What I know, however, is that supporters of the original ethcoin can attack the hf ethcoin in a court of law.
So let them attack the hard fork in a court of law. They will lose and waste their money. In a way it would be good for them to take it to court. First, they would have to reveal how they are damaged by the HF in order to show standing. Then they would need to make their bogus claim that the ETH that was taken was not stolen and to do that they will have to get the owners of those ETH to say the person who took them had their permission.
When they lose their case in court, the issue will be settled and there will be no more claims of this bogus ETH classic. People supporting this their have unstated motives. Something tells me they won't want that to come out in a court of law.
