The idea of suing a website might seem abhorrent to advocates of free speech on the internet, but maybe one case shows that it can be justified?

Whitefish Woman's Lawsuit Over 'Daily Stormer' Harassment Proceeding

The Missoulian is reporting [archive] that a Whitefish woman's lawsuit against a Nazi website is going forward.

Montana Public Radio reports that Andrew Anglin, publisher of The Daily Stormer, is being sued by an individual the website targeted because of the mother of Richard Spencer:

The Daily Stormer called for readers to harass her and her family over her dealings with the mother of white nationalist Richard Spencer.

Northwestern Montana, however, has had some experience in dealing with neo-Nazis in the neighborhood.

    You bitch, jmorris!!! NEVER, ever, again attack my mother! You cretin! You neo-nazi sympathizing and collaborating scum! Do you not think it is White Dick Spencer's mom's fault that her boy grew up to be a Hitler-wanna-be? If you could go back in time, and couldn't land on the right temporal co-ordinates to kill Hitler, but you could take out his mom, before she ever ovulated, would it be the ethical thing to do? Thirty million lives, and that is only counting the Greater Whitefish area.
