[Vision2020] It's not "cyberstalking" unless you harass someone,

Believe me, I'm human to a fault and then some; as a matter of fact, I'm occasionally even a real snot.  As I've said before, my faith -- would you feel better if I call it a "personal belief system"? -- requires that be kind and truthful.  It doesn't require that I always act nice.You're right, of course, in that "slander" as a legal term hasn't been proved in court.  I would have had to prove an absolute, direct, tangible loss -- for example, of income for my business (I don't have one, though), or if I could prove that I lost an election because of something he said.  As my attorney said, the only missing is the one thing I'd need.  But really, Gary, how do you ever prove that someone voted one way because of a particular reason or not?  Now, I know that a few folks will crow gleefully, "Aha!  THAT'S why she didn't run for reelection!  Gotcha!"  But, alas -- I was very clear why I didn't run, and a subsequent medical diagnosis proved that it was a good decision for me to make at the time.However, the fact that Dale has lied about me in print on his blog twice, and has further refused to acknowledge my attempts to correct him, to apologize, or to acknowledge his error, is indisputable.  Not that you care.  But he should, and so should the good Christian men with whom he serves at Christ Church.  That he doesn't neither surprises nor dismays me, though.  I may be my brother's keeper, but I ain't his pastor.keelyFrom: jampot at adelphia.netTo: kjajmix1 at msn.com; deco at moscow.com; vision2020 at moscow.comSubject: Re: [Vision2020] It's not "cyberstalking" unless you harass someone,Date: Sat, 5 May 2007 14:17:02 -0700








Keely, the remarks I made with regard to Rose's blog were 
quoted verbatim from mail that she sent to me on the subject. I took no 
editorial license, just straight from the horses mouth. (note the quotation 
marks)
 
Slander, being a legal term, would be easy for you to 
prove to me by showing me the judgment that the court rendered in your favor. 
Baring that its just a disagreement concerning the facts. Snide and nasty are in 
the eye of the beholder. Being mocked is something big girls simply deal with. 
If you're going to have an opinion and attempt to inflict it on the world you 
can expect for people to take exception. Are you trying to get me and the rest 
of the fine folks here on the V to believe that you have never displayed any of 
the qualities that you accuse Dale of? Never been a little snarky, a little 
mean? Never fudged the facts to present your position in its most favorable 
light? Don't even bother to answer, I'm sure we all know. You're human, despite 
your attempts to have us believe otherwise.

  Ummm, hey?  Gary?  Rose's blog says she allows 
  comments.  Just not bigoted ones.  She gets to decide.Also, 
  while we're on topic here, I can assure you, as someone slandered and mocked 
  by Dale Courtney quite regularly over the last four years, his is not about 
  news with a modicum of commentary.  It's just nasty and snide, with a 
  modicum of respect for actual facts.keely

    My goodness, Wayne all those years of bottled 
    up spleen are certainly making themselves apparent in today's posting aren't 
    they? (what is it now, 101? You don't look a day over 98 but you are a 
    testament to the notion that old and grumpy do go hand in hand) Lets address 
    your little hissy fit in the order that you excreted it.
     
    You take me to task for the 
    sentence:
     
    
    "Apparently it's more fun 
    to simply broadcast your irrefutable wisdom to the world and not have to 
    deal with the unpleasantness of actual debate."
     
    Mr. Courtney's blog is a news/items of 
    interest site with a modicum of commentary tossed in on the side. Not 
    screeds and lengthy personnel political rants. A greatly appreciated aspect 
    to his using this format is that items of interest to him  are not 
    directed to and clogging up the greater groups inbox unlike certain others 
    who shall remain nameless.
     
    In my memory of Dale's posts to the V he did a 
    fine job of expressing and defending his view points, as did Rose. The 
    difference was that Dale was the lone mongoose in the viper pit and Rose 
    sang with the choir.  I perfectly understand how being the minority 
    voice can become tiresome and, eventually, not worth the effort. In 
    conversations I have had with Dale I have done my best, sorry as it is, to 
    convince and encourage him to rejoin the fray. Lord knows I would 
    enjoy an additional conservative voice here to help sing the 
    counterpoint to the rest of ya'lls dreary dirge. Do I have "distain and 
    censure" for Rose and her new endeavor? Not hardly, I'm not wild about the 
    fact that it doesn't allow for comments (as Dale's does) but I have been 
    assured that this is but a temporary thing and will change "soon." I have 
    been informed that comments must fall within "appropriate parameters" and 
    this IS a type of censorship I'm not particularly fond of. I truly fail 
    to see how anything I have posted might be construed as being in favor of 
    limiting anyone's free expression. You seem to be laboring under the 
    erroneous and fatuous assumption that Rose and I are enemies of 
    some sort. Nothing could be further from the truth. We get on rather well, 
    all things considered and I wish her nothing but the best in 
    her latest whimsy and I hope that it doesn't suffer the same 
    ignoble fate that lil' Joannie's did.
     
    Whether I have "exhibited yourself for all to 
    see as a phony" is for others to decide. What I have been trying to express 
    is my contention that more light (and heat) is shed in an unmediated, 
    unrestrained setting and that it's the venue that I, personally prefer (even 
    if it means having to endure silly fonts & unrestrained use of 
    color) for hashing out the topics de jour as opposed to having to listen 
    (read) someone hold forth ad nauseum.
     
    Now hows about you have yourself a nice little 
    nap and try and get a little more fiber in your diet and see if your cranky 
    and constipated outlook don't take a remarkable turn for the better. At your 
    advanced age you shouldn't get so agitated.

      Well, Gary,
       
      I am surprised that you have the stupidity to mention and to champion 
      Dale Courtney's web-blots so soon after you wrote the following about Rose 
      Huskey and others:
       
      "Apparently it's more fun to simply broadcast 
      your irrefutable wisdom to the world and not have to deal with the 
      unpleasantness of actual debate."
       
      Are you too busy playing with your keys to see that Courtney runs his 
      own web-blots in part because he was not able to effectively defend his 
      positions on V 2020, and so that he may remove comments that he doesn't 
      like, or remove comments that point out where he either misquotes, quotes 
      out of context, or quotes incompletely to give the wrong impression.  
      It's all right for Dale Courtney, but not for Rose Huskey?
       
      Further, you pretended a few days ago to be staunchly anti-censorship 
      and a true defender of freedom of speech  "Censorship sucks" were your words.  Now you 
      express disdain and censure for those who dare, like your hero 
      Courtney, to express themselves in a blog - a decidedly 
      anti-free-expression position on your part.
       
      You sir, have just exhibited yourself for all to see as a phony, 
      whose writings express a desire to control what others say and do almost 
      as much as do the cultmaster's!

      I know I'm probably going to regret this but 
      my curiosity is hopelessly piqued. Just exactly what action did you take 
      that would serve as a shining example for others to emulate? Is it the 
      thinly veiled vulgarities in your post? Is it maintaining a hate web site 
      against a small local protestant congregation? Is it endlessly posting of 
      news tidbits that you think should be of interest to others? Is it your 
      tireless and constant monitoring of Dale Courtney's web site? I'd 
      really like to know what it is so I could thank you properly for your 
      ongoing good works. (once their identified)

        You keep 
        submitting gutless threats.  Is that all there is to you?  My 
        guess is “Yes”.
         
        I am going to 
        repeat a comment I made to you a long time ago:
         
        “SH*T OR GET 
        THE HELL OFF THE POT!”
         
        Loosely 
        translated that means:  Be a FRIGGIN’ man for once in your 
        spineless, ignorantly childish life!  Crawl out from under that 
        rock of yours and DO SOMETHING.  Either take action or SHUT the EFF 
        UP!
         
        I have set an 
        example for you to follow when I took action in the past (and will 
        continue to do so in the future).
