    Cheap ad hominen off the point.

    See Illinois under states that do recognize defamation per se.

    It is unfortunate when the law, the very least of what we should expect from ourselves, has to step in where common decency ought to suffice.

    My point in responding to this post was to say that everyone who commented imputed to me the selfish and false motive of trying to prevent people from speaking their minds or, worse, from insulting me, when my intent was to point out there is such a thing as stepping over the line and that the law is moving in where morals have failed. I do not want to engage in the same discussion all over again when it was already terminated.

    The point is, don't call people liars unless you can prove that they are. It is neither "charming" nor wise.

    There are few of us here who cannot benefit from such reflections, myself included, although I am not anonymous.
