The lawyers get paid by our tax dollars and the defendant goes bust. The Supreme Court should rip these tribunals a new one. Another waste of taxpayer money: non-elected political reach-around-appointments performing witch-hunts with no published code of conduct and no accountability. Can we spend some taxpayer money where its needed? What ever happened to an apology and two sides admitting the acted in poor taste? Guy Earle has his freedom of speech and I support him. The fact that the lesbians were drinking for 7 hours never seems to make the content of the story. Nor does Michael Richards story ever tell the fact that the black hecklers repeatedly called him cracker. Where is my protected group?

This show is billed as "The Edgiest in town". You don't go to such a show, plop yourself down front stage, start heckling and expect a sermon in reply. Either these people are incredibly naive or else they were there for the purpose of generating a HRC complaint. Exactly right, Anne B. This show is billed as “The Edgiest in town”.

Leonard? Barry Humphries/Edna Everage?) And wiseguys in the audience who try to get smart with the guy onstage usually end up getting a good public smackdown. Don't tell me these gals are such pampered innocents (or idiots) that they didn't know this. But nightclub humor has always been rough and insulting (Don Rickles, anyone? Jack E. Leonard?
