Hi, I know folks here are not lawyers or police, but this is not a hot idea. Poster this flyer below would be committing defamation

You would be committing libel if you posted that poster. Now maybe, you want to commit civil disobedience or you figure that there's no real risk, but you should know that as the poster is right now, it would be libelous and open you up to a potential lawsuit.

And the reason the poster is libelous is the simple fact that neither Tony Podesta or John Podesta are wanted by the police. That is simply false. They would be in no fear of arrest if they walked into Scotland Yard or any police station in Portugal. And the way you labelled the photos and the sketches while cute would not be a defense. It would be an admission that you knew John and Tony Podesta are not wanted by the police

You are right that is why we are now discussing poster ideas and voting on them so we can all avoid libel and any potential legal action against us at https://voat.co/v/pizzagateawareness

you are wrong however about it being libelous if that poster just had WANTED instead of Wanted by police. 100% legal.

poster should be more informative but yes images are very powerful. Thats why we are putting together the greatest pizzagate mainstream meme arsenal of all time and voting on it at https://voat.co/v/pizzagateawareness

Wanted by Police was also unidiomatic.

But you're not correct that just having WANTED would make it legal. Lots of real Wanted posters including Washgington, DC just have WANTED as their headline.

They have Wanted, the crime and the reward in large type. See here http://media.nbcwashington.com/images/620*349/WRC_0000000016900688_1200x675_819920451686.jpg

The top right has a DC logo and in pretty small type they have MPD, but you have to look for it.

Also it makes no sense to direct them to this sub. You should direct to particular page.
