The Mahatma Did Like Naked Chicks?
“Why would she change into pajamas?” asked Mr. Richards. “Why didn’t she leave when she sees there’s no bed for her? Why didn’t she punch him in the face?” He noted that there were no signs of physical trauma. “My client is 5-foot-4 and 130 pounds. He’s a thin Gandhi-type guy. He can’t overpower anybody. Any girl would kick his butt.” [ more ]

Indian govt must immediately sue that lawyer for 100 million dollars for comparing Gandhi with dirty guy anand.
I agree with NRITechie - maybe they can get a 100 mn bucks to remove poverty from half of India with this pseudo-designer’s money!! Any US court could grant it for defamation and manipulation by the lawyer(comparing him to a saint so that people view him as a simple peaceful indian boy and using Gandhi as a symbol so that gandhi’s views seem to rub off on this creep to the jury)
Come On, Indian Government, go for it!!
The most bizarre thing is that Jon is probably the only straight designer in the business. Maybe that’s why he wasn’t any good.
NRITechie and PK, you have some great ideas there.
1) GoI intervention to preserve Gandhi’s legacy and name.
2) USD 100m from lawyer/designer, despite their net worth being a fraction of this figure [also, doesn’t US law provide for limits to defamatory compensation??]
3) Eradicate poverty from 50% of your matrabhoomi using this money.
HEYYYYYYY! Know what? World Bank is hiring. Wolfowitz and Riza, move over.
Jay, I think there are quite a few decent heterosexual Indian designers, including Ashish Soni, Falguni/Shane Peacock etc.
All that Richards meant by making a reference to Gandhi was that Anand Jon is not a physically well-built guy.
Anyway, I hope AJ wins the case. Godspeed.
So cow tse tung….as per your thoughts, Gandhi can be referenced with any tom/dick/harry..homeless fellow..etc..
Anand Jon is a rapist and he deserves jail! Thatz it. I don’t have any sympathy to AJ bcoz he is a desi..no way..
How do I get in touch with the Indian government!! :) They so need to sue the lawyer and client n get some poor children the help they need rather than let all that money go to help a guy who might have committed multiple rapes. I don’t think so many girls would come out and say that he did it if he hadn’t.
Maybe I could find the indian govt’s website!!
