I've seen you say this on a couple occasions saltcreep, and I'm beginning to wonder if you acutally have valuable content to contribute to this forum, or if you are just here to troll for reactions and irratants?

Tell me what you think and how it is relevent to this discussion. There are many parallels. By the way, I believe that defamation of character or slander can easily get you in a heap of trouble in this country.

Firstly, there is NO correlation between what happens in the US legal system and the Canadian one. They are completely independant systems with vast differences in both criminal and civil law. Based on your assumption does that mean that because a convicted criminal is executed in Texas that now Canadian courts will start ordering executions because "a precedence has been set in the US courts"? Dig YOUR head out of the sand.

Secondly, the guy instigating those lawsuits in the US is a f#$'n moron. He deserves everything he gets in counter-suits and frankly I find it amusing that he's filed for bankrupcy. I'm sure he could have dealt with the entire situation in a more reasonable maner, but due to the litigious nature of Americans he decided to try to get the courts to provide him financial compensation for his (Quote) "headaches, nausea, nervousness, anxiety, embarrassment, humiliation and mental distress".

While I'm not one for defaming, embarrasing or otherwise demeaning anyone on this or any other forum, I do believe that I am entitled to my "opinion" and as long as my "opinion" does not cause anyone financial or physical harm or violates any Canadian law I say we should all be allowed to speak our minds.

And ditto to Wendell's comments, I don't recall seeing that "But" in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms either.
