You sound like a rubbish lawyer if that is really your attitude towards it.

- tptacek 13y agoPractice a lot of law, do you?
- moocowduckquack 13y agoLook, he is warning people to watch their mouths over language that clearly isn't actionable and then when challenged is saying that even if it isn't actionable it is best to stay quiet just in case. I don't need to practice law to say that this seems like really bad advice. "Don't publicly theorise about public figures" may be good general advice if you are actively being pursued by a court, however it is appallingly restrictive advice for general life.
- tptacek 13y agoIt clearly isn't actionable? I can rely on your legal expertise for that assessment? Had you heard of per se libel before he brought it up? And, is that what he's saying? "Don't theorize about public figures"? That's not what I read.
