Truth Is Not a Defense
I am not really that interested in the underlying story about Orlando police chief Val Demings (the examples of screw-ups are pretty mild as police malfeasance go). But Demmings has gone the extra mile of threatening to sue a blogger who is critical of her. My general policy in such a case is to give the blogger lots of free links. Nothing better limits this kind of stupid attempts at censorship than having them backfire into national attention. The money quote comes from Demings attorney, who says, "Truth is not always a defense."
