re commonly attended by tens of thousands of partiers, including many who come from out of state. Following a non-political riot that developed at the 1996 Mifflin Street Block Party, it was forcibly canceled by the city, but was later reinstated. At the 2011 party, two people were stabbed, leading the city to consider banning the party. The city decided to allow it to continue in the future, under a zero-tolerance policy.
MTV's College Life[edit]
On April 13, 2009, MTV premiered the reality series College Life about the day-to-day lives of eight UW–Madison freshmen.[138] The show was created by UW–Madison alumnus David Wexler.[139] According to MTV,[140] the students did the filming for the series, but not the editing. During production, the university pulled its support of the show. Subsequently, a disclaimer was aired at the beginning of each episode stating that UW–Madison does not endorse the program. Eight episodes aired as of February 22, 2010.

In 2003, Human Rights Watch reported that FARC-EP shows no leniency to children because of their age, assigning minors the same duties as adults and sometimes requiring them to participate in executions or witness torture.[221]
Extrajudicial executions[edit]
FARC has consistently carried out attacks against civilians specifically targeting suspected supporters of paramilitary groups, political adversaries, journalists, local leaders, and members of certain indigenous groups since at least as early as 1994.[227] From 1994-1997 the region of Urabá in Antioquia department was the site of FARC attacks against civilians.[228] FARC has also executed civilians for failing to pay "war taxes" to their group.[229]
In 2001, Human Rights Watch (HRW) denounced that the FARC-EP had abducted and executed civilians accused of supporting paramilitary groups in the demilitarized zone and elsewhere, without providing any legal defense mechanisms to the suspects and generally refusing to give any information to relatives of the victims. The human rights NGO directly investigated three such cases and received additional information about over twenty possible executions during a visit to the zone.[230]
According to HRW, those extrajudicial executions would qualify as forced disappearances if they had been carried out by agents of the government or on its behalf, but nevertheless remained "blatant violations of the FARC-EP's obligations under international humanitarian law and in particular key provisions of article 4 of Protocol II, which protects against violence to the life, physical, and mental well-being of persons, torture, and ill-treatment."[230]
The Colombian human rights organization CINEP reported that FARC-EP killed an estimated total of 496 civilians during 2000.[230]
Use of gas cylinder mortars and landmines[edit]
The FARC-EP has employed a type of improvised mortars made from gas canisters (or cylinders), when launching attacks.
