(Dec. 5) - The stepfather of one of three 8-year-old boys who were murdered in 1993 is suing Natalie Maines for defamation over comments she allegedly made at a rally earlier this year in support of the men -- dubbed the "West Memphis Three" -- who were convicted of the crime.
The complaint claims that at the rally, Maines told a "false and reckless claim that [the plaintiff] committed the murders of the three boys." Get the Full Story @ The Boot

Natalie, you're an un-american jackass. I hope you have to "pony-up" for defamation of character. It's a shame that Bush couldn't sue you for the same thing.

IF THEY DONT LIKE OUR POLICIES LEAVE. maybe she thinks more of her country than her career.....................maybe she thinks imprisoning young men she believes are innocent is worth a second look.....yeah she does speak out against things she thinks are wrong....how does that make her or the dixie chicks unamerican.......and i really dont get how anyone who thinks differently than you is unamerican or untalented....

Dixie Chicks.... A name offensive to both blacks and women........Years ago an Ex GF asked me to dub a dixie chick CD... In the next 8 hours my computer broke, my dog died, I got 2 flat tires, my hot water tank started leaking (8 months old) 911 happened and my coffee maker caught on fire. Damn these girls are evil.

Just another loser looking to get rich off a celebrity. It was also a public rally. Did this loser seek to sue everybody else there? Nope. Because this loser wants $$$$$. Plain and simple. There's nothing wrong with the Dixie Chicks. They are as American as anybody else and have never done anything wrong (Not now nor in 2003) So cry the rest of us a river you big babies...........

There was absolutely NO EVIDENCE against the men who are serving time in prison for murdering those boys in Arkansas. All they were guilty of was dressing and acting different and being poor and unable to adequately defend themselves. The most likely murderer is Brach's stepfather. He was high all the time from taking his son's Ritalin. As soon as he heard that they discovered bite marks on his stepson's body he went and had all of his teeth pulled so they wouldn't have a comparison. His wife, (Stephen's mother), mysteriously died a year later. He had her immediately cremated. He led the police to the exact location where the boys were found. How much more proof do you need? Those boys to men that are sitting in the jail are there for one reason, paranoia. A paranoid town who allowed their religious bigotry to get in the way found them guilty of something they didn't do.

Isn't there a little false advertising going on here? Where in this film clip does Natalie accuse anybody of committing the murders? Yet the links to the clip claim to show her making the statement. This man is just going after the deep pockets of Maines hoping to make a little free cash.By the way, the Dixie Chicks are true patriots in the best sense of the word. What's patriotic about self-righteously spouting the unthinking, knee jerk status quo that everybody wanted to hear the way Toby Keith did? Natalie Maines spoke up for what she thought was right the way a true patriot should. (And it turned out that she was right. I know, that just burns some of the moronic flag waving idiots out there. But if you are going to wave the flag, make it mean something. Waving the flag doesn't mean a thing if a person can't speak his mind.) Bunch of hypocrites, waving the flag and singing Glory, Glory, Hallelujah to keep people from hearing the truth.
