Man Arrested For Protesting Outside Federalist Society Chief's House Earns $62.5K Settlement From The Cops

Leonard Leo got a protester arrested. The protester secured the last laugh.

"....Durand-McDonnell called him (Leo) a “fucking asshole” on a public street and that this made his family “distraught.” I dunno, has Leo considered just not being a fucking asshole? That might avoid these situations too.... "

Enjoyable read, considering the asshole at the center of the story
