Juan claims that Bob had gone bankrupt.

And FWIW, wouldn't claiming (without factual basis) that someone had
filed for bankruptcy be considered libel?

I'm not a lawyer, nor did I sleep in a Holiday Inn last night, but I believe
that you must prove you've been injured/damaged/whatever by the libel in
order to collect.

It may be possible to have one's ISP cut off service to TOS violations in
such a case though.

It would be an interesting twist - Juan's own attorney attempting to prove
that he has no credibilty, thus no damages.

I once said in a aviation mailing list that it was disreputable at best
to sell plans for a plane that had never flown. The person the comment
was directed at threatened me with a libel suit. My reply was F'off and
die. Funny thing, I never heard from his layer and I still think this
person is a scoundrel. You can speak your mind in public all you want
and unless malice is proven, it's going to be hard to shut anyone up...

Give the man a cigar. That's why I keep telling people this is great
entertainment. Yank the chain, watch the monkeys dance.

Here in the US, actual harm of some sort is an element
of the torts. In the UK there are several differences among
them the concept that a defamatory statement can be
so hideous as to be inherently harmful enough to warrant
legal action.

Clearly, Jaun thinks its both clever and funny to post lies about
people in order to "Yank their Chain". The fact that those lies might
be harmful to them in some way never enters his mind or if it does, he
simply doesn't care. Look at some of the lies he has made up about
Chuck for a clear example. He clearly knows they are lies but repeats
them over and over again just to get a response from Chuck. That is
SICK by any definition. Jaun is the little asshole kid that used to
poke the stick through the fence to torment the neighbors dogs. One
can only hope that some day he will torment a pit-bull who will come
over the fence and tear his heart out (figuratively speaking for sure
BG).

You learned that long before I did, Chimichanga. I told you, you choke every
single time someone forcefeeds you your own bull****.

Didya watch the video or not?
