The cowardly bunch waited to see which way the wind would blow before speaking. One would not have expected them to speak up for the innocence of the accused at the out-set, but to have spoken up for the right of the accused to a fair hearing before being publically condemned. Now that outrage at the mistreatment of the accused has become popular, the Duke faculty has found its courage and integrity.

Here are some fine examples: <br /><br />Channon Christian case, Knoxville,TN<br />http://www.wate.com/Global/story.asp?S=5925539&nav=0RYv<br /><br />VUU rape case<br />http://www.timesdispatch.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=RTD/MGArticle/RTD_BasicArticle&c=MGArticle&cid=1137833814651<br /><br /><br />Of course, in these cases, there is actual evidence of guilt such as being caught in the act by the authorities or having the victim's body in a house rented by one of the accused. <br />If the only evidence against you is the word of a stripper with credibility problems, why should you sit in jail if you can come up with bail? Especially if your life is more endangered by being in jail than the public is endangered by your presence on the streets. Doubtful anyone could make that argument in the TN case......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32542246.post-15692546051956402412007-01-22T13:18:00.000-05:002007-01-22T13:18:00.000-05:00"The unwritten and often unstated assumptions of c..."The unwritten and often unstated assumptions of curriculum oversight committees is that the act of questioning the content of the course or program is an act of race/class/gender bias so people simply let their questions go unasked. <br /><br />This suits the interests of the college administration because the point of such programs and courses is to get a measure of immunity from endless charges of racial, gender and class bias.

While the meaning of words is open to some degree of interpretation by the hearer of those words, to say the above indicates that the speaker is insisting that the words be interpreted exactly as he meant them to be, no more or no less. BUT how can this be guaranteed unless the speaker has in some way carefully prefaced the words before uttering/writing them? Does this not then place a higher burden on the speaker/writer to use exacting caution in carefully constructing his phrases to negate or at least minimize the possibility that his words not be misconstrued? If the arrow falls short of the target, is the target or the shooter to blame? <br />Is the meaning of words dictated by the audience the words are directed to? Possibly. If the words are for a particular audience, then the producer of the words could justifiably say “Well, if you were in this group, you would have understood what I meant.” If the words are NOT restricted to a group but disseminated to the general public, then the producer of the words has, by choosing public dissemination, made such justification impossible. They have then effectively released words as though a) they assume the rest of the world thinks or should think exactly as they do or b) they refuse to arrange, or are incapable of arranging their words to acknowledge any difference in the composition of the world outside their group. In committing b), the producer of words shows a parochial attitude and the words they produce therefore cannot logically have worldly application but should be restricted to the narrow audience. By not doing so, the producer of the words exhibits reckless disregard for the effects the words may have. The words may have little or no effect, but to the extent they do, the producers of the words are responsible if they chose a broad release rather than an appropriately restricted release. Intentional release to a broader audience requires that the words be clarified/modified as necessary to avoid charge of intentional harm, otherwise any negatives arising from those words can duly be laid at the feet of the producers as it was their responsibility to begin with to either choose their audience or choose their words - a decision that everybody has to make on a daily basis or suffer the consequences.
