Seeing Red

Not me. The Social Justice Warriors.

You see, the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education has decided to respond to the wave of false rape accusations on college campuses by branching out into legal defense.

This angers those so blinded by adjective-modified justice that they have no idea what actual justice looks like. To them, defending those who are being put through the star chamber of campus tribunals is the same as rape.

Especially since FIRE receives some funding from the eevviill Koch brothers.

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, a group backed financially by the Koch brothers that “fights for student and faculty rights” – is representing students who say they have been falsely accused of sex crimes or “denied fair treatment under state or college judicial processes” in relation to sex crimes on campus, according to The Record.

…..

The Foundation for Individual Rights will be taking up lawsuits on behalf of men who say they have been falsely accused of sexual assault or rape on campus. “We get reports from accused students,” Harris said. “It seems like the pressure to address this effectively leads to abandonment of due process that universities should be offering.”

If taken to court, the lawsuits will mark a new direction for the Koch-funded organization, which typically fights – in court – for “free speech” for the student body and has filed (and won) dozens of lawsuits targeting so-called “free speech zones” on campus.

I guess that being treated equally AND having special privileges gets tough when one of your special privileges gets challenged.
