SJW's at Oberlin College lose big time :]

PSA
SJW's be warned, not all juries think-speak like 1984

YOU JUST CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP... SJW Jackbooted Thugs get their asses handed to them by a jury of their peers.

Oberlin College (OC) EPICALLY lost a lawsuit, in which College Employees massively libeled A local small business, Gibsons, after Gibsons employees threw out a couple of black students for stealing a couple bottles of booze from the retailer.

OC lost, and in the punitive damages proceedings, was ordered to pay Gibsons $31 Million Dollars in damages.

OC has requested a new trial. Why... because the evidence in phase 2 of the trial was so devastating in how they treated the local small business, that the jury sent them an overwhelming message.

In essence... they had very little defense... the Gibsons lawyer kicked their ass with room to spare, and they lost spectacularly, in great measure because of hubris and unwarranted pomp.

The trial notes are mind blowing on this case. Truly. Oberlin College was as guilty of fascism and malice, as the axe handle toting houligans of any two bit totalitarian dictator.

They were actually blind to their own actions... and acted surprised when the jury was outraged at how thoroughly they had violated the rights of the Gibsons store.

This entire debacle, from the time the shoplifters were caught, to the jury awards in the trial, are a case study in the abuse of reason and logic, and the use of mobs and crowds to meet out punishment against SJW "newspeak".

Gibson’s Bakery: Oberlin College’s request for a new trial is “baseless"
Posted by William A. Jacobson, Thursday, August 29, 2019 at 1:15pm

In the Gibson’s Bakery v. Oberlin College case, the judgment for the plaintiffs amounted to almost $32 million in damages and defendants were required to post a $36 million bond to secure the judgment pending appeal.

Oberlin College will appeal, of course, but before has filed two post-trial motions, a Motion for Judgment Notwithstanding The Verdict (pdf.) and Motion for a New Trial (pdf.). As explained in our post, Oberlin College Seeks New Trial in Gibson’s Bakery Case, most of those motions were uninteresting rehashing of arguments previously litigated and rejected by the trial Judge John Miraldi.

The only interesting part of the motions was the issue of the jury in the compensatory phase of the trial finding no “actual malice,” but in the punitive phase finding a level of culpability and intents/gross negligence warranting punitive damages. The term “actual malice” was not used in the jury questions in the punitive phase, but Oberlin College claimed the jury should not have been allowed to rule twice on the issue.

Since this was a new issue for us (but apparently raised by Oberlin College during the trial), we awaited the Gibsons’ response:
