Its purpose is to silence free speech.
And, to shut down discussion of any and all subjects which offend the perpetually aggrieved, professional whiners & moaners.
 

The skull behind the Smiley Face of "political correctness" is revealed-- and bear in mind, the Legal Jackal, Richard Warman, behind all this is getting rich, using the law to cudgel people in to silence-- but the threat, to free speech, is real:
 
 The Free Dominion Eight - Which FDers made Warman's lawsuit?... [ 1, 2 ]

 

Connie Fournier wrote:
Oh, yeah, he wants $150,000 in damages, but he is willing to settle this for the bargain price of $10,900.


I can't think of any words that are contemptuous enough to use in response to that.



Backhoe says:
What a sorry, conniving, thieving little bastard.


Abusing the might and majesty of the law to extort money from innocent people.

And, to silence them.

All under the aegis of "rights..."

At least with a common street criminal, you know you are dealing with a crook- he is nothing more than a silk-shirted thief.

Connie, you let us know what you need- me and Miss Emily are far from rich, but we'll scrape the floorboards, and I can always bump the fundraisers with drivel and doggerel and musings from the swamps of Georgia...

Get the meanest, most aggressive lawyer you can find.

 
The above story is a subset of this:
 
Be sure to read it all...
...use the links.

This affects all of us.
 
If Richard Warman, Hyena in a $1,000 suit, can silence one site- he can silence another.

Seems like the Canadian legal entity is the foothold for the loyah. Never ceases to amaze me how they can be so evil and legal at the same time.

Like I said, they may have to divest all holdings to a US non-profit, if it comes to that. It would require a degree of trust, no doubt.

Appreciate your stopping by and commenting.

I gotta run- trying to get the wife's car ready for a trip to Hot-lanta this weekend has turned into a week-long Chinese Fire Drill-- radio, tires, battery, oil. I'll check back as time permits.

Well, when Queen Hillary is on the throne and the Marxists control the Peoples Socialist Congress, then they will do this to us also, but not through lawsuits, but rather through the vote and Hillary’s pen. Talk radio, web sites like Free Republic, any if there are such a thing out there any more called conservative news papers. They will shut them down to protect themselves and their power so that the truth can no longer again see the light of day. Then they will control the news through the MSM.

Good point- I hope this blows up in Richard Warman's face.

I'd like to see a political "money shot" hit him in the face too.

First FR "I could have lived without that visual" of the morning to y'all.

Karl Marx would be so proud of the little experiment Canada is trying to create for itself.

The whole problem is that people are succumbing to the actions of a minute few people. Rising to the top in defiance is the only way to stop those people. Ganging up on those few and intimidation will usually work. Defy the frivolous lawsuits with counter suits.

A few small people can never silence the majority unless the majority allows it to happen. Freedom of speech is a fight for the very core of freedom in general.

AMEN! I'm with you zarkman!!!

Spot on once again!
That small, but vocal minority have kept the US from drilling for oil to become energy independent, removed GOD from the public square and continue to force their ideology on the rest of us with little resistance.

Sorry to here this but we’ve got some pretty good legal minds here. Maybe there’s something we can do to help.

Sounds like that lawyer from FL who was going to sue all of us. Remember him? Jack Something?
