I really don't know what to make of this. Her story has been discredited and despite that she was Sen Gillibrand's "special guest" at the State of the Union Address, as we mentioned earlier, the boy whom she accused is suing the university. Yet, she persists in lugging the mattress around - including to the commencement ceremony. I suppose some pushback was inevitable considering how she carries on.

But plastering posters?

She got one. That's how this whole thing started.

The problem is...she liked it - and said so on Facebook.

Well then, the reason she's carrying the mattress around is because she's wanting another one...

Exactly. Whatever you think of her, of her mattress campaign, the guys claim of harassment, and the university's complicity in it, i just don't see how a poster campaign calling her a liar advances anything. It certainly won't change a lot of minds.

Due process.

She got it and didn't like it.

Well, tough. Nobody should be convicted of such a serious crime based solely on such a flawed story.

Next time, she needs to be a bit more cautious and keep her panties on a bit longer.

Which, of course, raises the next, and obvious, question.

How long before she finds out who's behind these posters and sues?

If a guy is behind the posters, she'll lay her mattress down for him... women love bad boys....
