					<description><![CDATA[The Prof is always very shrewd -- he seems to have been ahead of most press reports.

The Bloodletting and Wilding Is Part of An Agenda To Tear Down The Country
Posted by William A. Jacobson	   
Wednesday, &lt;b&gt;June 3,&lt;/b&gt; 2020 at 9:05pm 
&quot;The next push is to defund the police.&quot;

No amount of evidence will convince people whose minds are made up.
https://legalinsurrection.com/2020/06/reminder-hands-up-dont-shoot-is-a-fabricated-narrative-from-the-michael-brown-case/

&lt;blockquote&gt;But it was all a lie. Brown wasn’t surrendering and didn’t say don’t shoot. And he wasn’t a victim of police misconduct. Rather than the “Gentle Giant” he was portrayed at in the media, he sucker punched Wilson while Wilson sat in his police car, tried to grab Wilson’s service pistol, and was shot when he charged Wilson a second time.

On March 5, 2015, Andrew Branca wrote here, Even DOJ Admits: “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” An Utter Lie:
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Even if some reporter did mention that little caveat, the spin would undoubtedly be to neglect to mention that it was Obama&#039;s DOJ making that determination.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is not at all surprising, but it’s tremendously disturbing

I guess when its in the news... when i reported from the front line of a college i worked for before being laid off after 15 years... it wasnt...  not really.. 

but they will eventually force the form to fit the container they make
when that happens, they may regret the larger, better skilled monster they create]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;Maybe she’s just virtue signaling now so the crocodile doesn’t eat her.&lt;/i&gt;

She&#039;s about 10 years from retirement and I think she has tenure. 


They apparently hired her away from Northwestern.  I don&#039;t remember the young Sandy Babcock as being a political sectary (as opposed to a person with an interest in political questions). I also don&#039;t recall she spoke four foreign languages, either, but she insists on her page she does.  She seems to have devoted almost no time to ordinary legal work.  She was staff counsel in this and that nonprofit lawfare operation before she landed an academic berth.  

Evidently, she&#039;s appended to some fellow named Margulies who is also a political sectary.  Evidently, they were married in 1996, but the press release announcing their arrival at Cornell Law School omitted any reference to that; the acknowledgements in his books suggest they have no children.  Margulies does not admit to whatever he was doing to earn a living between 1988 and 2006.  He shuffled around from Washington, to Columbia (SC) to Austin (Tx), to Minneapolis to Chicago.   Ordinarily, law schools are loath to hire anyone who has spent much time as a working lawyer.  But, I guess they make exceptions for tiresome red-haze characters.  He was given a joint appointment in the Government department at the college of arts and sciences, even though he has no research degree. Evidently, he&#039;s a 2d generation lawyer and his father had a mess of positions in the federal government from 1956 until some point past 1983; his father was at age 93 still alive in 2018.  

My guess would be that she and her husband are the linchpin of the problem.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I already wrote before coming here and I WAS NOT polite and kindly. But I do not look forward to the long distant day when &quot;polite and kindly&quot; writers may wish they had been more aggressive. 

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin&#039;s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn&#039;t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
