Typical leftists. Will never admit what they did was wrong. Everything is so unfair! Patriarchy! White privilege! Orange man bad!

Defense wanted to kill that family’s generational business.

Screw Oberlin College’s Leftist elites.

I don’t think the damages are high enough. Oberlin should be required to pay twice the amount.

“Defense wants damages reduced.”

I’ll bet.

The professors and administrators are running scared. A few years ago I believe it was Ayala where a husband professor spoke up for his wife who dared suggest perhaps a Halloween controversy could be avoided if students learned to live with some slight offens and free speech.

Hope this award stands and other colleges take note.

Its becoming obvious Oberlin has no remorse for what was done to Gibsons Market. None whatsoever.

this “is a First Amendment case about whether whether an institution can be held liable for the speech of its students.”

More lies from Oberlin. Once the Oberlin Dean of Students interjected herself the matter and the College canceled contracts with the bakery, it is no longer about the speech of students.

They may want to start the fund raising campaign now.

The Jury found against Oberlin. The Jury is the finder of fact.

That argument is settled. If Oberlin wants to reopen that argument, they are going to need a new trial.

Oberlin should face federal civil rights charges as well. Why let them off easy?

It’s absolutely not a First Amendment case. Not in any respect, and if their lawyers think it is, they are as wrong as can be. That defense should be thrown out on its ear.

It is not “the government” restricting Oberlin’s free speech rights. It is a slander and tortious interference case. They committed the offense, they produced the provable damages, and the damages are liklely permanent. Certainly longlasting.

It is entirely possible that Oberlin’s practices may violate federal laws that might include, but are not limited to:

<><> Title 18 U.S.C. §1341, Mail Fraud, 18 U.S.C.§1001, Presenting a False Document to an Agent of the US Government for funding (may involve several felonies and could include forgery);

<><> 18 U.S.C.§1027 False statements and concealment of facts in relation to documents required by ERISA enacted 1974 and other possible offenses including civil and/or criminal RICO violations.

<><> 18 U.S.C. §241(Conspiracies Against Civil Rights). Violation of Civil Rights under Color of law and conspiracy. Conspiring with others to violate 4th amendment rights.

<><> Possibly full investigations centering on RICO conspiracies under 18 U.S.C. §1962(c) could be warranted because (1) the persons (2) were employed by or associated with a public enterprise (3) that engaged in or affected interstate commerce and that (4) the persons operated or managed the enterprise (5) through a “pattern” (6) of racketeering activity, and (7) the taxpayers were injured by reason of the “pattern” of racketeering activity.

<><> Alleged Offenses could include Violation of Rights – which prohibits in relevant part, “two or more persons (from conspiring) to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District

<><> Title 18 U.S.C. §2 41 – Conspiracy Against Constitutional mandates in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of having so exercised the same . . .” See, 18 U.S.C. §241.

The Oberlin stance is that they are morally and intellectually superior to everyone else, especially some crass for profit business who do nothing but bake hot buns, in other words, the working class. Therefore, they should be immune for the consequences of their illegal behavior. Liberal arrogance on parade.

They’ll find an appeals judge who went to some uber-Liberal college to grant them relief.
