| + | ==Streetbeasts Files Frivolous Lawsuit Over Article== | ||
| + | Recently, we wrote an article detailing the history and reputation of Streetbeasts, a disreputable kit-car manufacturer. In response, Streetbeasts has tried to silence us with a frivolous lawsuit. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Over the years, we've stood up to plenty of mainstream hotrodding industry companies. This time, it's no different -- Streetbeasts think they can silence us by bullying us out of our free speech. They're wrong. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We've refused to take down the article, and we're rallying our 70,000+ members to help us defend against the frivolous lawsuit by contributing to our legal defense fund. If you want to lend a hand, and stick up for free speech among hotrodders, you can help out by PayPal'ing a non-deductible contribution to freespeech@hotrodders.com.
