, 2008 at 5:49 pm
Actually, christiananarchisti, there’s nothing grandiose about our “desires of bestiality” (took out the extra “a” for you, big shot). Most of us would be happy with just a lamb or two.
January 27th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
The boys in the new photo are much better looking, at least (or, well, most of them).
The Popeyes sign is hysterical.

GENTLEMEN AND LADIES OF IVY-GATE,
Do be aware that said Mr. Wilson is no upstanding MAN OF MERIT. Indeed, he is a known provocateur, convicted sodomite, man-about-town & peddler of myriad godlessnesses. Be wary & do not be seduced by THIS SVENGALI born of a scoundrel shylock and his rotten jezebel mistress. Ask even my wife, she will attest to my sincerity, and that I say this not in jest. This WILLIAM AUGUST WILSON will be the undoing of AMERICA and the noble spirit of COLUMBIA!
January 27th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Will Wilson sold his soul to the devil in return for the ability to speak 7 languages, and understand Goedel’s second theorem. Other than that, though, he’s a pretty chill guy.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:29 pm
Party of the Right (and thus the Committee for Freedom) is full of crack-smoking douchebags. And I’m a conservative. and Y11 is
January 27th, 2008 at 7:29 pm
Oh, come now. Will Wilson claims that no one on this planet but he knows how many languages he speaks. It’s part of his so-called mystique (and by “mystique” I mean “douchebaggery”).
January 27th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
i’m glad to see that at least somebody (even if they’re conservative) can find humor in all of this
January 27th, 2008 at 8:30 pm

January 27th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
Both groups look like humungous tools. I love that Will Wil and Adam Solomon “hope” Zeta Psi won’t press charges (read: kick their asses).
I wish I could give these guys some credit for outstanding senses of personal irony, but sadly the three-piece suits mean they’ve gone far too out of their way to actually think that what they’re doing is absurd. Goddamnit, Yale. Learn how to be self-aware.
January 27th, 2008 at 9:16 pm
@y10
Where is the humor?
January 27th, 2008 at 9:39 pm
@d10
i highly doubt that they actually take themselves as seriously as you think. and i can’t imagine anybody believing that this really qualifies as revenge.
January 27th, 2008 at 10:27 pm
Thee-piece suits are actually amazing.
Neither prank was terribly funny, but everyone looks so darn cute in this new one.
Additionally, certain young men in the Yale community just like excuses to dress up and wear bow ties- behavior of which I highly approve, and which no one should discourage.
Everyone needs to chill oooout.
January 27th, 2008 at 10:33 pm
DUDE THE POR IS ACTUALLY A BUNCH OF ZOMBIES
IM NOT KIDDING
January 27th, 2008 at 10:36 pm
awww, they’re so cute in their suits…
January 27th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
This is actually the least douchy thing this group has ever done. And we should really stop talking about WW (William August Wilson THE FOURTH, my darling, and the first was black) on this blog, it only feeds his overwhelming ego. Steve Kesten, now there’s a real man.
I want to know what book they’re holding: it had better be The Feminine Mystique. (ps undoing the spirit of columbia? is that the spirit where they all complain and move off campus after 2 years?)
January 27th, 2008 at 11:49 pm
The two guys farthest right (ha) in the second picture are hot, but what’s up with Will Wilson’s demonic eyes?
Plus, their sign is much spiffier than the original.

Aw, my boyz in action!!!

I am the original christianarchisti
January 28th, 2008 at 3:33 am
btw, the book is Burke.

I raise my glass. How about a song?
The second verse seems appropriate.

Though I always thought these guys (the “conservatives” who wear the bow ties, J Press scarves, etc) were always tools, seeing this picture makes me sort of miss them. Unique presence on campus. Excellent set of gentlemen these dudes are…

ummmm…..not funny. try a little harder next time douche bags.
January 28th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
It warms my heart to see that little dude in the front row (the one who shows up at all the wack-job christian rallies and talks about intelligent design) stand right next to will wilson (the self-proclaimed queer, a life choice he made to defend his NOGAYS email). Christian conservos and gays working in unity :))))

He was queer before NOGAYS. I’m just surprised that that didn’t tip more people off at the time to the fact that he didn’t write it and was taking the fall for someone else (hint: not Brimer, either).
January 28th, 2008 at 9:10 pm
everyone who cares knows about his deal with a certain P.A.P.O. III to take the fall for the e-mail in exchange for the chairmanship of the far-right organization both of them are involved in
January 28th, 2008 at 11:18 pm
1. I can’t believe people gossip about this stuff.
2. The NOGAYS incident was not actually intended to offend homosexual people, so an openly “queer” person orchestrating it is entirely feasible.
3. You people are ridiculous.
January 29th, 2008 at 1:56 am
How sad is it that I can identify the writers of at least half these comments?
January 29th, 2008 at 1:58 am
People got ExCommed, and had their names printed in the paper multiple times (damaging their chances of getting hired), for something they didn’t do. The fact that people talked about it may have had something to do with gossip, but it also had to do with justice.
January 29th, 2008 at 2:39 am
I was talking about how the chairmanship of parties in the YPU is determined, with regard to the gossip, which definitely has nothing to do with justice. :P

Just to clarify, this is in front of the Zeta Psi house; we weren’t there just, you know, because we were in the mood for chicken wings. I heard some confusion about that today.
February 28th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
“ummmm…..not funny. try a little harder next time douche bags.”
Hey, looks like you dropped something. Oh, look, it’s your sense of humor. You might need it for this article.
As for Will Wilson, I have it on good authority that he not only beats his siblings with a broken lamp every Christmas (it builds character), but also is at least the reincarnation of Rasputin if not an avatar of Satan Himself.
Still, nice bowtie.
March 10th, 2008 at 9:43 am
Some clarification is in order. Sadly, Boo (that’s Wilson shorthand for non-family members here)doesn’t come to xmas anymore. And not for beating us with a broken lamp- it was a stool anyhow and has since been replaced- but because he’s just, too, busy. And now we all see why.
May 18th, 2008 at 7:14 pm
Gentlemen, I find you all terribly good-looking. Bow ties + Pipes + Literature = supremely hot. I’m swooning.
Please tell me you’ll have a social gathering of some kind this coming fall and that you’ll invite me.
Yours,
Yale 2012
