Lawyer Trolls

Short version - scumbag lawyer files frivolous lawsuit against "The Oatmeal."

His readers respond by donating $60,000 to his cause

When I'm sued, I hope the Cappy Cappites will come through for me the same.  In the meantime help out "The Oatmeal" because it's people like him, SDA, Blazing Cat Fur, and even myself, that pay the price tolerating DB lawyer trolls while we write to protect freedom and expose tyranny.

Awesome, ain't it? Did you catch Ken from Popehat in the comments? $70 grand in 7 hours! And FJ's members are spamming the comment section with porn.

If his website isn't incorporated, he can choose to represent himself at the trial! If you research it well, you can do it better than a lawyer. A jury might be sympathetic to a pro se defendant vs. an expensive lawyer in a frivolous lawsuit.

FSK, he's getting offers of pro-bono counsel. And the donations are well over $100,000. He has plenty of options...
