    Jeet Heer Retweeted Chuck Ross

    It's true that Stone's words -- i.e. "prepare to die cock sucker" -- were legal jargon, like habeas corpus, assure, and supra.https://twitter.com/ChuckRossDC/status/1092102883024257024 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Chuck RossVerified account @ChuckRossDC
    Stone made a legal threat, not a physical one. He mentioned taking the dog in a text in which he says he's going to sue Credico. https://twitter.com/benjaminwittes/status/1092062975849103361 …

        Was it not the Buddha himself who urged us all to prepare for death by right action while living?

        With Stone, that might have been a proposition.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        It’s pretty clear that “taking” the dog here refers to receiving ownership rights to it as satisfaction for the legal judgment he’s threatening to pursue. In other words, a threat of legal process. Chuck has this right, and @lawfare does not.

        @ChuckRossDC did not say “legal jargon.” You said that he said “legal jargon.” Then blamed him for it. His reference to Stone’s inadvisable statement regarding Credico’s dog was within the context of a legal threat.

        There is a long legal tradition covering this, all the way back to ancient Rome even our entire legal system would be nothing without Catallus' landmark legal treatise "Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo"
