ALEX JONES pay up bitch!!

[Sculptor]

So today ALex Jones was fined a cool $1billion

Does this mean that other Fake News people are going to have to STFU? Or is the American obsession with So-called "free speech" going to bugger up the process?

You have no right to say those things so I'm suing you for defamation.

Time for Alex to establish a GoFundMe account!

Seriously tho, fifty million dollars to a couple parents who lost a kid a decade ago is a bit much. You'll hear the democrat pundits say 'no amount of money can heal the wounds those families suffered yada yada yada' when reporting on the Jones verdict... but that's a buncha bologna. Believe me, those parents are long past mourning their child's death, and when that dad dude started crying and buried his face in his hands, what he wasn't thinking wuz 'oh thank God justice is served' but 'holy shit are we about to go on a sirius cruise, Mildred.'

Fifty million dollars. That jury has lost it's frickin mind. I'd let you kill my kid twice for fifty million dollars. Fuck outta here.

Telling deliberate lies in order to stir up violence and social unrest has nothing to do with 'free speech'. Then again, if y'all were not idiots then he wouldn't be a problem. How many intelligent followers does he have, I wonder.

No, I didn't know about it. I was just being my old sarcastic obnoxious self, but it doesn't surprise me he'd be fund-raising. What's most unbelievable but probably true, he's going to raise plenty!

You can't do that since the remarks are not directed at you.
The degree of compensation has to reflect the degree of harm and trauma.
And the ability to pay.
I would imagine that in this case also the judgement is designed to deter Jones from his dangerous rantings in future.

I am given to understand he already has. However such doubling down is going to land him deeper in the sh1t, since the facts are clear in this case.

No I do not think so.
You are not them and cannot tell their anguish.
a billion $ is punitive, but he deserves it.

A parent never gets over the death of a child especially when a c*nt like Jones is making money out fo their misery. DO try to use your imagination!

It reflects how much Jones has made out of other's misery.

Well, education has never been free...

$1 billion to learn that freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences.

If there are 'consequences' then it's not 'free speech'. You might as well say that the Nazis had 'free speech'. You could say what you like, but the 'consequence' was death. What Jones does isn't 'free speech'. It's an abuse of the term. Americans are very 'picky' about what they call 'free speech'. Julian Assange has been tortured for years for exposing America's and Britain's atrocities in the ME.

Yeah hopefully that fat fuck will STFU.
I suppose he''ll crawl back under his rock for a while. But I doubt he will disbelieve his own lies.

Said like the ignoramus that you are.

Free speech is between you and the government. They can't send you to the Gulags if you call them incompetent, thieving assholes without merit.
Free speech is not between you and your car mechanic. He can sue you for libel if you call him an incompetent, thieving asshole without merit.

Said like the ignoramus that you are. Who said anything about car mechanics? Why would you ASSume that I think SLANDER is free speech? YOU are the one who said FREE SPEECH doesn't mean FREEDOM FROM CONSEQUENCES. Well actually it does, or should.
