Outrage of the Day
This is what happens when ideology and corruption rule in the courts and governments.
A federal judge has ordered one of Portland’s last furriers to pay nearly $97,000 in legal fees to the animal-rights protesters he has accused of destroying his family business. U.S. District Judge Michael Mosman ordered Gregg Schumacher and Schumacher Furs & Outerwear to cover $43,186 in legal fees to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals; $34,735 to In Defense of Animals; and $18,950 to protester Kevin Mieras, court records show.
...
“Although the (Schumachers) may have had meritorious claims against people whose names they did not know, or even against the City of Portland,” Mosman wrote, “they sued people against whom they had no evidence for $6.6 million, sought to restrict their First Amendment rights, and disparaged their reputations with accusations of criminal conduct, terrorist affiliations and responsibility for ‘shutting down’ a business whose financial solvency was questionable before the protesting activities began.”
They are terrorists. And much worse. But when your judges are fellow cranks, what do you expect?
I wonder who knows more about the law? A federal judge, or some guy with a blog?
