SYNOPSIS OF FRENCH FRY RULING
Twelve year girl old broke well-known law against eating on Metro train system, even after being told it was not allowed by police. She ignored them, she was arrested. She filed a lawsuit against police.
So the french fry case is really just this court throwing out a frivolous lawsuit against the police who were enforcing a well-known law.

Probably true, but the Dems are spinning it as picking on and roughing up a little girl because of a french fry. Don't underestimate their ability to obscure the legal issues and try to make Roberts sound like a bully. I can hear it now (woman's voice in shocked tones): "Judge Roberts handcuffed a 12 year old girl for eating a french fry on a bus."
