Are there some references to specific cases you can cite? What was thought to be free speech might not be that in today's world?

From a quick net search:https://www.google.com/search?q=man...57.63544j0j7&sourceid=chrome&es_sm=0&ie=UTF-8

I'm not advocating this type of behavior by manufacturers, BUT I am seeking to make members here on TBN aware that what they say could come back to bite them. Especially if they lash out in anger/frustration over how a manufacturer handles their particular issue(s).

Well in that case, every single brand is a rip-off, since if you look in each brand section, you will see some issues. Granted the over-cooling, not coming up to temp issue is important, and you have some sort of issue with your loader valve, but I think it is a bit of a reach to then declare an entire brand a rip-off.

Does free speech mean you can slander someone or a company? There is a difference, for example, in saying someone is an arse than saying they are a crook. One is pure opinion, the other needs substantiation. I am all for free speech, and think everyone should be able to express themselves, even if they are racists, offensive and ignorant, it keeps the morons visible, but bashing a person's or company's reputation is unfair.

Agreed. And it's beyond unfair, it's illegal, which is why slander and libel laws are on the books, and enforceable. And one does not get a free pass because they have internet access to a forum like TBN. The written and spoken word are powerful tools, which is why free speech is protected, but protection is NOT a license to state falsehoods in a public venue.
I'm not implying that anyone in this thread is doing so, just pointing out the risk one takes when speaking their mind in a venue like TBN, unless what they say is in fact true.

Murph, keep buying the Echos and that will leave more Stihls for me.:thumbsup:
