This ruling is interesting.
Does the First Amendment jurisprudence generelly require strict scrutiny in
civil as it does in criminal action?
In other words, does a plaintiff in a civil case have to prove that the
statement was intended to incite imminent lawless action
to recover damages like the goverment in a criminal case?
