Slander is spoken word, libel is written word.And to opine in America , which is what we do here, is Constitutionally protected speech not subject to defamation laws.

(I don't believe either of these statements, btw)

Palpatine and his lawyer butties are ticked off because the Florida Legislature has proven the activist courts to have limits which the elected representatives can set and are beginning to set. The taboo structure of our society has been raped and pillaged by the lawyers and activist judges for too long. Now, as some limits are beginning to arise, the self-appointed societal engineers (like Palpatine and his lawyer butties) are pissed because they will not have free run to mutate the society as fills thier pockets. Besides, Mr. Schindler invited the POS Michael Schiavo to sue him to give him the legal recourse to do 'discovery'.
