No, they won the money because he told lies he knew were false to people who stalked,harassed, and threatened the parents and continued to do so after knowing the effect it was having. If Alex Jonea had simply stopped and told his listeners that the shooting was real and stop harassing these parents after learning of the issues it cause he likely wiulsnt be sued or at the least for not nearly aa much. Like I said, the bar is really high for these kinds of cases. There has to be a flagrant disregard for the truth and actual damages incurred by the victims.

Here's the thing, tap

As long as you are against the government and establishment, you are guilty of... Whatever they need you to be

If you are a seal supportive of the establishment, you will never have a need for a trial

But hurt feelings is big $$$$$

It pays to have some booooohooooo in your life
 
Awww the scared little bitch is out of arguments (again)

He used to be a.formidible opponent but now a simple seal. So cuuuuuuute
 
Now that they have gotten Alex Jones.... Surely they will set their targets on Epstein's clients...


Right?

Uh, yeah, sick burn, so you think "they" forced Alex Jones to post the home addresses of crime victims and tell nut jobs they are part of a conspiracy to take away their guns? Maybe they also forced him to refuse ro comply with discovery? You also have to be a naive clapping seal to think Alex Jones is going anywhere. He could/would have a prime time spot on Fox news tomorrow if he would reign in the crazy just enough to keep them from more defemation lawsuits. So naturally you bought it completely.

The standard is very different for public vs non public. And if you are referring to Trump, when did he have a good reputation in which to slander? The 80's? He would be the one getting sued into bankruptcy under your wrong assumptions. Please ask me for an list of false statements he made slandering someone or their families character. Also, Jones lost because he refused to comply with discovery. He still would have lost anyways, but this way its easier to paint himself aa the victim to the clapping seals like in this fhread.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York’s latest attempt to restrict who can carry a handgun in public and where firearms can be brought was picked apart Thursday by a federal judge, who ruled that multiple provisions in a state law passed this year are unconstitutional.

In a ruling that doesn’t take effect immediately, U.S. District Judge Glenn Suddaby struck down key elements of the state’s hurried attempt to rewrite its handgun laws after the old ones were struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court in June.

The state can’t ban people from carrying guns in New York City’s subway system or Times Square, the judge ruled, though he said it did have a right to exclude guns from certain other locations, including schools.

Several of the state’s new licensing rules went too far, he wrote, including one that required applicants to be of “good moral character,” and another that made applicants turn over information about their social media accounts.

The end result was a licensing scheme that prohibited people from carrying a handgun for self-defense unless the applicant could persuade licensing officials that they wouldn’t use it to hurt themselves or others, the judge wrote.

“Simply stated, instead of moving toward becoming a shall-issue jurisdiction, New York State has further entrenched itself as a shall-not-issue jurisdiction. And, by doing so, it has further reduced a first-class constitutional right to bear arms in public for self defense ... into a mere request,” wrote Suddaby, who sits in Syracuse.

Bravo!

Are there never any consequences for breaking out laws by passing these blatantly unconstitutional laws?

No, because the constitution is a concept where people just make up whatever they want. What you say is blatantly unconstitutional could be rules constitutional depending on the justices. If it worked like you keep texting to convince yourself it does, thousands of Republican state legislatures would have been in prison for passing unconstitutional, at the time, anti abortion laws. I would guess most would have already served their time by the time of this most recent court changed that.



But dont let me stop you from wondering out loud why something that has never worked that way in 250 years of this countries existence doesnt suddenly start working that way because you dont like the President.
