Questions about McCormack Jackson suit
Due process.. I think we have some disagreement here about what process is due (to make a bad pun) to Mr. Filner. I agree strongly with Sjtorres' post above. "Filner can have his due process and day in court after he resigns." Due process, is a critically important right for the accused IN A COURT OF LAW. However, attempts to apply the concept of full legal due process, with advocates for the accused, rights to face your accusers, questioning the evidence, etc. can lead to absurd results when applied to employment situations. Examples are placing teachers who are known molestors on paid leave in "teacher jails" http://www.themediareport.com/2013/04/17/teacher-…. Ultimately Mr. Filner is an employee of the city of San Diego. In my opinion, he has clearly engaged in conduct which is grossly inappropriate for a city employee. Since there does not seem to be a direct procedure for his removal - other than a recall - applying pressure on him is the only solution. We shouldn't have to wait months or even years for a court process to play out to pressure Filner to leave.— July 24, 2013 4:55 p.m.

How dare you attack a potential victims' appearance? Way out of line. FYI I've flagged your offensive post for removal.— July 23, 2013 2:22 p.m.
Questions about McCormack Jackson suit
Filner has the right to defend himself but unless he is truly innocent (about a 1,000,000/1 longshot at this point) defending himself is not the right thing to do. He should start working on finding a replacement who shares similar passions for fighting against corporate greed but who can behave in an acceptable manner.— July 23, 2013 2:20 p.m.
Questions about McCormack Jackson suit
I still have tremendous respect for Don Bauder - I think he is the best financial/political writer in San Diego and has shown great integrity throughout his career. But my respect for him has dropped due to this series of articles, which almost sound like P.R. pieces for Filner's defense. I think in the interests of being overly fair to Filner, Don has made unwarranted implied attacks on the victims' credibility.— July 23, 2013 2:16 p.m.
Questions about McCormack Jackson suit
So last week many of you were saying that none of the acusers have come forward. Now they have. My impression is that Don and a lot of the posters have decided to defend Filner until the bitter end. Just curious, for the record what in the world do you guys think would be required for Filner to leave? Videotaped evidence? Losing a sexual harassment lawsuit? Being convicted of sexual assault? Or would even that be enough? Would you have to personally be present as he gropes someone? Or is any of that enough? Filner has a D by his name not an R so it's all a big right-wing conspiracy no matter what? Just curious.— July 23, 2013 9:42 a.m.

Don I find it surprising that you don't think grabbing a female employee's breast is cause for immediate termination. I don't agree with you.— July 16, 2013 5:56 p.m.
