Courier Post Forum Ban

[SAdams]

When I woke up this morning a message was left on my answering machine from a person who stated that they were from somewhere in Gloucester County, and that they had followed my research. He/she stated, in this message, that they used my name (SAdams) in a Courier Post forum with bad results. This is what happened to he/she within an hour of their post. They stated when this person attempted to re-log into the C-P forum, this is the message he/she received.

Gee, wonder what's going on? Appears to be someone is very, very uncomfortable when someone mentions SAdams.

Advice to everyone: Do not refer to SAdams in any other forums or posts outside this forum. I don't want anyone to get banned and lose their constitutional rights to free speech. I guess I'm the bad guy at C-P too.

It's all getting interesting folks.

That is really scary. Did the person ask the webmaster for "more information"? I'd really like to know what happened, but there probably wouldn't be a real answer.

When I was banned from nj.com, someone said that it was obvious that someone had a "serious agenda."

Well, people like that don't realize that there are people like us who just get madder and madder, and dig in our heels even more. Just hope we don't all end up like Bhutto! (HAHAHAHA)

If I subscribed to the CP, I'd cancel that, too, but I don't, so I can't.

By the way -- if this isn't proof that our media is biased, and has totally lost its objectivity and journalistic integrity, I don't know what is!!!!!!!

Gee, the Courier-Post isn't even one of the NJ.com Affiliates.

According to the NJ.com web site there are 16 of them:

The Star-Ledger, The Times, Trenton, The Jersey Journal, El Nuevo Group, Gloucester Co. Times, The Express-Times, Bridgeton News, Today's Sunbeam, Salem, Hunterdon County Democrat, The Reporter, Somerset, The Warren Reporter, Independent Press, Suburban News, Cranford Chronicle, Record-Press, and Horse News

Whoever reads the posts seems to do a pretty thorough job. It's really ironic that newspapers seem to be the ones preventing free speech. I wonder, since they remove posts and ban any nickname that mentions pennjersey forums, is it because they can't control us here and they want control...

Of course, I'm sure any hint at controlling the newspapers would get the ACLU, news reports and who knows whatelse in a tizzy. Unless it's on their forum, then they would just delete it.

The creepy thing is that they called your phone number.

I'm permanently banned it seems and they removed almost all of my posts. I don't know why.

Anyway, put them in the 10 ring SAdams!

It's not creepy that they called my phone number. I started an organization to bring to light the GEMS issue called Citizens Against a Radioactive Environment (CARE). I was President of this organization but was kicked out by a founding member. (Hint: Now the Mayor of the Township who by the way got helped elected through Vote Environment, the Environmental PAC who was supposed to help our group bring to light the GEMS issue). All know who I am on NJ.com. So it wasn't creepy to me. Many are scared to speak out. I even get letters from some but don't give names with information. Isn't that sad?

Oh by the way, had a great time down at the range. Enjoyed it immensely! Did real good. Around a lot of nice people who take their Second Amendment seriously and are responsible gun owners.

Is there skeet shooting anywhere around here?

That's the only post with a reference to "sadams", unless they removed it.

Gee, is that all it takes to get you banned?

"Amazing as SAdams would say. Welcome to New Jokesey."

[Pineygirl]

Impressive! SAdams, was that the only reference to your name?

If it was, it's really, really getting goose-bumpy.

OK, let's just stipulate for a second that you're nothing more than a nut-case (I don't believe that, I'm just playing here). What would be the point of removing your posts and banning you? Someone could just come on and post that you're the town looney, and "we all know about her and she's been committed five times, yada-yada."

But the fact that they're taking you so seriously means you're not a nut-job. Therefore, you're scaring them and they're reacting.

And that's the scariest part of all.

Let's see what happens.

SAdams, do you mind if I mention your nickname? "Amazing as SAdams would say. Welcome to New Jokesey." I think I can edit the post.

I had a thought... since flower's post referred to terrorism, could it be that some dolt thought SAdams was not Sam Adams but Saddam spelled wrong with an s at the end?

[SAdams]

With the way these formalities are in a panic, anything is feasible. They have no ethics. It's been this way for a long time. It just has not been out there in the light as recently as it is now. I don't know what's it about. All I know is that something serious is going on for them to take these steps. And people who read and post at C-P know who SAdams is as well. This could have possibly, now that I think of it, have to do with the "Green File" reference on this forum and the connection with a reporter who used to work for C-P and now works as the spokesperson for the New Jersey Department of Environmental Proliferation.

The only think I care about is that no one loses their freedom of speech when they reference SAdams. As for Flower, I hope he/she gets back on. It seems as though he/she has struck a nerve also. Maybe it has to do with homeland security and the lack of it here and in our Country. Maybe that's it. I truly don't know. And as for the reference of Homeland security, I proudly wear my NRA sweatshirt that states "Second Amendment, The ORIGINAL Homeland Security". I don't that that would enact them to do this. I just think it's a continuation of them keeping the true facts away from the people.

Remember Norcross's strategy: Divide and conquer!

I added the reference, just a test to see if I get banned.

BTW, I'm a NRA lifetime member. I grew up in a house with guns (my dad collected them) and I started target shooting when I was about 12. Haven't gone to a range in years, though - too many other things (work, family, etc) keep me busy.

The next day:
Hey, it's been over 24 hours and I haven't been banned (more) anywhere! Perhaps the banners were home recovering from the superbowl? I wonder if they have a quota?
