A hypothetical for those nuts about assault!!
My good buddy over at ironlemon posted this item about a Jimmy Eat World Heckler. I want you all to figure out if this is assault and if that litigous mother fucking bass player from Jimmy has a claim against Cooter. Cuz Fish Lips sure as hell didn't have a leg to stand on when he tried to get Tom Bernard thrown out of the house.
The ride back to the hotel was provided by a man named Randy Cooter, who told us the story of the development of his infamy. It seems he spent a good amount of time obsessively heckling, hounding and antagonizing the band Jimmy Eat World, to the point of getting letters from their lawyers and physical threats from the band members and fans. He also started rumors of the band's anti-Semitic nature, which he knew were not true, and organized protests at their shows. I am not doing his story justice here; this was no simple heckling, this was an intense assault. He gave me a check for $1 to give to Jim Adkins as an apology for any inconvenience.
Get to work, Children!!!

Unbeknownst to Ironlemon, his humorous post re: “cooter” coupled with your query forced this recovering big-mouth lawyer into possible relapse. Anonymous invested great effort and took extreme measures, e.g. verbal warnings, withholding recreational truth-serums, etc. to ensure a legal discussion-free practice space. Consequently, Ironlemon’s use of “intense” to describe an assault is clear evidence that aforesaid efforts were not in vain; the lemon is uncontaminated. Had you asked about dignitary torts, injunctive remedies, or disorderly conduct, I may have fallen off the wagon.
hey whiskydick, zach lind here from jimmy eat world. thanks for the mention and the very adult commentary regarding the band and it's band members. maybe next you'll start calling us "poopy pants". we can only hope. never has our band had a claim against anyone because of "heckling" nor have we ever sued anyone for any reason at all. also, i do believe that in order to be called "litigous", the person accused would have actually had to sue someone. but i would assume you'd understand that, being in law school and all.
