Wow. This is an exceedingly rare example of where:
1) The slipperly slope argument actually works. They are aready half way down the slope if this is considered harassment. As noted, any contrary position could be considered harassment; and
2) both free speech advocates and harassment victims stand to lose in this one. I am sure there are many examples of twitter actions that could be reasonably seen as harassment, and this case made it to trial? Why wouldn't the first trial be one where, you know, an actual threat was uttered? Brutal.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
