  • WTF, Montana?

     

    My friend's cousin snapped a photo of this while driving through Montana, in case any of you wanted to keep making the case that it's atheists that do all the discrimination in America. What's next, an ad with the Star of David and the slogan "They killed our savior, what if you're next?"

    @RealistFantasies - my memory of this stuff is a bit hazy, but I think slander and libel are both types of defamation. Libel is generally written, slander is spoken and everything else (if I remember correctly). You can't have both (or at least I can't think of scenario where one action is both libel and slander).


    But all kinds of defamation have to be individualized. Like, if I printed a newspaper article saying "RealistFantasy rapes children" it may be be defamation. If I publish a paper saying "Christians rape children" that is not defamatory. The general idea is that the right to free speech is so important that we don't want to restrict it unless the harms are concrete and serious.

    @RealistFantasies - "the first amendment doesn't protect hate speech, and this is hate speech."


    Yes it does.


    Scalia and the liberal justices teamed up to clarify the matter: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._A._V._v._City_of_St._Paul


    "it's also slanderous."


    Not really. Who does the billboard slander? Legally, slander has to be both (i) malicious and (ii) false.

  • RealistFantasies

    @LoBornlytesThoughtPalace@revelife - this is malicious AND false.
    "if god doesn't matter to him you do?"
    what are the implications?
    a. atheists don't care about you because they don't care about a false deity
    b. atheists are murderers because they don't care
    both false and malicious.
    "Whoever places on public or private property, a symbol, object,
    appellation, characterization or graffiti, including, but not limited
    to, a burning cross or Nazi swastika, which one knows or has reasonable
    grounds to know arouses anger, alarm or resentment in others on the
    basis of race, color, creed, religion or gender commits disorderly
    conduct and shall be guilty of a misdemeanor."
