It was a performance the WWASP administrators put on for the judge.

One could ask. What pre tell are they afraid of in a case exposing their abuse against children.

They are really big performers.

I find it utterly amazing that france is *STILL* teaching this country about what freedom is and how to get it, over 200 years after the fact.
Ardent advocates of prohibition were obsessed by a zeal that bordered on fanaticism. They supported politicians who voted to outlaw liquor, no matter how much of it they privately consumed, and spurned politicians who voted against prohibition, no matter how sober they were personally.

Oh, but it is misguided. It's bound to be, coming from the French. Just ask any Algerian Frenchman.

But, again, any publicity is good publicity. I would expect it to take the tone of "See? Americans eat their young!" and to be used to paint us all w/ one broad brush. But, of course, if we tolerate this (and we do, have been for decades now) without complaint, then what do we deserve?

Good Americans, my friends and neighbors, if we can't clean this mess up ourselves (as we should have done long ago), then it looks like we're fated to have the French do it for us. Is there one among us who's willing to tolerate that kind of humiliation?



All of these comforting and reasonable things were taught by the ministers in their pulpits -- by teachers in Sunday schools and by parents at home. The children were victims. They were assaulted in the cradle -- in their mother's arms. Then, the schoolmaster carried on the war against their natural sense, and all the books they read were filled with the same impossible truths. The poor children were helpless. The atmosphere they breathed was filled with lies -- lies that mingled with their blood.
--Robert G. Ingersoll, American politician and lecturer

Nihilanthic:
:nworthy:
...it is worth discussing radical changes, not in the expectation that they will be adopted promptly but for two other reasons. One is to construct an ideal goal, so that incremental changes can be judged by whether they move the institutional structure toward or away from that ideal. The other reason is very different. It is so that if a crisis requiring or facilitating radical change does arise, alternatives will be available that have been carefully developed and fully explored."
