For certain such a speech would not be possible in the United States of 2013, and I suspect it would not be likely in Oz, either.

Your sarcastic tones (or at least, self-degrading, in your ‘about the editor’ page), make me think this character is purely a character, but just to check: is this really your opinions (the entire site) or are you simply playing a character)

The reason I use a pseudonym is to avoid unnecessary harassment from fools for expressing my opinion.

An individual who’s first reaction is to threaten a lawsuit, instead of more reasonably and constructively correcting an error or arguing against an opinion is just the sort of person I hope to avoid.

Are you afraid of a law-suit from people you defame? Martin Luther was a piece of deranged scum, but at least he had guts.
