When Ironman offers himself to a goat it's...
Just another day, and I just can't stop having sex with animals no matter how hard I try. I'm so lonely, so lonely.
Johnson notes that this decision might actually represent a setback for victims' rights organizations, since it incentivizes accused students to sue their accusers in addition to their colleges:
Ironically, whatever minor assistance the ruling might have to frustrating the Amherst student's quest for justice, the victory might be a Pyrrhic one for the accusers' rights movement as a whole. Judge Robart sent a message that the only way an accused student can obtain relevant evidence involving his accuser is—as a handful of accused students have done—to sue his accuser as well as the college. Expect more accusers to be added to future lawsuits as a result.
Johnson is a co-author of The Campus Rape Frenzy, a new book about the death of due process on college campuses. He calls the Amherst case "perhaps the most egregiously unfair" one he has covered. Who could disagree?
He has not sued Jones, although maybe he should have. As part of his case against Amherst, Doe's legal team subpoenaed Jones to testify at the trial and turn over certain documents and records of statements she made about the alleged assault. Jones refused to cooperate.
And, according to Judge Robart's ruling, she doesn't have to:
An in-person deposition of boundless scope would impose a substantial burden on Ms. Jones. (Subpoena at 1; see also Resp. at 7 ("Until a deposition begins, it is very difficult to know where it will lead and impossible to predict all the topics that may be explored with a witness.").) The deposition would force Ms. Jones to relive a night in which she asserts Mr. Doe sexually assaulted her. (See, e.g., Clune Decl. ¶ 3, Ex. 4; Resp. at 6-7.) It would also reraise the subsequent investigation, hearing, and period of publicity that Ms. Jones has endured. (Id. ¶ 3, Ex. 5 at 11-12; Am. Compl. ¶¶ 54, 56.) It takes no leap of logic to reason that a live deposition would impose emotional and psychological trauma upon Ms. Jones.
Robart essentially argues that since Doe isn't suing Jones directly, he has no right to involve her in his case against Amherst. He also argues that Amherst is in possession of the relevant documents, and thus Jones's involvement is unnecessary. But, as KC Johnson explains, that isn't quite right:
Yet much of the requested material couldn't come from Amherst employees. For instance, a critical aspect of the accused student's case is the basic unfairness of an adjudication that went forward under the false premise that A.S. had not reduced anything about the incident to writing. So the subpoena asked A.S. for "all communications, including text messages or emails, between you and anyone else on February 5, 2012." The only conceivable source of this material would be A.S., not any Amherst employees.
Interesting segment on Tucker Carlson on Fox that you will never see on left wing media outlets.
ESPN2 = FAKE NEWS
None of the scores are correct.
They numbers were made up last week.
Where is the list of those that took part in any violence,by name? Doesn't exist
Where is the list of those that took part in any violence & received money,by name? Doesn't exist.
The Daily Caller,YOU ARE FAKE NEWS!

Resist SOCIALIST FILTH!
10# ass will call the police,fire department when he needs them & has paid nothing in taxes compared to what it cost to maintain these SOCIALIST PROGRAMS.
How much road could be constructed & maintained on what he's paid in taxes? 50 feet?
How much other infrastructure do SOCIALISTS enjoy at no real cost to them.
It's OK,he's happy to benefit from everyone elses' hard earned tax dollars.
I use these same programs.I know 'em when I see 'em.
Patrick,got the list of those SNOWFLAKES that "IGNORE" by name?
When Sean Spicer pulls out a flamethrower at the next press conference, and turns the so-called journalists into baco bits, it will smell like justice!
Can he still issue Presidential Edicts through that little sliding window on the rubber room door?
This happened at my university :/.... "Regret equals rape" they are brainwashing these youbg women
He'll write his edicts on the rubber room walls with his nose dipped in feces.
You really can't keep a good narcissist down.
Euthanizing would put america out of it's misery.
Trump or the american people,works
Trumpligula will convey his edicts in guttural, grunting morse code dots and dashes, using his rolling eyes for punctuation. MAGA!
"Stocks rallied sharply after President Donald Trump won the U.S. election, amid higher prospects of corporate tax cuts, deregulation and government spending. The major U.S. indexes have recently held around all-time highs as investors await for more details on the administration's policies."
And, as if on cue, Ironman no longer cares about deficits and debt.
I thought it was rhetorical. The stock market under Obama performed amazingly well. I mean historically well. The fact that you don't realize this is actually pretty funny.
"Which is why I asked about the last 2 YEARS under Obama (when the money injection STOPPED), and you just decided to play with your Straw Man delusions again."
It did? Please show me the start and stop of the money injection.
APOCALYPSEFUCK_is_ADORABLE says
EFFEMINATE METROSEXUAL IMBECILE TRUMPLIGULA! IS REALLY, REALLY INTO HANGING NEW DRAPES!
Does the carpet match the drapes?
What am I saying? Everyone just has bare floors nowadays.
I expect nothing less than solid gold drapes in the oval office. Nothing says Trump like solid gold.
Did you splice in those screams of agony as an IHL splattered your balls, or was that creative editing?
...and Maxine just said that Putin invaded Korea; me thinks the Democratic leadership is getting just a bit too old to be effective in office, just look at the results of the last election how ineffective they were.
Also makes me think that serving in office for a long period of time is not good or healthy for the mind.
Look at the districts they come from, Waters unfortunately narrowly got reelected because of changing demographics. Pelosi would have to fuck as bad as Franks not to get reelected.
So was but packer Barney, not that I want a repeat of the housing crises but it would be nice to see these two mutts gone. Which begs the question who would replace them.
Ruh Roh
Robert Kennedy's 32-year-old grandson wins House race to replace Barney Frank
Pence and Bannon are running the country. Trump is just there to MAGA, and A can't be G without fabulously spectacular drapes.
CONFUSION:
IRAQ HAS WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION!
Republicans got NUTIN" even though they ate NUTS.
Wow that's amazing, $1.1T for car loans!?!?
And your price ordering needs to be corrected above when you said "respectively"
both car and student debt hit all time highs of $1.407 trillion and $1.11 trillion, respectively.
I thought about buying a new Audi, but then they put out that dumb ass feminist commercial.
I've been wondering when this nonsense would stop. Ten years ago, you could get a great truck for mid 20s, where as the same truck runs you 40k now.
Granted they have more features, but not double the price.
Can't wait for this bubble to pop.
“We’ve seen nothing where we can where — where I can work with President Bush on…â€
The first honest statement I've ever heard from a politician. As a follow up I'd like to announce I'm at an impasse with Genghis Khan.
AP Fact-Checks
AP is msm fake news. You've posted about it again and again. How is it you think it's real news this one time? Oh right, It's fact checking real news if you agree and fake news if you don't. I would expect no less from you.
