Except none of that is true. For that ethical halo to be punctured even slightly, someone like Tom Girardi, who turned the “Erin Brockovich” case, trace levels of hexavalent chromium in Hinckley, California, into hundreds of millions of dollars for himself, has to engage in such spectacular fraud it gets attention. And even then his environmental shakedowns are minimized, though they were the same tactics he used against Pacific Gas & Electric.

Excerpt from pjmedia.com… it’s apparently illegal to say the term “illegal alien” in a classroom as Leah McGhee’s high school son Christian found out.
The North Carolina kid was given an assignment by his English teacher to write about the word “alien.” Christian McGhee asked the teacher for clarification. Was it a “space alien” or an “illegal alien without green cards”?
One of the kids in Christian’s class took offense to using the term “illegal aliens,” and the school administration agreed. Christian was suspended for three days.
For sheer idiocy, this tops the list. The kid was asking a question about an assignment. He wasn’t disparaging anyone or singling out any ethnic group.
The Liberty Justice Center took the case.
“Even though Christian asked a factual, non-threatening question—about a word the class was discussing—the school board branded him with false accusations of racism,” Senior Counsel at the Liberty Justice Center Buck Dougherty said in a statement. “The school has not only violated his constitutional right to free speech but also his right to due process and his right to access education, a guaranteed right under North Carolina law. We are proud to stand beside Christian and his family in challenging this egregious violation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments.”
