You’re all going to get this thread shut down YET AGAIN with the personal attacks. Can’t we move on to the here and now? Actually ignore the people you say you are ignoring.
{{{{{HUGS}}}}}} Given who we are talking about, I don’t know that it would have mattered one way or the other. People who deal with her are damned if they do and damned if they don’t. Had MB not taken her on as a client, she would have had defamatory things to say about him. It may not have had the same conclusion, but I bet it would have been ugly regardless. That guilt should not be laid at your feet. Put it aside. It does you no good.
Of course the threat that LK made to KM about putting a lien on her property was an empty threat. Obviously LK would need to launch a defamation lawsuit, prove damages, reject retraction or apology, and find a lawyer who would actually launch a suit on such a tiny thing. also if anyone could drag up a post where LK claimed to have a Ruger, the suit would be lost.
For me, the real interest in that private message was it showed quite a bit about how LK operates and tries to intimidate and that she is used to fighting with more marginal or uneducated or fragile opponents. There is indeed a whole cohort of people out there who run around saying “i’m going to sue” just like there are babysitters who say “I’m going to call the police on you if you don’t go to bed right now” (I called the bluff on that at age 9). Or “you can’t park in front of my house, I’ll have you arrested.” It is meant to be intimidation because the legal threat is entirely empty.
Escalating to these kinds of ridiculous psuedo-legal threats is often the hall mark of the neighborhood blowhard nutcase.
But it can also show that the person making the threats employs magical thinking and imagines you can just point at someone’s property and seize it. I expect there isn’t a lawyer in the world that would recommend going ahead with a defamation lawsuit for something that small and questionable.
The correct response to someone making pseudo legal threats is to publicize what they are doing and laugh at them with scorn. As was done here.
I am what I am. I would tell you what you want to know if I could, for you have been kind to me. But I am a cat, and no cat anywhere ever gave anyone a straight answer.
I’ll tell you what……I wanna help my friend KM recoup her losses.
I’ll take all bets that Barisone is not home for Christmas.
What is wrong with you people.
[edit]
Nope, same old trip trapping across the bridge balderdash. It’s Sooooooo boring!
I honestly can’t fathom how / why people can’t help themselves from responding.
Leave it where it belongs….
