So I hear cons are out in the open defending antisemites on twitter?

Heard about this earlier. Does that have any legs? Did Kanye ever disparage Floyd?

 

They are trying the Alex Jones/Sandyhook playbook.Kanye caused distress to Floyds family by lying about his death.

 

In a way by saying Floyd died by OD when the medical examiners said Chavon caused his death.

 

yeah, that's going nowhere. Enough bad press can push him to a settlement tho

 

Sandy hook families just got a billion dollar ruling with the same argument though.I think it has legs.

The risk of similar judgement at trial probably causes Kanye to settle for more than the city paid Floyds family imo.

 

Actually 2 rulings.They won in Texas and Connecticut with the same argument.

 

apples and oranges

 

How so?

 

right off the top of my head (we need ocho to tear it apart):
1) Floyd did have drugs in his system so "implying" death by OD isn't disparaging, just erroneous/speculative.
2) Distress over words isn't a payable thing (1st amendment).
3) Sandy Hook families were hammered w/years of continuous harassment spurred by continuous accusation of Jones, even after being warned of the damage he was causing. These aren't "hurt feelings" these are cultists hanging to Jones every word going to people's properties and physically making their life a living hell. Read Stochastic terrorism
4) Kanye's visibly mental. We don't jail/punish people for saying shit when mentally ill in this country. Think adult w/down's saying this shit.
5) The OD theory did not originate w/Kanye, fox ran w/it for weeks so he's just parroting MAGA talking points.

Hopefully Kanye feels embarrassed/guilty/remorseful/nutty enough to pay up if the press runs w/the story (I find it hard for it to take off there too).

 

Disagree.When the words are a lie it can be a payable thing.I waiting for some legal experts to give opinions.
