| Glenn Reynolds: A war on college men |
| 2015-09-14 |
| Last week, Rep. Jared Polis, a Colorado Democrat, suggested that even innocent students should be booted from campus if they were accused of sexual assault. According to Polis: "If there are 10 people who have been accused, and under a reasonable likelihood standard maybe one or two did it, it seems better to get rid of all 10 people." But, but, what if one of them is a son of a Democratic senator? That's completely different... So one of the longstanding traditions of American law -- that it is better to let 10 guilty men go free than to imprison one innocent -- has now been turned on its head. Under the Polis standard, it's basically the other way around. And here I thought that things like this went down with the late, unlamented SovU. |

| #1 The left continues to try to divide everyone by accusing everyone of having a war on each other. What's that old saying?: The Devil's greatest trick was convincing the world he didn't exist. Let me tell you, he is alive and well and resides within the Left. |
