I had a search around and can't find any evidence of legal threats at the moment, but I will keep checking.
Bad taste maybe. (I laughed though).
Just FYI, a website and it's owners and anyone else connected with it CAN land in trouble for content not present on the website itself (i.e. links), and most responsible webmasters (and moderators!) would sooner err on the side of caution when controversial stuff is posted, as there can be very real risks of costly and time consuming legal action, even though it may lead to nothing.
So don't be surprised if any controversial stuff is deleted without explanation. And this is fact - not really up for discussion...
