Your post “Rather than malice, why not just allow lawsuits for stupidity and lack of due diligence?”
That is one of the scariest and most ignorant posts I have ever seen on FR. You want someone to be able to sue for stupidity. That is like Soviet Russia where if you disagreed with the state they could simply say that you were insane and have you committed.
If the Washington Post decides to do an expose on “dschapin” of Free Republic and says you have been shown to have dalliances with women in 23 states, as long as the Washington Post said there was no malice, that should be okay?
