well accroding to the tele. The students are free now to sue over their civil rights as the court has thrown out the bankruptcy protection.

Good for them and screw Nifong. He deserves everything he has coming.

more later....

Good, no doubt about it.

He caused a lot of pain for a lot of people. I'm sorry for his family, they didn't ask to go through this, but neither did those young men.

Sorry but his still doesn't cut it for me, sure he was a jerk.

But the underlying problem was that damn piece of work who cried rape, she can hide under the shield laws but i'm hoping that somewhere some civil action can be taken against her.

He is an idiot and deserves what he gets but she should not get a pass and so far sadly has done.

Now I'm not saying that she should get a pass but............. There is some sense of twisted irony in that he hitched his wagon to this case, fueled the racial fires, withheld evidence that would have damned his case and screwed those kids all to hell. I hope they mop up the courthouse with his ass when they are done with him. That case should have never moved forward and definitely should have been thrown out of court. However, when the race card is turned up.....look out. All sense flies out the window.:cursin g:

can you beleive I cannot find a link to the article I saw yesterday? wow....

RR; thats the famous Lib tolerance and sense of justice, (white+ rich) x minority=guilty.

ahh thank you my dear. your google is clearly better than my google...

as to the answer to the question- many many assholes- the duke admin. academia, and the gov. in the form of nifong- if the races were reversed , sharpton would not be wailing about Magnum whatever her name was, but a new Scottsboro boys scenario......that is because the predilection for thought amongst those brave souls is as my formula stipulates.

And, if that’s not bad enough, after the evidence is in, still, they cling to their positions. What paragons of society eh? Paragons who teach and admin. our kids...

You wouldn't believe how many times I've heard that..

I'll give you that there were more players than just Nifong in this story, however he was behind it. Two assholes, him and the girl who "accused". And if it comes out that policemen, etc. aided him in what he did, they are assholes too.

While I don't know every detail of this story (its been a while), I will say that while Duke may have jumped the gun in some peoples minds, they were probably working off the same intelligence that others were. Intelligence we now know was BS/misleading. I cant say I blame them too much. I mean...its three rich white boys who attend one of the best universities in the world being accused of raping a black stripper.

Not the best headline and even worse if its followed by "Duke allows the boys to stay, etc." They are going to want to look tough on them, especially if it comes out that the team has already had some trouble.

I don't know, IMO it isn't a liberal thing. Racial relations in this country seem FUBAR at times, and either way you cut it, shit like this does NOT help it.

realllly...so, whats your sign?

Okay fair enough, I DO understand the admin. wanting t wrap its hands around this thing from the git go, firing the coach canceling their season, in the early going , that’s one of those hindsight calls one can make against them, and I don’t fault them for that.

What I do fault them for is- allowing this to keep rolling allowing their faculty et al to become engrossed and in fact allow this bias to go unchallanged, and to this day they will not apologize, in any way shape or form.

The thing is Miranda, its because in my view they do have a bias, and they would not let the growing evidence that something was not quite right to interfere.

These are proff's are professionals, at en of the top 10 schools ion the country, critical thinking is supposed to be their bread and butter. If they got on the bandwagon early, okay as I said, no harm no foul, but as time and facts piled up, it became clear that a unbiased clear thinking person would have stfu and started listening and watching little more and took a step back, their drumbeat was long loud and consistent, right up till now. I cannot come up with a reason other than their innate bias's were stronger than their critical thinking skills and in fact their character and conscience. What price do they pay?

Or as one vindicated politician once said, “where did I go to get my reputation back”? They won’t even admit they were wrong, so there is no reputation to retrieve as far as I am concerned. These are folks teaching our kids, what happens when they run up against other facts they don’t agree with or have pejorative view of?

Lol, I'm sorry. You saying that reminded me of the shirt I saw a while back that said You Tube Myspace and i'll Google your Yahoo. I should have bought the damn thing.

I see where you're coming from and cant argue too hard with it. However, I don't like broadbrushing the whole deal as a "liberal thing". That's all.

Honestly, I'm curious as to just how big a shit storm the civil suits are going to cause. Not that they shouldn't sue, I absolutely agree that they should. I just wonder what more we are going to learn from them.
