If, as you say, he is a drug dealer I doubt he will be going to the police to file charges against you. And as Mr. K points out, he could sue you for libel and not go to the police. But that would be a very expensive proposition for him.

Still concern trolling. Well let me put your fears at rest.

Firstly he is posting anonymously, as am I. Unless his name is actually "conserving freedom", you can't argue libel because no person has been identified.

Secondly I called him a "Dope Pusher", i.e. someone who is pushing dope, and in a discussion forum can only mean advocating dope, which can be factually demonstrated by a perusal of his posts. The Truth is the ultimate defense against libel.

Thirdly, I don't give a sh*t.

You are not truly anonymous on the internet. There are people here who know my name, for example, as well as non-FReepers who know that I post here under this screen name. I suspect that is the case with many of us. From the EFF =>

To state a defamation claim, the person claiming defamation need not be mentioned by name—the plaintiff only needs to be reasonably identifiable.

Oh dear. Good luck convincing a court with that argument.
