When Bilgepump reported last year about Dawn Herb’s arrest for yelling at her toilet [1], I along with many Poopreporters were outraged. We questioned the validity of her arrest due to the fact that she was merely exercising her First Amendment rights when she declared a verbal Jihad on her piece of shit shitter.
It seems that since Ms. Herb could not grab her balls and get down to business, she grabbed the other two things a smart woman grabs these days when she feels her rights have been violated – a lawyer and someone from the ACLU. Thusly armed, Ms. Herb threatened a lawsuit; and in an effort to prevent a civil suit that could end up costing more, the city of Scranton has awarded her $19,000.00 for her legal fees. [2]
The mayor of Scranton, Chris Doherty, stated that "Just because you wear a uniform doesn’t allow you to make your own personal judgments. You have to follow the law." Well, yes, Chris, you do.
