Yeah - crazy - if he only he could channel his rage into murdering abortion clinic doctors like good little Americans.

Perhaps Harvard Law should add "Drinking Responsibly" and "stress management" to its course offerings ...

Actually, I'm not going to jump to conclusions on why this young man did this, just that it was incredibly stupid and he's effectively destroyed a bright future for nothing.

And of course Steve green stops in to....

well, what exactly did he stop in for? To imply that those he holds such disdain for here heartily endorse killing abortion doctors?

Ass.

Okay, I'll defend the idiot here.

When you're drunk - really stupid things suddenly seem like a good idea. If you're LUCKY, when you get the stupid idea you'll be too drunk to coordinate any sort of action on it. But if you're not so drunk you can't move, you'll likely at least hazily remember what you did the next day.

This guy's saying he was too druink to remember. I don't buy it. He may not want to admit he remembers - and I can't blame him for that - but he probably remembers what happened, all right.

Guess I'm not defending him so much after all, am I? Hmm. Well, sorry about theat...

"To imply that those he holds such disdain for here heartily endorse killing abortion doctors?"

No, to point out that hypocritical jackasses blame a "liberal mentality" when sickos like this Harvard guy do stupid things and yet they will turn around and just write off abortion doctor murderers as mentally ill.

But then, there are several folks around here who I have seen defend he murder of abortion doctors, so there's always the element of truth at work as well. No implication needed.

If he went to the hospital for a stomach pump or alchohol poisoning, or drug tests showed it wasn't just booze, I could believe he doesn't know what he did or why he did it.
But as someone that in his youth did lots of very stupid things, with blood levels measured as proof not percent, I don't buy it.

If he had set fire to an abortion clinic...

Here's a hint. He's a radical leftist moonbat who hates America. He's been wishing to do something like this for a long time, but only got the courage to do so after he had a few drinks in him. I'd bet his classmates and Professors secretly applaud him. Or maybe not so secretly.

I read the article - I'm not sure how any rational person, no matter how much of a hack they are - could infer that from such a small article. Absolutely nothing of which you state has anything to do with any facts, references etc.

Bizarre.

Steve,

Nobody was "writing the killer off as mentally ill", I assume you mean, of the murdering scumbag Tiller. The man's mental illness is a FACT according to testimony of his family and those who knew him. Moreover, no one I know is excusing the man's actions based on his illness. I believe he should be punished accordingly regardless. Try to refrain from engaging in further projection. It only makes you look stupid.

Had Me fooled ...Just for a split second I Really thought You were going to defend Steve Green.

My bad.

I have no problem with people showing this young man compassion. However, he committed a crime and must face judgement under the law. The law firm has every right/privilege to rescind this young man's employment offer. Didn't know why or how he did it? Oh well, too bad.

Perhaps Schroeder should write to Bill Ayers. Surely, he would have a sympathetic ear. It seems likely Ayers can introduce Schroeder to Chicago insiders who will be more understanding of Schroeder's 'youthful indiscretions'...

Let's see. Oh! He's from HARVARD! Well that explains it, see as who they have TEACHING there. And they have the most illustrious alumni! Just and Barry and the people he pals around with.

I know you don't really care, Steve, but every time you make a comment, you lose respectability. Since you're clearly not here for respectability, of course, you won't care. But the reality is, you do your cause harm by your constant off-topic comments, ad hominem attacks, thread hijacking and the like. Such antics do not make reasonable people inclined to your point of view. I suppose from the standpoint of street theater, like the people who like to play dead in the streets, you might see yourself as gaining the approval of your peers by "stick it to the [insert ad hominem here]." Well, you just make yourself more foolish in everyone else's eyes.

Meanwhile, may I suggest to the rest of us that refraining from responding, and letting his comments stand or fall on their own demerits, might be a better approach than feeding the troll?

wow. went from everything to nothing.

Funny how people like Mr. Schroeder are for "human rights" but rarely ever speak out against the AQs and Talibans of the world as they continually deny the most basic of human rights to those in their control.

btw Jeff, I agree and we should also add VIC to the "don't feed the Troll" list.

I think SAUD AND VIC have both melded into one vicious troll named Steve Green whom is obviously starved for attention.

If he is so damned compassionate, maybe he could give some of those treasured hugs to the families of the victims whose remains could have been destroyed, along with an unqualified admission of culpability and an unequivocal apology, instead of an "I was too drunk to remember anything" dodge. Yep, nothing like dishonoring the remains of people who were killed in a senseless act of violence by trying to incinerate their memorial chapel in another senseless act of violence.

The "I was drunk" ploy comes from the law which deems you "drunk" if YOU ARE UNABLE TO CARE FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY OR THAT OF OTHERS. The translation of that is that "you're not responsible for your actions".

It totally IGNORES 'who was responsible' for your getting drunk in the first place.

Of course a liberal will buy that and blame "society", "group pressure", "work environment", etc. Not the person who slammed down one drink after another until they were totally wasted. For them, "personal responsibility" does not enter into the equation anywhere.

Who answers questions with "I know him as..."? Was this guy given some kind of form to fill-in the 'I know him as' blanks, or is that some kind of Ivy League lawyer talk?

All you have to do is point out the hatred liberals have for their country and who appears first with a hateful remark? You got it. The ever, underwhelming presence of Stevie Green. Who I confess, reminds me of a high school softmore student. ww

Had Me fooled ...Just for a split second I Really thought You were going to defend Steve Green.

No, he doesn't need a defense. Or a reply, for that matter. As Jeff pointed out, there's not much point.

Smart move by the firm.
If when he is drunk he commits arson and desecrates a chapel. No telling what other things he will do on binge, embrace the firm at dinner, rape, murder vehicular homicide. If he really blanked out then he needs to start a 12 step program now before he kills him self or others.

or he is lying immature individual.
Either way he is too much liability for any law firm to hire right now.

Though Van jones might have green job postion.

Well, once again I've set a high water mark for stupidity and predictable reflexive lefty boilerplate posts.
My work here is done.
So, once again let me remind you that if the ladies don't find ya handsome, they should at least find ya handy.

And of course Steve green stops in to....

...stick his penis into the mashed potatoes.

But then, there are several folks around here who I have seen defend he murder of abortion doctors, so there's always the element of truth at work as well. No implication needed.

Name them. WHO exactly has defended the murder of abortion doctors? I want names, and links. ANd if you can't provide that, I'd suggest you pour yourself a nice steaming cup of STFU.

Had Me fooled ...Just for a split second I Really thought You were going to defend Steve Green.

Lol. I had the same thought.

How cute, 914 has turned into my own private stalker.

Yeah, cry us another. It gives me a woody. Don't wanna be "stalked", don't show up in the thread.

Typical Lib LOON. Did you really expect something different?

"He's a radical leftist moonbat who hates America."

Because we all know that huge, multinational law firms always go to Harvard Law, that hot bed of radical leftist thought, to fill their moonbat quota.

"I'm not sure how any rational person, no matter how much of a hack they are - could infer that from such a small article."
-

A reasonable person could infer it from this:
"..HLS Lambda, an LGBT law-student group where Schroeder was co-president." and from his volunteering for the cliched 'human rights' group.

Nine times out of ten, the person with such a background is a loony Lefty. Reality-based people just accept that fact and move on.

Whoops! Anon @ #31 was me.

I understand attacking the person who did this, but I don't understand attacking his professors, classmates, etc. They seem to know him as a generally good guy and are likely quite confused by his actions. Nowhere did they say that they accept what he did as okay.
