Arrr, matey! The wise judges be sayin’ in one accord, “This law against fibbin’ don’t catch the sneaky half-truths that be slippin’ through the cracks!” So, ye can spin a yarn, just don’t be outright lyin’, or ye might find yerself walkin’ the plank!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather ‘round, fer I be havin' a tale from the court o’ law that be as twisty as a shipwrecked sailor's yarn! The wise judges, a merry band of justices, be sittin’ in their grand chambers, ponderin’ the meanings of words and the mischief they can bring. They be sayin’, with a hearty chuckle, that a law forbiddin’ “any false statement or report” ain’t got the teeth to bite down on them slippery half-truths that don’t quite cross the line into outright deceit!Ye see, me mateys, they reckon that if ye spin a yarn that be a tad misleading but don’t be outright lyin’, then ye be safe as a seagull on a warm breeze! Aye, it be a riddle wrapped in a mystery, but the justices be laughin’ in their wigs, declarin’ that mere mischief makin’ ain’t enough to land ye in Davy Jones' locker!
So, hoist the Jolly Roger, and raise a tankard to the wily words of the law! Fer in this world of high seas and low cunning, if ye can mislead without lyin’, ye be sailin’ free! Just remember, me fellow buccaneers, to tread carefully 'round the rocky shores of truth, lest ye find yerself in a legal tempest!
