Lynch mob redux
The Herald Sun has a story today on former Duke lacrosse coach Larry* Mike Pressler's revised slander suit against the University. Seems that calling his successor a "mensch" is somehow slanderous. Well, that's for the lawyers, judges, and juries to decide, i guess.
But what i noticed is someone calling himself "pacfandave" making this claim:
emphasis added.
If i didn't know better i'd swear there was a bunch of whiny ass titty babies gathering together on a website somewhere working themselves up into a lather about how their victimization status is so clearly more victimization statusy than anybody else's, that anytime something about this case appears on the interwebs, they have to take turns jumping up and down and throwing the term "lynch mob" into the discussion, just to make sure everybody else knows that they are more victimy than anyone else ever.
What's that?
Oh.

* Damn, i hate when i do that.

Brodhead is nothing more than a figurehead, a shill who takes his marching orders from the Gang of 88, who formed the lacrosse players lynch mob and put him out in front to parrot their vitriolic and baseless rant.

It's MIKE Pressler. Larry is a former U.S. Senator. I get them mixed up all the time too.

I think they had a special meeting or party or something to learn how to spell "the lacrosse players lynch mob" correctly.
Or maybe, maybe they were coached into getting the phrase right every time, so it always came out like "the lacrosse players lynch mob"?
i'm the other anonymous, btw

The WATB reporter wrote what he thought would please the management and readers, and would be politically correct, instead of actually researching the facts for his article.
Describes perfectly Bob Ashley and his H-S reporters coverage of the case.
