Thank you for your succinct, clear “simple rule” legal analysis regarding Section 230 immunity clauses.

The “method to your madness”—whether chivalrous or not—was at fault. What I am personally interested from you are comments regarding the topics at hand based on your life experiences and especially those of your lawyering skills—if in fact, you are a bone fide lawyer. You were provoked, but anyone who hijacks another person’s identity is tending towards the psychotic and exhibits completely irrational behavior.

Other than the threads like this one regarding actual identity hijacking of a famous person, let’s you and I drop the subject. We all need to realize how our conduct and words within this blawg reflect on Professor Turley and the fine lawyers who post here using their own names. Without their legal insights, this blawg would be of minimal value to me.

As I previously mentioned soon after you arrived, I do not “get” most of what you post; however, sometimes you have some real insights and posit some good thought. At other times, you are just bizarre, but that is ultimately for the host to deal with.

Ironically, I challenged you and Bron98, both of whom are the subjects of this recent hijack controversy, when you were telling a visitor—whom you both anointed a troll—to basically go commit suicide and you eventually issued a mea culpa that you did not want to pull a Nancy Grace. This fine blawg should not be a repository of such junk thought as there are millions of other such cesspools available online. To date, we all know who did what to whom, so please just give us the benefit of your knowledge and wit, use only *1 nom de plume*, and please keep the abject bizarreness at bay, at least on this blawg which highlights mostly current legal issues.

I have no clout or power to exact your compliance, but I simply ask of you and others that we all respect Professor Turley’s site. During these last few months, his detractors could have visited here and stated with validity and conviction that a large number of his supporters are verifiable kooks. Furthermore, by his admission that he knew what was occurring and then did nothing to protect the integrity of his regulars who were unequivocally following the blawg’s netiquette, then he became somewhat culpable because of his nonintervention.

Obviously, Professor Turley has a profound respect for the First Amendment, as do some others and I who post within these virtual walls. However, because this is a human endeavor, there must be unambiguous rules to protect the integrity of all who visit and post, regulars and non-regulars alike. Hijacking another poster’s identity must be the greatest infraction punishable by quick expulsion with the concurrent announcement of the charlatan’s screen name to protect others and to prevent harmful speculation of who allegedly did what.

Thank you. I anticipate the best of good, witty, parodic, snarky-but-fair, non-sophomoric, and sans ad hominem attack postings ahead from everybody responding to the famous wit and legalistic bearing of Professor Jonathan Turley.

That has very little to do with me, in my view. I don’t usually have much problem with people having insights about me.

I know that I’m pretty low-maintenance, generally, but that I also have an exceptional appreciation of the finer things which I fully admit to, and for which I make no apology. I also enjoy sharing that part with good friends and family, very much
- which I’ve demonstrated, many times, in typical turleestyle.

I cannot dispute what you have stated. And I meant it that way. So if anyone is going to be the whipping “boy” Jill has been left alone.

Professor Turley banned one imposter/cheat/charlatan/fraud/sham and phony from this site and the other is inconsistently bizarre in his denials/admissions, so I guess we will never know.

As a Cubbie, I cannot express sympathy for a former White Sox’er but I get your point on an abstract level.
