Fake rape threat posted by leftie female student blogger

Some shit you couldn't make up if you tried.

There are some on the left who just loooove to be a victim. I guess Meg Lanker-Simons got tired of waiting for somebody to harass or threaten her, so she decided to jump-start the process and do it herself:

It sounds like something Alex Jones would make up and COG would repost. But apparently it is not.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A well-known female liberal blogger and radio host at the University of Wyoming (UW) is being accused by police of fabricating a rape threat against herself to appear as if it came from a conservative.

The obscene message directed at activist Meg Lanker-Simons was posted on a college “crush” Facebook page earlier this week and immediately ignited outrage from the college community.

“I want to hate f**k Meg Lanker-Simons so hard. That chick that runs her liberal mouth all the time and doesn’t care who knows it,” it read. “I think its hot and it makes me angry. One night with me and shes gonna be a good Republican bitch,” the post reads, according to a screenshot.

Before the post was removed, Lanker-Simons commented on it and on her own blog, calling it “disgusting, misogynistic, and apparently something the admins of this page think is a perfectly acceptable sentiment.”

She also encouraged the poster to seek help at the UW Counseling service and ends with the advice:

“Instead of focusing on how angry and turned on me ‘running my mouth’ makes you, perhaps you should listen instead. You might learn something.”

But on Monday, The University of Wyoming Police Department issued a citation to Lanker-Simons for “interference” for “false statements she made to the UW Police Department,” according to a UW statement referred to by Laramie Boomerang Online.

"Subject admitted to making a controversial post on UW Crushes webpage and then lied about not doing it," according to the citation.

The University of Wyoming also confirmed a statement that the police had “"obtained substantial evidence verifying that the offending Facebook post came from Lanker-Simons' computer, while the computer was in her possession.”

According to a Facebook page that apparently belongs to Lanker-Simons she is a member of the University of Wyoming Gender & Women's Studies group as well as the school’s chapter of The Nonviolent Communist.

Since police cited her, supporters have a constructed a Facebook page entitled “Meg Lanker-Simons is innocent.”

“Meg Lanker-Simons is innocent we believe what she did was justified and deserves not to be held accountable for her accusations we stand behind you sister,” reads that page’s description.

Lanker-Simons was in the news in 2010 when she was a plaintiff in a successful lawsuit against UW after it retracted its invitation to have Bill Ayers speak on campus.

Love that part emphasized above. She is innocent, but - simultaneously - what she did was justified and she should not be held accountable. I guess the students who constructed the Facebook page didn't take any logic courses at the university.

Nonviolent Communist, indeed.

No political group has a monopoly on lies and just plain dumbasses, but I completely agree the LWWs tend to be stupider about trying to pull it off.

What about the democratic congressman who vandalized his own office with swastikas or the lying congressional black caucus who claimed someone spit on them and called them names. Numerous video sources dispute EVERYTHING they claimed.
