This report comes from WOOD TV in Michigan back in August 2015:
…Poindexter hopes her story can inspire others to be true to themselves.
“If I were to grow out my hair to stop these comments, what is that saying to people who want to express themselves differently? Is it saying because other people are close-minded, you shouldn’t be yourself? I think that’s a terrible message,” Poindexter said.
Mt. Pleasant police are investigating the incident as a hate crime. They are working to see if any surveillance footage from the bar can help them identify a suspect.
Gay Patriot catches us up on this fake-hate crime that is just piled in with the rest of them:
Is it wrong for me to wonder … if anti-gay violence is so rampant and pervasive in our society, why do the gay activists have to fake so many hate crimes?
A gay Central Michigan University professor has pleaded guilty for falsely claiming that a random guy at a Toby Keith concert called her a “cross-dressing fag,” punched her in the face and spat on her.
The professor, Mari Poindexter, had alleged that the man approached her at the Aug. 19 concert at the Soaring Eagle Casino and Resort in Mount Pleasant, Mich., reports The Morning Sun, a local newspaper.
The man began hurling a rich tapestry of obscene slurs at Poindexter, she told police.
Later that night, the professor said, the same man ambushed her in the parking lot of The Cabin — a local bar. The man thumped Poindexter in the eye, she said, and spat on her.
Is it because drama queens crave attention and being a victim gets you attention in our society? Is it because society affords moral superiority to people who claim victim status? Does it enhance the political agenda of the social left to claim that those who oppose them are violent and must be suppressed by the state?
“The Community” is, of course, supporting her and goes so far as to say that the fact that she faked a hate crime makes her almost even *more* deserving of “compassion.”

So, this nutjob clocked herself in the face so she could complain about a “hate crime” that never happened… and all society must rearrange itself to accommodate her. That… is the Tyranny of the Mentally Ill.
