I don't know that it's libel but I don't know that the statement is true or not either? A person makes a statement like that, and you want to know how they know this. A response of 'well, I have my sources" what does that mean? maybe he hears voices in his head, or he has 'visions". so lets say the person posts things that were or turned out to be true in the past. that doesn't mean that THIS statement is true.

but I was trying to say that there must be SOME things that even you would say, gee maybe that kind of stuff shouldn't be posted, it's really getting close at a minimum to crossing the line of what is libelous and what isn't and it PROBABLY is libelous, in the absence of proof. and comon guys, lets show a little restraint here. and so, I believe that there are cases as I said, that, if there's a situation where errors are being made, maybe it's better to err on the side of the recipient of the post by removing the post, rather than err on the side of poster by allowing those types of posts to remain.
