Evidence of what? Slander? I really would like to see an example of a post that is currently not pulled that would fall under this threat.

Nobody beats Joe Hadenuf for working in their pet cause into any subject under the sun. Recipes, tupperware, you name it, he can find an illegal immigration angle into it. That takes a special talent. You can't but admire it.

I think you should ask f.Christian that same question. f.Christian---Arcane---Secular Humanism---->Evolution!
I think he has been compared in the past to an obscure, sentient computer virus.

Its in relation to the level of vitriol I noticed, along with a lot of claims that were getting wilder and wilder, some of which were starting to allege broader conspiracies. The absurdity level was high, and the content of some of the statements which were being made was stuff that would be easy grist for some lawyer's mill. heck, I've known of defamation cases which resulted in Plaintiff's verdicts on much weaker statements than the ones I saw here.
To: concerned about politics
Okay, let's say I am sued for saying that Santa killed the Easter Bunny.
And, I know this isn't true. In defending myself, I would have to PROVE that the statement I made is TRUE.
Failing that, I would lose in court.

It makes you EVIL. You will rot in hell for all eternity while rabid rats slowly devour your flesh and acid is dripped on your head. Once your body is dissolved it will be reformed again by Satan himself so that the process can be repeated onward into eternity.
To: Chancellor Palpatine
You could post something on a local dispute over trash collection, and up she'd pop with a really emphatic anti-abortion screed somewhere in the middle. I'm a big fan of one-issue posters.

A little off from the exact quote but excellent none the less.

views contrary to your own sick views.
Sick?
To: lugsoul
Not to be picky, but the disclaimer you post does say that opinions posted here are the opinion of the poster and not FRYes. FR isn't writing the opinions. Posters are writing their opinions. Just like it says. All opinions. Read it.

To: Jrabbit
As someone posted earlier on this thread, even copying and pasting the offending post to this thread could cause me to be sued for libel.
No thanks. You can read the threads.

As I understand defamation law, your duty only kicks in once you have notice of alleged offending material. I think a good analogy can be drawn with ISPs, in that they are generally only liable if they fail to act on alleged offending material. Thus, until you received notice either internally or from some external source, neither you nor FreeRepublic LLC sould not be liable for defamation.
