Neighbors, I've talked with several of you about the various forms of intimidation that you've experienced at the hands of the civic association leaders over the years. Rumors, intimidation at your job, and vandalism are very serious. Both Ad hominem and straw man tactics attack individuals directly instead of supporting one's position. Why do some of these leaders go so pathalogically low? Tony is a special jackass, but the stories and my own experience show me that others go deep into the slime too! Do they believe they are invincible liars? I believe the motivation is a frightening craving for the illusion of power, that pushed Tony with his serious lies. He could get into trouble for such potentially damaging lies. These tactics do not win arguments. Nor are they normal reactions to just having losing arguments or unfair desires for middle class privilege! Would you ever think of telling lies like Tony did about me to win an argument??? Can you imagine the type of harm that Mr. West's lies (straw man technique)could do? People on the list know that West is a jackass, at this point. But read again what West wrote and think of all the possible harm such pathalogical lying could do. (e.g. One of the FOCP board members and a friend of mine has known my girlfriend for years in a professional setting. And people around the world can access our public listserv unlike UC Neighbors.) Here is what the leader of the community, spokesperson and researcher for FOCP, UCD committee man, Tony West, the jackass, posted: "Why do you hate improvement in Clark Pk, the neighborhood across from your residence, Glenn? In the past, you have complained it's harder to find whores in your front yard because Clark Pk has been improved. I respect your outspoken sexual preferences; we all know now what you want from your neighbors now. But I can live without whores in Clark Park - without passing judgement on other folks' sexual activity. And I think you can do it as well. A man of the world like yourself can find other places to purchase commercial sex. You don't need to get this service in Clark Park. You say you're thinking of taking your trade somewhere else; please do. -- Tony West" ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
