Gollin's Hard-On of the Week

[Brian Crawford]

So what if it IS a "diploma mill."  They aren't illegal....oh wait - that doesn't matter anymore.....

That is a good point.  So long as fraud is not involved (e.g., as in the LaSalle case, representing the issuer as "accredited" when it is not) there really is no crime involved in peddling such things.  Buyers generally are well aware of what they are and aren't getting, which is why the FTC has a problem with using any of its powers to prevent it.  Obviously other agencies don't share their prediliction for ethical enforcement.

There may be a crime in using the degrees in some states, but unless you are a Christian or a conservative politician you don't have to worry too much about the law actually being enforced.

But in the case of HSU there really is no grey area.  It has never issued a single degree, yet has been the subject of, shall we say, intense scrutiny from Klempner, Ezell, Sphincter Boy and the rest of the wannabe cadre from the first moment its existence was announced.  

During that same time people were being sold mutant pork illegally for food, people's civil rights were being violated, perverts were peddling pedophile-pandering porn, and none of the above ever said a single word against it.  

If their scrutiny was directed at actual criminal activity--particularly that being committed by people who live under the same roof as the scrutinizer--the inquiring minds would have a better chance of actually protecting the public.  That they choose to ignore such conduct suggests they really aren't interested in any such thing, and have another agenda in mind.

I have an idea, I'm going to open up 60 to 80 college campuses which will be diploma mills. Now how can I do that without drawing attention to my activivity. I do not want to draw the watchful eyes and ears of the state and federal officials or super sluth George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin). I know, I'll call it Homeland Security University!!!!!!!!!!!

Are Bear and Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin) smoking dope?

Then to top off his cyberstalking, George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin) not only works his computer pointing devise to WHOIS and finds it necessary to cut and paste Hoyer's ownership of the web site, but he actually takes the time to go through web archives for each year the web site has been open an cuts and pastes that. Now that is stalking.
