    Yah man. First is a reply on a legal basis, then she explicitly says “I was well within my legal rights to just throw this thing in the trash, but I feel it’s useful to reply, so I did. Now that we’ve got the legal business squared away, this part is addressed to you on a more personal level.” Then it gets un-legal, and ends by referring him to exhibits F through O.

    I mean, in the grand scheme I do feel like actions are more important than letters. But she’s also taking some incredibly ballsy and wonderful actions, and this letter in addition is a fucking masterpiece.

      I also felt the exhibits were included in a specific quantity and order that left a big F O in the middle of that section. I love how she gives him a list of actually useful things Congress could do instead, gives him a lesson on what attorneys actually do, & references rapists and serial rapists (what else comes up if you Google Willis’ letter contents? Probably stuff about Ohio State, or eventually will when the crawlers index it).

      I ended up reading the whole thing, because it was so damn good to hear someone tell him to shut the fuck up, professionally.
