Bookmarks: Carter Scott • A “loser” Pope? • A troll speaks at Rutgers
———— ♦ ————
One additional defendant, Cornell Harvey, was convicted last year. Another, Reginald Love, is to be tried this week.

This is a puzzling contribution for a self-styled liberal. He presents no evidence the Pope is a “loser,” no evidence he “suffered massive humiliation,” and no evidence he “slinked off” anywhere.

On-air, I could have a field day with this.
I have not yet figured out PJ Media’s orthodoxy. We can start with the misnaming of the university in the headline. Rick Moran does little more than present a long quotation from Breitbart.
Albeit I have no sympathy for the “delicate flowers,” time’s past for such name-calling. I never heard of Milo Yiannopoulos before, but if Matthew Boyer, the student who brought him to Rutgers, himself calls him a “troll,” this ought to suggest this person’s speech doesn’t merit attention.
Those who do, assume the risk.
I have not found any record of anything the man actually said that anyone might find offensive.
That said, I remember college. People that age are prone to become zealous over questions that finally don’t matter. As I write this today, this helps inform my view of a couple bullies who recently showed up at the shelter.
Hint: Don’t stick your hand in the blender.
