Former Observer wrote: » My understanding is that he expressed his belief that the shooting was staged and that other people bought into that theory. If I'm the Pope and I encourage people to read the bible does that make me responsible when someone goes on a killing spree citing the word of God? And for those of you of an anti-theist persuasion, there are plenty of secular examples also.

Former Observer wrote: » But is it libelous? If I believe Elvis Presley is alive but his family disagrees and moreover find the very notion upsetting, surely there is enough space in the world for both opinions.
Former Observer wrote: » Ok. But the accusations against me almost certainyl need to include incriminating (and spurious) evidence. Whichever activity I'm accused of would be illegal. If it's merely the case that you're saying I'm standing outside schools then I'm not sure. Interesting conundrum though. As I've said, I'm happier to live in a world where there are forums where people can discuss unpopular opinions, including those of the crisis actor/staged shooting variety. Where you draw the line and what that line looks like is the question.

As was mentioned in another thread its shït like this that will get the Orange Buffoon reelected in 2020.

Former Observer wrote: » Sure he did. And there are plenty of people out there that still believe it discussing it right now on other forums. Should they all be brought up for libel? I don't understand the significance of this to your argument. I mean, if he stood by his belief and it could be proved that it was sincere and deeply felt what would change for you?

Louis Farrakhan, the anti-semite and anti-white racist cnut was also banned but you'll notice that the Alex Jones fans ignored him in their whataboutery. It's almost as if this talk of free speech is little more than a smokescreen.
