COLUMBIA, Mo. | Two University of Missouri students have apologized for scattering cotton balls outside the Black Culture Center on campus.
Nineteen-year-old freshman Sean Fitzgerald and 21-year-old senior Zachary Tucker were arrested Tuesday on suspicion of hate crimes. They have not been charged.
In a letter to campus leaders and student groups issued Friday, the two apologized for their "inexcusable judgment."
The statement described what they called "a series of foolish acts" that included riding a Missouri tiger statue and hoisting a pirate flag at the ROTC building. Both students have been suspended from school.

WARNING: EXPLICIT LANGUAGE: I just want to say how extremely hurt and disappointed I am. Last night as I walking through campus, some guys riding on the back of a pickup truck decided that it would be okay to continuously scream n-word at me. I really just want to know why my simple existence is such a threat to society. For those of you who wonder why I’m always talking about the importance of inclusion and respect, it’s because I’ve experienced moments like this multiple times at THIS university, making me not feel included here. Many of you are so privileged that you’ll never know what it feels like to be a hijab-wearing Muslim woman and be called a terrorist or a towel head. You don’t have to think about being transgender and worrying about finding a restroom where you can go and not be targeted for violence because you don’t fit into the gender binary. You’ll never know what it feels like to see Memorial Union every day and enter the side like a second class citizen because after 90 years, there’s still no accessible way to enter the tower. You’ve never been spit on walking down 9th street or mis-gendered at Pizza Tree because they called out your birth name. You’ve never had to experience people throwing drinks on you and yelling man of taste and distinction at you from the patio at Big 12 as you walk past on the street holding hands with your partner. You might never had to think twice about what you’re wearing walking around campus at night so that someone won’t think it’s okay to take ownership of your body because your outfit was “asking for it.” If your simple existence is not a political statement I’m really going to need for you to check your privilege. These are some of my experiences and the experiences of the ones closest to me. This is what I’m fighting against every day in boardrooms, conferences, meetings, classrooms, the Capitol, and in my daily life. This is my reality. Is it weird that I think that I have the right to feel safe here too? If you see violence like this and don’t say anything, you, yes YOU, are a part of the problem. It’s the reason why It’s On Us, Black Lives Matter, Trans Rights are Human Rights, and love is rough ridin' love. If you want to fight for social change at Mizzou there are so many different outlets. Apply to be a Diversity Peer Educator, stop by any of our wonderful centers of social justice. Educate yourselves and others. Hold your family, friends, fraternity brothers and sorority sisters accountable. And if this post made you feel uncomfortable, GOOD! That means I’m doing my job. It’s time to wake up Mizzou.
Your n-word/man of taste and distinction Missouri Students Association President,
Payton Head

Sad.

So Payton is an former male homosexual who now is a handicapped Muslim transgender woman who wears a hijab (which could be construed as "asking for it") but somehow the Pizza Tree people found out her birth name?

I would imagine that their arbitration clause was changed via someone's iphone while still in the courtroom before the verdict was even finished being read.

I find that nearly impossible to believe.

Kinda seems like this opens the door to monetizing anything bad that has ever happened in a car that is insured by Geico.

Did they like to ride naked? How else could that be so? :dunno:

article I read didn't go into a ton of details but appears nobody entered a defense and probably got a default judgement. but it also said there was arbitration, then trial, then appeal. guessing someone at geico didn't take it seriously and the bf didn't notify them of the action or some combo of all that crap. I'm not attorney though, one of our residents could probably opine much better.
Geico appealed the judgement claiming they were not given "meaningful opportunity to defend its interests," court documents said.
"But Geico did have the opportunity to participate and defend its interests—including the ability to challenge liability and damages—by entering a defense of Insured," the appeals court opinion said.

I believe it's because they (whoever it was that first heard about it) didn't even turn in a claim or didn't investigate more before denying the claim. Probably one of the stupidest cases ever.

If I ever give my wife a (new) STD, I'm going to need to remember that the car gave it to me.
