First Amendment Rights

Freedom of Speech.

I figure since I believe in Freedom of Speech, I should let anyone post comments.
The test of Freedom of Speech is, "Do you allow others to criticize you?"
Naturally you have to option to take someone to court if they tell un-truths, be they "Libel" or "Slander".

Wiki says... " Slander refers to a malicious, false, and defamatory spoken statement or report, while libel refers to any other form of communication such as written words or images."

So, Slander = Spoken, Libel = Written. Just remember Slander = Spoken and you'll easily remember the other.

OK, that's it on Freedom of Speech.
