I really don’t care if he had “the right” to sue. Heck I could sue anybody if my feelings are hurt. And probably get a judgment. You and I both know that a good lawyer is the key to a winning verdict.

But was it the right thing to do? Was it honorable or was it about the $$$?

NO ONE is LESS qualified to opine here than I!

But I do know that it's next to impossible to win this kind of case in the USA, so Ventura must've had a good case.

This guy basically sucker punched an older fellow SEAL and went around the country getting laughs about it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've read, that ruffled some feathers even if (or especially if) Jesse is crazy.

It is not about the punch though. It’s about what was claimed Jesse said that instigated the so-called punch.

The first law of holes or Law of holes refers to a proverb which states,. “If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.”

“But was it the right thing to do? Was it honorable or was it about the $$$?”

From what I can tell, somebody slandered Jesse Ventura under the pretext to profit from book sales that resulted in increased book sales and rendering Jesse a pariah among’st his peers.

What else is relevant?

Jesse ..if you have been keeping up has become a left wing moonbat...(mostly because he’s a big mouth opportunist and saw that was where the winds were drifting so he could make a better buck)....and he run his mouth a lot ..
.and was running his mouth when he got popped....Jesse is as real as wrestling is

Do you really think this veiled reference to Ventura in the book had anything to do with book sales?

Your original post said you like Jesse. Why?

You’re comparing Chris Kyle to OJ Simpson? Incredible.

Jesse might have won in this court, but just bringing this slimy action — against a man’s widow, fer Godsake! — has doomed him forever in the court of public opinion. As somebody said earlier on the thread, what a small man. Jerk.

None of your post 19 gives any explanation whatsoever why you like Jesse Ventura. As for “the Body” supposedly being hurt by thing saids about him, seems he can dish it out but he can’t take it. Ha has slandered just about everybody from George Bush to the entire country he calls “The Fascist States of America.” The guy’s a self promoting dirt bag and the lawsuit has nothing to do with that.

Yep, declaring Bankruptcy and stiffing his Lawyers would really help Jesse’s credibility. LOL

Off to bed. Take care my FRiend.

A jury decided. That’s the system.

So we're supposed to applaud every verdict a jury decides because "that's the system"?

Jesse was shown whining on tv last night complaining he can’t go to Seal
Reunions any more as he would most surely get his ass beaten.
I can hope and pray can’t I.
Hopefully a real serious ass whoopin.
