Well hoorah!
Too bad the people responsible for decision making have yet to suffer any consequences (that we know of)
Got to love the irony.
I LOVE this story.
So, um, a bakery would be a private company, no? Why can't they censor or profile or do anything they want? Seems some private companies are more equal than others ....
The back story is two college thugs, thought it was their right to steal from the bakery. When the bakery owner filed charges with the police, Oberlin College backed the students calling the bakery racist and withdrawing their longterm support of their bakery products, thereby defaming the bakery. You can guess the race of the thieves, same race that always feels they are entitled to take what they want, causing financial damage to businesses. The college and the thieves apparently felt that their race entitled them to “harmlessly” take what they wanted. Most of the Oberlin College students come from wealthy families, are liberal, and feel entitled, I surmise from the newspaper reports. I am happy Oberlin College had to pay for defaming a small business, and wrongly backed the thieves instead of disciplining or expelling the students.
I feel like I have a 52% chance at guessing this right despite only having 13% of the information. They were black.
Yes.
A store is “a place of public accommodation” unlike a remote service provider like Twitter or an ISP. There is a legal definition for places of public accommodation that varies in detail from jurisdiction to jurisdiction but in general, there are facilities that must be provided and legal requirements that must be adhered to. It is, for instance, illegal to discriminate on race or religious grounds. This gets murky when the accommodation is offensive to the provider on moral or religious grounds, as we have seen in the wedding cake cases. So, it’s a private business and it’s not… The Oberlin college case, though was purely a case of defamation.
The private companies in bed with the government gets the same perks as a 21 year old blond at a lawfirm
Nice!
Too bad both guys are dead. Justice was slow on this one. Hopefully the family can heal and the college can pound sand.
What really makes this story appalling was the dean of students was out in front of Gibson's with a megaphone screaming "racism". Oberlin even posted a letter in a prominent location calling Gibson's "racist" for the incident. At least Oberlin was dumb enough to publicly smear Gibson's so defamation was easy enough to prove in court.
Nice!
I'd buy up as many developed properties in that town as possible, demolish the buildings, and obliterate their tax base..
That would have trained a lot of commie lib perverts.
So sad it took this long-the litigants didn’t live to see the win and the payout. I still want to know the names and where the thieves are today, what are they doing? Are they furthering their “careers” as Antifa members?
YAAAAAY!
Best be careful with joggers, jogging by. That was a spicy drive by.
hahah good
