I think there's middle ground between lawyering up and doing nothing. You can get a lawyer to write up a cease-and-desist letter. There's a good chance they'll take it down to avoid any problems. That's assuming Roosh doesn't want this publicity.

Maybe any of the guys with formal legal training can chime in on this.

If the article I linked above is any indication, we won't get them to stop through the legal system. We'll get them to stop by laughing at them and mocking them.

One of the things that hasn't been mentioned is that while the SPLC has been irrelevant to this point in the PUA-Manosphere, it has MANY enemies in the Conservative-Libertarian-Sphere who have been waiting for decades to go after them. Roosh et al may have by accident given them the perfect opportunity to humiliate the SPLC in the press.

I would say sue for defamation, but the publicity is likely worth way more than the trouble.

Damn. I regret all the pics I put up on the forum. Fuck it though.

The SPLC description of Roosh's site had me cracking up:

RooshV
Roosh Vörek is a Maryland-raised PUA (“pick up artist”) whose specialty is sex with foreign women; his blog is a sales vehicle for his books like Bang: The Pick Up Bible and Bang Iceland: How to Sleep With Icelandic Women in Iceland, which one Icelandic feminist group described as a “rape guide.” Vörek likes to talk about his many “notches” (seductions) and such things as “American cunts who I want to hate fuck.” He adds: “I’ll be the first to admit that many of my bangs in the United States were hate fucks. The masculine attitude and lack of care these women put into their style or hair irritated me, so I made it a point to fuck them and never call again.”

Shit's getting a little too hot for the Roosh name. Might be time to corn-row that hair, shave your beard down to a 90s-style goatee (or thin-beard), and legally change your name.

Years ago when I started blogging, if I knew that my writing about getting laid would get my put on some hate list by a civil rights organization, I would have stayed anonymous. Too late now. I will be sacrificed.

It's not too late to go back and remove the pics and videos of you from the blog and Youtube. Also, I'm pretty sure that your address in Maryland is displayed when somebody buys one of your books. Or it could be a P.O Box...?

That's to bad Roosh, but respectable.

It is like Christmas morning for me to think of you on The View in a suit dropping nuclear bombs on hamsters throughout the country. Imagine the YouTube views. I know you could benefit from the book sales. Shit, I just bought another one of your books today.

I wager if you consult with an attorney and send a cease and desist letter, and higher a publicist in the States, you could get a lot of airtime without the costly litigation. Just think of all the guys living quiet lives of desperation you could reach and sell more books in the process.

Banana

Plus, you get to shame the SPLC.

I’d rather be far right, than far wrong!

For all of the emotions going around about this today, let's not forget how fucking legit Roosh is now. It's not everyday you get labeled anything by a historic, national organization.

So let me get this straight...

Far right-wing white power skinsheads and the Stormfront bulletin board want to get Roosh.. and now the far left wing minority and feminist power SPLC wants to go after him too. You can't fucking win in this world! You can't make this kind of shit up! It's some kind of dystopian novel, like a bad dream. This would be totally fucking comical if it wasn't for the fact it seriously has some power to fuck with his life and prospects.

Kind of ironic to have both the SPLC and white supremacists target him, isn't it. It's like some kind of weird curse or twilight zone episode.

If I were the obese slightly overweight woman running this group, and I had just targeted the manosphere and described them as misogynists, I would generate look for evidence that vindicates my claims.

What better way than for a rape accusation against one of the men who runs one of these sites?

Roosh, beware the honeypot. Look at what happened to Julian Assange. Take down your photos. Consider recording your sexual activity.

This is what happens when activist groups run out of steam with their initial cause. These groups get going on a real issue to start with, and once it becomes popular they start raking in contributions and government funding to support the cause. The organization becomes large, and employs lots of rotund women with B.A.s in Sociology. Unfortunately for them, having the issue become popular tends to...well...solve the issue. Racism has been discredited in all but the fringes of society, and the activist groups fighting racism are down to what amounts to scraps, i.e. getting in a tizzy over some retard using the n-word on the radio. Or using the word "retard", for that matter. But the activist group needs to keep going, so they have to find a new societal ill to latch onto, although worrying about Turkish men coming after our womenfolk is about 500 years too late if you ask me.

If anyone still wonders why I don't post my pictures online.

(Hencredible?)

Yep.

All my dating related testimony and commentary will be under "Commander Shepard."

No way would I bring this stuff or views on feminism to the public life.

I'd risk being black listed.

I've canned so many friendships (and missed out on feminist/protest pussy) because of my "sexist" commentary on facebook.

Then again, it was my fault. I should have known better. Many of my friends were green party activists at he time.

Only time you will see CS's mug is if you meet him in real life under covert circumstances (lol).

Good thing my handle is held by millions of video gamers.

The ending of ME3 almost made me cry......

Man I'm trying to still get my head wrapped around this. So far it looks like the SPLC was already struggling with their reputation, and this may be the nail in the coffin. They are getting no love for their decision. I high doubt uncle sam will get anywhere around it.

You know, it's funny. This is a self-improvement site. We help each other out. We workout, eat right, learn other languages, and doing so gives us access to a better class of women. And this is why feminists attack us. They want us to remain fat and stupid. It's all about control.

This shit wouldn't have flown 30 years ago. Shit, 20 years from now, unless something drastic happens, we are going to be in a world of shit.
