The Merciful End to the Trial of Dharun Ravi

We have to take Sabitha?s word for it, I?m afraid. Ravi cried while she spoke, but he chose not to explain himself today, which seemed like a pity to me. ?Every body haaaatess #DharunRavi,? a Twitter user named J.A.H. tweeted this morning. True enough, and Ravi didn?t help himself with two interviews he gave after his conviction. Ravi said he was sorry, but his insistence that he acted without any anti-gay feelings at all just wasn?t plausible. Ravi said he turned on his camera only because the man Clementi invited to the room, M.B., looked ?strange.? (M.B. wasn?t a student and was a few years older.) He claimed he would have acted the same way if a girl who ?looked as strange? had come to the room. I don?t buy it. More believable, but not especially sympathetic, was Ravi?s response to the question ?What were you thinking?? He answered, "I wasn?t,? adding, ?I got caught up in what I thought was funny, and my own ego."
