I'm not the one whining and bitching over the refusal to show a lousy movie. I'm simply pointing out how absurd your "outrage" is over the decision not to show a movie that some people don't agree with. How is this any worse than students demanding that certain speakers be banned because their views differ from the students? Is that outrageous?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-76707232920877224672017-07-02T20:36:09.426-05:002017-07-02T20:36:09.426-05:00@8:07 --

REALLY? The refusal...This is "outrage?" REALLY? The refusal to show a documentary is an outrageous act? Outrage is what is happening to the people of Mosul while ISIS tries to hang on to its last base, using innocent men, women and children as human shields against bullets. Outrage is terrorists blowing up car bombs, or running over innocent people on the London Bridge. Outrage is a man walking into a restaurant in Paris and opening fire on innocent people, killing several. Outrage is a doctor going into a hospital in Bronx, NY and opening fire against helpless people.<br /><br />The refusal to show a movie is not outrage. It may be insensitive, it may be obstructive, it may be unfair. But it isn't outrage. It is the act of a private entity who had the right to show the movie or not.<br /><br />The board was doing nothing more than exercising its right (and your precious right) to exercise free speech. They are not a governmental entity, and thus, can say or do what they want, or refuse to show something it or its board deems offensive, misleading, and yes, even defamatory.<br /><br />To defame someone does not require anything other than allegations. Your tortured analysis of what is required for defamation is based upon a claim that one is damaged by defamation. The board's declaration that the movie defames Ms. Canary or shows her in a false light is nothing more than a statement. <br /><br />Put your outrage in your pocket for something that truly deserves it, Snowflake.

Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />So Canary went behind closed doors and begged her fellow board members not to show the film.<br /><br />I'm sure no board member had the guts to say:<br /><br />(1) Leura, would you take questions and testify under oath, on video, about these issues? Would you do this with a member of the Siegelman/Scrushy defense team asking questions?<br /><br />(2) Would you write an open letter to the DOJ, encouraging them to release all documents about your recusal, instead of stonewalling for 11 years?legalschnauzerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09619089628125964154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-80057413266925310972017-06-28T16:12:55.984-05:002017-06-28T16:12:55.984-05:00New information in Montgomery Advertiser article t...New information in Montgomery Advertiser article today about Siegelman film:<br /><br /><br />http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/story/news/politics/southunionstreet/2017/06/27/capri-cancels-showing-don-siegelman-film/434050001/<br /><br /><br />"The board member isn’t named.

A timid Board could destroy the Capri's repetition. Please don't boycott. Instead let's wash out the timid Board. Surely there are many more members that want a bold screen than favor censorship. If someone doesn't like the film they could try to sue to film maker but I don't appreciate their attempt to keep the film from me. I will ask tomorrow when there is a Board election and comment on Josh's posting at the Capri Facebook page with what I've found out. Perhaps some will volunteer their services to serve on the Board by commenting that posting by Josh.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05771270880448027414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-52416795579661599832017-06-27T15:44:17.067-05:002017-06-27T15:44:17.067-05:00Two-point memo to Mr. McCaffrey:
