I've had discussions with libertarians about "freedom of speech issues" about being able to say anything you please, true or not. My contention is that's fine... But you are libel for anything that your speech causes. Yelling fire in a crowded theater and causing someone death or injury you should be held responsible for your actions. The NRA fits this to a "T".
