    1. You are clearly not a lawyer. You only need to suffer some kind of harm to claim defamation.

  1. Why doesn’t someone build bronze statues on campus of all the children who have been killed for future generations. A memoriam. Not a vacation for the parents to the Caribbean.

  2. im so glad to see these vile, evil misinformation slingers finally held liable for their ignorant babble. too bad its only civil. give it time and thatll change. baby steps.

  3. The greatest “OBSTACLES” To Free Speech, A Honest Unbiased Media, Legitimate Elections, Peace, The Public’s Safety, Affordable Housing, Financial Prosperity, A Clean Environment, Affordable Health care, Law and Order, and Basic Constitutional freedoms, is to elect a “Democrat” in to office at any level government!!
