nor have i made a legal threat first i am not among those three people who participated in that visit to the blm protest i have never known any of these people i would not be the offended party in any case i've never even lived in minnesota or been there in over years or so i made an airplane connection through minneapolis in about as i vaguely recall i am not saying there will be any sort of legal proceeding i am merely saying that to cite this claim heard the n word risks running afoul of being libel i think wp rules allow us to express concern that the cite of a vague assertion that somebody heard the n word is problematic from a wp blp standpoint if multiple blm protestors claim that they heard one of the white visitors say the n word and it was cited from some reliable source that would probably change my opinion can you see why this would be a different situation
