Why not just go ahead and get on with it?
Why would I want to sue anyone?
I'd just like him to stop with the libel, and I fully expect my final warning will be sufficient.
It still seems rather odd that you cannot understand at all why the disabled should have parking spaces.
Perhaps that lack of understanding is in its self a symptom of a disability. In which case, we should leave you usenet space to spout your lack of comprehension without taking the [censored].
This is your final warning. You are no longer in my kill file. If you libel me again, I will instruct lawyers to take action against you.

That's libel. It's not a "troll". I haven't been "routed" and I don't have any "anti-disabled persons" viewpoints.

So you deny, amongst other opinions, that you posted:
Quoted message said:
"Personally I don't see why disabled folk should get special treatment."
I wrote that. It is true. "I don't see why" does not state or imply an "anti disabled persons viewpoint". In fact I think everyone should be treated equally.
Let's remind you of another post you made regarding the disabled: "If they get one privileged, then another, then another, pretty soon I'll be a second class citizen brought down to their level. Is that right? I don't think so."

Except that by definition giving them "equal" treatment when they have unequal access amounts to discrimination.
Quite.
He also posted: "If they get one privileged, then another, then another, pretty soon I'll be a second class citizen brought down to their level. Is that right? I don't think so."
That doesn't sound much like equal treatment at all.

Can anybody actually provide any evidence of this happening to them, or is this story just another attempt by the media to banish cycling to the outer reaches of normality. I have personally been cycling for around 10 years during which time I have fathered 2 children and had no problems in the lower regions. I suspect that the exercise actually improves circulation and increases blood flow to that area. I do however stand to be corrected.
I have seen a study cited that runners generally have a higher sperm count than those who don't exercise. I would imagine cycling would give some similar benefits.
On the article generally, it seems that this story appears every few years. I wouldn't worry about it.

It sounds a lot like plain old-fashioned bigotry to me. Not that I'm likely to visit uk.tosspot to find out the complete context, because life is too short to visit that place more than once.

As you would see if you were a genuine contributor rather than a troll there are already two active threads quoting this story.
Hey, he hasn't threatened you with libel. I thought he was after equal treatment for all? Then why's he giving Paul B special treatment. The rest of us want to be threatened with court action as well.

In other news, car drivers continue to kill people in large numbers, speeding motorists continue to try to shift the problem onto their victims, drivers stuck in traffic while commuting short distances across towns continue to blame other drivers, buses, commercial vehicles, the Government and the Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy for their plight, and the chances of an intelligent thread involving Paul Smith remain at zero.
