They just don’t know when to STHU.
Thanks for the laugh.
Thanks for posting this, because it must be seen to be believed!
Below is the response I submitted, under my real life name. Should ill befall me I hope this post will substantiate what I said and when.

For you all, there is no True Truth, it’s all perception and viewpoint, and whatever suits your Narrative of Violence and Oppression and/or Offensive Cafeteria Meal Choices.
I know that Truth is now considered a tool of the Patriarchy, along with Math, etc. But society won’t get anywhere without those things, and if you need an empirical example, I give you Venezuela.
As to the original miscreants’ names being made public, that is a very silly complaint. Their names are now a matter of the public record, since all three plead guilty in a public court of law. I realize that to you white liberal savior types these individuals are just three Oppressed Negroes; however they were (are?) enrolled students at your school so I wonder why you deny them their agency. I don’t wonder why you omit their guilty pleas.
Thank you for reading this comment. Please try and open your eyes to reality, it is all around you, and it is, indeed, authentic.
They are liars, racists, probably wear MAGA hats and no doubt are affiliated with the local Ku Klux Klan!
Oh, brother. The faculty lied about their participation, the president is still unapologetic, and "free speech at Oberlin" apparently extends to public bullying of off-campus businesses. And just to top it off the behavior of university counsel was somewhere between incompetent and incomprehensible. To openly insult a jury currently sitting on the case? Unbelievable.
No, it is clear that Oberlin has learned nothing, including how to apologize to a family treated badly enough to earn the school a $44 million judgment against. Just as clearly it insists that the bullying by the students is a manifestation of some sort of "justice" when real justice said otherwise, and worst of all, that the "increasingly authoritarian country" is so due to the authority of the mob with themselves as the primary perpetrators. I hope the penalty stands.
The trial was extensively covered by Leagal Insurrection.
" It is clear that Oberlin College has settled on the claim that it is the defender of student free speech as a crisis management theme.We have explored many times why the assertion that the college was held liable for the speech of students is false. Oberlin College was held liable for the actions of its administrators, including the Senior Vice President and Dean of Students, in spreading the defamatory statements. The college may dispute the facts, but the legal theory of liability cannot be disputed.
There is a separate legal issue as to whether the accusations against Gibson’s were defamatory or constitutionally protected opinion, but that has nothing to do with the erroneous vicarious liability narrative."
Nonsense
Oberlin encouraged and staff participated
Your comment misspelled “manufactured racial profiling”
Gibson’s has caught over forty shoplifters. Five have been black. That isn’t racial profiling and was addressed in the trial.
This article is Libel, and Gibson’s should sue.
Nothing changed, or will change, with respect to free speech.
The court re-coupled accountability and responsibility to speech.
If the snowflakes do not understand, we can bring back dueling pistols
Back in the day, the Marxist’s published the same sort of drivel at my University. I think they called themselves the Chevron club.
Democrats are evil scum.
Live by the collective, die by the collective.
Let employers beware of hiring anyone with an Oberlin degree.
They are telling the media to “change the narrative.”
Pathetic.
Well someone is noticing and counting /s/
Is it profiling to ask how many of them were Oberlin students. One might conclude that Oberlin students are not honest as a class. Imagine walking in to buy a cupcake or brownie and finding that the staff are suspicious that you might be a shoplifer just because they already profiled you and determined that you were a shoplifting risk. And there you were believing that with white privilege you were protected from such things.
That would be the police, over time.
Yes, yes, we know.
Keeping records of arrests is racist.
Here’s another kicker...
Oberlin found an Alumni who would paid the defense and fine of the shoplifter
And the shoplifter was driven to Columbus for court in a college owned vehicle
I wonder how many of the 80% of the non-black shoplifters charged have been given those perks
