Just For A Complete Record: Fitton's Lame-Brained Response In The Evanston Reparations Matter, In Federal Court In Chicago...

I won't quote it -- but just drop a link here -- as no part of it makes any sense, in any rational interpretation of the Hierholzer case, discussed out of the Fourth Circuit. To offer a more rational, sensible analysis of the applicable law, here is the city's original three page citation to Hierholzer, and here is the city's motion to dismiss, in full. [And, just one of my earlier backgrounders, on it all. And another, here.]

The able USDC Judge Kness will now shortly schedule a hearing -- on the city's pending motion to dismiss Fitton's recruited plaintiffs, for a complete lack of standing.

And that cannot come swiftly enough, in my opinion.

These are simply a bunch of metaphorical Molotov Cocktail throwers -- ones who wish to stir up racial animus -- and reopen the old wounds that they cannot deny exist.

To be certain, Tom Fitton himself (not even a lawyer) has a long track record of attention-seeking but meritless strike lawsuit filings. This is just another one of those. Pretty pathetic, actually. The people of Evanston overwhelmingly are in favor of this program. They voted for it. So he ought to peddle his bitter root-berry juice. . . elsewhere.

Onward.
