I got with a lawyer back then, and he laughed out loud at the case... public figure, and the damage his own reputation after he wished AIDS on message board members, to go after a small time web designer in FL.
The advice I was given was to go at him harder, only use gimmicks to do it

LOL @ 'one-way' ticket!
And yes. Anyone stupid enough to fly across the country to 'bitch slap' me on my own property will be dealt with completely legally. I suppose that macho bullshit talk works in jersey clubs. Down here in redneck country it's called a justified shooting.
