Another Dopey Lawsuit

How 'bout this: You report on the racist, separatist and incendiary language and philosophy of a nutty charter school ... and you get sued for "defamation." Not only that, because you reported the truth, some nutjob felt they had to issue a [phony] bomb threat, and it's YOUR fault that nutjob (or jobs) did what they did.

The Los Angeles Unified School District didn't see any problems with this school other than its low test scores. No problems? No problem with these statements by the school's principal?:

We don't want to drink from a White water fountain, we have our own wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain in our aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain. So the whole issue of segregation and the whole issue of the Civil Rights Movement is all within the box of White culture and White supremacy. We should not still be fighting for what they have. We are not interested in what they have because we have so much more and because the world is so much larger. And ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own destruction.

Hey, it IS California, after all, right?

This lawsuit should be chucked out of court faster than Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi criticize George Bush.
