Comments on: Roll bloat – more oppressor vs. oppressed http://norunnyeggs.com/2008/03/roll-bloat-more-oppressor-vs-oppressed/ The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

In all criminal prosecutions or indictments for libel, the truth may be given in evidence, and if it shall appear to the jury that the matter charged as libelous be true, and was published with good motives and for justifiable ends, the party shall be acquitted; and the jury shall have the right to determine the law and the fact.</blockquote> The reason why I specified the Wisconsin Constitution is that the 1st Amendment to the federal Constitution is properly applied only to the federal government (not that that particular view has a wide audience in even the legal world). Article I, Section 3 of the Wisconsin Constitution:

Every person may freely speak, write and publish his sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right, and no laws shall be passed to restrain or abridge the liberty of speech or of the press. In all criminal prosecutions or indictments for libel, the truth may be given in evidence, and if it shall appear to the jury that the matter charged as libelous be true, and was published with good motives and for justifiable ends, the party shall be acquitted; and the jury shall have the right to determine the law and the fact.
