		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The state Senate on Monday passed a bill that would make it a class E fel ony to place, draw or otherwise display a noose - on public or private property - and too bad about the First Amendment...&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It was Mrs. White, in the Dining Room, with the Rope.

		<description>Ms. Chapoutier,,, you should not lump all republicans as Christians and many are not. Furthermore, Its the Christian folk that seem to have more persecution then the Muslims do and thats natural cause Jesus said  True Christians will face persecution. Anyone saying as Jesus says that &quot;Iam the  Way,,,&quot; and only way to heaven will be branded as bigoted and hateful. I guess they would call Jesus hateful and bigoted too since He said He is the only way to heaven.</description>

I doubt pressto will respond to your link in his same flippant tone seeing that you provided evidence to prove your point.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Care to post a link on this?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This was indeed established through AP reporting mere days after the videotape was released (hat tip-chapoutier.)

I just don&#039;t understand why no statement has followed on any suspect who immediately ruled out possible involvement by the accuser.</description>

Care to post a link on this? 

Only person cleared see in these reports is that Professor Luthar was cleared. 

Again after reviewing the video tape the Police and University can identify WHO the suspects in the case are, but nothing had been reported on it.</description>

		<description>This is certainly an intriguing case.  Last we spoke, Chapoutier brought it to my attention that it was reported that the NYPD cleared Madonna of any wrong doing by  stating something like, &quot;our victim is a victim.&quot;

Such a certain statement (made less than a week after the incident occurred, and less than 3 days after the videotape was handed over)must imply that Madonna AND anyone sympathetic to her interests couldn&#039;t have been involved in the incident. Otherwise, Madonna could have craftily used someone else to hang the noose to gain her sympathy.  The NYPD seemed to have immediately ruled any of this out.

My next thought was that, the NYPD were also indicating that they had the goods on someone else who either had ill will for Madonna...or that the incident was a totally random incident.  

Now I learn that her ONE reported enemy, a fellow professor,  was quietly cleared.  Who does this leave as suspect?

Does anyone else find it curious that the NYPD were able to clear the main character of this story of any involvement, right out of the gates, without having any other apparent suspects or people of interest lined up, based on some sort of established evidence?</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s see, they&#039;ve had the security video for how long?  Anyone on it?  Ooops, someone who doesn&#039;t fill the narrative?  I think they&#039;ll discover the perp the same day Sandy Burglar takes his lie detector test.</description>

		<description>Yeah,
Let&#039;s see how this ultimately turns out.  However it turns out, I hope it&#039;s posted on the site.  One can look and B.O.R and his initial treating of the Shawn Hornbeck case to see where glib, conjecture and speculation can take you.</description>

		<description>If you have actual evidence that the Columbia incident or the UVA incidents were fabricated, then please step right up.  But you can&#039;t.  Because all you, or any of the other posters here, have is stupid conjecture based solely upon a handful of unfortunate incidents like GWU or the Claremont prof that were legitimate examples of race-baiting.

If you are going to argue that way, let me point you to the thousands of actual verifiable incidents of racism and race/hate crimes that occur every year.  

Your desire to view every incident through the lens of your war between the libtards/dimmocrats/commies/muslims/etc. versus the good upstanding Christian Republican blinds you in many ways, but specifically here to the fact that racism does exist and minorities are often the target of racial attacks from bad people.  Sometimes these crimes are not solved.  That is the simple, real life, explanation.  But it doesn&#039;t fit your script, so you ignore it.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Yeah, cause I know when I go out to perform illegal acts I like as many people around as possible. But maybe I am just a exhibitionist.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, you would think at least ONE of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2005/09/18/racist_incidents_unnerve_virginia_university/?rss_id=Boston+Globe+--+National+News&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;these racist acts &lt;/a&gt;would be solved and they would find a culprit.  But no, they never do.

The return is so good for liberals: Invent racist acts in order to prove there is racism in a society with very little of it.  Then we can have an orgy of nonstop denunciation of the racism of successful, capitalist Western Civilization.

Because liberals are moral relativists who have rejected absolute values of Western society, &lt;em&gt;inventing a crime &lt;/em&gt;isn&#039;t so bad if it proves their beliefs about the West.

Thus, we have Scott Beauchamp and all these racist incidents no one can corrobarate.</description>
