Wrong in numbers
Arrington is hardly the first American to refuse to participate in UK libel proceedings. See, for instance, Rachel Ehrenfeld whose book about terrorist funding was not even sold in the UK. In response, the New York senate passed a law protecting against foreign libel judgments.

A *law* was passed specifically to protect the type of response Arrington made.

Maybe this case will cause the same thing to happen in the Californian senate, that should be fun.
