The issue is CP though, not FR.

He lost in the Florida issue, and is being spiteful here, not trying to "save" FR.

If he wanted to do that, he would have posted a primer on how to couch one's language to not run afoul of libel laws. He did nothing of the sort. He posted a threat to those who supported Terri that they were going to get busted if they didn't knock it off.

Again, he never did this with Kobe, with Clinton, with Hillary, only due to this case in which he has a vested interest. Jim isn't the issue here. FR isn't the issue. Chancy is.

Whatever the motive was -- Jim's comments on here are pertinent. Anyone thinking they can say whatever they want and stay behind a screen name and Jim will protect them is in for a rude awakening. But then I couldn't believe someone would think that.

Personally I think this should have been brought out a long time ago. Since I was not a participant in those threads, I have only heard how bad they were, but I do know from other threads that Freepers have crossed the line from time to time. Why put Jim and FR in jeopardy for the sake of an agenda or argument?

The statement by Jim as follows cannot be lost in all of this rhetoric:

To: Poohbah

I've said that I will fight any subpoena to the best of my ability. I've also said that I'm not going to protect anyone who makes really stupid or illegal statements, ie, threats of violence or really vicious personal attacks, etc, that we don't want here anyway. I recommend not posting anything that will possibly result in a lawsuit or potentially a jail term.

Where is that? I read it as a discussion of Florida law.
