Default paul truong's great mistake - but sam slipped too

It went further than that. In one post, Marcus asked "Sam Sloan, did
you threaten to kill me?" and the FSS responded, "Yes I did".


You need to understand that MR is "at war" with... everyone
and everything; in this context, a threat of death is just an
everyday part of war; if captured alive, MR could conceivably
be sent to Guantanamo in Cuba, held indefinitely and even
tortured (i.e. forced to play blitz against Fritz, losing *every*
game, or even shown pictures of SS, stark naked).

If the threat was real, instead of a hack-job law suit, perhaps
*the Feds* should determine who is /that/ Fake Sloan and charge
him/her with assault? But it is hard to imagine them going to
such lengths when MR is obviously still alive; it seems that
either the threat was not a serious one, or else it was made by
an incompetent duffer of a murderer; I suspect the former. In
fact, this strongly reminds me of the many threats made by
certain posers in this forum. (Did I say posers? I of course
meant to type "posters"!)
