What if he had a dream in which Ma was doing Clintion? Of course
he has no control of his dream. Could be express his dream or some
would say, inspiration, in a painting? Is this smearing?

In his own dreaming world, he can dream of all kinds of insulting
imagination about Ma ,
but once he expressively publish his dream without evidence,
it is amounted to insult and smear Mr Ma in public.
Therefore, the painter should been sent to jail for deliberately
hurting another person's reputation.
Let us say he is incapable of express his dream in words. And he can
only
express his dream in painting. Would that make any difference?
Another question is when is a violation a violation.
Is he violation the law the moment he had painted the picture?
Or only when he releases the drawing to the public?
1. If producing one copy is bad, how come producing 10,000 is not bad.
2a. If the painter has a dream first, is his painting not reporting
his dream?
2b. Let us say, A had a dream of Ma doing Clinton, he told B who
paints
and published the picture in a report. Any difference?
I am sure you understand what several netters have meant here.
On smearing.
If he graft the image of Ma and Clinton on a live porn, it is clear
that he
misrepresents or smears. But this is not the case. This is a drawing
and
he did not say Ma had sex with Clinton. It is akin to "If Ma and
Clintion
are to have sex, it will be like this."
What is the difference between a person reporting someone's thought
and another person reporting his own thought to the public?
Now, the drawing has uglified one's reputation so it is against the
law, it does not have to be the video or real picture... I believe
that's general consensus.
Japan's problem is not about expressing. Rather it is about hiding
something.
To be sure, Japan entered China. But Japan also did a lot of bad
things while
inside China. Japan is yet to acknowledge the latter.

"Uglified" one's reputation. Is this your criteria concerning the
boundary between
free and non-free speech? You talk about free speech a lot. I would
appreciate if
you answer my free speech questions with some thoughts. If you think
my
question is not appropriate, please explain.
Now, Japanese right wing group also claimed that in order to liberate
E Asia from western imperialism, the killing in China was necessay,
that's also their "opinion", to you, "free speech"?
First of all, is smearing a matter of intention? That is, he intends
to
smear Ma or Clinton with the pictures. Let us assume that he did have
the intention. at what point the crime of smearing is achieved? If
the
picture in itself is smearing, how come newspaper reproducing the
pictuie is not smearing?
> Now, Japanese right wing group also claimed that in order to liberate

Not a free speech issue.
Sure they can say that. The issue is not they said. But what the
Japanese
military had done on behalf of the Japanese people during the invasion
and
occupation.
In Taiwan, it is common practice for Taiwan media to "mosaic" the
private parts (sex organs) or indecent area to prevent annoyance to
general public (as you can see from the link you provided). Other than
that, newspapers printing the drawing (with "mosaic") to let readers
know what's going on is fine.
Of course.
But you had siad the following: "This idiot has
violated the law so he may have to go to jail or pay fine."
You also invoked the general consenus as on your side.
So I thought you know the answer.

Assuming he had violated the law as you said, the issue is whether
the
drawing the picture is the crime or the distribution of the picture is
the
crime.
As for the trial, leave it to the judge. But based on my experience
and knowledge, that idiot probably will get 6 month jail term but he
may be able to pay fine for his jail term too.
Next up LT Lee will try to claim that being arrested for yelling
"fire!" in a crowded theater is also a violation of free speech.

Please tell more about the Taiwan law on your mind and why such
law is not in conflict with the principle of free speech.
As you can see, in Taiwan free speech is under the law and smearing is
NOT part of free speech.
Now LT Lee will say that maybe LTH had a dream that James Soong was
playing mah jong :-)
Apples and oranges.
1. LTH was a political figure whose words carried weight.
In contrast, the painter is a nobody. No one will care what he drew
until it
made the news.
2. The scenario depicted by LTH against Soong was plausible to likely.
And
it could materially affect the election. That is, there could be real
damage to
Soong and/or to Taiwan. Hence Taiwan has a stake in precluidng such
irresponsible speech.
Ma having sex with Clinton is impossible. No one will believe that.
Such
picture only reveals the painter's abnormality.

You simply can not insult people without evidence.
In America, people say "Motherfucker Bush" and now
"Motherfucker Obama" all the time. They are certainly
insulting people without evidence. None of these people
are prosecuted. In Taiwan, calling Ma a "Clintonfucker"
with a drawing is a crime. Why? Taiwan's free speech is
different from America's free speech. No?
Same for this cartoonist, it was county legislators calling the
police, so the police arrested that idiot. Otherwise, the police will
not take any action. It’s different from murder case.
Understand or still want to argue? Haha!
Thank you for point out one significant difference which I forgot to
include in earlier post.
In this case, the paritner was arrested and presumably prosecuted
as a criminal case. It is not considered a civil lawsuit like the one
between Soong and LTH.
Try naked and wake on the street and see what will happen to you.
1. You are changing your line.
2. Prosecuting him under the vice law is ridiculous given that there
are more explicit pornographic material readily available over the
internet. No. The only reason he was prosecuted is because Ma, or
Clinton, was depicted in the painting.. Disrepecting Ma or Clination
is not allowed. It is political motivated.
This cartoonist got caught so he has been charged with "indecency". If
Ma decided to file libel suit against him, he will have to pay damage
to Ma's reputation, this part is same as James Soong vs LTH.
