Sorry, but if you want to talk about the case from a feminist perspective, that's one thing. That's something I'd be interested in reading. But the vast bulk of that post is calling out another DUer you don't like and it's wrong to drag that drama into this group.

Maybe you should consider editing the post or self-deleting it, because it's really not a good look...
