I'll save you the "digging" and copy in what he wrote:
Mike wrote:
I'm probably missing something, but it doesn't seem to me to be a
legal threat if one editor notifies another editor that the latter's
participation may raise UCMJ or regulations problems. This is not the
same thing as threatening to sue. Nor does it strike me as a legal
threat to note that some members of the armed forces may be compelled
by UCMJ or related regulation to report on-wiki activity that looks
like a serviceman (or servicewoman) violating regulation or policy.
To me, a legal threat would look something like this: "If you don't do
X (or cease doing Y), then I'm going to report you to the authorities
and get you in trouble with your CO." It would *not* look like
this: "I'm just letting you know that your participation in this way
may create problems for you under the UCMJ or regulations, especially
because some of us are obligated by that legal framework to report
apparent violations."
My interpretation of at least part of the above is:
A politely worded warning of a legal obligation to report is not
considered a legal threat, as it is distinct from a 'threat to sue.'
I previously wrote:
I'm satisfied with what Mike Godwin wrote, which is that if politely
issued it is wrongheaded to construe policy as prohibiting warnings of
a legal obligation.
I stand by the interpretation I made in both sentences, and I'm
disappointed that you decided I was intentionally misrepresenting
Mike's opinion without actually bothering to take the time to look up
what he wrote.
