Have been following this lawsuit and the rantings and threats of Bob, Friedman’s partner. They are trying to intimidate anyone giving them a hard time about the money they split up never doing anything promised. I was very touched to see that post by someone knowing Jack many years ago and all the good work Jack had done for people.

I will be sending a couple hundred, I think if we get behind this a Federal Lawsuit is just what the doctor ordered.

“We responded to it, providing Guenther the same email address we had provided earlier.”

I love the subtle digs. ;-)

I’m in.

I don’t endorse every thing that Jack has done but the bully, disparage, whine, bully, whine cycle from Larry is getting old and Jack deserves to be represented.

The Electronic Freedom Foundation does pro bono work defending online freedoms. Jack may want to consult them.

Also, Ray Beckerman out of NYC has defended people against RIAA lawsuits and may take an interest or be able to refer Jack to someone who might take an interest.

I’m pretty sure we can get this done, for goodness sakes, Bob Guenther raised $120K plus, surely we can pony up $1500 (it’ll cost more than that I’m sure, but it’s a start)

Gregg: Post the paypal address when you have it. I’m in for more than a six pack and less than dinner for four at Ruth’s Cris. :)

I have set up a PayPal account for jack. When he accepts it (and removes the password so I no longer have any access to it) I will post it here for those who wish to help.

As far as I’m concerned, this is a donation, and while Jack may desire to pay back every penny, I think we should all agree to only give an amount we don’t need or expect to be repaid, and if he does, well, he does…..

Okay?

Jack, I’d suggest you set up a PayPal account. And also, take donations..at least say so, and if you are able to pay people back, feel free, but you’re not getting into any obligations by doing it that way. For me, I don’t care if I ever get it back, the Bill of Rights is worth a hundred to me. I’m sure we can raise what you need, and you’re still free to pay back all of it if you’re so inclined, but honestly, I think you’ll find that there are some people who will chip in because it’s the right thing to do, some will pitch in just to move the case along and I know a few think it’s worth a bit just to stick it to Larry and Bob. (tell me it ain’t true, I dare ya!)

Anyhow, that’s my advice. What I send is not something I want back and if your principles dictate paying me back, send it along to a charity and we’re even…..
