The $PLC?

the doctrine of vicarious liability

20+ years ago the $PLC won a civil law suit against Tom Metzger, his son, and his white supremacist group. The suit was on behalf of a victim of a vicious murder by skinheads of a defenseless black man.

"Using the doctrine of vicarious liability, plaintiffs' attorneys argued that the Metzgers should be found liable for intentionally inciting the skinheads to engage in violent confrontations with minorities. A jury agreed, returning a record $12.5 million verdict against the Metzgers and WAR. Tom Metzger was personally responsible for $5.5 million of that sum."

IIRC the skinheads were not members. They had been exposed to what WAR was putting out publicly. Kinda like NBC.

In those relatively rare cases of white-on-black violence, and even when the motive is clearly not racial, the civil rights industry and the victims industry rush to profit from the deaths. They rush to benefit both ideologically and financially -- augmented by lies like Palin did it, Limbaugh did it, the "teabaggers" did it . . .

Who influences these murderers?

Their friends and families? The lucrative civil rights and victims' industries? Sharpton? Jessie Jackson? ABCNNBCBS? The Nytimese? The Latimese? Who?

A civil trial would likely uphold the doctrine of vicarious liability in these cases too. Jackson, Sharpton, the New Black Panther Party, and the civil rights and victims' industries have deep pockets. Hurry while at least a couple of the MSM still have deep pockets.

Thank you, a VERY interesting idea. Sharpton, Jackson, SPLC, NAACP et el would shit their collective pants with the threat of personal liability, we could sell tickets for that show...
