What if the post had said that Phaneuf was a scientologist? or gay? Would you support his ability to restrict freedom of expression in the same way?
I am really curious how CP would re-act, if one of the posters here got sued because they made a post that said that Phaneuf was playing poorly because he was obviously injured. I very much doubt that the reaction here would be the same type of defense of Phaneuf's rights.

I can't decide if you are just an amazing troll, or if you are actually this clueless about the differences between opinion and libel/defamation and what Freedom of Speech ACTUALLY legally means.
I'm leaning towards Troll, because I refuse to believe anyone could be this stupid, unless it's willfully so.
