He did not ‘steal’ the phones from these assholes. He grabbed and tossed them. That’s illegal, but not a criminal act. He was legally wrong but morally right, imho.

As a matter of fact, he is kind of busy these days...

That’s not even remotely part of his job description. Getting in another person’s face and taking pictures of someone eating without asking for consent is rude as hell. Be a rude asshole, get the rude asshole treatment. Fair is fair.

Eighth, it’s actually not an uncivil or crude term but one that derives from Freudian psychoanlysis. Ninth, you must be a graduate of the US public school system.

her social life (“Once I have eaten and danced, and I have spoken to everyone, I want to go to bed”), and migration (“I spend winters in Miami, spring and fall in New York, and in summer, I have a 300-year-old fisherman’s house in St. Tropez”).

Sixth, you’re anally retentive, but you knew that already, didn’t you?

You’d only be sympathetic to a cop if he had to risk his life to save yours and even then you’d probably call him a ‘pig’, bc that’s what the cool kids do these days. You deserve an unanswered 911 call.

What’s the thing with these two? He was married before and she had a child out of wedlock, so it’s not that they want to preserve their virginity until after the wedding. Religious nuts!

literally no behavior after the assault somehow negates the fact that the assault took place.

That’s insane. This guy fired one shot in the dark that ricocheted and hit Gurley by accident. Did he act neglicent by pulling the trigger after hearing a sound in the dark on a stairwell? Absolutely. Did he kill a black man in cold blood execution style or slowly strangle him to death like so many other cops did.…

In other words, the plaintiff must prove that the publisher failed to do something she was required to do. Depending on the circumstances, the plaintiff will either need to prove that the defendant acted negligently, if the plaintiff is a private figure, or with actual malice, if the plaintiff is a public figure or…

That’s the risk he’s taking, but look at it this way, wouldn’t you do the same if you weren’t a drug addict and someone tried to smear you, just bc he thought you’d be too chicken to react? If Woods succeeds, a lot of anonymous trolls will think twice about doing the same. Just bc he’s an unlikeable asshat doesn’t…

It’s hard to argue with someone who is acting willfully obtuse. A random drug test doesn’t prove addiction, just like a random blood test after two glasses of wine doesn’t prove alcoholism. Woods could take the witness stand and admit past drug use, as long as the defense can’t prove drug addiction, making the claim…

If I knew your name, could I call you a child molester on social media and force you to prove that you don’t like to feel up little boys or girls? Just reverse the burden of proof and thereby pervert the legal system.

Are you this stupid? I was specifically referring to this comment:

There is a huge difference between someone who did blow in his life and a coke addict, like there is adifference betwen someone who enjoys a glass of wine or whiskey every now and then and an alcoholic. This guy would have to prove, that Woods is a drug addict. Good luck with that.

Shorter: lack of melanin!

If this critic had written a less than flattering review, describing Sandra Bullocks’s physical appearance in Miss Congeniality, where she plays an undercover cop in a beauty contest, you would not have approved, that’s for sure.

That’s a straw man argument, the defamation itself is hurtful. Not acting upon a public defamation would give it more credibility, not less, imo. If a neighbour would accuse you of a crime in the neigbourhood, wouldn’t you take legal action to quench the rumors once and for all for everyone to see?

Depending on the role, the camera angle, the costume, and the hair and makeup, Mr. Stiller, 50, swings between polarities of trollishness and desirability. In some movies, he appears dwarfish and deformed with a head that’s too big for his body and empty space-alien eyes. He is of average height but looks shorter. And…
