Judge Rules in Favor of Student Accused of 'Racist, Threatening Language'
2018-01-09
[PJMedia] A student at the University of Vermont can breathe a little easier after a judge ruled in his favor. Wesley Richter had been accused of "explicitly racist and threatening language" against both black students at the school and the school's diversity initiatives.

...Richter was apparently having a phone conversation in the library multimedia room with his mother when he made the statement, one that hasn't been released to the public. There were allegedly three witnesses. One reported it. Of the other two, one refused to cooperate with investigators and the other said the comments didn't happen.
Paging Mr Jughashvili. Mr Ioseb Jughashvili, come to the white courtesy phone, please.

#4  That's not a win. A win would be the Chittenden County State's Attorney Sarah George being made to personally reimburse the defendant for his legal costs, and charges being filed against her for abuse of power.

#3  There is a big stink about a NFL football player using "racist taunts" during a game on Sunday.

So talking trash to an opponent in a football game has to be politically correct?

#2  The case should never have been prosecuted. They may have been butt-hurt by somthing said but get over it; the 1st Amendment is the law of the the land, not PC.
