Assuming he could find an attorney to do it. Most attorneys would advice against it, but if they did proceed they'd make him pay for it. Which I assume he was unwilling to do.

Yup.

Ok, now what do I win for the ultimate flamestarter?

But this is the ULTIMATE FLAME:

You swine. You vulgar little maggot. You worthless bag of filth. As we say in Texas, I'll bet you couldn't pour p!ss out of a boot with instructions on the heel. You are a canker. A sore that won't go away. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be seen with you. You're a putrescent mass, a walking vomit. You are a spineless little worm deserving nothing but the profoundest contempt. You are a jerk, a cad, a weasel. Your life is a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon. You are a bleating foal, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselves in recognition of what they had done. I will never get over the embarrassment of belonging to the same species as you. You are a monster, an ogre, a malformity. I barf at the very thought of you. You have all the appeal of a paper cut. Lepers avoid you. You are vile, worthless, less than nothing. You are a weed, a fungus, the dregs of this earth. And did I mention you smell? Try to edit your responses of unnecessary material before attempting to impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it more rapidly. You snail-skulled little rabbit. Would that a hawk pick you up, drive its beak into your brain, and upon finding it rancid set you loose to fly briefly before spattering the ocean rocks with the frothy pink shame of your ignoble blood. May you choke on the queasy, convulsing nausea of your own trite, foolish beliefs. You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You're a fool, an ignoramus. Monkeys look down on you. Even sheep won't have sex with you. You are unreservedly pathetic, starved for attention, and lost in a land that reality forgot. And what meaning do you expect your delusionally self-important statements of unknowing, inexperienced opinion to have with us? What fantasy do you hold that you would believe that your tiny-fisted tantrums would have more weight than that of a leprous desert rat, spinning rabidly in a circle, waiting for the bite of the snake? You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you puerile, one-handed, slack-jawed, drooling, meatslapper. On a good day you're a half-wit. You remind me of drool. You are deficient in all that lends character. You have the personality of wallpaper. You are dank and filthy. You are asinine and benighted. You are the source of all unpleasantness. You spread misery and sorrow wherever you go. You smarmy lagerlout git. You bloody woofter sod. Bugger off, pillock. You grotty wanking oik artless base-court apple-john. You clouted boggish foot-licking twit. You dankish clack-dish plonker. You gormless crook-pated tosser. You churlish boil-brained clotpole ponce. You cockered bum-bailey poofter. You craven dewberry pisshead cockup pratting naff. You gob-kissing gleeking flap-mouthed coxcomb. You dread-bolted fobbing beef-witted clapper-clawed flirt-gill. You are a fiend and a coward, and you have bad breath. You are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist. I despise everything about you, and I wish you would go away. I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid, so stupid it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh. The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped away most of what you wrote, because, well... it didn't really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative post was pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us "normal" people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget that there are "challenged" persons in this world who find these things more difficult. If I had known, that this was your case then I would have never read your post. It just wouldn't have been "right". Sort of like parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional, and social struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.

Thanks ---- then it seems like this whole thread is a waste of time --- it clearly states everything is an opinion by the poster. We're covered.

Wow - I've been slowly trying to read this thread and figure out whats going on.

So far, Alot of this thread is much ado about nothing!

I don't know what even prompted CP to post it.

I think freepers should be proud of the work they do, voicing their opinions and taking action-and getting a positive reaction. Saving a life is something to be very proud of!

Huck, since I am sure there is no Hell, I have to say you have mischaracterized my remarks. There is a "period" of intense difficulty, but that isn't forever.

If I look out the window and then post, "It's night time," that's not an opinion, it's a statement of fact.

Not really. On the internet --- it is not night when you say it is night if I'm sitting in Australia and it's day time for me. Same with seasons. You might say it's autumn but it's spring if I'm in Australia. So that's not a fact. Again ---- what about those people who claim OJ Simpson harmed or wished to harm Nicole? He was proven innocent by the jury.

Probably. I wonder how much they actually make off that scam.

Occasionally I get a spam from one of these outfits and I wonder who actually falls for some of these things.

Well, the marketing angles were all aimed at people who let hope triumph over reason, but who all had different tastes. It was actually pretty slick.

So if I posted that "In my opinion the posts of (insert screenname here) are always vile, and they are utterly without any value whatsoever, other than as evidence that such human filth exists to defile the earth.", it's safe?

Seems some folks on here only want the Rule of Law to pertain to the DemocRATs -- they don't want it if it affects what they want done.

Wisdom, from the mouths of babes :-)

It' s sort of like the SCOTUS- when they're ending the Florida re-count, they're the greatest thing since sliced bread. When they overturn sodomy laws, they should all be impeached.

Hypocrites exist everywhere on the political spectrum.

Should I take something from the fact that the "REAL" Chancellor/Emperor Palpatine was the main BAD GUY in the Star Wars movies even BELOW Jabba the Hutt and Darth Vader????!!!! Some name this guy picked for himself if he is trying to pose as the good guy here.

So are you saying that you and CP are allies of Michael or you are trying to save Freerepublic from ruin?

I really don't know--or care--what's CP's motives are. My motive is the latter.

My sentiments are the latter as well. Some of these Freepers cannot get it through their head that some of us didn't follow every word about this case either and all we care about is FR. Most seem to have ignored Jim's comments or Dog Gone's back on this thread!

Exactly! Took many hours for someone to state that. CP was not being helpful,just raising fear and attempting to quench discussion, not to aid it.

Hooray for you, Axenolith! Thanks!

OK, let me rephrase it:

If I post, "It's night time out where I am," then it's a statement. It may or may not be true. In this case, it is.

"Again ---- what about those people who claim OJ Simpson harmed or wished to harm Nicole? He was proven innocent by the jury."

Issues:

1. The jury didn't "prove him innocent." They simply refused to convict.

2. The civil suit found that the preponderance of the evidence pointed to OJ as the killer.

3. He is, by nature of his celebrity on the gridiron and appearing in really awful movies, a public person.
