Just Talked To A Lawyer!

Nice to have friends from the Corvette world...

The topic was defamation, slander and libel.

Truth and opinion are positive defenses and a blog is protected speech; so there isn't a real worry.

I mentioned some people disparagingly by name.

Their names have been removed on his advice.

What I said about them was my opinion colored by what were presented to me as factual information provided by their friends and relatives and were primarily intended to be illustrative of the abuses of the welfare system by people who are able bodied and otherwise employable.

They are no longer named and it is extremely doubtful that any actionable harm came to them as a result of being so named.
