This is pretty entertaining too:

How someone could think he is an honest, intelligent person is beyond me. He's a bad cartoon.
If someone was being threatened with legal action, why would they back off if they had evidence?

They would do that to avoid an expensive, time-consuming lawsuit.
I take it that you don't know how the legal system works.
Oh right. So it's shitty evidence.They would do that to avoid an expensive, time-consuming frivolous lawsuit.

Haha yes! I didn't expect anyone to recognize Gena. My girlfriend was born in Azerbaijan and moved to Canada when she was six. She showed me the cartoon years ago. I tease her about Cheburashka, but Gena is great. Something about a pipe-smoking, chess-playing crocodile just speaks to me. I've also seen the Russian versions of the popular fairy tales. It's interesting seeing the different animation styles.And you are a good one, Atticus - do you know that the picture you chose as your avatar is a Soviet cartoon character, Crocodile Gena (he is a kind and intelligent crocodile... and a friend of another Soviet cartoon character Cheburashka)? :D
Pleasant to see that Soviet animation is known beyond post-Soviet zone. :)
Oh right. So it's shitty evidence.

Shitty evidence doesn't mean the person or persons did not do the crime
I was talking about criminal cases in general, I'm agnostic on Pizzagate. There are many instances perhaps more than people believe when guilty people commit criminal acts and get off free because of "shitty" evidence and vice versa. Another interesting tidbit I read yesterday was how flawed DNA tests areBaccarat, you still fail to grasp the sheer absurdity of the whole Pizzagate situation. Any potentially valid "conspiracy theory" is, essentially, a criminal investigation; as any such investigation, it starts with an actual, undeniable criminal act - such as assasination of president or an attack on high-rise buildings. What is debatable, and should be accessed in a rational way during the investigative process, is who, why and how has commited the crime.
In the case of Pizzagate, we do not have any actual crime to start with - what we have is a bunch of wildly illogical non sequiturs derived from the material which has no signs of criminality. All "signs" were lately imagined into it, irrationally, by the investigators.
In fact, the way of thinking demonstrated by Pizzagaters remind me of a free association technique employed by psychoanalysts and mystics - but psychoanalysts and mystics (sane and self-critical ones, at least) understand that the results derived with this technique are not literally true (they can still contain very important metaphoric truths - that's why the technique is used in the first place). Yet Pizzagaters mistakes their metaphoric associative flow for the literal veridical fact; more, they use this flow as a basis of accusation and attack on the people whom they imagined as "guilty".
This - to put it plain and harsh - borders on a literal insanity. Or a literal witch-hunt, in a style of a bad old Holy Inquisition.
