Oberlin College in Ohio will have to pay a nearby bakery more than $11 million in damages because it libeled the store, tagging it as racist, and interfered with its business, a jury said on Friday.

Gibson's Bakery came under fire after Allyn Gibson, the owners' son, got into a physical altercation with a black student who reportedly tried shoplifting and using a fake ID at the store, The Chronicle-Telegram said. Two other black students got involved, appearing to prompt accusations of racial profiling.

The three students eventually pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges and read statements defending Allyn Gibson's right to detain them. They also read statements claiming that his actions weren't racially motivated, but within days of the incident, students were turning out for protests fueled by accusations of racist intent.

Oberlin and a hundred other Colleges and Universities deserve detail destruction and collapse. These have been the snake pit of the cultural war against our culture.

We have all seen it. Big and small, these institutions finance the vile people ready to bring down our nation and give them lifelong employment.

Gee, perhaps before they start selling buildings and property to pay for the judgment, they should make the tenured professors make up the difference.

According to reports, the insurance is unwilling to cover this. It might shit the school.

Maybe we could start a "Go Fuc# Me" account for them?

This makes my day! I sued Florida State University for their three years of bigotry, lies, fraud, and mistreatment toward me as a Veteran. We settled out of court, but those lying ratsh1t trash Criminoles had to eat well over 300K in legal fees for nearly 2 years of discovery and other related fees/costs. I say she the crap out of these lying and evil Stalinists in the university system!!!

I’d imagine that the school is shitting itself about now.

Actually they are right this minute plotting how to appeal, appeal and appeal some more. They will delay payment for years. The two older Gibsons will have passed on by the time any money changes hands.

The other alternative is that they will negotiate a reduced prompt settlement.
